"Look Bequer, I bought this hat in Paris." "Its been many years." "Its a very elegant design." "Don´tt you like it?" "You dont understand a thing about fashion, Bequer." "What a pity, Bequer..." "Theres no way to stop this plague." "Look my flowers..." "Remind me to put the insecticide tomorrow." "Blacker than the night" "Come and drink your milk." "Bequer, where have you been all day long?" "If you dont come when I call you, there´lll not be any snack for you." "Do you understand?" "Bequer, dont be such a naughty cat." "Behave yourself." " Hi." "When did you arrive?" " Just now." "Whos that in my bedroom?" " What?" " Oh, forget it." "Hey you lazy, get up." "Its too late." " What a surprise!" " No." "You gave me a surprise." "Can you tell me whos sleeping in my bed?" "Shes a cousin of mine, poor girl she didn´tt have a place to stay." " I dont know what´ss happening to men." "She´ss going to stay?" " If you don´tt have any problem..." " Where is she going to sleep?" " Any place, on the sofa or here with me." " Besides, she can help us with the bills." "Shes model." " That argument convinces me." "Come on, get dress, let´ss go!" "Everything was ok with Octavio until yesterday when I opened the door and I saw..." " A woman!" " Two!" "His wife and daughter." " What surprise may he had!" " Just figure, he had just his slip on!" " What happened?" " I dont know." "I just grabbed my things, acted naïve and left." " Did they give you any recommendation card?" " Not even a single one." "And I didnt do it so badly." "Well, just forget it." "Whats important is you already have a place to sleep." "Ofelia agrees." " I really dont know how to thank you..." " Don´tt worry, we´lll charge you every forthcoming." "The rules of the house are:" "The first one who enter to work has the right to use the bathroom." "Im late." " See you later." "Bye!" " Bye!" "By the way, Ofelia." "You didnt tell us anything about your trip." "The bad news are that its over now and I have no plans." " Ofelia, youre an actress?" " Well, it´ss supposed..." " What do you do?" " I work as divorcée." "As vampire, she lives with money stolen from his ex-husband." "Here, Im the one in charge of the administration of the house." "If thats the case, bring me another cup of coffee and put it on my check." "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "I need to talk with you, come with me." " Something wrong happened?" " Im not sure yet." "Look what they sent me." "Its a solicitor´ss citation." " You justve to go and find yourself." " I want you come with me, this things scare me." "Im scared too." "The house and all it properties, will keep after my death in charge of my niece Miss Ofelia Escudero." " An inheritance?" " A considerably sum of money." "Its an old house but has a lot of land and many valuable objects." "But..." "I cant understand why aunt Susana chosed me." " Im aware that you were the only family she had." " So, it was by default." "Oh, it doesnt matter!" "What´ss important is you inherited, like in a soap opera!" "One moment." "This things always get weird with strange terms and conditions." " Like marying someone you dont know or adopting a child." " Well, that´ss half true." " See?" "I told you..." " Its not as serious as you think, it´ss not even a condition but a beg." "As an exchange for this legacy, I just wait from my nieces humanitarian feelings to accept the custody of the living being I loved the most in my life and kept me faithfull company for many years, my unforgettable cat Bequer." "A cat?" "!" "As an exchange of a house, I cant see the problem." " Whos this aunt Susana?" " She was my mother´ss cousin." "I barely remember her." "I was afraid of her, she always scolded to me." " Then, there was a family fight and I never saw her again." " You dont remember anything about the house?" "Yes." "There was a big chandelier in the saloon." "And long stairways." "I slid down the handrail when I was a child." "There was a big clock somewhere." "I loved hearing the clocks strokes." "The entire house had a strange damp and spikenards smell." "And it was always silent." "What impressed me the most, was aunt Susanas portrait on the saloon." " Not very modern, isnt it?" " No, but it must have many bedrooms." " That means servants, isnt it?" " Why not?" "With the money we saved, we can pay for them." "Good afternoon." "Im Ofelia Escudero." " Im not sure if you