"All right! Everybody be cool, and nobody gets hurt!" Annie yelled as they all walked into the store, with face mask on, each having a toy gun.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a robbery" Carmella said following what they planned.

"Im gonna need you go all get on the ground" Annie shouted.

"Get your cell phones out of your pockets and keep your hands where i can see em" Annie shouted as they all separated.

"All, right good. Now i need you to get your manager up here" Annie yelled as no one did anything.

"I said you need to get a manager up here right now" Annie tried again.

"hey, where's yalls boss at?" Ruby asked.

Carmella sighed, rolling her eyes.

"We better get a manager up here right now or i will start capping people. And im not even joking!" She yelled waving the toy gun around.

"You the manager" Beth asked as a girl came up from the register.

"Over there" She pointed as they looked over seeing a man all wormy and squirmy trying to get away.

"hey! hey! you! squirmy! hello" Carmella said going over to him.

"Are you in charge here" She asked as Annie came over.

"Yes. yes. i am"  he stuttered.

"Okay, then, you listen to me.  You're gonna put on your big boy panties, and tell everyone to stay calm" She said as Beth came over.

"Everybody stay calm" He yelled looking at some people.

"Now, you're gonna take my friend here to the cash vault" Carmella said to him.

When he did nothing Beth came closer "Move it before i shoot your face off! Lets go! Now! Now! Now!" She yelled as he got up going to the back as Annie followed him.

"What is taking so long" Ruby asked as Carmella shrugged and Beth walked over to this girl and her mom.

"Hi" she whispered as Carmella and Ruby looked at each other and then at Beth.

"how old are you" Beth asked as Carmella sighed shaking her head.

"Let me guess, Six? Do you watch Doc McStuffins" Beth asked as Carmella coughed trying to catch Beth's attention.

"uh, yeah, we, um, used to watch it in the big house" Ruby said.

"yeah, incase one of us got shot and we needed to do medical things" Carmella rambled as it made no sense.


"Holy crap" Ruby mumbled once she noticed the security guard was back, "We gotta go. We gotta go! We gotta go!" she yelled catching the two girls attention once the security guard dropped his food and began to run into the store

"Oh, shit!" Beth yelled as the three began to run towards the back, "Lets go!"

"Hurry!"

"I got it!" Annie yelled pushing a cart, the three girls ran into the cart turning it around, "We gotta go!"

"What?" Annie asked confused as Beth took over pushing the car, "Go! Go! Go! Go, go, go!" Carmella yelled pushing the three

"Gotta go! We've gotta go!" Ruby yelled as they ran to the back door


"Beth. Hello?" Annie questioned looking at her, "Are you okay in there? What's your name?" Ruby added

"I robbed a grocery store" she said emotionless, "Whos the Secretary of State?" Carmella asked passing a water over to her

"I robbed a grocery store" she repeated, "Who is Secretary of State?" Ruby asked looking at Camille who sighed and Annie shrugged continuing to count the money

"We robbed a grocery store"

"Oh, we totally did" Ruby smiled excitedly, "And we actually got away with it" Annie smiled a little

"Like some smooth criminals" Ruby said as they both began to laugh, "Uh, how much did we get?" Carmella asked looking at Annie

" Please tell me we got the 40" she added, "Uh... We got it" Annie smiled a little holding up the money, the three girls sighed in relief, "Thank you, God" Ruby said putting her hands together

"We got more then the 40 grand" Annie spoke up, "How much more?" Beth asked looking at her

Annie set the money down before grabbing one of the bags and dumping it out on the table, and then another bag, and another, and another, and then one more, and then adding the stack of money that fell out of the bag

All three girls looked at the huge pile of money on the table, mouth age, and wide eyed, Ruby sighed before slowly falling down


"What in the hell!" Ruby yelled, Annie had set out all the money and counted it, Beth was stressing pacing back and forth, and Camille was sitting at the table 

"How is this even possible?" Beth asked pointing at the money, "Count it again"

"I counted it righ-", "Count it again!" Ruby yelled cutting Annie off

"You said there would be 40" Beth shouted looking at her sister, "i said, "30, give or take" I guess it was give" Annie smiled making Carmella laugh a little

"Why does the grocery store even have this kind of money on hand?" Carmella asked confused, "Because its hella shady. I told you this was a bad idea" Ruby stressed 

"You guys are missing the point. We just won half a million dollars!"

"We didnt win anything" Ruby said looking at Annie as if she was crazy, "Half a mil, bitches!" Annie yelled smiling

"We didnt win it! We stole it! And maybe the cops dont follow up on $40,000. They damn sure follow up on half a million dollars" Ruby shouted, "Yes, Ruby, yell for the whole neighborhood to hear"

"What do we do?" Beth sighed, "Nothing. We divide it up and we sit on it, until we can come up with a way to get rid of it quietly. Without looking like, you know..."

"Criminal" Carmella spoke as Ruby nodded pointing at her, "Yeah"

Annie picked up a stack of money slowly, "Okay?" Ruby asked looking at her, "Yeah" she shrugged still holding the money as Ruby walked closer, "Okay"

"Okay" she repeated rolling her eyes as Annie walked closer


"Hi, baby" Carmella smiled as her and Beth walked into the house, "How are you" she smiled petting the dog

"You need to go potty? You need to peepee?" Beth asked as they made their way to the kitchen

"Nah, he's good" someone said as the two screamed as Beth dropped the bags in her hands

"We already took him out" he added as Carmella noticed the gun on the counter

"What do you want?"
