You can't be surprised if something stolen doesn't work. Or you can be surprised, but you cannot be upset. You have no rights in this scenario. I took the milk off the neighbor's front steps and cursed her name when it was spoiled. It ruined my coffee, ruined my cereal.
I wasn't supposed to steal the milk. She was supposed to be there. I was supposed to be caught in the act. This is how conversations are started. If I could only make her laugh.
But I saw that car parked out front and knew her morning schedule would be off. I wasn't going to be caught doing anything. Except throwing out my breakfast.
