He got out of bed and opened the door very quietly. The window was open. A man was standing near it and looking in the dark drawers. His grandmother kept her money there! He thought quickly. Yes, the radio! He turned it on and a man’s voice filled the room. The thief felt scared and jumped onto the window. Then he jumped down two floors to the ground. He gave a shout.
