GINA: Good afternoon everybody and welcome once again to your favorite program: Literary Nightlife!  (The public applauses and enthusiastically greets the host)

GINA: Thank you, thank you. (Waving her hand to the public)

As you know it, my name is Gina and tonight's program we will be discussing about one of the most popular dramas ever put on stage: “The Spanish Tragedy, which contains the lamentable end of  Don Horacio and Bel-imperia; with the lamentable death of Old Hironimo”

Hmm, I think I already know what it is all about (the audience laughs).

Now, let us meet the author so that he can tell us a little more about it.

Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome THOMAS KYD!

THOMAS KYD: Thanks for having me. (Smiling)

GINA: The pleasure is mine. Mr. Kyd, have you ever thought that your work would become so famous?

THOMAS KYD: Not at all, to be honest. One day I finished it and the next day I was invited to play it in Germany and Holland! As a matter of fact, it has been already translated into two languages: German and Dutch. Everything seems it has been very well received by the European public.

GINA: I am glad to hear that. Congratulations once again on your great success!

THOMAS KYD: I appreciated it, it was an enriching exper-

GINA: However, (Interrupting Tomas) not everything is peachy in your life, isn’t it? (Smiling mischievously)  How true is it that your relationship with Christopher Marlowe has been sailing on troubled waters?

THOMAS KYD: You got me, you got me. I can't lie. (Laughs nervously)   We've gotten into some trouble around. (Adjusting his tie)

GINA: Oh please, tell us more.

THOMAS KYD: Sure, I will but let me talk with my lawyer first (The audience laughs).

GINA: Seriously, How did you both get into prison?

THOMAS KYD: First, I was suspected of having attached some seditious libels at a certain wall. Then, I was arrested. I had to accuse Marlowe of atheism to stop them from torturing me.

GINA: I am sorry about what happened.

THOMAS KYD: Don't worry, it's all part of the business.

THOMAS KYD: At the moment I will keep on working on some projects that I hope will not be lost. Among them are: the tragedy of Hamlet, the prince of Denmark, Ur-Hamlet... (The shackle rings)

GINA: Oh no! It looks like your time out of prison is over. Thank you very much for being here tonight. Good time.

THOMAS KYD : Anytime!

(The police come in and put handcuffs on his hands)

KAROL: Good afternoon to all our listeners and welcome once again to this new session of (drum effects sound) “Tell us more”. Today we have a special guest, this is William Shakespeare (applause effects sound).

(Interviewer gestures to the guest to indicate that he may speak)

SHAKESPEARE: Hello Karol (in a nervous voice) th-thank you for inviting me on the show today.

KAROL: It's a pleasure to have you here, and well... tell us a little bit about your new play, which by the way has attracted a lot of public attention.

SHAKESPEARE: All right, I'll try (sighs) this story is about an impossible love between 2 young people belonging to 2 rival families, never thinking that this love would lead them to a tragic end.

KAROL: (With a look of astonishment) Wow! Impossible love, now that's dramatic (laughs softly).

SHAKESPEARE: Y-yes (cuts off voice) sorry if I don't give too many details, I guess I'm better at writing than talking (laughs softly).

KAROL: No problem, if you feel comfortable can we go on with the questions?

SHAKESPEARE: Go ahead (speaks with confidence).

KAROL: Alright, tell us what inspired you to write your play, was it something personal or did it just pop into your head (looks doubtful)?

SHAKESPEARE: To create this story I was inspired by a poem by Arthur Brooke, it's a bit long but very good (shows a small smile).

KAROL: Wow (with animated voice), it's amazing to know that among fellow writers there is admiration.

Finally, could you tell us if more of your work will be released soon, we can't wait to read more of your creations!

SHAKESPEARE: That's something I can't reveal yet (laughs softly) but I assure you it's not over yet.

KAROL: Did you hear that dear listener?
Very good, we will be keeping a close eye on you William, thank you for being on our show today (in an animated and soft voice).

SHAKESPEARE: Thank you for inviting me.

KAROL: And to you dear listeners, thank you for being with us today, goodbye (closing music plays).

(Karol, signals to her team to cut the line on the air and smiles)

(The show’s music sounds. The interviewer and the playwright stand up, shake hands and sit in their respective chairs)

SHARON: (Smiling) Good morning, everybody! And welcome to your favorite show “Reading until dawn” (Applause). In the last episode, we were talking with Ben Jonson our controversial playwright who was the first poet laureate. In this opportunity, we have the honor to ask some questions to the greatest playwright of all ages, of course, I’m referring to William Shakespeare (Applause).  Mr. William, good morning, it is a pleasure to have you here, thanks a lot for accepting the invitation.

WILLIAM:  Good morning, Sharon, and viewers. The pleasure is mine, it has been a while since I have been on the screen.

SHARON:  Really? So, how do you feel?

WILLIAM: I have to admit that I’m a little nervous (Laughing).

SHARON: I feel you, Mr. William (Laughing). Well, let’s start with the questions. First of all, you are called the “Bard of Avon” right?

WILLIAM: Yes. (Nodding)

SHARON: What does it mean?

WILLIAM: Well, that is because of my nationality, I’m from Stratford-upon-Avon. Also, some friends give me this title in recognition of my stature as they called me a “great poet”.

SHARON: Oh! That’s nice, what pleasant friends. Another question, could you please talk about “Venus and Adonis”? One of your most famous lyrics.

WILLIAM: Of course, “Venus and Adonis” is a poem that I really like. I had the idea to write about themes such as love and pain, the powerful effects of passion, and the relationship between the immortal and mortal.

SHARON: I understand, also it is about human mythology, right?

WILLIAM: You’re right.

SHARON: Ok, and the last question is about the name of your wife and twins because we are sure that they all have beautiful names.

WILLIAM: I agree because I chose the name of the twins (laughing) they are Susanna and Judith, and my pretty wife is Anne Hathaway.

SHARON: Aww! What a lucky woman (laughing). Mr. William, thank you so much for your time, and answers. We admire all your work. I hope to see you at another opportunity.

WILLIAM: Thanks to you, Sharon, you’re such a good interviewer (Smiling and waving) goodbye.

SHARON: Bye! (Smiling to the camera) thanks for being here until the end. See you in the next episode.

(The interviewer stands alone on the stage, looks, and smiles at the camera, and then starts the program)

NAYELIS: (She shakes her hands) Good evening to all our viewers, welcome to your favorite program “A star is born” (pointing at the camera). Today we are more than pleased to have here a special guest (she talks measured), someone who has a captivating life story. Take a seat, be comfortable and receive with great delight Alexander Pope; an icon of English literature (She smiles, and claps).

ALEXANDER: (He smiles and waves to the camera. Then he shakes hands with Nayelis and both take a seat) Good evening Nayelis, thank you so much for your invitation, I feel honored to be here sharing my story with you all.

NAYELIS: (She smiles). Alexander all our watchers want to know about your life, and your process as a playwright. Tell us about your educational process, how was it?

ALEXANDER: (He smiles and holds his glasses) My educational process was somehow special. I was not accepted in any public school due to my parents’ Catholic convictions. You know, they were staunch Catholics, and it was not well seen. For this reason, my parents hired a priest who lived hidden in the neighborhood and taught me Latin, Greek, French, and Italian.

The education I received was accurate and complete, and it allowed me to produce a translation of Old Homer, which was a financial success in my life.

NAYELIS: It is incredible what you are telling us, despite this terrible situation you succeeded at being a really good playwright (she smiles). Continuing with your instruction, Alexander, who encouraged your youthful endeavors?

ALEXANDER: I got inspired by really close friends. They were a catholic family who lived in the same neighborhood at Benfield. When I was 15 years old, they encouraged me to write my first poem “Alexander, the hero of Rhodes”.

NAYELIS: (She makes an astonishing gesture). Great Alexander, undoubtedly, we did not fail at inviting you to our program. Finally, to close this enriching interview, tell us, what are your famous productions?

ALEXANDER: (He says sarcastically) All my productions are famous, you know! (He stops laughing) I am just kidding. Well, “Dunciad, the Essays on Man, Moral Essays, and Limitation of Horace” are known for being my greatest works. I have got awarded by society many times for these pieces of work.

NAYELIS: One more time, thank you so much Alexander for letting us know something about you.

ALEJANDRA: Good evening everyone! It’s my pleasure to welcome you to this magic show in which we highlight the most important authors of English literature thorough history (smiling to the public).

Today I’m going to introduce you to a very interesting dramatist that lived before the famous William Shakespeare, his name is Christopher Marlowe.

Everyone, please welcome this important author! (Everyone claps their hands).

(Christopher Marlowe walks to the scenery and sits in front of the interviewer).

CHRISTOPHER: Good evening everyone! (he raises his hand and greets the public).

ALEJANDRA: It’s my pleasure to have you here tonight Mr. Marlowe, how are you?

CHRISTOPER: I’m pretty good, thank you! How about you?

