Two sides of the same coin

The Head of it

It was a daylight robbery. Police were all around Mr.Sharma's house in search of clues. Fingers were pointed at Ramayya their servant. Ramayya knew he had no role in the burglary. The police just needed a nod from Mr.Sharma to round Ramayya up.

"Did you do it Ramu?", asked Mr.Sharma
"No sir. I did not. I had nothing to do with this.", replied Ramayya, tears welling up in his eyes.

A few days ago Ramayya had asked Mrs.Sharma an advance for his daughters marriage. Mrs. Sharma had refused. Mr.Sharma put one and one together and gave the go ahead to the police.

Ramayya languished in the gaol for three months before the real culprit was discovered. There was another burglary that happened in Mr.Sharma's house six months later. This time the police never nabbed the culprit. It was Ramayya.


The Tail of it

It was a daylight robbery. Police were all around Mr.Verma's house in search of clues. Fingers were pointed at Krishnayya their servant. Krishnayya's heart was pounding fast. The police just needed a nod from Mr.Verma to round Krishnayya up.

"He did not do it", affirmed Mr.Verma to the police
"Sir, are you sure? Your wife tells that he had asked an advance for his daughters marriage. All evidence points to him.", asked the Inspector.
"I am sure", was the response.

Krishnayya's daughters wedding took place three months later. Six months later Mr.Verma opened his safe and found the burgled money replaced. Someone had surrendered himself to the police for the crime. It was Krishnayya.
