Miss C is so cruel, she once stole a tricycle from a crippled kid!

When Miss C was 6 she had a classmate who contracted polio. Joseph was his name. He lived down the block from Miss C. Sometimes during class the teacher would have Joseph show us his progress at learning to walk with his crutches.

One day Miss C was sitting on her front porch when Joseph, who had a crush on Miss C, went riding by on his trike. Joseph yelled Miss C's name, as if to show off his trike skills. Of course those of us who were able bodied were way past the trike stage, but Joseph had small underdeveloped legs. Something about the situation aroused Miss C's predatory instincts. Perhaps she sensed weakness. Or maybe it was a future portent of how she would treat all men who loved her.

Miss C vaulted off the porch like a dog after a cat. She ran up to a stunned Joseph and pulled him off his trike. She put one knee on the trike and pushed it like a scooter down the sidewalk. Joseph lay on the sidewalk, helpless and screaming. Miss C's mom came flying out of the house and ran like a cheetah to catch Miss C. She snatched Miss C off of the trike and began to wallop her severely. She ordered Miss C to her room to await further punishment and returned the trike to Joseph.

Miss C was not sorry then, but she is certainly sorry now.