know that..." " I know." "Come in." " These are my friends, theyll live with me." " Like you wish." " Wed like to see the entire house." " My pleasure." "This is the main saloon." "Thats the reception room." "Thats the famous picture?" " What a cool aunt!" " She was a very distinguished lady, if thats what you mean." "Yes, thats it." " So many weirds things!" " Did you see this eyesore?" "That eyesore was a present from the Persians ambassador to Madam Susana." " I was just saying its weird." " Don´tt worry Miss." "I understand your point of view." "Modernism, has distorted peoples taste." " Do you want to see the living room?" " Why dont we check the bedrooms?" "Yes, much better." "Do you want to know when Ill go the Persia?" "Never!" "This is your aunts bedroom, where she died." "The notary told me she died of a heart attack while she was kitting in the saloon." "Thats true but she was still alive when we brought here." "Everything is exactly as it was before she dies." " Whats in the box?" " Your aunt´ss ring, the one she always used it." "Put it on." "No." " We should keep this room closed out of consideration for your aunt." " Yes, I think thats ok." "What?" "!" "And waste this bed?" "!" "She died here." " Then, she died very comfortable." " Why dont you keep this bedroom?" " Id love that but Ofelia is her niece and she should stay." " No, it´ss yours if you really liked it." "If you want to, you can check the other bedrooms." "This junk is quite comfortable." " Did you see this?" "A collection of junk!" " Watch out, it can be from the Turkish ambassador." " Did they scold you, huh?" " Lousy broad..." "Girls, I found an incredible treasure up there." "The bathrooms are full of white clothes and towels." " Weve inherited many things." " I want to know if we´rre going to keep that horrible servant." "Be careful cocky girl, the mummy can hear you." "Did you see the kitchen?" "What a fancy oven!" " Im going right now, that´ss my especiality!" " Wait a moment, something important is missing." " Wheres Bequer?" " Of course, the cat!" "I have no idea where it can be." "Since your aunts death, it acts very strange and it´ss usually hidden somewhere." "Well, I dont care." "I hate cats in general." "Tell me something, Sofia..." "Is it pretty?" "Your aunt said that it wasnt anything better in the world." "What colour is it?" "Black, blacker than night." "Blacker than night..." " Corny old woman." "All this solemnity just for a lousy cat." " Dont complain, thanks to it you have this house." "Oh!" "Listen to the prince consort." "Youre going to defend that cat just to please Ofelia." "And I like it a lot." "The problem is you suffer from urophobia." "What?" "!" "Urophobia." "Uro is urine, phobia is fear." "Fear of the cats." "If thats the case, we´rre two." "I hate cats." "Except for the husband, there isnt any other ungrateful animal." " What are you doing?" " Saving me the stairs." "Martha is downstairs waiting..." "What happened?" "I get tired of waiting." "Shes a weirdo!" "Everything is in the car now." "Even a needle won´tt fit." " Ill have to do another trip." " Take this, there´ss a place in the seat." "Dont touch it!" "How you dare to put your hands on my canary?" " Oh cmon, it won´tt die!" " Yes, it can." "Look, now it´ss trembling." "Did the witch scare you?" "Come with mommy." "This is cornier than Christmas with the family." "Isnt he lovely?" "Yes, I hope Bequer get both of you married." "You may not believe it but Bequers absence have me worried." " I hope it gets permanently lost." " Dont say that, they´lll take out our inheritance." "The testament didnt say that." "But I feel morally responsible." "Ofelia... what if instead of living in this museum, you sell it." " Cool!" "You could buy a condominium!" " And lose this?" "Never." "In the future, when theres more money I could throw it and start a modern house." "I leave you with your engaging projects, I go to sleep." " Me too." "I carried boxes like a longshoreman." " Ok, sessions over." " Hey, the testament force you to keep the mummy?" " No, but what can I do?" "Embalm her!" " Curtains will look nice up there." " Still awake, Sofia?" "I have the habit of turn off the lights and wound up the clocks every night." " Youll tell me if you want I keep doing it." " No, no..." "It´ss ok." "Good night." " Sofia, did Bequer shows up?" " Dont worry Miss." "The cat´lll come back." "I think