After an arduous trail, the
visitors reached their destination.
The quaint cottage on the hill
looked welcoming.

A beautiful lady answered the
door.
Her face matched their
intelligence-reports.
They were sure they would
finally get what they were looking for.
"Where are the diamonds?" they asked.
Not giving away her
nervousness, she confidently answered, "I don't have any."
"Really? We'll soon find
out!"
The officers started searching her home.

They looked everywhere, but there was no trace of the diamonds.
Had they nabbed the real jewel thief?
The cactus pot in the corner
held the secret they could not unravel.
100 words story for the Friday Fictioneers
I could not participate last week and thus I have used last week's image too in this week's story.
Do you think they will find the diamonds in the pot and arrest the lady who is the jewel thief?
Which is the best place to hide stolen diamonds?
Do share in the comments below.
A prickly problem! :-)
