After what felt like an eternity, the veterinarian finally pulled something out of the snake’s stomach. It wasn’t a body. It wasn’t even something alive. It was an oversized teddy bear, soaked and soggy, its plush fur clinging to the vet’s gloved hands.
The sight of the soggy plush toy was so unexpected, so absurd, that Aditya couldn’t help but laugh. His grandfather let out a chuckle, shaking his head in disbelief. The snake had mistaken the teddy bear for food, likely due to its time submerged in the water.
