Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
hello are you there? it was not because of the clothes she wore, it's obviously one of the most beautiful gown shown on stage... It might be something of what she had said... I'd seen the show once and already had noticed one thing she said which is against the whole idea of the show.

And, how is it here, Krisi? Tell me more.Krisi wrote:here it's not like that!
Like many others, I changed my lifestyle, from the moment I've connected my PC to the internet for the first time. Is it a problem? I have not ceased to be who I am. I've brought here my set of advantages and disadvantages. The lists of my preference and things I disregard have hardly changed much.
I believe that being friendly and quiet on forums is as good as in real life. I believe that it's good to make people smile, and it's bad to offend them. I believe that it's possible to make friends all over the world and appreciate this friendship. I hope that you smile while reading this.

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
...Shadows danced upon the wall, lit by the dim light of the candles. "You seem to be haunted by ghosts, don't you?" - I asked. As far as no answer has followed, I turned around and soundlessly disappeared in the total darkness of the corridor, leaving behind me blank space of the parlor and the lonely figure of a lady, who kept staring at the very spot where I stood, and suddenly fell senseless.
And at once, candle flames have become smooth and level, indicating no signs of my perturbing presence in the room

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
...My existential dread is driving me crazy. That lady in green seem not to be able to hear me, yet she can recognize my presence. This is read in her stiff posture, nervous look and trembling fingers. What should I do? Will I try to reveal or disguise myself? A mistake can cost me dearly. She may wish to get rid of me by hiring those damned ghost hunters. I hate the idea to be banished from my ancestral castle. That would be a big shame. I have to think it over carefully before making my move. That's it! I'm going to the library, my favorite place to develop a strategy.

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
...Bad luck! The library turned out unavailable. Five nuns have occupied this very territory, which I considered my private. Three of them were reading peacefully, the fourth seemed preoccupied with thoughts, and the last one prayed. Technically, I didn't mind to share this large room with them, especially that all five had been making no more noise than clock ticking. But unfortunately, that was not possible - shadows don't get along with prayers! I contritely sighed, which apparently made the nun to pray even more diligently, and left. The only secure hideaway surely remained the North tower, to which I unhurriedly set off.
On my way to the tower I indulged in thoughts. What the need could make the nuns to visit this place? Where have they come from? There was no single convent in the radius of ten miles. I have got too many riddles, and I was not able to cope with them all at once...

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
…Those, who think that staying in abandoned tower in the night was damn romantic and fully complied with the circumstances, can say that again – that was just a quintessence of romanticism! There was dark there, save for a moonlight coming through a narrow window under the ceiling. Large cobweb in the corner and absolute silence created an atmosphere of noble sadness. In the darkness I became visible and could enjoy my reflection in the mirror. However, the sight was not much pleasant as my jaw had been dislocated in result of the fall from a ladder. I tried to set it in place but did not succeed. Then I occupied a rocking chair and plunged in thoughts. Analysis turned out very pleasant pastime in my present state, apart from providing exciting moments to the living beings.
Here is the brief review of the events preceding my arrival to the castle and my untimely decease. A month ago, just before Christmas, I've got a letter from a barrister who informed me that my uncle has unexpectedly died after falling from a horse. He also advised me to arrive without a delay to my uncle's residence five miles to the East from Chichester, West Sussex, and take possession of the estate as its only heir. Next morning I stood at the gates of this magnificent building and was heartily welcomed by Hector, the butler. He suggested that I take a look on inheritance documents before lunch is ready. We proceeded to the library, where I skimmed through the papers. Then Hector asked me to take the Family History folder from the top shelf. I climbed up the ladder, reached for it, lost balance and collapsed. On my way down I bumped my temple against the corner of a table and instantly died. The last words I heard were 'Lunch is ready, sir!'
Surprisingly, old Hector hasn't lived long after that too - he quietly passed away the next day, while telling the story of my preposterous death to the bailiff...

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
if the return is only $68.00/month will you still work hard or if you really cannot make both ends meet and even have no more time to work harder how can you work hard? it's just quite obvious that you know from the start that the return is big that's why you are working hard...

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
I felt lost reading your msg both. Feel like I entered a kafkaian's world. like trapped in a stage where some events are occuring, such events we can't get the sense (meaning) and the secret. are we in some fourth dimension?

Oh, that lady in green! I believe it develops wrong attitude towards me from her side. I don't know why, but she stops smiling in my presence; do I look so frightening? But I'm almost invisible actually! Listen, I can't stay in the tower all the time - it's my castle or it's not my castle?! I need have a walk, at least at nights. After all, it's healthy for my old bones...

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
...Kamala - that was her name - was a step-daughter of sir Graham, an old friend of my uncle. As I have learned, after an untimely death of sir Graham and his wife - they were killed by fallen tree during a walk - my uncle as a noble man offered fifteen year old Kamala move to the castle. She agreed and, since that moment, has become twice stepdaughter. Unusual name of Kamala made me to speculate about her origin, and one day my guess-work came true: the son of a stableman told his friend in a private talk that sir Graham had married while two year staying in India to a younger daughter of a maharaja.
So, that beautiful but suspicious young woman, granddaughter of an Indian ruler, was my opponent in this chess game, with my very existence at stake...

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
I think we all have and must face our adversities in life so, this is not an issue. We should be careful in touching other people's lives because others just want to face their sufferings silently or quietly.
Since when I was small the advice they have been giving me is, these trials or test in our lives won't be given to us if we cannot bear them... I really wonder if there's truth to this now... I know, they know what they did.

Why is the system here connecting some lives of people to another. hello, they don't even know you, neither do I... you are the culprit who make people quarrel and fight. some (including me) are being blamed for reason's we don't even know... maybe you are earning big from this kind of system but we are not. honestly speaking, there are times I even have nothing to eat...

if you cannot advise something good to your own family, what good can you do for others.
you just showed your own vested interest in that situation.

Re: KNOCK! KNOCK! Are you there?
It's really so strange to see that if they found out that they cannot use you because you are being specific even on small things they will just leave you... :( ... this is just how they steal someone's identity too, once they realize that they cannot steal your identity they run away. That's how they are too when you are faced with problems that they themselves have created so that they can have a comfortable place in the midst of disarray... they are quick to abandon you too.
