The second question he thought was Which doctor is treating you?. He expected the answer of their family doctor. Then he would say OH! OK! You should leave everything on him now. He will make you feel better . the third question he decided was Which medicines are you taking? He expected the name of some medicines in reply. Then he decided to say OH LOVELY You will soon be fine if you take them. Then he set off to his fathers house. When he reached there he asked the first question. FATHER : OH! Not very well. Bhopal did not understand anything but replied what he had decided . then he asked the second question. FATHER : ( getting irritated) THE GOD OF DEATH. He replied as he had decided and then asked the last question. FATHER : ( getting angry) POISON! He replied as he had decided but his father was so angry that he took Bhopal out of the house and shut the door. Poor Bhopal stood standing thinking what had made him so angry.
