Story Starter: The gold coin

I started to think about what Mr. Terry had said:  " She has the keys to every door of the store" So I started to think.. If his girlfriend had every key to the doors of the store, she could have come at any moment of the night.  So, if she had a collection of jars and of coins, she surely wanted all kind of coins, including the gold coin. So I went to talk to Claire, and asked her: "Would you like to have the gold coin for your collection?" And she said yes, that she would love to. So I asked to  go to her house again, and see the collection again, so we went again, and looked carefully. I looked inside the jars, but there was nothing, only a strange smell. I thought it was a smell of some cleaning product, because she took very good care of the jars. So, I talked to my partner, Lancy, and we decided to ask something to Mr. Terry, and that was if we could put secret cameras inside the shop. And he said "Yes, of course, I would do anything to get my coin back" So we did, and they sat all night looking at a TV of the camera, and we started to fall asleep. Suddenly, we heared a noise of footsteps. We saw someone dressed in bLack comING in from the back door, and looked around. He, or she, went sooner to the jar where the coin was in. The theif took it in a bag and went back to the back door, closed it carefully and ran away.

We started to think, who had the keys? But, would Mr. Terry rob his own shop? That couldn't be, so we thought of someone else that could have the keys, and.. the only person who was left, was Mr. Terrys girlfriend.

Next day we went to the shop together.   Lancy and I saw, as in the video, that the jar was gone. Mr. Terry was about to faint. He couldn't believe this. He was desesperate, and wanted this to be only a dream. We told him to calm down a little bit, and luckily he did so. We went to Mr. Terry, again. We asked him "You said you have a girlfriend, right?" "Yes", he said. "And, could we know her name?" we continued. Then he said "Claire. She's an amazing girl. We have lots of fun together and, you know what? She has a jar and a coin collection! I have seen it. It's really beautiful."  So I looked at my partner with a face of amusement. We took Mr. Terry with us, and went directly to Claire's house. We went in without knocking on the door, and we saw her drinking a cup of coffee. Lancy shouted "We saw you, stealing the jar" We went to the room of the the jars and coins, and, there was the jar, and I put my hand inside, and I took something out, a round thing. We looked at it carefully, and it was the gold coin. Exactly in that minute we took Claire to the police station. She was going to stay there in jail for a couple of years. Mr. Terry took the keys from her, and he was very angry at her. He didn't even talk to Claire. So, the jar and the coin, went back to the store, and stood there, as everyday since that jar and that coin had been made.

The end.
