It was a candy bar

Tweet

I was in the office working and I noticed a woman standing at the customer service desk with two little girls talking to the assistant manager, I was being nosey so I went out to see what was going on. The youngest of the girls was holding a white chocolate kit Kat candy bar and the assistant manager was talking sooo sweet to her but let me know she had stolen the candy bar and her mom/ grandma made her come back inside and tell us she stole it. The assistant manager looked at me and said " she has money to pay for it what did I think?" The little girl was swallowing hard and her eyes were watering but she wasn't crying, I knew she was scared, however, the assistant manager was way to sweet so I said "well " and paused moment then continued with " I will let you pay for the candy bar this time but if you steal again I'll have to call the police." In a stern voice but not mean. The lady told her to get in line and pay for it. When they left I told the assistant manager, you're to sweet, she told me, " I know and I'm glad you came out." Maybe the little girl won't steal anymore. Usually I deal with adults stealing not children. Ever had to do that before?
