“Did you see where he went? He stole my tablet!”
" Right over there on the corner. Hey, slug, do you know who you’re messing with? Stop!”
" Den, we will not catch him. You know what these street kids are crafty!”
" I turned my back for five minutes! Okay, tomorrow I’ll tell all of our people to follow the bastard.”
“Come on, it’s raining! Morning is wiser than evening.” Another scoundrel said.
The fifteen-year-old boy listened to their conversation, and he had in his hands the clipboard that he had so successfully stolen in the cafe. It’s common, before there were only mobile phones, but now it’s time to take the expensive trinkets. He can’t catch his breath, he’s hiding near the trash cans, and it stinks in here. It’s time to get out of here.

I want to leave this unfortunate place, but I hear a child crying. Have I lost my mind? It’s time to stop stealing. The impression was that the little kitten fell into the trash and can not get out. I don’t care, my stomach hurts. I didn’t eat for two days. I’ll sell this tablet at a flea market, and I’ll earn money. My stepmother threw me out on the street and sold my father’s house. I didn’t have any toys, but I just gave money to my friends. But when Elvira appeared in our house, life turned into hell. She’s a bitch, drove my father to his death, and me, because I’m a minor, she wanted to send to an orphanage. Understandably I’d rather be a street kid. At first, I tried to earn a living honestly. But one day I wasn’t paid, I freaked out and turned into a thief.
“Mummy!” A child’s cry turns into a whisper. I’m trying to find the baby, but it’s no use.
" I’m too cold!” The voice is somewhere nearby.
My patience starting to run out, I literally started turning over all the trash cans, there was no one there. And when I reached the last one, I saw a small child, or rather a girl with two pigtails. Her sad dark eyes looked to me, and she was holding some kind of knitted bunny. I lean close to this midget and made eye contact. She was trembling all over, and her bunny falls on the wet asphalt.
“What the hell are you whining about? I have a headache from your crying!”
" I want to eat and use the bathroom!” A little girl whispered.
“What? How can you want two things at the same time? Okay, you have a place to sleep, in the trash, someone threw the blanket away.”
“Wait for me!”
“You’re lisp even as a animal!” I touch her cheek, and I think she’s going to faint. It’s a good thing a scumbags aren’t back yet.
“When I’m worried, I don’t pronounce the letters well!”
“Where are your parents?” I asked her, and the rain is getting worse every second.
" They died in a fire...”
" How did you survive? How old are you?” I pick up her toy.
" Five. And you?” The little girl stopped shaking.
“I’m ten years older than you! Okay, you can’t come with me.”
" Don’t leave me, I want to eat.” A child begged.
" I’m hungry too, but unlike you, I’m not whining!”
" Wait!” The little girl shouted.
I turn around, at this moment the heart was cut out, the baby was unconscious. Heck! I picked her up. I go through the forest, where I lived in an abandoned house. After half an hour, the room was warm, and the baby’s cheeks turned pink.
" Take a bun, Pepi!”
“But my name is Alyona!” she protested.
" Don’t sass me, crybaby!” I ordered the child, as if she was my little sister.
