271st story

There lived an old woman in a part of the town where everyone knew her.

She lived in a valuable property, and a rich person had an eye on it, but she wasn’t willing to sell.

The rich man was friends with a judge, hired a lawyer and brought the old woman to the court.

The lawyer asked the old woman, ” Do you know who I am?”

The old woman, ” Of course! You are Amy’s son. Your grandmother used to sell vegetables on a cart, walking in the alleys.

She was famous for spreading rumours. And your mother was a little girl, following her mother robbing people’s pockets while they were buying from your grandmother.”

The shocked lawyer stayed quiet.

The rich man stood up to say something, but the old woman jumped in his words and said, ” And you used to shine people’s shoes.

A poor boy who secretly handed them some drugs provided by your father. We all know shining shoes didn’t bring you to the level you are living.”

The old woman looked at the judge and asked, ” Do you want to know about your mother, my dear?”
