Identites

Identites Paragraph. In this story Identites, The title, the contrast and the irony all conclude to the theme of the story. In the story, There is this buisness man, that wants to go out for a drive, as he drives, he gets more and more lost. Finially coming to the bad part of town, he gets worried that he didnt write his wife. He then wants to call her, pulling up to a store, he see's three people who look like they may attack him. So he takes his wallet, putting it in his front pocket, he then takes 10 dollars and puts it in his back pocket. He then walks to the store, but he didnt know that there was a police officer following him. As he walks up to the store, the police officer tells him to freeze, but then the man thinks this is a relief, going to grab the wallet, the police officer shoots, because he thinks the man is grabbing for a weapon. When really he isnt. I believe that it is irony because he thought that the men and the woman leaning against the building were going to mug him, but then instead the police officer where he felt safe shoots him because he thought he was a one of them and stole the Benz.. The theme in this short story is about how the man gets his identite mistaken, causing him to loose his life all because he didnt shave.
