At the mall, the woman paying in front of me appeared to be very poor. She was purchasing a $7 skirt. As she was leaving, the alarm sounded, and security approached her. She looked terrified and turned red. She went on: “I’m not a thief, I just bought a shirt!” But the alarm continued to ring, and security requested permission to search her bag.

The woman began to stress out, and as they opened the bag, they discovered a piece of jewelry with the tag still attached. Suddenly, a weeping teenage schoolgirl approached security. Everyone was astounded when she said, “Sir, this woman has been shopping like everyone else, and she has done nothing wrong.” My friend and I were playing truth or dare, and she challenged me to put the jewelry in this lady’s handbag.

I’m so sorry!” Of course, the security guards were really unhappy. He apologized to the mom and chastised the girls briefly, but then let them go. Later, I encountered the females at the mall and asked them what was going on. The girl admitted, “I lied to security.” There was no dare game, and we definitely did not put the jewels in her purse. But we didn’t want this poor lady to go to jail, and we knew we wouldn’t get in any serious problems because we were just 14, so we decided to help her!” I was left dumbfounded.
