"Pension Lorena. 2." "Floor" "Goodbye." " Goodbye." "Thank you for everything, Emilla." "Thank you, dear." "Have a good time!" "I'm soon coming with Vicky." "Have a good time, my dear." "Comeon in, Gloria!" "The house is cold." "I'll heat in a minute." "Hello." " Good day." "Bring those to Glorias room please." " Okay." "This is Teresa." "She's in the house since a long time." "Glad to meet you." "Come inside, let's drink something." "This is the kitchen and dinning room." "It's very big." "Like all old houses." "Coke?" " Yes please." "Alot was modernized, but I wanted to keep it like it was when my parents still were here." "Did they die a long time ago?" "Daddy died when I was 12." "My mother shortly after I started college." "Ana." " Yes?" "Thank you." "What for?" "That me and vicky can live here." "Everything is so expensive nowadays." "With tuitions and rent I had the water to my neck." "One thing has to be clear:" "You don't owe me anything." "You both live here and in return... you'll help me with consultation-hour." "Do you have any idea how much Margarita did cost me?" "Who?" "The nurse." "She got married and disappeared." "30.000 a month." "Social insurrance, Holidays and alot more." "Your baggage us upstairs already." "Do you have another wish?" "No, thank you." "I made the meat from yesterday with green beans for dinner." "Good." "Till tomorrow, Senora." " See you tomorrow, and thank you." "Follow me, I'll show you the house." "Here where the clothes are hanging are the stairs to the basement." "This is the examination room." "It used to be the dinning room." "So many pictures of children!" "The mothers sent them to me." "I've helped all of them to come to earth." "Come!" "You'll work here." "You'll soon get into the documents." "Over there is the waiting room." "So Teresa doesn't live here?" "No." "She comes in the morning, cleans the house and prepares dinner and leaves." "You can share a room, or vicky can have her own." "So she'll have more room to play." "It's better if she has an own room." "Then this is yours." "It was in bad shape." "I've wallpapered a couple months ago and prepared the guest room." "It even has a phone." "It's a exstention phone to the main connection." "Then this will be Vickys room, there's mine and there is the bath room." "There's only one but it's big at least." "This stair leads to the attic." "And that is it." "How do you like it?" "Very nice." "I wanted to give it up some years ago, and buy a appartment instead, but..." "What is it?" "I thought I heard someone knocking on this door." "No, that doesn't mean anything." "Are you coming?" "I almost bought a appartment but it was to expensive." "And one where I could have my medical of..." "Primary school" "I've brought our baggages to Anas house." "It's very big." "Is Ana a doctor?" " Yes." "She works in the same hospital as me." "That's how I know her." "Is she old?" " No." "Older than you?" "Yes." "But then she is old." "You're gonna like her, you'll see." "Hop in!" "Why don't you open your present?" "May I help you?" "Do you like it?" " Very." "How do we say?" " Thank you." "How are you gonna call her?" "I had one once, that one was called Charito." "Then she's Charito the 2nd." "And your room, do you like it?" "Would you like the light on or off?" "On." "Till tomorrow, princess." "Till tomorrow." "I she sleeping?" "Not yet." "She's abit restless because of all the whirl from the moving." "I think she didn't like that my room had new furniture and new wallpaper." "I've already got an idea how we do that." "How?" " You'll see tomorrow." "You look tired." "Yes, that's possible." "I often think you worry to much about your daughter." "I don't have anyone else." "Life has to continue." "I'm not married." "So what?" "We don't life in the last century anymore." "You're very young Gloria... and pretty." "And even more pretty if you take care of yourself." "You have to be vainly at your age." "May I take care of that?" "Take care of what?" " About you." "To see that you look after yourself, dress your hair and that you dress the way you have to." "I have taste and it's important to me that everything around me has something pretty." "Agreed?" " Yes." "Shall I take it?" " Go on, Mrs. nurse." "Yes?" "Hello." "No, you must be mistaken." "What number did you dial?" "Yes, yes that is here." "Hang on please." "It's a man." "He's asking for a Christina." "He says she lives here." "Give me the phone." "Yes please?" "No, that's not here." "Maybe you've dialed the wrong number." "He asked if this is the house of Ana Torres." "Yes." "But here doesn't live any Christina." "Here, the ones from yesterday afternoon are all done." "Thank you." "Have you moved already?" " Yes." "You're already looking better." " I have less to worry about now." "And how is Dr. Torres?" "They say she's from 'Opus Dei'." "They do?" " Because she's so ultra conservative." "Mrs. Elias." "How are you?" "Take a seat." " Thank you." "Excuse me just a moment