ALEJANDRA: I’m doing great tonight, I would like to say that I feel so lucky to have you here tonight because in this show we want to highlight your life. That’s why I want to ask you a few questions about you and your career.

First, I just want to add that I’m curious about your parents and their jobs. Can you tell me something about that?

CHRISTOPHER: Sure! (moving his head in a positive way).

My dad used to be a shoemaker, he loves that profession, that’s why I have very good taste in shoes as you can see (he shows his shoes to the public). And now talking about my mom well! She was the daughter of a former priest who had been deposed by Queen Mary.

ALEJANDRA: Wow, that’s interesting! What a curious profession your dad had. Now I would like to ask you about your college life. Where did you attend college? There was someone important you meet there?

CHRISTOPHER: That’s a good question! (smiling). I went to Cambridge and there I was so lucky to meet Francis Kett who as you know was called the mystic and had a tragic end because of his heretical and atheistical opinions.

ALEJANDRA: That’s a shame! It is so sad how religion and the opinions about it can change someone's life at that time. Well but not everything is sad! Let’s talk about your most famous tragedy and also about your special friend in life, tell me something about that.

CHRISTOPHER: Of course! well, I am so happy to present my famous tragedy that’s called Tambourlaine the Great I wrote it in two parts and also in blankvers. About my protector (he laughs a little bit), he was my most special friend, his name was Walter Raleigh, a man who made smoking an English habit and a very interesting topic about him is that he gave the name of Virginia to a large territory of the present U.S.A. In honor of the Virgin Queen.

ALEJANDRA: Oh my goodness! I didn't know that, I love how you smile when you talk about your life. It is such a pleasure to hear you.

I think that is all for tonight. Thank you so much for coming and being part of our show.

CHRISTOPHER: Thanks to you, it is my pleasure to be here tonight!

ALEJANDRA:  All right! That’s all for our show tonight I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Goodbye, see you next week with another author's life.

(Everyone stands up and claps).

KARINA: Hello William, welcome to Celebrity Night the only famous channel that gathers celebrities to know their personal life and if possible release their most interesting secrets of their past life, that is to say before becoming famous.

WILLIAM: It’s kind of you Karina (sickly voice), for many year I was waiting to be invited for you to this famous TV program, thanks.

KARINA: Yu’re welcome William. Time is short and I have many questions for you, so let’s start (Excited attitude). William what about your children Susan and Judith?

WILLIAM: Ohhh my dear ladies (Smiling), It has been 5 years Susan leaf us and she decided to travel to Colombia with the idea of enjoying  her life because she thought Colombia is one of the happiest countries  around the world (cough). From Susan’s childhood I pretty knew she will be an independent girl and I love the way she is living her life (Pride expressions). About Judith, she married two years ago to a psychopath man, I hate him (Resentment attitude). My dear lady is suffering physical violence (crying) and one day I’m going to kill him, it doesn’t  matter what all of you think (laughter).

KARINA: I think you have to talk to your family but if that doesn’t work I know a team of assailants that can you help immediately (laughter). It was just a joke. Now I would like to know more about your theater works tell us, are you still working on this?

WILLIAM: Definitely no, I’m 89 years  old and currently I have not enough energies to continue with these  activity. On the other hand, I leaf  this job  10 years  ago cause I prefer to enjoy my last years.

KARINA: That’s right William, I understand you completely, now final questions, what do you think about religion, do you believe on that?

WILLIAM: From many years I have had some troubles for this same aspect, people should not be aware of what other think (Judging look). But well I’m going to talk you what I think…. My parents made me believe in a religion that today I don’t practice, I respect and love myself but I don’t waste my time doing worship (Fake smile).

KARINA: Political, religious and educational aspects can create long discussion, I agree with you. I really appreciate you sharing this time with us. (Kiss William’s cheek).

FERLEY: Hello everyone! today, it is an honor for me to present one of the most
known poets of all time, let’s hear it for the so called founder of the English Essay
(He says this while raising and pointing out Francis Bacon), Francis Bacon!
BACON: (With shy voice but smiling) Hi there people! I hope all of you are doing
well…(He continues while moving his hands) It is a pleasure to be here with you
and thanks to Ferley for this warm invitation.
FERLEY: (Speaking in an excited way) No no no, thank YOU! it actually feels like a
privilege! (While moving his hands) It’s wonderful having you here with us (Closes
his hands).
BACON: (Moves his head up and down, trying to say “yes, yes”) I appreciate those
words, thanks (He smiles and shakes hands with Ferley).
FERLEY: Well Francis, (Hesitates and thinks) Mmm, may I call you Francis…?
(Smiles)
BACON: (Laughs in a moderate way) Ha ha! Sure, no worries.
FERLEY: Alright! So, this is simple, I’ll ask you three questions, and you answer,
you ready?
BACON: I am (Moves his head trying to say yes).
FERLEY: Ok, let’s get to it, first question: why is Francis Bacon called the founder
of the English essay?
BACON: Mmm, good question yet difficult to answer, you know? Well, I would say
it is because I was the first one to make an essay, but also because I attempted to
create essays which were loaded with meanings and ideas. What I mean is, I
wrote essays, in which, each line is meaningful enough , to be another essay. I wanted young persons to read my essays which were short, but they gave them
the right direction, to be away from wasting their time and concentrate on Nation-building, as it is based on practical wisdom. All things considered, my
essays mostly were, ten to fifteen lines maximum yet they contained the world of
knowledge in them.
FERLEY: Truly interesting and outstanding, of course because it’s Francis Bacon!
(He smiles), alright now let’s move onto the next question: Tell us a bit about
yourself and your family.
BACON: Alright, I was born in London, January 12th, 1561. I was a chancellor, I
went to France and I also got arrested some times (Both laugh). And now,
concerning my family, my father was lord chancellor of queen Elizabeth and my
mother was a highly educated woman.
FERLEY: Thanks Francis, now, something interesting and that all of us want to
know is how did you get arrested? And so, this counts as the third question, you
can tell us only one time.
BACON: I have to tell all of you the funniest one which was when I got arrested
because I wasn’t able to pay my debts (Both laugh at each other, the audience
laugh).
FERLEY: Well and there you have him! Francis Bacon! (Applauses)
BACON: (Shakes hand with Ferley and goes).

LEIDY: Good night everybody, I hope you all are doing great. Today’s show will be about John Milton’s life. So, let’s start.

LEIDY: Good night John, nice to see you. How are you tonight? Welcome (Giving him a cuddle)

JOHN: Good night, Leidy. It is my pleasure to be here right now, I am so excited thanks for asking.  (Smiling and moving his hands)

LEIDY: Well, in that case, let’s start, because people are more than interested about know the answers to some questions they have sent us to ask you. (People applaud)

JOHN: I am interested about all you want to know about me, so you can ask me whatever you want. (nodding)

LEIDY: How did you feel, or how did you react when your wife did not come back after visiting her parents?

JOHN: (Smiling) oh that was a bad experience, due to at that time I was really in love. I supposed that she had another man, I get furious. I just said into my mind: “well, it seems that you are not enough for her” and I have to admit that every morning I looked myself in the mirror, and I repeated the same words “you are an ugly man” I did not deserve something like that, but well that is how life works. However, I have to say that I learnt too much facing that situation.

LEIDY: (With a surprised face ) it sound  was so hard. But now, tell us a little bit about how did you decide to become a poet?

JOHN: (Putting his hand on his head) It was due to my father was a scrivener during 20 years, and I just started by reading his documents, and I really liked signatures, and one day while raining I started to write about where rain came from. Then the clergy-man who at that time was my private teacher read my sheet of paper, and he got surprised and motivated me to continue writing and so on. Of course, it was a difficult process but at the end of the day I always enjoyed it.

LEIDY: Nice to hear these inspiring words. People sent us this question: why did you get married three times?

JOHN: (Smiling) what a good question, I will give you a good answer. I have to say that writing made me understand that everything in life works under love. In other words, love moves the world. Initially I got married to the young lady who did not come back as you mentioned before. I fell in love with her due to she was more than gorgeous, kind, lovely, and sweet with me. The second wife, it was due to I get blind so she helped to me as a friend, and suddenly I fell in love again and we decide to get married, she was so important but unfortunately, she died in child-bed. And about the third one I just would say that owing to my loneliness I needed some to support me.

LEIDY: Thank you so much for being here, we really appreciate your disposition. We hope to see you in a next time.

JOHN: You are welcome; I will be more than glad. Thanks for the coffee. (The public applauses)

FAMOUS FIGURES OF LITERATURE

DAVID: Good afternoon, today we are pleased to welcome the famous John Milton.

(Applauses)

MILTON: Hello! The pleasure is mine. Thanks for inviting me.

DAVID: With pleasure. The reason for my invitation was to carry out a medium interview with you, in which we intend to ask you 3 short questions and end the session with your soul.

(Cheers)

MILTON: Of course. Why should it bother me that a person interrupted my eternal rest? (Awkward laugh)

DAVID: (Laughing) I am very sorry about that. Out of respect, I am about to start the short medium interview.

