  1. A True Story

    Share Share Post
    Once a man was coming from Mooncoin and he was going through the fields. He put his hand in his pocket to take out his tobacco but he took out another hand with the tobacco. He took the tobacco out of the hand and threw it away. Next morning he was found dead on his bed.
