Bury Us in a Lone Desert

The story begins with a thief trying to sneak into an expensive-looking urban house to steal valuables. As he is about to leave, he is caught by an old man. The old man offers the thief his freedom for an exchange: He has to help the man die and be buried with his wife, who had passed away years ago. The old man is so deeply in love with his wife that he had put her remains in a plaster statue and has been sleeping with the statue ever since. The thief refuses at once, but as he witnesses the old man’s love for his wife, he starts to change his mind.
