Summary:
The first time Sam steals, it's for his brother.

Quote:
"What the hell, Sammy? What's gotten into you?"
"I just… I don't know Dad. I'll never do it again. I swear."
"This just isn't like you. Do you even have any music, Sammy? What was the point?"
"It's not for me, Dad." And that's about as much as Sam can take. If he doesn't start crying at this very moment, he might just explode. "I'm sorry…"

Review:
This story was inventive and creative. I Speak Tongue used a clever title to explain the story, but it's not understood until after reading it. Throughout the tale, you think, "Why would Sam do that?" He never does that...and only after you realize why he did it, does the thoughtfullness and kindness appear.
