A BLOOD RED SKY
The alarm rang so loud and Dave rushed to put it off as the sound irritated him. He wanted to get more sleep but he knew better. He had an important task ahead of him and the earlier he got it done, the better.
He had gotten a tip about a rich woman who had expensive jewelries in the safe at her house. She stayed alone and was out of town for the weekend. Normally, he would have called his guys to come with him but he felt it was going to be an easy one besides, he didn't want to share the profit with anyone.
On getting there, it was very quiet and there was no sign of life and just as he had thought, he broke into the house without much difficulty,he was an expert with locks. He opened the safe although it took longer than he expected and within five minutes, he had the contents in his bag.
As he was about stepping out of the house, he noticed that the sky had turned blood red around the house. That was when it dawned on him that he had picked the wrong house to rob.