this moving, its going to complicate yourself." "Because of Roberto?" "Ill phone his office tomorrow to tell him where I´mm living." " For a divorced couple, youve a quite good relationship." " Not at all, my dear." "Im interested in him sending my money." " Admit it, you still want him." " Yes, in the bottom of the sea with a stone on his neck." "If I were you, Id patch things up." "You´rre complicating life with stupidities." "Whats wrong?" "I dont know, something strange in the air." " Dont you notice?" " I feel a spikenard´ss smell." "It wasnt so intense in the morning." "Dont start with your imagination `ccause you won´tt be sleeping." "Can you turn off the lights?" "Good night." "Good night, Madam." " Did you hear that?" "!" " Who screamed?" "!" " Pilar!" "Oh... its Bequer!" "Thats why you screamed?" "It scared the shit out of me!" "Damn cat!" "Be careful, it can scratch you." " Its scared." " And with a good reason, he found Pilar in the dark." "Very amusing." " Somethings happening?" " Yes, this indecent cat entered to the room!" "It still feel this is her masters bedroom." "It has always slept in that rocking chair." " From where it came in?" " From the window." "Its open." "Madam Susana ordered to take off the grills for Bequer wander around freely." "Ill fix that tomorrow." " Im not going to sleep every night with a cat!" " Not every night but tonight you don´tt have choice.." "Will see..." "Get out of here!" "Get out!" "I dont recommend you do that." "It´dd spend all night meowing at the door." "Shes right." "Forget about the cat, lie down and get to sleep." " It wont be easy but... anyhow." " Let ourselves sleep." " Please." " Good morning!" " Good morning!" " Enjoying yourselves, huh?" " You were sleeping like a log and I didnt want to wake you up." " With last night´ss little party I could hardly sleep." "Think what you want but Im happy we found Bequer." " I dont think it´ss funny." " Me, for instance, I won´tt sleep in that bedroom anymore." "Ok, I take it." "Well change places later." " Now I want some company to go through the cellars." " Theyre cellars?" " Huge and apparently full of old junk." " I love seeing pieces of junk!" " Whereabouts is the entry?" " Theres a door at the back of the house." "Sofia gave me the keys." "Did you see this?" "I cant understand how could they dress like this in the streets." " I cant understand how could they cover their bodies so much." " Being virtuous was meaningless." "Where´ss the joke about it?" "Sure." "Just imagine to undress ones clothes!" " This fashion suits you very well, Pilar." " I guess its the habit." "These dresses are just like the ones my husband bought me." "Hey, your aunt sure knew about business." "Check this!" " Thats why your aunt didn´tt get married?" " She didn´tt want to." "She had a romantic story waiting for his first boyfriend." "She has never wore that coat?" "What a waste!" "Will you dare to go out dressed like that?" "Yes, some tuesdays carnival." "Why not?" " Thatd be cool!" "We can do a masquerade party!" " Pilar and Sofia should go without mask." " Shut up!" "Those are malicious words." "Hey, thatd be for the front page or just for the cancan?" " I think this is Lucías sunday dress." " No, hers are more cheerful." " You look like my grandmother with that hat!" " Yes but the way shes now in the grave!" "Girls, look what I found!" " Im sure something especial is in there." " I´lll find out." " Damn cat!" "It scared me a lot!" " Bequer, get out of here." "Dont be a nuisance." "Get out!" " Be careful, its furious!" " Like if that box were itself´ss." " It´lll pay for this!" " Please dont hit it!" " Of course I´lll!" " It´ss leaving now." "Quite friendly cat, huh?" "Did it hurt you?" "Nah, it just took it to heart." " Lets see what´ss in that box, ok?" " Ok." " What a gorgeous dress!" " It must be my aunt wedding dress." " Didnt you tell us she wasn´tt married?" " Yeah but it seems she had it prepared." "Maybe you can fix it and wear it in your wedding." "Thats true." "It´lll cost me a lot to buy a dress like this." "They say wearing something old is good luck!" "Thatd be done if you show up as the maid of honor." " Ill go to my room and try on!" " Come on!" "Bequer." "Bequer, what are you doing here?" "Come here, my dear." "Stop playing pranks." "Come here." "Can we listen something more quiet?" " No, thats why I brought my records." "Do you prefer