Barbara was at home, watching Duck You Sucker. She was munching on some Cheetos. A knock was heard on her apartment door. She got up from her red, leather sofa, and opened the door. It was her neighbor, Margaret.
"You got any Diet Coke?" asked Margaret.
"Can't you go to the supermarket?" scoffed Barbara. "You always come here, and ask me to lend you some soda. I brought these sodas for myself. As a good neighbor, I am sure you would understand that."
"Just give me a Diet Coke!" demanded Margaret.
"Here!" said Barbara, giving Margaret a 2 liter Diet Coke.
"It's warm!" protested Margaret.
"I haven't had a chance to put it in the fridge," said Barbara.
"I think I owe you about 10 Diet Cokes, by month's end," said Margaret. With that, she left. Barbara was being taken advantage of. It wasn't her fault that Margaret didn't have a job.
Barbara would have to settle this matter with the police.

A/N Margaret shouldn't be asking for soda from Barbara like that. That's not okay at all. Based on a true story. Don't be a silent reader. Please leave feedback. Thanks.
