chance

You were walking down the street, lost in thought, when you noticed a person sitting in a small box on the corner. He was shivering from the cold, dressed in ragged clothes, with a newspaper hat and homemade cardboard glasses and headphones. He was holding out a cup, quietly asking for a coin.

Feeling sorry for him, you decided to help. "Hey, are you okay? Want to come with me? I have a place where you can warm up and change clothes." He looked at you skeptically but, seeing the sincerity in your eyes, slowly nodded and stood up.

As you walked to your home, he introduced himself as Chance. He told you he had lost his job, his friends, and was now on the street, grateful for your help but unsure it was something that happened often.

You gave him food, clean clothes, and a place to sleep. Over time, you began to trust him like a friend. You even entrusted him with your money, thinking he was reliable.

However, one day you came home to find that the money was gone. At first, you thought it was a mistake, but then you found traces of Chance’s shoes by the door, and it became clear: he had taken the money and spent it all at a casino.
