Dear member of family, I am writing to you because there is a secret that I have been keeping all these years. I have come to terms with it and feel appropriate to express to you now: you see, many years ago in my very early teen days, I got caught stealing an item from a store. The item only cost about 3 bucks, but the manager called the police and had me interrogated. They were so mean to me, which they probably had the right, I started crying because I was so upset! They tried calling my parents but they were obviously out of town. I gave them their work number and the workers confirmed that since I was a minor they had to let me go or that is what they decided and told me they would call my parents later. I was so worried about my parents finding out I worried all weekend and found out they never called my parents and let me slide. I learned my lesson though!