those from the aunt?" " Did she own?" " Of course she owned!" "Bach, Chopin, Bethoveen, Wagners opera, Vivaldi." "She was totally out." " Im thinking on keeping the dress the way it is now." "It´ss ok?" " I think is great." " Did you like the idea of her wearing that dress?" " Of course." "Of course, he saves himself buying a new one." "Did she see you with your dress on?" "Thats bad luck." "It also means being one step ahead of the wedding." "We dont like that, little boy." "These two mothers in law are watching you." "Bequer!" "Come here, Bequer!" "Someones in the garden." " What are you talking about?" " Someones calling Bequer from the garden!" " Did you see something?" " Yes, looked like the shadow of a woman." " Watch out, people." "Aurora loves making jokes." " No!" "I swear its not a joke, I heard a voice in the garden!" " I want to be sure about this." " I go with you." "Youd better not joking about this." "No, I swear Im not!" "Nobodys here." " I already knew that." " Lets go back, it´ss very cold." "This is the first time they leave us alone." "Im not going to waste this opportunity." "Did you hear that?" "Yes and very close." " Wait here." " Dont go." "It´ss Sofia." "I don´tt know why I didn´tt think of that before." "Thank goodness..." "I was getting the chill down my spine." "No, no Miss." "It wasnt me." " Ive been in the kitchen all night." " But we heard you, Sofia!" "I assure you." "Youre wrong." "Besides, there´ss any reason to call Bequer." "It always stay in the garden during the night." "Unless wed called it earlier because the clouds looked threatening." "Rain?" "In this season?" "Im just giving a report of this house´ss custom." "Ok, you can go now." "With your permission." "Im sure it was her!" " Crazy old woman, I cant stand her!" " The good part is we´rre in good company." "Shes right about one thing:" "There´ss a lot of noise in this house!" "Oh, you didnt hear nothing yet!" "Let´ss dance, Pedro!" "I dont understand why she said she wasn´tt in the garden." " You know...?" "Im not so sure if she was that voice." " Who else´dd be?" " I don´tt know." "Im not superstitious but it frightened me a lot when I heard that voice." "Can you believe this?" "Its raining." "Whos there?" "Whos there?" "Of course it was her!" "Neither of us could do it." "I cant believe it." "How this woman dare to enter in my bedroom?" "Believe it." "This old servants feel theyve the right to do it." "The fact that they see us as intruders..." " Did you want it to see me, Miss?" " Yes, Sofía." "Tell me..." "What did you burn there, last night?" " Me?" " Look Sofia, I want you tell me the truth." "Yesterday, I found a wedding dress in the cellar." "Someone took away from my room and threw it in the fire." " Your aunts wedding dress?" " Yes, that one." "I burned myself." "Thats inexcusable!" "How did you dare!" "Your aunt adored that dress." "It was something very beautiful for her." "I dont think you´vve had such love for an object to the extent of treat it as something untouchable and sacred." " That didnt give you the right...!" " Of course not, Miss." "I beg you to forgive me." " If you want I can leave..." " Thats not the point, Sofía." "Well talk later." "With your permission." "Why didnt you fire her?" "Im not sure." "Poor woman, she really loved my aunt." "Shes an hypocrite!" "Did you see her innocence face when you asked her?" "She almost convinced me." " But who else could be?" " Of course." "But..." "How did she know that the dress was in my bedroom?" "He looked so handsome!" "Bequer!" "Yes!" "That damn cat did it..." "Bye darling, thanks for everything." "Can we have lunch tomorrow?" " I dont think so." "I call you at the office." " Ok, bye." " Bye." "Let me close for you." "Bequer, where are you?" "Whos there?" "Its me, Miss." "Im looking for Bequer." "I didnt see it all day long." "It didn´tt eat and that worries me." " Dont worry, it´lll come back." " No." "It won´tt if I don´tt call it." " Its scared." " Why?" "Bequer knows when it behaved badly." "Today, it made something terrible." "It killed Miss Auroras canary." "Poor little darling..." "Marta!" "Wake up!" "What happens?" "Listen..." "I dont hear anything." "Already stopped." " What happens, Aurora?" "Youre trembling." " Marta, those sobbing were horrible." " Cmon woman, you just had a nightmare." " No." "I heard em, I was awake!" "Then..." "I went to the corridor and..." "Someones