please." "Device 45?" " I've brought the results." "Thank you." "Gloria?" "I'll finnish in 15 minutes." "You can take the bus." "That way I'll have time to buy some things for Vicky's room." "Good." "And now?" "How do you like your room?" "It's very nice." "You'll see, we'll be very happy here." "All three of us." "Right?" "You're next appointment." "On the 22nd at 17:30." "Very good, thank you." " Thank you." "Adiós." "Hello." " Hello." "Hello." " Hello." "Hello, good day." " Good day." "I've got an appointment at six." "My name is Zapta." "The waiting room is over there." "Mrs. Doctor will call for you." "You're new, right?" " Yes." "Mrs. Doctor said I should go to the hospital, but they say the results are here." "I've brought them here." "Follow me." "I'll give them to you in a moment." " Thank you." "Did you see all these bottles?" "What are all these for?" "Cremes, perfumes, bath salts." "Bath salts?" " You put them in the water when you bath." "What for?" " So it smells better." "Why don't you use any bath salts?" "Because they're Anas." "They're not ours?" "No." "'Ecume du mer'." "What does that mean?" " Meerschaum in french." "Is that bath salt?" " Yes." "And why is it not written in spanish?" "I don't know." "'Crème vitalizant pour le poitrine'." "And that?" "Cream for the breast." "So it grows?" "No." " Then I can't need it." "Look what I found." "There's 'Ana and Christina' written on it." "There's 'Ana and Christina' written on it." "Vicky found that." "Take it!" "Who's Christina?" "A gir.. a friend, who lived here a while." "Did she work here?" "No." "That night on the phone, why didn't you say anything?" "Because it's not important." "I'l bring it to her tomorrow." "I wanted to discuss something that has to do with work." "More coffee?" " No, thanks." "I think I know you." "You're not a woman with stupid, old-fashioned principles." "You know, sometimes pregnant women come to the consultation-hour, married or single, who want to abort their baby." "Yes." "In the first three months it's easy and I also do it in that case." "I can do it alone but it's better to have help." "Would you help?" "Yes." "Follow me." "Do you smoke?" " No, thanks." "I've quit a week ago." "Are you sure that you want it?" "Yes." "Aurora, it's your problem but it's my duty to advise you." "You're not married, live with your parents and... that you're pregnant is an accident, so to say." "Right?" "Yes." "You yourself say that you're not sure who of the two is the father." "To become mother is serious." "Yes, but I want to have it." "A woman that gets pregnant want's to keep the baby, that's logic." "But then the doubts come." "A abortion before the end of the third month is uncomplicated." "But after that a easy operation becomes a dangerous intervention." "I can still help you in the next 2 weeks." "But not after the twentieth." "Lourdes Navarro." "Follow me." "Comeon in." "Hello." " Step inside." "This way please." "You can give me your purse and your coat... and undress." "You can keep on the blouse and the bra." "Mrs. Doctor will be here any moment." "Some do it without tranquilizer, but I prefer to give some Pentotal." "Count slowly from one to ten." "One, two," "three, four." "This is the spoon to abrade." "To make the fetus loose, without harming the whomb." "There used to be a risk, but nowadays it's a harmless operation." "There." "All done." "Pass me the bowl!" "The placenta didn't even get damaged." "I did not think it would be grown that far." " Of course it is." "It's three months old." "What am I gonna do with it?" " Throw it away!" "Good day." "It was time that we got to know eachother." "Don't buy here, follow me to Antonio." "He's better and also cheaper." "I'm hardly going outside because I take care of my sister." "So I've only seen you through the window untill now." "And the stairs in the house kill my legs." "Mrs. Doctor must've told you about us." "No." " Not your daughter either?" "Vicky?" " She visited us yesterday." "It was time to have a kid in this house." "Children are light for a home." " I don't understand you." "My sister Asunción who's almost entirely paralized and me... are the owners of the house in which you live." "Both buildings are connected together through the door on the stair landing." "Tell the doctor she shall open if I knock on the door!" "She should not forget that it could be an emergency." "Of course." "This is Antonios market stall." "How are you?" " Hello." "My four apples please." "Put them in the basket for me, my child." "I don't want to use this hand." "I'm carrying christ in it." "The house is full with saints." "They scared me." "That's what you get for being nosey." "Want some more mash?" " No." "You should open when she knocks." "She's bored." "She want's to get over here, to blather and put her nose in everything." "I want to brick that door up since a long time, but she doesn't allow it." "Why does she have all those saints?" "Mania." "The family used to live here