The woman was always
proud of the fact she remembered to lock her car, but on this day she was in a
hurry, her tired limbs and foggy mind let slip the thoughts of locking the
door.
The next morning she
arose to start her car so it was warm for her drive to class. She paid no
attention to the empty backseat, forgetting her jackets that usually sat in the
back seat. She slowly realized what happened as her phone charger and an old
GPS were missing. She then remembered a new shirt, not a week old, that she was
waiting to return in the back seat that was missing as well.
She took inventory of
her car, assessing the damages. Fortunately there was no damage, the burglar
had found a way in without damaging the car.
Regardless of her
relief, the woman still felt violated as a stranger had rifled through her
belongings. She wondered how someone could go through with such a thing. She
also wondered if this were just a one-time occurrence or if her car was checked
multiple times a week to see if it were unlocked. Since the incident, the woman
has double checked to make sure her car was locked.
