Founded in 1758 and named in honor of British statesman William Pitt, Pittsburgh’s legacy is a rich one, from its infancy as a frontier village, to its current status as one of the nation’s leading industrial cities.

The Perfect Plan

I looked at the ground trying to rationalize our decision to steal the pastor’s car by reminding myself of the obvious: I liked her and she was out of my league. I couldn’t show up to that party in my dad’s Nova. If I wanted to get her attention, this was the best way to do it. Monica liked bad boys, not the kind of guys who stayed home all summer to mow lawns at the golf course. I was tired of being that guy, and the pastor’s Shelby would change all that. “She’s the only reason, Jason.” I said. “I want you to swear that you know what you’re doing.”

My Turn

I shifted my weight away from the briar patch, hoping someone would make a mistake soon. Knowing my little brother and sister especially, I expected one of them to give up any minute, most likely out of pure boredom. They weren’t like Philip and I. They didn’t let these competitions amongst the four of us completely and utterly consume them. They didn’t add rules to a game of kickball or stakes to a round of Frisbee to make it more “interesting,” and they didn’t set out to completely dominate the competition or taunt them mercilessly afterwards. If they even agreed to participate in the first place, it was safe to say that they didn’t really play to win. They were just there to have fun, and I was certain they’d never get used to the level of patience my older brother and I possessed for the sake of victory. After all, our bouts were legendary. I didn’t know anyone else who could stomach a four-hour game of RISK either. “This one’s mine.” I thought to myself. “It’s my turn this time.”

A Father's Request

“You get five thousand now, and five thousand once the job is done.”

His words echoed in my mind, the words of a broken, old man who had all but given up hope. His face weathered and bruised from years of hard labor, the man sat defeated, hunched over in his chair, eyes fixated on the fire that danced in the hearth in front of him. “It’s my life savings,” he added, poking the fire with a metal rod. “I have no doubt that it’s below your normal salary, but I’m asking for you to make an exception this time. She’s my daughter, the only child I have.”

A Stupid Idea

I looked at the ground to avoid telling my sister that she was ruining this, that we never wanted her to come along anyway. This was our idea. Ours. We knew how stupid it was, and we knew we’d probably get caught. We just didn’t care. It was as simple as that. “Relax.” I told her, “We talked about this already. It’s not like we’re gonna run all the way there. Bobby says he knows a secret way in.” I glanced up at my sister and realized her arms were crossed. “Seriously.” I added. “We’ll be fine. We talked about this stuff at Bobby’s house last night.”
