“One time a man built a room at the back of his house.”
One time a man built a room at the back of his house. When he had it built the door of the room was flung open every night. One night the man of the house stayed up untill about one o'clock and the door was flung open. The man ran to the door and he said "In the name of God why do you come here to open my door" and his answer was "Take that room away and then your door will be left alone." So the man had to thrown down the room again and he was never bothered again.