MILTON: Go ahead

(Trivia music)

DAVID: Where did you study?

MILTON: I studied at Oxford. A great feat, but it was done to the best of my abilities.

(Clapping)

DAVID: Interesting and very true. Not everyone can afford to enter such an ostentatious and privileged institution.

(The public nods their heads)

MILTON: That is how it is.

DAVID: However. Continuing with the questions, at what age did you enter Cambridge?

MILTON: At my 16 years. It was not very difficult after having said that he came from Oxford.

(The public is amazed)

DAVID: Is right. After all, background information is always helpful. Now, to finish, (Sarcastically) I would like to know about the highly acclaimed nickname that was imposed on yo-

BEN: (walking to the couch) Hi, thanks for inviting me (smiling)

ANGIE: It is a pleasure to have you here (excited) Well, today we would like to know a little about you and what you think. For this I am going to ask you only three questions.

BEN: Well, that sounds interesting, I am ready to answer (Nervous smile)

ANGIE: We have seen that you got married and have a beautiful family, so I would like to know what do you think of your wife? How would you define her?

BEN: That's a great question (laughing)

I'll define her in two words (counting)

She is a shrew and she is honest.

ANGIE: It is a particular definition, but respectable (smiling)

BEN: Yes! Frankly, although she is a perverse person, she is always honest.

ANGIE: Ok (confused)

Now continuing with the family theme, how many children do you have?

BEN: I don't remember if we had 3 or 4 children, unfortunately they all died and it has been extremely difficult to overcome this situation (sad)

ANGIE: Oh, I am so sorry, my condolences to you and your wife (sad and nervous)

ANGIE: I will ask you the last question, I heard that you are catholic, is it true?

BEN: Yes, it is true, I've been a Catholic for twelve years.

ANGIE: Great, and how was that process?

BEN: I met a Catholic priest in jail.

ANGIE: Interesting. Well, that's all for today. Mr. Ben Jonson thanks for coming.

you the founder of the English Essay. He is … (suspenseful silence) FRANCIS
BACON!
FRANCIS: (enter to the room smiling and waving) HI PEOPLE!!!!!!
GABRIELA: Hey Mr. Bacon. I’m really excited to meet you here. But, tell me;
how do you feel? (Smiling and shaking hands)
FRANCIS: thank you Gabriela! (Laughing very enthusiastic). I’m a little
nervous but grateful to have this opportunity. It's wonderful to see people
recognize me and my work. (Timidly greeting the public)
GABRIELA: of course, I can imagine how you feel and all that this has
brought to your life. You know (intriguing look) I heard that you had some
problems with the queen and you offended her. Why did this happen?
(Gabriela sits down and beckons Francis to follow her. He does)
FRANCIS: Oh yeees! (Timidly laughing) that’s right, in a parliament I was
giving a speech and she took my words like an offense. And in consequence she
didn’t offer me a position of state.
GABRIELA: OMG!!!! That’s crazy! And for that reason, was you arrested too?
FRANCIS: (Smiling) No, no, no. That’s another story. I was arrested the first
time because I was unable to pay my debts. And the second time it was because
I was accused of having accepted bribes.
GABRIELA: Oh okay. (Looking at the surprised audience and not knowing
how to continue) and now, are you writing something in your retirement?
FRANCIS: yes, in this moment I just finished a third and enlarged edition of
Essays. Its name is History of Henry VII.( smiling proud)
GABRIELA: I’m waiting to read it. I believe it could be very famous. That’s all
for today, Francis. Thank you for being here and four your stories!!!
FRANCIS: It’s nothing. Thanks to you and all the people who read my essays
and love them. BYEEEE!!! (He goes laughing and waving his arms)

JONSON’S REBELLIOUS WRITING AND ACTIONS

DANIEL: Hello everyone, today we are joined by the best and most rebellious writer, Ben Jonson (applause).

(Ben Jonson enters, bowing and taking off his hat)

BEN: I am pleased and happy to be here and to share a bit more of myself with you. As well as answering some controversial questions about me.

DANIEL: Well, (smiling) let's start with a question that had a lot of comments and doubts. We all know that a man died at your hands in a duel.

(Ben sighs and looks up, clasping his hands together)

Do you want to share with us the cause of that action?

BEN: Well, besides that was the first time I was arrested and put in prison. The reason was not relevant to many people.

BEN: I was drinking some beers in my favourite bar, I didn't know that fellow very well. We had only practised a few lines for the rehearsal of another play in which I would not be involved.

I was a bit drunk, typical of writers and actors at that time (laughing loudly). My favourite waitress, Margarette, a very nice, smiling girl, whom I was looking at with uncle eyes (hands in front of the public clearing "no romantic intentions") And this guy touched her buttocks and pushed her to the floor. Evidently, he was drunk, but so was I. (laughing loudly).

The bar fight took us outside. He threw me to the ground and grabbed my neck. I fell on some empty bottles and put one down his throat without knowing that the bottle was broken.

In conclusion, it was an uncontrolled drunken fight.

(Deep breather) However, you know what? The son of a bitch deserved it, he scraped my Margarette's knees.

DANIEL: (Eyes open in impression) There's your answer, folks. The reasons can often be serious in different ways for different people.

DANIEL: Ben! You mentioned that you had been arrested more than once. Did someone else touch your Margarette?

(Audience laughter)

BEN: No actually, it was because a lot of little sugar people were offended by my comedy. You know, groups of people. Like haughty, wealthy people. You know a long time ago women

of high society used to consume minimal amounts of arsenic to maintain their extremely white skin tone. Well, in one of my comedies I wrote that you could see their organs if you put a candle behind their back and looked at them from the front. (laughing loudly).

Also, because thinness was almost a social requirement and I made a comment in one of my comedies about a man telling a girl that if she continued with her diet, you could see her wisdom teeth from the other side.

You know? I feel that people should not be so delicate and should learn to laugh at the good and the bad things.

DANIEL: What was the worst consequence of these uncontrolled and controversial actions in your writings?

I guess the mark on my thumb. Because of that damned mark I could no longer enter many places, besides the twisted stares of people. However, it never stopped me from writing.

DANIEL: (Impressed) Wow! What often doesn't seem to make sense to other people can have a reasoned background.

Thank you very much for attending our program. Remember not to judge before knowing the reason!

(Applause).

LISETH: Good afternoon, everyone. Today I'm with the poet of poets as he called him Charles Lamb. Welcome Mr. Edmund, let's begin. So, tell me, where were you born? (Talking excitedly)

EDMUND: Good afternoon Liseth. It’s a pleasure to be here, and thank you for the invitation. Well, I was born about the middle of the 16th century in London. (Smiling)

LISETH: I understand that your father was a humble tailor, but he still gave you a good education, is this true? (Sighs)

EDMUND: Totally true, despite not having luxuries or money, my father helped me to get a good education first in one of the primary schools in the capital and then I studied in Cambridge. (Anxious)

LISETH: To end this interview, in your poems we have seen how to name a girl called "Rosalind", can you tell us a little about her? (With melodious voice)

EDMUD: Of course, (He’s nervous) for a while I lived in the north of England and there I fell in love with this girl, which is why I wrote about her in my poems, she was too important to me and I remember her with a lot of love and respect. (Covering his face)

LISETH: Thank you very much for your time. It was really a great pleasure to share this moment with you. I hope to see you soon to talk a little more, until next time. Bye bye! (Smiling)

QUEEN: As always, in this amazing space, we talk and get to know the most interesting people around the world. Especially the ones that touch our minds and make us travel to other galaxies.

Our guest for today’s emission is “The poet’s poet”, the unique Edmund Spenser… (Applause)

EDMUND: Good night everybody, and thank you, Queen, for the invitation, I’m glad to be here.

QUEEN: Oh no, thanks to you for coming, It’s great to have you. We’re going to have an amazing time together. You’ll see. And of course with this special crowd.

EDMUND: Yes, I can see that, hello again everybody (Smiling)

QUEEN: Ok, so, Edmund, how are you feeling today? How is life treating you?

EDMUND: I’m really happy, I’m writing what I love, which is poetry, and for the moment, I’m working as the secretary of Lord Arthur Gray of Wilton.

QUEEN: That’s great news… Now, here in this box, I have gathered some questions from our crowd, so, let’s behind dear Edmund

EDMUND: Yes, of course, it’s exciting.

QUEEN: So, the first question says: “How is the enigmatical Rosalind?” You used that name in many of your poems, how is she?

EDMUND: Wooow (Blushing and smiling). Ok, long story short, It was a girl I met when I lived in northern England, she immediately charmed me and I wanted to express all that in my poems. But her real name is Rosa. So, that’s it. (Smiling nervously)

EDMUND: (Laughing) Wow, ok. So, I’m talking with this girl, Elizabeth Boyle, we are going to get married soon, so yes, sadly, I’m not single (Laughing)

And concerning my residence, I’m moving to my new castle, called KILCOLMAN. So, life is good for me.

