The Con
language
( April 30, 2020)
I agreed to a shady deal with my neighbor because I was absolutely desperate. It was a bargain connived to change my trajectory in life and provide me with an opportunity to make something of myself. I broke the whole idea down into five easy steps…
Step one: Get close to Collin Franzen.
Step two: Snoop through his parent’s house and find where they keep their valuables.
Step three: Report back to Derek, my criminally-inclined neighbor.
Step four: Split the proceeds after he robs the place.
Step five: Graduate high school and skip town.
An easy way to make some guilt-free money. Like a modern-day Robin Hood, right?
Wrong.
Oh, so very wrong.
I forgot to account for unforeseen variables that would almost immediately create an extra step in my plan. Like…
Step one-point-five: Fall in love with Collin Franzen; the golden-boy quarterback with the gem-colored eyes, a quick wit, and a huge heart.
The Con that was supposed to go off without a hitch has become more complicated than I expected.
