Tales of the Unexpected

This story didn't seem very exciting to me. Rather, there is a metaphor here: a person was helped so much, helped, but he died anyway (wanting to drink, and the snake is just the metaphor of death that still bit him). Be careful

A man comes to the fortune teller for advice. She lays out the cards and sees that soon the man will receive a huge inheritance, and then he will die (she does not inform him about this). She sets up the situation in such a way that the man marries her - only then will he receive an inheritance. Six months pass, and the fortune teller receives an inheritance from her dead mother. She is very happy and wants to get a divorce, but her husband also wants to get money. As a result, he kills his wife, and then he dies himself. So the cards were right, it all came true.

@Nika: this classmate was kind of "ordered" by the main character for coming to his hometown to see a certain woman.

An old and well-known topic about fellow travelers: they will definitely turn out to be different from what they seem at first glance. I liked this story, without black humor, not a horror movie, but just a professional pickpocket who fooled the main character in a big way! And he fell for the bait so easily! Be careful on the roads!

I am a person who always arrives on time and is never late. My eye is not twitching, but everything inside is straining. And people who are late are annoying. In part, I understand the heroine. But she, with full awareness of the disaster, let her husband die just to catch a plane – this is already beyond all bounds and boundaries. Another ending of black humor!
