The line to pay

From the moment she arrives at the department store, the woman who attends the make-up section of the place catches her attention.

Not because of her exuberant beauty, since she is slim and without the voluptuousness that many look for, but because of her captivating personality and beautiful face with blue eyes.

He makes his purchases quickly and stands in line to pay the sight in a state of delectation.

Minutes later she sees him and smiles.

She gets closer to where she is and her heart speeds up.

-Sir, he's standing on a fake tail made of mannequins.

The defense attorney stands up and says to the judge.

-I want impugn the accusation made against my client.

A murmur invades the compound.

His defendant has been captured after being recognized by a security camera stealing from a gentleman outside the subway station.

He has always declared himself innocent and known the identity of the thief, but has refused to reveal it.

However, the lawyer has managed to get his confession, convincing him to make it public.

-What are the reasons? -The judge asks.

-The culprit is his twin brother. -Responds.

Then he brings the evidence to the stand.
