"Liar"
—---------


"Yesterday a patient was admitted to the bed next to me! Where did he go?"

He asked the ward attendant who came to feed him.

 "He has been shifted to the ICU."
 "There was a lady recruit here before him, wasn't it?"
 "She's gone!"
"Where?" "She was sent home."
 "Did she get well?"
 "Yeah! almost."
 "Looking at her age, I had a very little hope."  
The patient was surprised.
 "She must have been seventy years old."
 "I'm only sixty-two!"
 "You are still young, sir!"

 He smiled listening to the ward attendant who was feeding him with a spoon.

 "Means I'll be fine soon too! Right?"
 "yes of course."

 The patient took the plate of food from his hand and started eating by himself and the ward attendant came out of the ward after pouring water in the glass, to refill the thermos.

 "How many lies do you tell in a day?"
 His companion suddenly interrupted him.
 "What did I lie?"
 "You told the dead alive!"

 Hearing the accusation of his partner, he smiled…

"Its better I be a liar than killing the alive by telling them the news of dead ones."
