I was waiting for papa and mama to come home so I could cook dinner for me and my brothers and sisters but that night they didn't come home. I was scared and worried when finally a mama burst through the door crying. She told us that papa had finally had found a job but on the first day someone said that he had stolen some things from the hardware store and that he wouldn't be able to come out for 10 years un less we payed 2,000 dollars which we don't have any money at all only 50. I am worried an scared.
