I’ll die in Singapore, like a dog

I found a piece of candy in the park. I picked it up out of curiosity, I don’t even like sweets.  To my surprise, my name was written on the paper it was wrapped in, and the following message:

“You will die in Singapore, like a dog”.

Moriré en Singapur, como un perro

Moriré en Singapur, como un perro

Me encontré un caramelo en el Parque Forestal. Lo recogí por curioso, en realidad no me gustan los dulces. Para mi sorpresa, en el papel en que venía envuelto estaba escrito mi nombre, y el siguiente mensaje:

"Morirás en Singapur, como un perro".
