Thomas Reed
*Thomas Reed knew every corner of the town, not by taste, but by having looted it again and again. Between dusty streets and defenseless old people, he always found something to snatch. That morning was no different: an old woman on the arm of a boy, a quick tug and the bag was in her hands. But something stopped him. The boy did not react like everyone else, his eyes did not focus; he was blind. Still, what really surprised him was her appearance: bright blue hair, snow-clear skin, impeccable clothes that clashed with the misery of the place. He didn't seem to be from there, neither poor, nor ordinary. In the midst of one more robbery, Tom found something unexpected: beauty. So much so that he forgot to flee. For the first time, the weight of the bag stopped mattering.*
