Clever Gift
A young couple got married and went away on their honeymoon. After two weeks they
came back and finally put away all of the presents they received from friends
and family. Since this was a new home, the process took some time.
A
week later, they received in the mail two tickets for a popular show where tickets
were impossible to get. They were very excited and warmed by the gesture of the
person who sent this. Inside the envelope, however, was only a small piece of
paper with a single line, "Guess who sent them."
The pair had much fun
trying to identify the donor, but failed in the effort. They went to the theatre,
and had a wonderful time. On their return home late at night, still trying to
guess the identity of the unknown host, they found the house stripped of every
article of value. And on the bare table in the dining room was a piece of paper
on which was written in the same hand as the enclosure with the tickets:
"Now you know!"
