Your little brother sells candy on weekends after the stores are closed - how enterprising!
And the neighbors plot a scheme to rob him.
"I called the cops!" - never mind nobody even has phones? Just, a "phonebox" - doesn't sound like the USA. :)
--How long ago was this? (No, no need to answer that!)

You are enterprising and amazing.
And a great story teller. That this actually happened makes it all the better.
Or not. It sets my teeth on edge. These thieves and assailants - keep taking 'em down!!!