too, but they died one after another." "My parents came here." "They're both old virgins by the way." "One paralyzed and the other one half crazy." "You're single too, aren't you?" "Vicky." "Maybe I'm abit crazy too like the neighbours." "On or off?" " Off." "That's how I like it." "Good night, princess." "Till tomorrow." "I didn't want to mention it infront of Vicky, but this woman always spies around." "I think she'd denounce us." "Watch what you tell her." "Don't worry." "Since you take care of your hare and put abit rouge on, you're looking much prettier." "Till tomorrow." "Till tomorrow." "You have your day off at mondays, right?" " Yes." "Mine's at wednesday." "What would you say if one of us would change?" "What for?" "If we'd have our day off on the same day someone could be here all the time." "The Senora would have to agree." "I'll tell her." "What do you think about my daughter?" " She's very lively for her age." "I have three." "Two are married and the youngest has a boyfriend and is in college." "Teresa, who's Christina?" "You'll have to ask the Senora." "Christina used to live here." "The Senora was always very lonely." "Talk with her!" "See you tomorrow, and thanks for the help." "See you tomorrow." "I've seen that Teresa left." "Because you're alone," "I wanted to acompany you for a while." "Sometimes at the communion with my sister," "I find some sort of powder between my fingers." "And I think that christ is there too." "Do you understand?" "I think I do." "That's why I always carry gloves." "The potatoes will taste much better with a bit oregano on them." "I use a reciepe that I've found." "It was from Christina." "But Christina couldn't even fry an egg." "Do you know why Christina left the house?" "She always argued with the Doctor." "The poor girl has no luck." "She let's friends live here from time to time because she's so lonely." "Young women in your age." "Have it been many?" "As far as I recall three in the last two years." "They all were unthankfully." "Mrs. Doctor took care of them." "Bought them clothes and gave them money." "But after some days something must've happened, that the girls took their things and left." "Sorry but, where do you know that from?" "Oh girl, in a house like this with walls like paper, even if you concentrate not to hear anything..." "Yes, of course." "We're all gonna die, they'll kill us." " Stay quiet you idiot!" "Don't touch me you tosser!" "Six and the green one is the seventh." "Think about 3 wishes!" " Comeon." "Done, One, two, three." "You did it!" "Yes?" "Who's that?" "One moment please." "Mom, it's for you." "A Javier." "Yes?" "I can't talk now." "It'd be better tomorrow." "And don't call here anymore!" "Don't ever pick up the phone anymore." "Understood?" "I've added the results." "Thank you." "That was the neighbour." "At Dona Consuelo?" " Yes." "Some years ago she offered me money if I'd leave the house so she could sell it." "If it's enough to buy an appartment I'll go." "I only need a couple rooms for my office and... and only one bedroom." "Results for Galimanini." "Mry." "Lopez Puente, positive." "Carballo, negative." "Alonso-Ramirez, negative." "Oyero, positive." "She was worried sick, she already has twelve." "Gomez-Roca, positive." "Guzman, positive." "That only happens to a fool." "Why do you let him use you like this?" "It's for sure gonna be the same as with Vickys father." "Can't you say 'no'?" "Don't be stupid!" "Do you want a child from someone who you don't care about?" "You can hardly feed Vicky and now you want another baby." "Not with me." "Not in this house." "It's one thing to help out, but it's something entirely different to be used." "I thought that in my, in this house... would be friendship and love." "That one helps the other." "I was always alone, Gloria." "Very lonely." "I want to have my child." "Good." "Think before you answer!" "Okay?" "Okay." "Would you like, to get a sibling?" " Yes." "Really?" " Of course, mom." "That'd be really good." "Go to the waiting room, I'll call for you in a minute." "Gloria, please step inside for a moment!" "Inside." "The test of Mrs. Hebillate, was positive." "This is Gloria." "She knows about everything." "She does not want her baby." "I have no idea how this happened." "My husband and I prevent." "And we already have three, do you understand?" "Und... well," "Me and my husband talked alot and, the kids should have it good." "One more would be a burden." "This seems to be the most reasonable, don't you think so too Gloria?" "Yes." "You decide when." "It's no problem in the first three months." "After that it can get dangerous." "Are those school marks?" " No." "The Senora said I should give them to you." "What does it say there?" "It's about the reservations for the next class." "And to tell that they raised the charge." "Aguinaga, positive." "Sanchez-Ortega, negative." "Gomez-Parra, positive." "That's all of them." "Have you already heard about the new staff appointment