was crying in the saloon." " We can go see if you want to." " No!" "No matter what, I wont go downstairs." "Im so scared!" "So scared..." " Good morning, Sofía." " Good morning." "Sofía..." "Did you hear something weird last night?" " Weird?" "Like what?" " Like a crying." "A crying?" "No." "I didnt hear a thing." "Thank you, Sofía." " Im sure it was the sound of the wind, Aurora." " No, not at all." " What I listened was a crying." " But Pilar and Ofelia didnt hear anything." "Yes, thats very strange." "Why only me?" "You better give up, Im on fire tonight." "Ok, I give up." " Youre not happy." "What´ss wrong?" " You´lll make fun of me if I tell you." " Bequer." " Yes." "It didnt come back, not even for eating." "It´ss been 4 days now." " I think we definitively lose it." " Dont worry." "It must be out there living a passionate romance." "How wonderful animals are..." "He had a feeling hell be scold after killing the canary." " ltd do any good if I get a new cat for you?" " No." " Ive became very fond of it." "He was very pretty." " And blacker than night!" " Dont make fun of it." " No, I´mm truly sorry." " Do you want to come in?" " Do you want?" "Im coming in!" "Sofias bedroom is at the back of the garden but I..." " Whats happening?" " We must tell you something." "You ain´tt going to like it." "What?" " We found Bequer." " Oh, I was scared!" "Where is it?" "In the cellar..." "Dead." "How could this happen?" "We didnt notice and we let it locked." "It couldnt get out because of the barred windows." "It died of hunger." "Poor thing..." "Dont get distress about it." "I know it´ss sad but it´ss nobody´ss fault." "Its urgent we take the cat out and throw it far from here." "Throw it?" "Certainly not!" "Well buried it in the garden." " Ofelia, thats nonsense!" " I don´tt care!" "I´dd feel very bad if I didn´tt do it." "We never treat it respectfully." "Ok." "If that calm you down, well buried it tomorrow." "I feel so guilty." " He mustve suffered a lot." " Don´tt think about that." "Let´ss go." "Ok." "Fortunately, Bequers problem is finished." "Damn cat!" "Not even dead Ill forgive it about my canary." "Lets go, Marta." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "Im thinking what aunt Susana´dd do if she knew it." "Who is it?" "Whos there?" "What can I do for you, Miss?" " How did you dare to bring this here?" " Bring what?" "This!" "Dont try to deny it!" " It seems cruel to leave it in the cellar, this was Bequers favourite spot." " You must be crazy!" " Just for this night." " Take out this junk right now!" "Do you understand?" "Yes." "Yes, Miss..." "Done." "Something else?" "I suppose youre not expecting we put a gravestone, right?" " Dont make fun of me." "I couldn´tt just throw it in a trash can." " Ok, we already did it." "Now, please forget about Bequer." " Im very sorry, Sofía." "I didn´tt take proper care of Bequer." " The house´lll be very different now." "Personally, I wont notice the difference." "I assure you, youll notice Miss." "Why did you give her explanations?" " She loved Bequer." "I dont want she hold a grudge against us." " Hold a grudge?" "She hates us." "The way she looks at us." " Does that utter nonsense ended?" " Let me tell you, my dear, that you dont have any feelings." "Youre a bunch of hypocrites!" "You´rre as happy as me with the cat´ss dead." "You are just making a good impression on Ofelia." " I cant understand how no one listened it miaowing?" " Yes, it´ss weird that a cat die of hunger so quietly." "Enough!" "Im fed up with the cat!" "You´rre going to drive me crazy!" " Theres no other subject to talk about?" " What´ss the problem, Aurora?" "I cant stand this!" "It´ss been a week since you only talk about Bequer!" "This is too much!" "Whats wrong with her?" "Bequer." "Who is it?" " Its me, Miss." " Come in." "Whats that?" " As you didnt eat this afternoon..." " Thanks." "Leave it there." "Do you feel sick?" "Yes, Im a little bit nervous." "Did you hear those voices again?" "No." "You must think Im crazy." "Why?" "Because Im a modern woman liberated of all those nonsenses and suddenly Im listening voices at midnight but I heard them, Sofia!" "They we terrifying, long and bloodcurding." "Horrible." "If you had listened to them." "I did." "Sofía, help me please." "Help me!" "Youve lived in this house for so long, you know all the noises it has to be an explanation." " There is one." "Do