I want to write a 'book'

So today, I hung out with my good friend who is visiting from California. We met up, unsurprisingly, at a cafe here on campus. As soon as we sat down, she told me about how she got caught up in the 'law.' Apparently, she was caught stealing liqueur (the vodka, and tequila) from her local Costco. Yikes.

It got to the point where she had stolen 500+ dollars worth of alcohol that was then sold to her friends. Good business, poor execution. So anyway, the police inevitably got involved and her mom...well, was (and still is) furious. I'm not too sure why my friend went this far. Was she desperate for money? She comes from a pretty wealthy background, so that's certainly not it.

Or, frankly, she just likes getting drunk. Who knows? I didn't interrogate her like I probably should have.

I'm not sure how she stole that much alcohol without being noticed. She used her Mom's 60 dollar Costco membership, and hid behind 'old people,' so I think the employees there just assumed she was with her parents.

Regardless, I think it's a great story idea: a privileged, inconspicuous 17-year-old steals hundreds of dollars worth of hard liqueur from a local Costco that she sells to friends; is eventually caught, reflects her actions and herself as a human, and the reasons behind what she did. Perfect!

All in all, my friend is a good person. I just think she was (and maybe still is) confused. I'm surprised she isn't in in Juvie. Luh her though.