scheme?" " What?" "They say they'll fire more than 20 employees." "Let's see what happens." "When are you in the third month?" "What third month?" "In 2 days." "More pudding?" "Teresa makes it very good." "Me, yes." "Javier, if you help me, I'll get it." "if you help me, I'd get it" "if you help me, I'll get it." "Yes." "Can I talk to Mr. Javier Pena?" "He is in his holidays since a week." "This is his home, right?" " Yes." "Did he leave an address?" "No." "And we don't know when he'll be back." "Okay, thank you." "There should be something good on TV next sunday afternoon, but no, you can only decide between books and siesta." "I'm already over the 3rd month." "Huh?" "Yes, more or less." "This is the test from the hospital." "I think everything is okay." "We'll do it today." "Okay." "Hello mommy." "Because everything is closed she chased me to a drugstore with emergency service." "Let's see if you like it." " She payed it herself." "I don't know how she safed money for this." "It had one with a little mouse head but that one was entirely white." "This one is more beautyfull, don't you think?" "Yes." "Do you think the baby will like it?" "Very." "What is wrong with her?" "Yesterday evening I said that we never can be sure what sex it will have." "Yes, I know that." "It's also possible that it won't come." "There can be problems." "And the baby doesn't come." " Why not?" "That's how things are." "Maybe you'll have a sibling in the future, but at the moment probably not." "Okay, I'll keep this untill it's time." "Good." "Is she sleeping?" " Yes." "Lay on the table!" "Can you do it alone?" "I've got routine now." "I give you Pentotal, you'll only sleep for a short time." "Count from one to ten." "One." "Two." "Three." "Four." "It's fully developed after 2 months." "You are not allowed to ever touch your shame." "Not even if you take a bath." "It's only meant for two things." "To give birth and to sin." "To give birth." "With three months it's finnished." "Mrs. Gonzalez positive." "It's finnished." "It has to be good." " It's finnished." "It's a sin to touch yourself." "After three months." "It's sin." "With three months it's finnsihed." "With three months it's finnsihed." "It's sin." "Gloria, it's all over already." "How do you feel?" "Good." "You've only been away for four minutes." "Let me help you to get up." "It's more comfortable in your bed." "Come Gloria." "Come already." "You've done the right thing for Vick and yourself." "Calm." "I'll go downstairs and clean everything up." "Today nobody helped me." "Would you like something to drink?" " No." "I'll be back in a moment." "Vicky?" "Vicky?" "What are you doing here?" "I woke up and got up to play." "It's to late to play now." "You have to go to school tomorrow." "Comeon, we'll go to your room." "Okay." "Why don't you take the doll with you?" "It's better for her to be here." "Nothing can happen to her here." "Should I switch off the light?" "Not today." "Sleep well!" "Everything is okay." "How are you?" "How do you feel?" "Good." "Is something wrong?" "No." "I'm just abit tired." "See you tomorrow." " Till tomorrow." "Children should be the first on the table." " I'm sorry." "That's what you get from playing at night." "You've slept in." " Yes." "You don't have to go to the hospital today." "You can stay in the house." "I rather go." "They cut down on the employees." "They want to fire more than 20." "If they do that there'll be a strike." "I'm worried since Julia told me about it." "I'll talk to the president today." "I'm sure he'll tell me if it's true." "Mademoiselle, your school." "Later." "See you later, Vicky." "Study good!" "Bye." "Good, here we are." "Later, Vicky." "What do you have there?" "School stuff." " And that box?" "I've found it up in the attic." "It was empty." "Hurry, we're late." "See you later, my little one." "Yes?" "Who's there?" "She's not here." "From who?" "Can you hear me?" "Do you hear?" "There was a message for you." "someone called without telling his name." "Yes, I've seen it already." "Tomorrow night Marta Requena comes." "She was here on tuesday." "Will you help me?" "I'd rather not do it." "Why not?" "I don't feel so well since that night and I try to forgett it." "But if you need me I'll do it." "It's okay." "I need time." " No problem." "No, honestly." " It is okay." "See you tomorrow." "See you tomorrow." "Something wrong?" "Don't you hear that?" "That's Vicky in the rockingchair." " No." "She's in her bed." "I've just seen her there." "I didn't want to tell you untill now, but when I left you in your room and went downstairs to clean up, I took..." "I took the bowl to throw the fetus away, and it was gone." " I don't understand." "It disappeared." "First I thought about the old hag from next door." "Then I thought I've thrown it away myself." "But in the same night, later, I found your daughter awake up in the attic." "So?" " I don't believe in coincidences!" "And especially not in anything supernatural!" "There could be a cat