you believe in the afterlife?" "No." "Of course not." "If so, you wouldnt understand me." "If you listen to them again stay in your room." " Youre going to stay much longer, Miss Aurora?" " No, José." "I´mm finishing." "You didnt read any book, don´tt you?" " Why it worries you?" "You never read them." " At my age?" "When Id finished them?" " Its not about reading all of them but the important ones." " Much worst would be reading all of them, just imagine trying all these!" " Im in the office if you need me." " Thanks, José." "Drink it, Aurora." "Youll feel better." "I saw her." "It wasnt my imagination." "Believe me." " You just said that the caretaker checked the library and didnt find anyone." " But she was there!" "And then I saw the walking stick." "Im still watching it in my mind." "I didn´tt recall about the stick!" "Of course you do, you see it every day in that picture over there." "No, I saw it." "It wasnt the same." "It was very clear." "Its silver hilt shined." "That stick never was in the library, Im going to show you right now." " Its in the house?" " Naturally." " ltd make you feel better if you saw it?" " I don´tt know." "Maybe." "All is a product of an obsession." "Since that night when you heard the voices, you cant stop thinking about this." " Tell me, Miss." " Sofía, can you please bring us my aunts walking stick?" "Dont look at us that way!" " We want the one she used in her portrait." " But... thats not possible." " She carried with her." " She carried?" "Hows that?" "The day we buried her, I put that stick in her coffin." " What should I put first?" " The sauce first, then the almonds." " Who taught you this dish?" " My grandmother." "It was Madam Susanas favourite dish." "You really loved her, right?" "She was a wonderful person." "Every person who knew her, became very fond of her." "However, she never managed to get along with Ofelia." "She was very strict, Miss." "If someone made a mistake, she never forgot it." "She didnt know how to forgive." "You rest, Sofía." "I go." " You?" " Hi." "Can I come in?" "Yes, of course." "What message did you gave to the caretaker?" "He didnt explain me very well." " One of youve inherited a house or something..." " Ofelia." "This is her house." "Youre planning to stay here with your friends?" "I dont have to tell you about my plans." "Damn!" "Dont be so agressive." "It just worries me you live here, as if you didn´tt have a home." "Thats the truth." "You have ours, dont you?" "You never show up there." "Well... that was before." "I promess that if you come back with me, all will be different." "Look..." "Ive though a lot about us." "You were right." " Keep your hands down!" " I made many mistakes." " I admit I left you alone because of my friends." "Thats over now." " Please, Roberto." "Also, I admit I spent money when you needed clothes and other things but..." "Roberto, they can see you..." "Listen... were not going to let nobody intercede in our lives." "You know?" "Im still in love with you." "Roberto, theyll see us..." "I cant live without you." "I need you." "I promess were going to be very happy." " And were going to have a child." " But not here." " Look..." "Its Ofelia." " Yes, it´ss me." "How weird, isnt it?" "Ofelia, what a surprise!" " What a miracle..." " How are you?" "He came to talk with me." " Then, I wont interrupt." " No!" "He was leaving." "But you didnt answer yet." " I need some days to think about it." " Ok, like you want." " See you, Ofelia." "And congrats, very nice house." " Thanks a lot, Roberto." " Bye!" " Ofelia, let me explain to you..." " Its not necessary, my mother did it many years ago." " Dont think that I was..." " Pilar, is your life and you can do whatever you want." "Were going to miss you a lot." "Ive not decided yet." "I dont know what to do." "To start with, you can button up." "José!" "José, is it you?" "!" "Answer me!" "What are you doing, José?" "!" "Turn on the lights, please!" "Is it you, José?" "Answer me!" "LIBRARY" " Its closed." " She works until late." " Good night, Miss!" " Good night, I came to see Aurora." "Shes still here?" "I think shes gone, there´ss nobody inside." "Thats not possible." "I just finished to talk with her and she said that she´dd wait for me." "Ok, you can come in if you wish." "See?" "She isnt here." "It´ss been quite some time since I turned off the lights." "Look!" "Thats her purse." "She´ss still