The Mourning House
Mulla was starving, so he knocked on a random door. A little girl answered. "Do you have any bread?" he asked.
"No," she said.
"Can I just get a glass of water?"
"We don't have any water either," she said.
Annoyed, Mulla asked, "Where is your mother?"
"She went to a mourning ceremony."
Mulla shook his head. "With a house this miserable, people should be coming to mourn at your house. Your mom didn't need to go anywhere!"
