One evening two young men were walking in the street together. They tried to find a chance to steal something. The clock struck twelve. Most of people went to bed. Quietly they came to a house. There were no lights in the house and it seemed that everyone in the house had fallen asleep. Standing at the front door gate, one said in English in a low voice, “You wait here. I’ll go round to the back door and then get into the house…” Suddenly out of the house ran a dog, barking at them. The two men were very frightened and ran away as fast as they could.
