Section 5:

What happened to me this morning was so unbelievable! I was walking down the street when a woman stopped in front of me and asked me for directions to the nearest bank. At that moment, I saw my Bill across the street. I called out to him and asked him to wait for me. Luckily for me, he did. Bill saw everything: While I was talking to the woman, a pickpocket put his hand into my backpack. Bill started to walk away. I thought he didn’t want to wait for me, but I was wrong. When Bill saw the pickpocket he went to call the police. They arrived immediately. The police arrested the woman and the pickpocket. What an experience!