QUEEN: Wow, You better invite me (laughs) And well, that’s all for today’s emission people. Once again, thanks for accepting this invitation, it was amazing to have you and to know those new things about you. Please take care and see you another time. Thanks a lot, Edmund. (Applause and crying)

EDMUND: Oh no, it was really fun, I hope to come back. Thank you, Queen and people. See you later. Bye. (Shake hands as saying goodbye).

BEN JONSON IN THE LATE-NIGHT SHOW

(Jeisi enters the set and bows to the public )

JEISI: Good evening everyone, tonight is a special night since we have with us here a unique guest, let’s all welcome the marvelous actor and playwright Ben Jonson (Jeisi turns to her left with a smile and Ben Jonson enters the set)

BEN: Thank you very much for inviting me tonight.

JEISI: It’s an honor to have you here.

(Ben and Jeisi shake hands and sit in front of each other looking at the public)

JEISI: How have you been Ben? What can you tell us about your hobbies lately? (Pointing to the public)

BEN: Actually, things have been good for me lately, I got out of prison (winks to the public)  and I am writing again, I am looking forward to let you all see more of my work. (The public claps)

JEISI: I’m glad to hear that, and talking about your time in prison. (Jeisi speaks cautiously)  Can you tell us why have you been more than once in jail? If it’s not much of a sensitive topic. (Ben laughs)

BEN: Oh no! It is totally fine, to be honest, the first time there was a good reason, a fellow actor defied me to a duel and I won, of course it was to kill or be killed, I had not much choice (He extends his arms and immediately crosses them) .But the others were just because people it’s too sensitive, I offended the wrong people. You could say I am good at getting in trouble. (He smirks and Jeisi and the public laughs)

JEISI: Surely trouble loves you (Ben laughs and nods). Regarding your work, you are really good at writing comedies, how was the experience of writing “every man in his humour” with Shakespeare?

BEN: Oh yes, I like to write different genres, but comedies are my favorite, I like to see the funny side of life (He smiles). And writing with Shakespeare was a great experience, I like his writing style and we were able to work well together.

JEISI: I’m glad to hear that, you both are amazing authors, I hope you can show us more of your work in the future, thank you for coming today and share a bit of yourself with us.

BEN: No, thank you all for welcoming me tonight (he talks to the public), I had a good time and I love this show, I hope to come back. (He waves his hand to the public making a goodbye sign)

JEISI: We will invite you again (smiling). This is the end of tonight’s program, see you all tomorrow night at the same hour with a new guest (talking to the public).

(Jeisi makes a sign with her hand to Ben)

JEISI & BEN: THIS WAS THE LATE NIGHT SHOW! (Both speak with enthusiasm and smiling)

M. ALEJANDRA: Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome to the best program of literature. In this opportunity we have a great English poet noted for his satirical writings and one of the successors of John Dryen. So please, applause to our writer of today Alexander Pope . (applause)

M. ALEJANDRA: Welcome Mr. Pope we are glad that you are here in our show. Please, sit down. Feel like home. How are you? (Smiling)

ALEXANDER POPE: Thanks for the invitation. (He greets with his hand to the public).  It’s a pleasure to be here.

M. ALEJANDRA: Well, as you know literature has been a success for the whole world. It is the art where you can express something through written or spoken. But, I think that not all people have this ability, it is a process that needs a lot of passion and imagination.  So, Mr. Pope could you tell us something about your career, your life and some facts about that? (Showing confidence)

ALEXANDER POPE: Yes of course! Why not? (Smiling)

M. ALEJANDRA: Excellent. So, could you tell us a little about your childhood, is it true that you couldn't study in a public school? At what age did you start writing?

ALEXANDER POPE: Actually, I didn't go to public school because my parents were extremely Catholic and at that time there were penal laws against Catholics so my father didn't care about that and decided to hire a private tutor for me. The fun fact is that he was a priest who lived hidden in my neighborhood and taught me Latin and Greek, then I learned Italian and French. (thoughtful) and I started writing at an early age, at 15 I wrote the poem Alexander, the hero of Rhodes.

M. ALEJANDRA: Wow, interesting. Your neighbors admired you a lot. You were in the literary circles in London with the famous Dean Swiff. It’s clear that your writing career grew there. How is your writing style?

ALEXANDER POPE: Yeah, you are right. About my style is kind of comical with a good deal of satire and changing the sense of the words. I really enjoy it. (Settle down and smiling)

M.ALEJANDRA: You received the title of the master of satires due to your famous productions. But you also spent a lot of time working as a translator. How was that?

ALEXANDER POPE: Yes in fact, my main job was to produce a translation of the old Homer. Thanks to this work I was able to be quite successful financially and support my parents.

M. ALEJANDRA: That was amazing (surprised) you really stay as a great master of satire you are very creative with it. Well, Mr. Pope, we really enjoyed hearing a little bit about you and your career. We hope you did too. Thanks for participating today and for letting us hear how literature influenced your life.

ALEXANDER POPE: Thanks to you I did enjoy it. (Settle down and moving his hands to show appreciation)

M.ALEJANDRA: Dear viewers, we will see you in an upcoming broadcast with another famous writer. Have a nice day.

Mother, you will be okay, I am here protecting you, I'll never leave you alone. I really want to tell you why I am homosexual. Don't judge me, mom, please! I have to say to you that your brother Jorge has the main responsible for this. He abused me when I was seven years old, it was not just one time there were a lot of. I continued growing up and if you remember I never had a girlfriend at school. When I started college. I met the guy who started out as my best friend; Cal, who later became my favorite person and my boyfriend. He is the only person who knows what I am telling you now, he doesn't judge me for this, he accepts me, he loves me, and he helps me to become a better person.

I know you still don't want to accept it because of your religious principles, but mom, listen to this: what matters is what we are, not what we appear to be to fit in with society. My sexual orientation does not define me as a human being, as a son, or as a friend, you know that I am a person with values and that I do not seek to hurt anyone.

Mother, I love you very much, I hope you will be calmer now that you know the truth.

Hi there, this my work. Hope you like it :D

(André’s mother is locked in her room, she has been there for days, meditating, thinking about what she has to endure every day after her son died. She feels the guilt of not having been able to accept her son. She cries her heart out. Then, she falls asleep in her bed).

(While she’s resting, André appears in her dreams. She listens to him talking) ...

ANDRÉ: You know what, mom? There are moments in life one has to make tough decisions, moments when it seems there is no turning back. That's why I always thought one needs to have a strong will. A will that can afford anything, even when it comes to doing something irreversible. Mom, I’m sorry. Tonight, seems darker than the previous ones, isn’t it?... This room feels colder than usual, but why? It must be because your son is not with you tonight. Mom, I hope you can see beyond your pain. I hope you forgive me for failing you. This illness was hell. And all I wanted from you was to understand and accept me. Do you see? Now it’s late for you to help me. Now I have to go. Tell my sister and my dad I love and miss them (André’s mother sharply wakes up. She does not understand anything, but she tells her husband what André said in her dream).

(After kissing the balloon and trying to let it go, Andre’s mom can’t and instead is dragged away by the balloon. She flies high into the sky until she lands in a large field of flowers where her son waits for her.)

ANDRE: (running to hug her and crying) my dear and beautiful mommy, I’m so sorry, I have been missing you a lot. (He breaks away and looks at her into her eyes) You are the most important person in my life and I regret that you found out about my sexuality only after my departure. I was so anxious to tell you but I was afraid of disappointing you. I don’t want to hurt you, I never wanted to hurt you and I believe that my condition would bring a lot of pain in to your life. (He falls to his knees crying while he holds his mom’s hands). I’M SORRY, I’M REALLY SORRY. Forgive me for not being the one to tell you it, but now that you know I can rest in peace. (Whispers sobbing)  Please don’t suffer for me, take care of yourself and be happy.

(Suddenly Andre’s mom regains consciousness after fainting and feels her heart filled with the peace and love of her son)

(After Andre sees his mother crying and kissing the white balloon at the foot of his defeated tomb, he makes a presence at that moment and heals her anguish telling her the following…)

ANDRE: Dear mother, no one will ever love me as much as you have loved me. I know that nothing that happened is easy for you or any of the people who are part of our family. I want to tell you that you were always my example to follow in life, and now where I find myself I only have peace and thanks to you (Melodious tone of voice). You know? No one had worried about me more than you (smiles and caresses his mother’s face). I loved you, I love you and I will love you for the rest of the days, even if I am not present in body, you will always keep me in your soul and in your heart, well you know I loved acting, go see every play at the fair, I know I’ll be there even if you can’t see me, this was one of my happy places. I will visit you often in your dreams, just your promise that you will be happy. (Take her hand).

ANDRE: I pretty much know you love me as I love you, but my soul can't take it anymore. (Bent down his head with a broken voice)

ANDRE’S MOTHER: What's wrong, what's happening to you? (Extremely worried, she runs and hugs her son)

ANDRE:  For many years  I have been hiding it. Nowadays, I pretend to be someone who avoid his gist to be accepted by you and by society. (The young man took a second to take a deep breath. Similarly, an uncomfortable silence invades the room.)

