{F-2-B}

You reach into the tank to pick up the little fish, when someone suddenly says, “Somebody’s always watching!”

Startled, you pull your hand back out, splashing water all over yourself, and notice a man standing nearby, and watching you disapprovingly. To your horror, you then realize that the little fish is flopping around on the floor at your feet. The man reaches down, and gently scoops up the struggling little fish, and returns him to his tank.

“I’m sorry, but you are clearly not ready for the responsibility of owning a fish,” the man says. “I’m going to have to ask you to leave my store.”

He escorts you out the door, and you stand on the sidewalk looking dejectedly at the pet shop. Your mom soon finds out what happened, and you realize you will not be getting a pet any time soon.
