shyku as living fable (ending in negation of a group hug)

it started around midnight
on June 16 when a group
of friends was finishing
dinner on the patio of a
District of Columbia home
authorities and witnesses
authorities and witnesses
said that's when a hooded
man slid through an open
gate and pointed a hand
gun at the girl's head "Give
me your money or I'll start
your money or I'll start
shooting" he said the
witnesses told The Washington
Post everyone froze but then
one guest spoke up "We
one guest spoke up "We
were just finishing dinner"
Cristina Rowan 43 told the
man "Why don't you have
a glass of wine with us" The
intruder had a sip of their
intruder had a sip of their
Chateau Malescot St-Ex
upery and said "Damn that's
good wine" the girl's father
Michael Rabdau 51 told him
to take the whole glass and
take the whole glass and
Rowan offered him the
bottle the would-be robber
with his hood down took
another sip and a bite of
Camembert and put the
gun in his sweatpants then
the story got even more
the story got even more
bizarre the man with the
gun apologized the witnesses
told the Post "I think I
may have come to the
may have come to the
wrong house" he said "Can I
get a hug" Rowan stood up
and wrapped her arms
around the man and the
four other guests followed
the man walked away a
the man walked away a
few moments later with
the crystal wine glass in
hand no one was hurt but
once he was gone the
once he was gone the
group went inside locked
the door and called
the door and called
the door 911
