A little girl went to a police station to confess a serious crime, but what she said left the officer completely shocked.

She nodded.

Her lower lip quivered.

“I… I did something bad,” she whispered.

“Okay,” the officer replied calmly. “You can tell me. That’s what I’m here for.”

She swallowed hard.

“And… will you put me in jail?” she asked, her voice shaking.

“That depends,” he said softly. “What happened?”

That was all it took. The tears came rushing again.
