Chronicles of a tricked sister

Well, I have to admit that I was taken in the other day. I really shouldn't have been but I was. My brothers were walking some dogs a couple days ago when they came across watermelon lying in the gutter. Now, I'm not sure about you, but when I see a watermelon in the gutter, I don't think of ways to trick my siblings into eating some of it. I walk calmly past it. My brothers, however, decided to kick (yes kick) it home and try to get me to eat some. When they got it home, they set it in front of the door and then rang the doorbell. One of them was inside and announced that he would 'get the door.' They brought it in and washed it off (it had a gash in it however.) Then they came in and told me there was some "yummy" watermelon that they had "found." When I asked them where they had gotten it, they answered, "Oh, didn't you hear the doorbell? We found it in front of the door" Seeing that a piece of the watermelon had been eaten (supposedly anyway) I cut a piece and took a bite. It wasn't bad but I heard the boys laughing in the other room so I thought something might be up. Sure enough they told me to read their "buzz" post and there was the story. Needless to say, I did not finish my watermelon. I suppose the moral of this story is to never eat watermelon that was "found" in front of a door.
