Everything we do in this life has a reason, something's, it might not revealed to us at the early stage but definitely as times goes on, it would be revealed to us.
The elderly woman has first saw it coming, and she didn't hesitate to caution Tila about it, after narrating what she saw happened to him, she thought, he was going to stop taking peoples thing's unlawfully but Tila wanted to make an occupation in thievery, unfortunately, he was caught on that fateful day and he was beating mercilessly by the angry mob.
He learnt his lessons and he has resist rob with all his mindset since ever that incident occur to him.
I admire Tila for the path he has taken now with his life and not be doing like before, it is good to know when a person change for good and leave his old way that were not good.