here." "She must be in some of the warehouses." "Im going to check." "What a place!" "Where may be the lights?" "Aurora!" "Marta." "What are you doing here?" " Nothing." " Why dont you come with us?" "I don´tt want you be alone." " I cant stop thinking about Aurora." "What could happen?" " What they told: the heart." "Yes but do you know what makes ones heart stop?" " The Fear." " What are you talking about?" "Fear of what?" "He had that fear for a long time, since that night when she heard those voices." " And then the woman he saw at the library." " That was pure imagination." "You saw Auroras face after her death." "Those fixed eyes, opened, full of fear Ive been many hours here, I keep asking myself..." "What could it be the last thing she saw?" "Sofía, Pilar told me you wanted to talk with me." " Dont you think it´ss quite excessive to put flowers on a cat´ss tomb?" " Why?" " Thats what they do in all the tombs." " People´ss tombs" " It´ss the same." "They are lovely beings that weve lost." "Your aunt thought the same way." "Ok." "What did you want it to talk with me?" " Thisd be the last week at your service, Miss." " Why Sofía?" " Perhaps you dont understand my reasons." " Tell me, I´vve right to know." "I knew Bequers death would brings disgrace." " And you alreadyve saw what happened with Miss Aurora." " What does that have to do with the cat´ss death?" "No with the cat." " I meant, with your aunt..." " My aunt is dead!" " Your aunt is here." " Please, Sofía!" "I dont know how you didn´tt realize earlier." "Your aunts presence is in every corner of this house..." "Ive heard her crying through the nights for Bequer´ss death..." "Ive seen her wandering in the corridors, looking through the windows." "You must be out of your mind." "I knew you wouldnt understand me." "But when I left, youll continue to find flowers on Bequer´ss tomb." " Why does she wants to leave?" " She gave me some silly reasons." "I think we dont like her." " I knew it, I already imagined this." " I asked her to stay until we find a new maid." "I dont want to put such weight on Pilar." " By the way, why did you take me out when Roberto arrived?" " Theyve to talk alone." " Do you think hell convince her?" " I don´tt know but I assure you, he´ss trying." "No, Roberto, no!" "This aint all right..." " I can make it better if you let me." " Dont make fun of it." " You know what Im talking about." " What´ss wrong with that?" "You´rre my wife, didn´tt you?" " Your ex!" " Nonsense!" "Whats more, you agreed to come back to the house today." "No, dont rush me." "I only promised to think about." "But I havent decided anything yet." "You cant do this to me." "I had everything arranged, I even put flowers in all the house." "The guys are arranging a party tomorrow at Daniels place." "Im really sorry, Roberto." "But..." "I want to be sure." "Ok, like you want it." "At least you can come with me to the party." "Theyll be pleased to see you." " Well..." "Its possible if you promess to act formal." " Of course!"

" Or aunt Susana kill one of us." " Marta!" " Why dont you admit it, Ofelia?" "It wasnt a heart attack or a fall what killed Aurora and Pilar..." "It was the fear." "What about?" "A ghost?" " Both of them saw her." " Thats what they believed." "They saw her because shes here among us." "This house is full of her perfume and her cryings..." "You sound like Sofía." "Yes..." "Because I feel like her the presence of this woman." "I feel her in the dark threatened us..." "Watching us with her cold eyes..." "Stop the nonsense, Marta!" "Aunt Susana is dead, no one ever come back from there." "What happened?" "!" "The lights turned off." "Theres nothing to be worried about." "Im going to light some candles."

"But..." "I cant understand." "Shes taking revenge for Bequer´ss death." "Thats the most unfair thing I´vve ever listened." "Bequer´ss death was an accident, a distraction." "Nobody wanted to hurt him." "And now she wants to claim with 4 women lives." "Now I know what aunt Susana was and old, twisted and cruel woman." "Ofelia, listen to me." "Tomorrow, Ill throw that portrait in the fire!" "I don´tt want to see it ever again!" "Ofelia, theres something you must know Bequers death it´ss our own fault." " I know that!" "But you didn´tt know about the cat locked inside." "No..." "Thats what we told you for you don´tt get angry with us." "It was a lie." "What are you saying?"
