Sinister stranger and Ruby ring
#SinisterStranger

He was a renowned thief, a gold snatcher, aspiring to become underworld Don. in a day he snatched 50 gold ornaments, from the pedestrian mostly women who adorned it. Southern part of India most of the homes are hoarder's of gold, gold ornaments, gold coins and even gold biscuits. Investors of gold also can apply home loans.
He was a chief of thiefs, hair oiled up nicely and skin shinning after bathe in oil, he wore black jacket and slim fit jeans so that he can escape easily from the grip of his victims hand.
Every morning from 6am to 9am he would stroll around the parks, to weigh the neighborhood around with rich people working in town. he targeted people who lived in single homes, women above 50s who could not walk with strong bones anymore. old men who accompanied their old wives would be his second treat to his eyes. young women who had long hairs left loose was also the easy peas in pulling out chain.
you know people here go for a walk with the gold chains, be it casual morning or evening walk, throughout the day they sleep and bath with the gold ornaments.This man had no chain not even a single piece of ornaments on himself, he crossed his eyes on the gold ring in the coffee shop that was held in the ring finger of a lady who had came from a foreign land.
the ring was huge n enormous, made of rich fragments of gold and had a Ruby stone in middle.She was rubbing her thumb over it unknowingly while talking to someone on the call.He head to her table and sat on the empty chair besides her. He knew the Abcd of English and he managed to speak with her.He said "Madam I'm a regular customer here, never seen you around,are you new to this place"
she smiled and said " well yes" . meanwhile her coffee arrived and he pulled up the conversation further talking about coffee beans varieties in southern Asia, the different Aroma and it's combination flavour. she dint notice the greed in his eyes.he also shook her hand and weighted the ring simultaneously to mark the prize of the same ring.he shook her hand and said "nice to meet you, hope to meet you again"
he knew what to do .
Next day and day after he came to the same coffee shop but she was not to be seen.
he kept visiting until the weekend, she showed up and he pats his pocket over his right hips with his right hands. he goes to the attender grabs the coffee and comes to her table dropping it on her hands, mistakenly.she stares at him for a sec then she she's him grabbing the tissue paper to clean up her hands,but in doing so he pulls out the ring drops it under table and replaces it with artificial ring under the table and gets away with real one placing it in his right pockets. he utters " I'm so sorry" and then fleets away with a phone call.
