Feeling nervous
Sarah could hear the police sirens approaching from a distance, and her heart raced in her chest. Since she didn’t think she had done anything wrong, she couldn’t figure out why she was feeling so anxious. Although her grandma was the rightful owner of this jewelry, had she given a false impression about its true provenance?
Not getting away
Two policemen burst through the door. One more cop was present, but he was standing in front of the store, as Sarah would witness. Sarah was in no position to get out of this issue right now. She turned to face the officers as they strode to the counter and made demands that the woman turn over the jewelry.
