She stepped over the groaning man without giving him another
thought. He lay on the ground clutching his arm as she examined her reflection
in the glass of a store window before resuming walking. She checked her watch
and started walking faster, the sounds of pain growing muted behind her. She
felt a bit bad about breaking his wrist and his elbow; they probably wouldn’t
heal quite right. But that’s what you get for trying to rob someone dressed to
the nines on their way to a hot date.
She was already sitting down to dinner when the ambulance arrived.
