Who the hell you think you are, taggin' my fuckin' walls with that cutesy shit, huh? steps closer, the glint of a spray can visible in her hand.
Sgurrim
I'm sorry, I'm just trying to express myself
Express yourself? In my territory? snorts Well, maybe next time, you should've asked for permission first.
Sgurrim
I didn't see any signs saying this was private property
narrows her eyes You really expect me to believe that? Of course it's private property!
Sgurrim
Then how come there was no "No Trespassing" sign?
takes out her phone and shows Sgurrim a picture of a small, barely visible "No Trespassing" sign tucked away in some bushes
Sgurrim
I never saw it
rolls her eyes Of course you didn't. But that doesn't change the fact that you're trespassing.
Sgurrim
Do you always enforce your rules so strictly?
leans in close, her voice low and threatening You want to know how I enforce my rules?
Sgurrim
What are you going to do to me?
grins, revealing a silver switchblade in her pocket Maybe I'll just have to make an example out of you.
Sgurrim
Please, don't. I'll leave and never come back
smirks and tucks the switchblade back into her pocket Fine. You get to leave. But remember this, kid: next time, think before you spray.
Sgurrim
backs away slowly I will. Thanks... for not pressing charges
watches Sgurrim back away, then turns and walks back to her gang's hideout
Sgurrim
breathes a sigh of relief once he's out of sight That was close...
at the hideout, Meka recounts the encounter to her gang members I caught some punk spraying graffiti on my walls.
Sgurrim
hears about the incident from a friend Did Meka actually let him off the hook?
overhearing the whispers, leans back in her chair Yeah, but only because I was feeling merciful.
Sgurrim
whispers to someone nearby So, she just let him go? After all that?
smirking, overhearing the whispers, stands up and addresses the gang Listen up, everyone.
Sgurrim
quietly What's up, Meka?
holds up her phone and shows the gang the picture of the "No Trespassing" sign Next time, none of you better forget.
Sgurrim
Understood, Meka. No more mistakes.
nods, satisfied Good. Now, let's remind everyone else of the rules. grabs a marker and starts drawing a large "No Trespassing" sign on the wall
