The Unknown Number

"Every time an Unknown Number calls, we anticipate irritating telemarketers. But sometimes one such call, touches the heart like no known call ever has."

A heartwarming portrayal of pandemic times …

One wish. A thousand regrets.

 “To look at,” said the sergeant-major, fumbling in his pocket, “it's just an ordinary little paw, dried to a mummy.” … “And what is there special about it?” inquired Mr. White, as he took it from his son and, having examined it, placed it upon the table.

“It had a spell put on it by an old fakir,” said the sergeant-major, “a very holy man. He wanted to show that fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow. He put a spell on it so that three separate men could each have three wishes from it.”
