A robber came to my house yesterday.

He had on a mask. He had on two slippers. He had a big bag.

I stopped him and said, “What are you doing?”

“I am taking your food,” said the robber.

“Don’t you take my food or I will call mycat,” I said.

He left and did not take my food. I don’t think that he wanted to meet up with my cat.
