Both men wearing a black ski mask exited the Bank of America on a rainy day
with half million dollars.
They got into the car.
“You kidding me?” John who was the mastermind of the robbery asked his accomplice.
“What?” Michael responded.
“A freaking mini van?”
“It´s a car.”
“A slow one idiot.” John said a bit irritated.
As they started to pull out of the parking lot they heard a cry from the back seat. Both men
looked at each other with eyes as big as plates. They slowly turned and saw a baby sitting
there crying his eyes out.
“Michael, when you robbed this piece of crap you really didn´t check that there was a
small human being in the back? First rule of car jack, make sure there is nobody inside and less
off all, a baby!!”
“Just drive!”Michael shouted.
“Can´t do my friend, not with a kid.”
They looked outside the soaked front window of the car and the blurry lights of police cars where visible.
The gig was up.
Stay Frosty gents and gentesses.
Dummies!! G:)
I like dummies, makes life fun sometimes
Haha, you rob half a million but get blind sided by a baby? Idiots! :p
Criminals are not the brightest…..
Nice Charly very funny 😊😊😊
Thank you Diana
Thank goodness they had enough moral backbone to not do anything to harm the baby, even giving up a half million dollars for the baby’s safety. Yes, they are pretty dumb, but I think that decision was rather smart! Great story Charly! I enjoyed reading this and thank you so much for participating in Flash Fiction for Aspiring Writers Challenge!
Was my pleasure, looking forward to next weeks challenge.
The baby is an add-on for the dummies 😀
Seems like it, just big criminal babies
The baby out smarted them! Hehe
That´s why I hate babies, they´re always getting in the middle of something…..
I know! How dare they! Can’t they take care of themselves… Hehe : )
I once told a 2 year old “grow up will you!!!” And I don´t know why people stared at me with a strange face or mad face
Gosh! Some people can be so rude!
: )
What´s wrong with people….
God, Thank goodness for kind souls like you who walk on this earth ❤️
People should be grateful and kiss my hand, and specially woman…well they should faint every time I pass by them
I hear that they do.. You are a Rock Star!
Bon Jovi has nothing on me
Nope! They don’t!
You’re neck and neck with Bret Michaels : ). Love him ❤️
That long blond hair always wearing a bandana or cowboy hat….he does resembles me actually
Me too :
Hehe
Dying ❤️
No death, living?
Whew! I called 911 and they revived me!
:-). Thanks for worrying about me 🙂
I´m an angel
😳😳😇😇
Foiled by a baby. 🙂 Good fic there Charly! ❤
Babies are always meddling around where they shouldn´t be
With apologies to W. C. Fields, I love babies. Boiled, broiled, or in a stew!
ha! In a stew much better
I love how John is happy to rob a bank but stealing a car with a baby inside is too much for him! A fun story. 🙂
Thank you, the dichotomy of man. Fun dummies.
See, now there’s a situation where a “Baby On Board” sticker might actually have made a difference. 🙂
Ha! I should have put that into the story. One of the characters saying to the other “For crying out loud! You didn´t see the freaking sticker on the bumper? The one that said Baby on board!!!”
It least it wasn’t old enough to say ‘are we there yet?’!
