Looking the well dressed man up and down the first thing I can think of to do is distract him. "Well hello kind sir I'm hoping to maybe get a fresh start. Would you happen to know your way out of this marvellous marketplace?" I chime up as the gentleman flashes a smirk. As he starts pointing his shiny leather covered fingers i think to myself " Well those look rather expensive for a young lad." While pouting, fluttering my luscious lashes , blinking my ice blue eyes … I slowly take a step closer admiring his over polished boots, Swooping my well trained hands into his cape pockets swiftly grabbing his money pouch-all while he's finishing his heavily over descriptive directions- " Then just head west two streets over from there."
Once we said our final goodbyes I stride away wiggling my hips side to side hoping to keep his attention on me a little longer so that he doesn't realise the emptiness of his right pocket. I reach a long dirty cobblestone alleyway covered in moss and ivy. Reaching into my skirt I pull out the little velvet money pouch with the gold tie. " Fifty whole pieces of gold? Who was that man" I thought to myself before a little guilt came over me. Then again after all who could blame me the worlds done me so dirty its just instinct at this point