ANDRE’S MOTHER: I am not understanding you... I promise you everything will be fine, just trust me. (The woman takes his son's hand and kisses  his forehead)

ANDRE: Dear mother... I'm gay, as you can hear I like men... no, it's not normal but, I can't control it (The young man kneels at his mother's feet, asking for forgiveness).

ANDRE´S MOTHER: (The woman embraces her son's body tightly, and with a tender cuddle tells her son). I was waiting for you to tell me about it in your own words... I accept you just the way you are... my little son. I love you.

Remember that you are unique, and it doesn't matter what other people think, just be happy.

(The woman wipes her son's face with a soft handkerchief, and together they embrace to comfort his cries.)

ANDRE: Oh mom. (Sights). I wish I had the courage to tell you my truth. (Gulps). I have been a coward, I wasn't brave enough to face you and tell you who I am. (Blinks two times before continuing). I know who you are, what convictions and beliefs you have, and also how conservationist you are. (Sights again). Because of all this, I have been afraid to talk to you, afraid of the way you would react to my words. (Gulps and sights). Mom, I am really sorry, I am in love with a man, I am gay, it wasn’t my intention to be like this but that’s the way I am and I don’t want to be afraid and in the dark anymore.

MOTHER: Son, take off those heels immediately! (Shouting with eagerness).

ANDRE: Why mom? (With a doubtful face) I want to be like you when I grow up and be married to someone like daddy (With an innocent voice).

MOTHER: No, that's impossible! You're a boy and you must like girls (Says with a nervous and uncomfortable laugh).

ANDRE: But Mommy (Sobs) I don't want girls, I want boys! (Starts crying).

MOTHER: But what are you saying, you're grounded, go to your room and think about what you said.

ANDRE: (Leaves the room in tears).

Andre’s mother, sitting and looking at the mirror, reads a letter written by Andre. While she reads the letter in Andre’s voice, she imagines the scene.

ANDRE: A lot of things have changed in my life (He nervously smiles and takes a deep breath)

ANDRE:  I don’t even know what is going on with me. (He bends down his face. Then, he continuous)

ANDRE: Suddenly, I just experienced new sensations, feelings, and emotions that never before had I felt. (While speaking, he makes some gestures with his hands)

ANDRE: I dare to say, it’s not me, but... (He hesitates) but, you know, I like how it feels.

ANDRE: I am dating (He stops a short moment, clears his throat, and restarts his announcement louder). I am dating a handsome man who I met in the theater. He makes me feel alive… free, and comfortable with myself.

ANDRE: Someday, I will dare to tell you this. (He laughs smoothly) Maybe! One day when I won't be judged for being who I really am, when I don’t have to fill my male expectations. In the meantime, I prefer to keep it secret.

(His mother with tears on her face, and sighing, closes the letter)

RACHEAL: (Sobbing) what is it? I don’t want to read anything. This is a painful moment for me. (Crying)

PENNY: I know that you are in a lot of pain, but before Andrew’s… hmmm you know (whispering) passed away, he gave me this letter for you. (Giving the letter to Racheal)

RACHEAL: I’m not able to read it. Could you do it for me?

PENNY: Of course (opening the letter). Hello mom, I don’t know when you read this, but I just want to confess to you that I’m gay and I feel terrible for disappointing you since I know that you disapprove of my orientation. However, this is who I am, and I hope one day you can accept it because you are the most important person to me. All the time, I live in hell, I was depressed and sad, and you know what? I forgive you, Racheal for all those horrible insecurities you have created in me.

REVELATIONS

(Andre's mother is unable to fall asleep. Then Andre's pale silhouette appears at the foot of the bed.)

ANDRE: I'm sorry I didn't tell you about my partner. Accepting me was very difficult. After having found eternal rest, I have nothing to hide. I just want you to know that it was never my intention to hide it from you, but because of your beliefs and prejudices it was very difficult to find a way to tell you. I only made myself present to express to you how much I love you, and that it is not your fault. It was very selfish to have hidden everything from you and I also hurt Cal a lot for not having admitted it in front of everyone.  I just wanted to tell you this before I left in peace and before you could feel resentment or anger towards me for not having confessed. Have a full life for me.

(Andre's silhouette fades as his mother, covered in tears, reaches out her hand to try to retain the memory of his appearance.)

MOTHER: Andre!! Are you alive?

ANDRE: I don’t know how to answer that mom, I’m sure, I’m in a better place now. I just can’t feel free because I’m always thinking about you (he starts to cry). I have never told you the truth about me and my sexuality.

MOTHER: You have the opportunity to be yourself now (she smiles with a tender look).

ANDRE: I was waiting for that answer mom! I never got the courage to tell you how much I love the company of a man in my life because I feel complete when I’m next to a man who can give the purest love I have ever felt. That’s why I was scared because I know how religious you’re and because I didn't want to hurt your feelings or disappointed you (he continuous crying and open his arms waiting for his mother’s hugs).

MOTHER: My dear son! (she approaches him and hugs him very hard). I know how difficult it was for you to tell me such a thing, I always knew you were different and I understand that now you can feel free, I just want to tell you that you’re going to be always in my heart and I never going to be disappointed with you anymore, you can fly with the angels now. I love you, my dear son, and I accept how you’re! (she cries while his son starts to disappear in her arms).

ANDRE: (he starts to float in the air and tries to open his mouth saying). I love you, mom!

ANDRE’S LETTER TO HIS MOTHER

(Four days after Andre's death. His mother finds a letter in his bedroom, on a shelf behind Andre's favourite book. His mother covers her mouth with trembling hands).

ANDRE: Dear mother, I never had the courage to express my true self to you. More than the fear of your rejection, I didn't want to hurt you. When I found out I had AIDs, I didn't want to drag you into the grief of having a gay son who was also going to die.

Forgive me for not confessing it to you. However, I feel that it was better this way. Since we lived very happily without you knowing me completely. The suffering you are going through is from now, not from before my death, and that gives me peace of mind. (Andre's tears and tears).

(Some parts of the letter were marked with Andre's tears)

Please be happy no matter what. Be braver than your child and live each day as if it were your last.

With my sincerest love,

Andre.

Andre's mother can only cry and sob from the helplessness of not having had the chance to know her son completely. However, she gets up from the floor and takes a deep breath. Because her son's advice is the only and most important thing now).

ANDRE: Mother wake up, don’t sleep so much! (Setting on the edge of the bed)

MOTHER: (She opens her eyes during sleep) Andre are you? Son, I am sorry… Come here, please.

ANDRE: (Caressing his mother’s head) I am here mother and I will always be by your side.

MOTHER: Son, forgive me for all the harm I did to you, for not allowing you to get out all those secrets that hurt you.  (Sad)

ANDRE: No mother, it’s not your fault. To be honest, although society does not tolerate homosexual relationships, I didn’t care. I always lived my life happily, I was happy until the last time.

MOTHER: Son, I am relieved to know that you were happy (crying)

ANDRE: You were the reason for my happiness, having you as my mother was my greatest gift (Hugging his mother and then he disappears)

MOTHER: (She wakes up and cries from happiness) Son, you will always be in my heart. I love you and I will love you forever.

meant to hurt neither your feelings nor your beliefs, and I probably have
clear how it feels mother…

understand that what we have to let go of what we cannot control and it's
not wrong to believe in something else, but just try to accept your son for

(Some time after the funeral, the mother cannot leave her room because of grief, so she uses a lot of medication and is trapped in a dream. But everything begins like she was awake, with the sound of the radio, then an interference starts and the mother thinks she hears Andre, but she is actually in the dream.)

ANDRE: Mother… Mother… I just came back to make you feel at peace, owing to my love for you. I can sense the troubles in your soul, and that torments my journey; therefore, I cannot leave this world without telling you the truth. You already know what I am about to tell you, it was just too hard for me before due to our reputation. My love is unique, I wouldn't say unusual or strange, everyone has the right to love and have affection for whoever no matter what. Thus, I open my heart and soul to men, with them I found the comfort and serenity that my soul required when I was alive. That is why I need to ask you a favour, give protection to my dear Cal, he was the love of my life and if one atrocious matter happens to him, I could not be at peace. Therefore, I beg you dearest mother, you are his salvation. I love you through eternity and beyond.

ANDRE: (Waking up) Mo… mother? Is that you? What are you doing here? (getting upset) Oh my God, I told Penny and Cal not to tell you anything! I did not want you to realize that I became… (Whining) I became… (Starting to cry) Oh my God, I can even say it (getting out of the bed and embracing his mother's knees) please, Mom, forgive me! I’m begging you, don’t leave me alone now that you know the truth! When you start suspecting I was gay, you barely said a word to me in two weeks. We were two strangers in the same house, that was the reason why I escaped to New York looking for the love you didn’t give me. Now that you know it, now that I am sick, will you leave me alone, mother? … (there is no response) … Mother? Where do you go? Why is everything black?

