Nina worked at the local radio station and often had to work late at night. There were many cases of robbery being reported, so she joined self-defence classes. One night, Nina was on her way home after work. She had almost reached her parked car, when she heard footsteps behind her. As always, Nina had a powerful torch in her pocket. She turned slowly, gripping it tight. “Give me all your money,” demanded a gruff voice. Nina pretended to be scared and said, “Please, don’t hurt me!” The thief relaxed seeing her fear, and at that moment, Nina acted. She turned the powerful beam of her torch on, straight at the thief’s face. He was blinded by the light! In that moment, Nina punched him hard, breaking his nose. Howling in pain, the thief was still writhing on the ground when the police arrived. Nina said, “I knew the self-defence classes would be useful!”
