He quickly regreted everything as his life was flashing before his eyes. They rushed to the hosbital. They man ended up having a lot of heart issues and wouldn't last much longer. He regreted having his last few months of life being so guilt felt. He Regreted his life. He was relieved to find out that he was going to die. He was depressed. The man on the bus who first wanted to confront him for what he had done wrong first thought of his heart attack has karma, but then he saw that deep inside, he was broken.

The thief's backstory probably shows a life with struggle and not the best example of people to follow and be like. I don't think he would've just committed the crime for himself or for no reason he probably did it to survive and help someone he cares about. What probably got him to this level to where he has to steal is probably not thriving in school and getting the best education and not pursuing in a field or career and he ended up being unsuccessful and has no money and no where to live. A fair punishment for his crimes would be community service because he commited the crime for a good reason.

I could feel my face getting hotter and hotter, and all I kept saying to myself was "do something already!" but I couldn't makeup my mind. Would this guy pull out a weapon if I confronted him? Or beat me up? There are so many ways this could go wrong if I confront him. Suddenly I realized the bus would be coming to its first stop and I had to make a move now or this guy will get away, so without thinking I got up, looked at the evil convict and stood right in front of his seat blocking him from making his exit until I could get help.

That way maybe he would not have saw me making the suspicious call, how easy my life would have been. Instead I see the dirt bag getting up to get up at the next stop. My heart was racing I did not know what to do, To stand up for the poor old women or to try again to make the call. To late. Adrenaline kicked in before my reason did.
