“Carlos, I also need you to go through the… Are those diamonds?!” Catherine shrieked, her knowledge accumulated from reading page 3 of the morning paper furthering her horror.

“No, no, they…aren’t.” Carlos lied, lowering his eyes in shame.

“I’m ringing the police. You stay where you are!”

Arghhhhh why is that copy + pasting in a different font from the rest of it? Blarghh! So annoying.

I showed my teacher this much of it, and she said that she thinks I could end it there...

I think that she is concerned i'll write like, four more pages of this supposed-to-be-400-to-500-words-only short story and THEN hand it in. lols.

Hmm. What do you think? Should I leave it there or wrap it up somehow?
