"Come back with my watermelon!" barked Jimmy, as he ran after Lucy.
"Sorry, but this is for my brother!" said Lucy, running away from Jimmy as fast as she could. Lucy and her brother, Michael, were homeless, and both of their parents died. Lucy was trying to make ends meet. Lucy and Michael lived on the streets in Brooklyn.
"I will call the cops on you!" warned Jimmy.
"I'm trying to look out for my brother, and myself!" Lucy shot back, still running. Lucy ran across the New York traffic, and it slowed Jimmy down, quite a bit. He gave up, and just went back home.
Lucy showed the melon to Michael. "If only we had a knife!" said Michael. "How are we gonna break this open?"
"Never thought of that!" said Lucy.