in the attic." "But that it has its babies in the cradle is strange, don't you think?" "And that the little ones are covered in a baby cover?" "There was a spot on the stairs to the attic last night." "A spot?" "Like water." "A bit more sticky." "Like snail slime." "Follow me." " Where to?" "In your daughter's room." "I want to know what's in the box that she carries around with her." "Vicky." "Vicky." "What time is it?" "Vicky, where's the box?" "What box?" "The tin can, that you found in the attic." "What do you want with it?" "Where do you keep it Vicky?" "I think..." "I think I left it in school." "Okay." "Sleep now!" "Why should Vicky do that?" "If it wasn't her, who else could it be?" "Yes?" "Ana, I'm gonna take a walk." "Is something wrong with you?" "I don't want to be here when that girl is coming." "That's your choice." " See you later." "What are you doing?" "I'm doing homework." "It's already after ten." "Go to bed now!" "Okay." "And mom?" "She went outside for a moment, she'll be back soon." "It's ringing." "That's gonna be your mother who forgot her keys." "Good night." " Good night." "Hello, Marta." "Step in!" "Are you alone?" "It would've been better if you would've come with a friend." "Don't worry, everything will be fine." "Come inside!" "Take a seat." "Do you smoke?" "No." "In this country people talk alot of rubbish." "Some girls think it's about life or death in these operations." "But that's not true." "Why did you come alone?" "I'm only here for a short time and hardly know anybody." "And your boyfriend?" " He's married." "Okay." "Are you sober?" " Yes." "Let's do this then." "Undress yourself!" "Marta." "It's over." "Did you feel anything?" "No." "Rest some and you're ready to go in 20 minutes." "That's all?" " Yes." "I'll write you a reciepe." "Come see me in 7 days!" "I'll make me a coffee and a soup for you." "That'll be good for you." "Thank you." "Marta?" "Ana." "Ana?" "Help me Gloria!" "Senoria, is that door locked at night?" "Why?" " You're not gonna believe it, but since some time I find garbage and food rests on the floor." "There's many cats in the yard." " Yes?" "Yes." "One time there was one in the attic." "Don't worry!" "We'll lock it." "The ultrasonics don't harm the fetus." "X-Ray can be... dangerous instead." "So this is my baby?" "Yes." "It's very lively." "Look, how it's moving." "It's very strong." "Very." "Don't act like this Gloria!" "It has to have been somebody." "Somebody and not a ghost or any creature hiding in the house." "I'm not so sure about that." "Ask any doctor if a fetus of two, three or four months could survive on it's own." "He'd think you're joking." "It has to have been somebody." "Vicky?" "Vicky." "Vicky." "Vicky." "Vicky." "Vicky." "I know you're there." "Come out!" "What are you doing there?" "Play." "Go back to your room!" "Don't come up here!" "Are you deaf?" "Yes, soon." "Soon means now." "What's going on with you?" "Why don't you listen to me?" "What are you doing here?" "Playing, I've told that already." "Come here!" "What are you hiding there?" "Nothing." "What are you hiding there?" "Nothing." " Show it to me!" "It's my box." "My tin can." "Give it to me!" " No!" "Give me the box!" "No!" "I've never hit you untill now." "Hand it over!" "It's mine!" "You didn't want it but I did!" "Give it!" " No." "Let go off the box immediatly!" "No." " Let go!" "Let go!" " No!" "Let me have it, It belongs to me." " Let it go!" "I wanted a little sibling and you've prevented it." "I know it." "That is over." "Over, Vicky." "Forgive me!" "Forgive me!" "Forgive me!" "The three of us have to leave this house for a couple days." "Take a break." "What do you think Vicky?" " Good." "And you?" " I'd have to take some days off." "If that doesn't work, I'll write you an attestation." "Some weeks in another place will be good for us." "Where are we going?" "To the sea." "Wherever you want." "It just has to be close to the sea." "Good day." "I'm calling from the doctors office of Ana Torres." "I'm calling because we've moved your appointment from Monday the 1st, to tuesday, the 26th." "Yes at the same time." "Look, we're here in spain." "Yes, here." " No, not in Paris." "Here." "Look." "Okay?" "To the beach of Huelva, yes?" "Vicky, would you like to take the box with you?" "Gloria!" "What noises was that mommy?" "Nothing." " But mommy, they woke me up." " It was nothing." "I'm gonna lock you into your room." "Wait there!" "I don't want to be locked in." " You wait till I'm coming okay?" "Our things are already packed." "The two of us will leave." "We'll leave forever." "No." "No." "Don't come any closer!" "He's there!" "There!" "Where?" "He killed Ana." "And now he want's to kill me!" "He's there!" "There's nothing, mom." "He's there!" "I am here." "Do you see me?" "These two tried to kill me, they tried to kill me." "I just want to be left alive." "I want to live." "I want to live." "I want to live." "Life." "Life." "I wan't that they'll let me live." "Life."
