My Nei,ghbor ca,lled at 3.am

My neighbor called at 3 a.m. He yelled, “Wake up!

There’s a man in your backyard!” Terrified, I ran to the back but found no one. The next day, my dad’s Rolex had vanished. Worried, my neighbor and I installed security cams in our homes.

Months later, the police visited me. My blood ran cold when they revealed they had found my Rolex at my neighbor’s house. His son had been caught stealing from another home just a few blocks away.
It turned out the father and son were in on it together. While the dad distracted me with his call, his son had already snuck inside, grabbed the watch from my room, and slipped out without me noticing. I was stunned. After that, I could never trust anyone again, especially since I had known this neighbor for over 25 years and had considered him a friend.
