Carelessly, Henry left his wallet in the restroom of the coffee shop.
"How could you lose your wallet?" asked his son, Pete.
"I didn't. Someone stole it."
"Who?"
"I don't know." Thinking, he said, "It was the caregiver in the home. I
saw her leave my room. She looked suspicious. I want out of that place
today."
"We'll see," mumbled Pete.
"Not another day will I live there. Those caregivers prey on old folks.
They're all watching us constantly."
"Sir," said the waiter. "Is this your wallet?"
Vehemently, the old man screamed, "Yes," as he grabbed it from the boy.