ANDRE’S MOTHER: (Starts yelling and crying). My son! My baby! Please forgive me! Come back to my hands, I won’t lose you again.

ANDRE: (Touch her mother’s head and tell her in a calm voice) Mother I don’t have to forgive you, you have to forgive me. I had to be stronger enough and tell you what I was living all this time until now you know a little bit more about me, my dreams, my projects, my adventures and it is sad! It was just because my friends told you. Now, I know that I would prefer to tell you everything on my own, I’m pretty sure we will delete that barrier and enjoy more time together but, no worries I will rest in peace with my conscience and feelings in plain peacefulness because we are connected again as son and mother I will protect you from heaven and promise me you will continue your life without any regret, we are going to share a fun, sweet, smile together.

(After André's funeral, an aura of melancholy and frustration saturates the environment, making it almost impossible for everyone to be together. Each of the members goes through their grief in their own way. However, the most destructive comes with the addiction of antidepressants and opioids from Andre’s mother. But she is now dependent on drugs that makes her have hallucinations. After some of those, she finally sees her son, and so, this encounter changes her mind)

(Andre’s mother lies on the floor) (Hallucination stars)

ANDRE: So… Hey mom, a long time no seeing you. I would like to say that maybe I’m okay, but I’m not. I can't get to my destination if I still have pending bills, and I'm not talking about money. I’m not in peace with myself because of you. Many times, as you know, I’m an evasive person and also, a coward … Fuckk! This is more stressful being here, Damn! God! Why I can’t tell you? Why I attend to the last of my life or even being in limbo for confessing something that I hide myself? I feel like the lump in my throat increasingly obstructs my reason. But I have to say it mom. I know, you want grandchildren, a house full of these, but at this moment that seems impossible. Mom, I am a homosexual person, I like men and my love is Cal.

(Andre’s mom is in her room brushing her hair and she heard some footsteps outside)

ANDRE’S MOM: Andre? Are you there? (Confusing)

(Andre kept silent and hid in his room)

ANDRE 'S MOM: Andre?

ANDRE: Yeah Mom. I’m here. (Scared)

(Andre’s mom felt a strange sensation and decided to go to her son's room)

She knocks the door and said:

ANDRE’S MOM: Are you ok? Let me enter.

ANDRE: Mooom I’m ok, don’t worry.  (he is annoyed)

ANDRE’S MOM: Please, let me enter Andre!

(She enters her son's room)

ANDRE’S MOM: What are you doing with my clothes? Are those my necklaces? (Angry)

ANDRE: Ugh mom, leave me alone!  (Broken voice)

ANDRE’S MOM: What happened Andre? Do you want to say something?

ANDRE:  Mom, I am really tired of pretending something I am not. I'm tired of having to follow the social model, I'm tired of backward minds and of not being able to be free for fear of rejection or not being accepted. Tired of feeling locked in a place where I can't express myself freely. (exalted and shaking his hands)

ANDRE’S MOM: Ok Andre but I don't know what that means. Can you say it better and more clearly? (looking confused)

ANDRE: Mom, can't you see it? or don't you want to accept it?  I don't want to hide it anymore, I'm gay! (Cries)

ANDRE’S MOM: (looking tenderly) Honey, what made you think that the person who loves you the most would judge you for something like that? Fortunately, I am moved by your essence and your being, your intelligence, your skills, your way of making me happy from the first moment I held you in my arms. Remember that love has no limits, dedicate yourself to love and loving does not make us different. Be free and never allow anyone to make you feel inferior because of the way you live and feel.  Andre, I don't have to accept that decision, I respect it and I admire the courage you have to let me know. come here, you are my greatest treasure.

(They embrace and special emotions are in the air)

ANDRE: Thank you for making me feel safe and I really wear your clothes because it catches my eye and is beautiful. Thank you for being supportive and opening your mind to my desperate thoughts.  (smiling)

ANDRE’S MOM: Don't worry you can be free and shine like you always wanted! (Kisses and hugs)

Scene 1

The Birthday lunch

(Eighteen years ago, a demon known as Lucifer, possessed a man until he committed suicide. Today, the man's youngest daughter turns eighteen and has no idea what awaits her…)

JENNIFER: (Arriving at home, then opening the door and closing it again) Hi mom! Hi Via. I’m at home. Hello? Is someone here?

OLIVIA AND MRS. MILLER: (Both screaming) SURPRISE!!

MRS. MILLER: (She hugs her daughter) Happy birthday to you, my darling. I feel so happy for you, I love you so much. (She sets aside).

OLIVIA: (She hugs her sister) You, my little sister, (She looks at her from head to toe) look at you now, a real woman, you don't know how happy I am for you. Look! I took this for you (She gives her a gift, a picture of their father). I restored it from the old photo album.

JENNIFER: (She gets emotional and cries while hugging her father's picture) Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This is the best gift I’ve ever received. I loved it! I miss him so much

MRS. MILLER: Oh, my baby, don’t cry, this is your party. Come here! (She hugs her daughter) We’d better go for lunch, I prepared a delicacy.

(The three women go to the dining room; the two sisters sit down and mom goes to the kitchen to serve. suddenly, Jennifer looks at her father’s picture, then she faints and falls off her chair).

JENNIFER: Oh… (grips Olivia's arm with a wince of pain) I felt very dizzy and my head is spinning, Via… help me (she faints).

OLIVIA: Jenn!! (She screams and runs to assist Jennifer. As Olivia helps Jennifer up, she calls out to her mother) Mom, help me! Jennifer fainted, she was unconscious. Don’t know what happened!!

MRS. MILLER: (Running from the kitchen. She is frightened and hysterical) What did you say?? What happened to my daughter??

OLIVIA: (She is frightened, about to cry) I don’t know, mom! she… she… she’s simply not responding, she’s not breathing!

MRS. MILLER: (She takes her phone) I’ll call Dr. Walker. She surely knows what to do or what happened. (She calls Dr. Walker)

DR. WALKER: (She is in her office and her phone rings) Hello? Ok! I’m on my way. Don't move your daughter! (She takes their car keys and drives to Jennifer’s house… When she arrives, Ms. Miller and Olivia are attending Jennifer)

MRS. MILLER: Dr. Walker, Thanks for coming. She just fell unconscious, I didn’t see what happened.

DR. WALKER: Ok, let me check (He bends down and checks Jennifer's pulse.) Olivia, get some alcohol, and you, Ms. Miller, help me put your daughter to bed.

(Olivia goes for the alcohol and Dr. Walker and Mrs. Miller take Jennifer to bed. Then, the doctor puts some alcohol in Jennifer's nose and she wakes up frightened).

JENNIFER: Wha… What happened? Where am I? Why are you here Dr. Walker?

DR. WALKER: Hi Jenn, are you ok? You fainted. Hope you feel better soon. (She holds her head).

JENNIFER: I hope so, I’m feeling quite weird, quite fine (The demon is who is talking, not Jennifer)

(Then, Jennifer bites Dr. Walker’s forearm. She bleeds and screams. Jennifer draws a devilish grin on her face)

MRS. MILLER: Jennifer, what have you done?! (scream)

JENNIFER: Mom, I'm so sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me. I feel like someone has taken over my body (Nervous about crying) I'm… I'm so sorry, Dr. Walker, sorry mom (Cries as she goes to her room).

(Her mother took the father’s picture and she already knows what happened)

Scene 2

The exorcism

(Since the mother thinks she knows what is going on, she decides to call a medium she knows)

DR. WALKER: I think this goes beyond a health issue, probably it is turning into something different. Maybe she needs professional assistance because it looks like a mental disease.

MRS. MILLER: Oh my God! Wait, wait, wait, wait. My husband before he died mentioned something to me about his family lineage which is something like a curse and goes from generation to generation. Why precisely with my dear Jennifer? I want to stop this but I can’t do it alone, I think that she needs spiritual assistance and not psychological assistance. I have an old friend that can help us.

DR. WALKER: Sorry! I can’t help anymore, now it is up to you, but I recommend you to do something quickly. She looks undead! (The doctor picks up his equipment and gets ready to leave) I have another appointment now I need to leave.

MRS. MILLER:  Thanks for coming! (Olivia walks the doctor to the door) Well, so…

(She called her old friend).

MRS. MILLER: Hello Marilyn?

MARILYN ROSSNER: Hello! Who is it?

MRS. MILLER: Hey, I’m Katherine Miller and I need your help now!

MARILYN ROSSNER: Katherine?! (surprised) Hey, what a pleasure…and how odd to have you calling me. What is going on?

MRS.MILLER: Actually, this call is an emergency. I really need you. Do you remember when my husband started acting weird before he died?  and some strange things happened in my house? Now, Jennifer is acting in the same way.

