The Worn Car

I was in my moms worn matte red car as we pulled up to the grocery store.I went with them(my brother,sister,and mom) and found an orange cat and brought it back.My mom kept finding extra groceries and basically stealing them and bringing them back.Inside the grocery store looked like Food4Less but outside it looked like Superior. A lean pale man with dirty blonde colored hair glowed as the red headlight bounced off his skin giving him an ominouse look.I imediately looked around the car to identify the senerio. As he came close enough to the car he tried keys on the car as I had locked the doors. I looked around and found a thin metal peice,thin but hard to break.I grabbed it and stuck it through the window,jamming the locked doors.The doors cant be opened now and he realized that as he found the right key.He walked away without a word.As everyone came I took off the small metal and unlocked the doors.No one noticed the cat laying in the middle back seat as they brought in groceries.My mom kept going on about sale and the food she found and I tried making conversation with her about the man but it kept going back to her groceries.I finally yelled "MOM, I HAVE SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO TELL YOU." as we got near the garage from the Viva apartments,I explained how theres a man with keys to our car who tried breaking in and knows how we look most likely so we should all be careful as we dont know what his motive is.She brushes it off as nothing.
