Short Story

One black, the other white, like the wrathful and worthy side of the same chessboard. Coming into the store every day since the beginning of summer. Manager offered only temporary or telephone support. A wide field of activity for young girls to explore.

They've been planning a heist since senior year. All the gory details of their leap to independence.

‘Wouldn't that be nice? Imagine if we could go to places. We could have regular customers, have a great start in life!’ said Amelia in a lackadaisical, confident voice, leaving no suspicion as to who was in charge.

‘How do we transport all this luggage? On our backs?’ Pelagia has always been the doubter.

‘Of course not, silly! We’ll hire someone. Or better, we will store here first, and when we sell something, we will ship from here!’ Amelia boasted.

The day before their departure, after buying all the tickets and planning the routes, the scammers combed the shop. Nothing left of the dream of high-end brands.

After that, the sisterhood followed the flow of another ordinary day as if nothing had happened except that they had to look for a new job due to lack of finances and bags.