MARILYN ROSSNER: Damn Katherine no again! Are you kidding me? (Open her mouth surprised) Hold on! I am on my way to your house! I think this needs my special attention. Be prepared for everything from now on.

MRS.MILLER:(With a nervous voice she answers) I would greatly appreciate it! Please don’t be late. All of us are waiting for you.

(The medium goes to her car and starts to drive to the Miller’s house when she arrives, she plays the bell and Olivia opens the door)

OLIVIA: Welcome to the most frightening family.

MRS. MILLER:  Follow me this way. Jennifer is upstairs in her room screaming in different languages and using different voices.

(Marilyn and Ms. Miller walk all the way to Jennifer’s room)

JENNIFER: *demon voice* You don’t know who I really am! I’m the one you have waited for. (The demon starts to laugh in a loud voice) HA HA HA!

(Then the medium goes inside the room while she is listening to the demo’s voice and Ms. Miller stays outside)

MARILYN ROSSNER: What do you want from Jennifer’s spirit?

JENNIFER: *demon voice* I’m working on taking her soul away and her pain is what it feeds me now.

(With a broken voice) Help me! I don’t want to feel this anymore. I really want to die.

MARILYN ROSSNER: I connect with the 5TH AND 7TH DIMENSIONS, WITH THE DIMENSION OF LOVE AND WITH GOD HIMSELF. Dear angels and entities of light, I invite you to be present in this place (she is looking up, raising her hands) (The room gets brighter).

JENNIFER: *demon voice*Do you really think that those weak cockroaches are going to beat me? (The demon starts throwing many objects to the medium).

MARILYN ROSSNER: (Screams, she can't resist that negative energy, that her nose starts bleeding and then she faints).

MS. MILLER:  Lord please, help us! Are you alright Marilyn?  Oh my God, Olivia, help me.

OLIVIA:  Mom, what's going on here? Can I call 911 because it seems that Marilyn needs medical attention?

MARILYN ROSSNER: (Marilyn starts to wake up) No, Olivia, stop. (She takes a deep breath) Don't call them, we need to call the priest NOW!!

JENNIFER: MOM, HELP ME! Get this thing out of me. (screaming)

(Marilyn retrieves her telephone from her pocket and with such urgency, starts to dial the number of the priest)

Scene 3

The demon massacre

MARILYN ROSSNER: Please, priest, pick up the phone. (Says pacing the room)

THE PRIEST: Marilyn? Hello, what’s happening? (Asking with distrust)

MARILYN ROSSNER: It's the Miller Family. It’s happening again, please, come to their house.

THE PRIEST:  Ok, I’m on my way with my deacon (Says gathering his sacred equipment)

(The priest arrives and starts knocking on the door, Mrs. Miller opens the door)

MRS. MILLER: Oh, priest. I’m so glad you came; we really need you (Says this while taking his hands)

THE PRIEST: Don’t worry Mrs. Miller, I’m supposed to be here to deal with this demon (Says with a firm voice) This is my deacon, he is here to assist me (He says this pointing at him)

THE DEACON: Hello Mrs. Miller, nice to meet you even in these circumstances (He shakes her hand)

MARILYN ROSSNER: Priest, the demon has taken control over poor Jennifer; he’s getting stronger. (Say with desperation in her eyes)

THE PRIEST: Oh, God (Makes the sign of the cross). We need to hurry then; take me to her bedroom immediately.

(They all follow Mrs. Miller as she leads them into Jennifer's bedroom)

(In front of Jennifer’s room)

THE DEACON: Father, what do we need to perform the exorcism? The bible, holy water? (Say this while looking inside the bag)

THE PRIEST: We need all of it, this is not just any demon. (Enters the bedroom)

JENNIFER: (Screams from the top of his lungs) You can’t beat me, this body is already mine!!

(The priest and his deacon make the sign of the cross and speak in unison)

THE PRIEST : In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

THE DEACON : In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

THE PRIEST:  Come out demon! and leave this poor soul alone.

JENNIFER: HELP ME! (Screaming) This demon is trying to kill me, I cannot control my body, he’s controlling me. (Sobbing and agitated)

THE DEACON: Come on, we have to hold her or tie her down, the devil is too strong and can hurt us. Please, Marilyn help me up! (Looking at her)

THE PRIEST: Yes, restrain her. Quick!

JENNIFER: *demon voice* Leave me, are you afraid of me?

THE DEACON: Come on, Father! Begin with the exorcism because I don’t know for how long we can hold her (Says this while starting to sweat)

THE PRIEST: (Throwing holy water to the demon) I command you to leave this body and return to hell, where you belong demon (Showing the cross)

THE PRIEST: Say with me (Looking at his deacon) In the name of the father, of the son, of the holy spirit we banish you demon from this plane so that you return to the underworld.

THE DEACON:  In the name of the father, of the son, of the holy spirit we banish you demon from this plane so that you return to the underworld.

JENNIFER: *demon voice* (Pretending to be the deacon's grandmother) Campbell, darling, why did you leave me? I miss you so much, but it hurts. Stop, please.

THE DEACON: Grandmother…

THE PRIEST: (Interrupting) Ignore his words, he's just trying to confuse us.

JENNIFER: *demon voice*Shut the fuck up!

THE DEACON: Jesus took the head of the possessed and anointed it with an acetic in order to expel him. (Throwing blessed oil at the possessed) Oh Lord, please use this concoction to cleanse your servant from all evil and danger. In the name of God!

JENNIFER: *demon voice*(Writhing while groaning in pain) Your god can go to hell!

(Jennifer closes her eyes and the whole environment turns into a prolonged silence)

THE PRIEST: (Sighs) The body must be allowed to rest for a moment to avoid any damage to the possessed. We'll be back in a bit.

(The priest, the deacon, and the medium were about to leave the room when suddenly Jennifer/demon wakes up and jumps out of the bed)

JENNIFER: *demon voice* (Screaming) Ahrg!!! I can't easily be beaten or banished. So now I'm going to kill you all.

(The demon approaches the priest and ripped his throat)

THE DEACON: (Screams) No! Priest! (He tries to jump on the demon/Jennifer)

MARILYN ROSSNER: Priest...I can’t believe this (The medium is frozen in place; she couldn't believe what was happening)

(The demon pushes him into the wall, and he falls unconscious, hits hard the head of the medium and tries to leave the room, but Mrs. Miller and Olivia are stone-cold under the door frame watching this sinister scene)

JENNIFER: *demon voice* I'll enjoy killing you (Looking at Mrs. Miller) and having you watching it all (Now looking at Olivia)

(The demon cuts Mrs. Miller's throat, blood is dripping everywhere, Olivia watches her dying mother with open eyes, and tries to run but the demon takes her by the throat and chokes her until life leaves her eyes)

JENNIFER/NOW LUCIFER: (Clears her throat) *with her normal voice* Now I am fully free. (grins sinisterly)

SCENE 1

(Lola, Lisa, Mile and Gaia enter murmuring. They go towards the center of the room)

LOLA: Ufff finally. Well deserved vacation! After this tremendous triumph. We are badass girls!

MILE: I still can not believe we won first place! (Jumping around)

GAIA: Hmm... I wish we won nothing (looking around) To be honest, these types of places thrill me! I sense there is something wrong here (praying the rosary).

MILE: We are very lucky to win this trip thanks to the dance festival. It was the best thing that could have happened to us.

GAIA: Well… honestly between the three options the most suitable one would have been visiting the museum. Don’t you think?

LISA: Yeah, that would be absolutely fine; however, Katlyn insisted we must visit this mysterious place. I don’t know why

(The four girls are looking at each other; then they raise their shoulders and continue walking. The nerd girl Lisa crosses es her arms and keep looking at Charlotte, Lady, and Katlyn entering towards the center of the room)

LISA: Come on girls, hurry up! (Looking around and taking notes on a notebook)

CHARLOTTE: (Speaking as she was tired) Are we almost there? These shoes are killing me! (Reproaching)

LADY: Don't be lazy! We just walked to the entrance of the camp. (Pushing her).

CHARLOTTE: Well, they wouldn't be hurting me if we were on the beach. I hate going camping, there are a lot of mosquitoes. (Whining) Oh cramps! I want to go back home.

KATLYN: (Touching Charlotte's shoulder) cheer up, Charlotte! This place is wonderful, I remember very well. We used to come here with my father every Sunday (continuing walking).

LISA: (Approaching Charlotte) With her father? She had never mentioned him after the accident.

CHARLOTTE: (Whispering) What accident? What are you talking about?

LISA: Don't you remember? (biting the spoilt girl's head and whispering right to her ear)

LADY: (interrupting the nerd girl and the spoilt girl) Oh, come on girls! We are already here, we can't go back. As Katlyn said, this place is cool. You know? We gotta go wild, our parents are not here (laughing and sticking out the tongue) Let's freak out, I brought some beers with me hehehe.

LISA: U-uh, I don't think so, young little lady. (Twisting her eyes to Leidy) If I am not wrong, each of us should drink less than 2.5 liters of beer for avoiding a headache tomorrow.

KATLYN: Please, leave mathematics for school, come on! Let's go. Just look! This must be the cottage. (Pointing out the center of the scenario)

CHARLOTTE: Finally! I’m about to faint, I need water. I can’t walk anymore. I’m going to die please, help me!!

(Nobody is paying attention except Lady who brings beer to Charlotte.)

LOLA: What if you get relaxed a bit. Leave your bags on the floor and prepare for the best night of your life, there's a bonfire tonight!

MILE: Mmmm, I'd rather sleep, let’s do something tomorrow. Look at the hour, it’s too late, and it is October, the witches’ month, it scares me.

LADY: What the hell!  We came here to have fun and be cheerful, not to get bitter, okay? Let the party begin, bring some booze, and let's enjoy! (Dancing)

KATLYN: Yes! Yes! Come on, let's go to the bonfire.

(They leave their bags on the floor and  take sticks out of the bags. Then, they sit in a semicircle to burn marshmallows in the bonfire).

SCENE 2

(They are talking to each other while the music plays. There is silence for a few seconds and they look at each other uncomfortably)

LOLA: But this plan is so boring. How about if we make a sacrifice to win the lottery, we only need 4 roosters and a fetus, who is pregnant and we take the baby out of her? Oh well, a rabbit will do. Chill out, I'll get it JIJIJIJI (She makes a mean face and laughs mockingly).

KATLYN: No! What is wrong with you?

GAIA: Are you crazy? For God’s sake! What's going on in your head, are you possessed? (shouting and showing the cross) I REBUKE YOU, evil spirits who take over my friends’ mind!

CHARLOTTE: (Looking weird at Gaia) Stop! I am tired of you and your religious comments (whispering  and seeing Mile) I don't even know why we are friends (Turning the eyes)

LOLA: So? Let’s play “true or dare” . I think it is a funny gam….

KATLYN: AH! (Interrupting the conversation when she "accidentally" trips over a book) But what the hell is this? (She stealthily bends down to pick up the book)

LOLA: (Abruptly taking the book out of Katlyn’s hand) Uhhh! What is this? (Reading the title of the book) The Book of the Dead (surprised) Look! yikes, it's soooo cool! The night is set, choose which one will be our doom?

MILE: Leave it there, the unknown things scare me a lot, we don't know where that stuff comes from.

GAIA: I totally agree. This kind of thing always leads to curses and wicked deals. (She starts to pray)

LISA: No, calm down! This is a text from ancient Egypt, used to revive or communicate with the dead. It's harmless

LADY: And do crazy things haha, we should talk to my grandma, I really want to talk to her.

KATLYN: And for once let's write our letters to our relatives in case everything goes wrong. (Laughing mockingly)

SCENE 3

GAIA: For God's sake this is going to get out of control, (persigning and whines for a while).

CHARLOTTE: Well enough, shut that girl up once and for all (saying it with arrogance).

(Lisa and Lola take Gaia and tie her with a rope to a chair until she is immobile, while Gaia prays to God for the sins her friends are committing).

GAIA: Lord Jesus Christ, put your hand in, they don't know what they are doing, please forgive them (Crying a lot).

(The other girls sit on the floor in a circle and open the book).

LOLA: Well, are you ready?

KATLYN: You just relax your soul, what is going to happen will be the best thing your eyes have ever seen.

MILE: I want to go, Goodbye (Stops quickly) You all are crazy.

LISA: Don't go, we have to share and scientifically, everything has an explanation, nothing bad will happen. (grabs Milexis by the hand and sits her next to her)

LOLA: Too much talk, let's do it now! (Opens the book and starts looking for something that catches her attention) Well I got it, it says... altawasul mae alkharij (reading in Arabic)

LISA: (Interrupting) which means communication with the world beyond.

LOLA: Whatever (reading in Arabic)

kayinat min alkharij , astamie 'iilaa sawti ,

nueti hadha al'arnab kaqurban , 'ajib ealaa mukalamatina

khudh juthat alshakhs aladhi yurid 'iinha' alsafqa

Entities of the beyond, hear my voice,

We give this rabbit as an offering, and respond to our call.

Take the body of the one you wish to close the deal

LADY: Grandma, come to meeeeee (Katlyn faints and gets up quickly).

CHARLOTTE: Something passed behind my back, girls.

LADY: Who 's behind Katlyn?

LISA: (Touching Lady and yells) Ladyyyy are you ok? Girls help!

KATLYN: I am the spirit of Virginia, grateful for your offering. Where is my granddaughter? I heard her sweet voice.

LADY: Grandma, here I am... I've missed you so much, life without you is very difficult (crying inconsolably).

KATLYN: Yes, little granddaughter, come and hold me, I want to feel your essence (Malicious and lascivious look).

LADY: Grandma, is that you? What's my name?

KATLYN: (Hesitating) Louise, Lorena...? I'M GONNA KILL YOU ALL!

(All girls faint on the floor)

MILE: God, what happened? I'm alive, are you guys ok? Gaia WAKE UPPPPPP, Gaiaaaa

GAIA: No! your friend Gaia is no longer here! (evil laugh, faints again)

MILE: Oh no! How about you Lisa?

GAIA, LISA: You are a FOOL, don't you understand? your friends Gaia and Lisa are gone (evil laughter and fainting)

MILE: Oh no! What about you, Lady? Katlyn? Charlotte? Lola?

ALL GIRLS EXCEPT MILE: There is nothing you can do, this is the end of you, join me and your friends, we will reign together (walking all together).

(All of them throw at Mile and kill her)

(Then they turn to the audience, slit their throats and say: YOU' ALL ARE NEXT. Audio of malevolent laughter and the lights go out).

(They all run to the public and scare people)

THE END.

# data[].attributes.body
(The scene begins with Stefany entering the bathroom. She looks upset and somewhat unsettled, with her hair standing on end, nervous -I would think I hadn't seen her like this for a long time, not since her last mistake- but this time not necessarily this it had been a mistake in fact everything went according to plan. Stefany is dressed in a white shirt which is stained with blood, her hair disheveled and her face in ruins. She heads towards the dresser, near the door she has left a black suitcase which he throws carelessly, and begins an internal dialogue about what happened and his feelings)

STEFANNY= (looks at herself in the mirror while breathing heavily) What a shitty day! (Gesture of disgust) I can't believe a day like this turned out like this. What's more, I don't understand how is it possible that this guy is free after all the damage he did? It is unfair to all families. It is unfair even to the poor victims. And it makes my blood boil just thinking that this subject, after having killed and raped so many innocent children, is now free, free without restrictions, without security. Probably stalking his next victim or even imagining the thousand ways to carry out those heinous acts.

(She moves away from the mirror and starts grabbing her hair in an unusual way) (She brings her face closer to the mirror to detail her face) (She runs her fingers over the facial features)

STEFANNY= But look at you girl what a mess you've become. How did you get to this point? For what reason did you let everything happen this way? It's just that you don't learn Stefany.

(She expresses his anger and paces back and forth) (she looks into the mirror and has a glass of wine)

STEFANNY= (Whispers intelligibly while looking for a damp cloth) Antonio said that he was innocent that he hadn't done anything even though there was multiple evidence in his home that certified his guilt. Many important people were behind multiple bribes and deceptions so that Antonio would not be charged. There was a whole mafia between Antonio and the important people. they catered to his every whim. I mean, being the son of a politician, anything can be expected.

(Stefany sees the glass of wine and focuses her gaze on the liquid as she pours it) (He starts to drink the wine)

(After a while Stefany places the cup and pours its contents)

STEFANNY= I only needed this, to water the last of this wine. (Grabs another damp cloth and wipes off the liquid) (sad music starts)

STEFANNY = It frustrates me to know that you won't be with me anymore my little angel (She cries as she sees a picture of his sister) I miss you so much every day and I spend it thinking about the last time I walked you to school. It's been a week since your departure and believe me it's been the hardest thing of my existence. (Starts laughing and cries at the same time)

STEFANNY= just as he didn't have the right to do something so cruel to you, I think neither do I, but I say who's to blame, him or me? No one will know this and the person who finds out won't live long to bear it (Puts the portrait on the table and heads for the door) (drags the black suitcase to the table with his right foot) (The suitcase appears to contain human parts)

(Stefany grabs the suitcase and carries it up to the dresser, unzips it and carefully tries to get the contents out. She goes through its interior and pulls out a head belonging to a man in his 40s, which was covered in blood and disfigured. Then Stefany lifts the lifeless part up to her face with her anuses and anger stares in. She looks out of her mind, wearing a grin from ear to ear)

STEFANNY= I may not be able to see my beloved sister anymore, but he won't see the light of day either. I would say family, but his mafia wasn't big enough to protect you (takes the head and turns it like a basketball) Did they really think that being guilty I would still be alive and even more so when a victim of their heinous acts was my sister? (Touches the forehead of the decapitated head with his index finger).

STEFANNY= (covers her face with both hands and looks at herself in the mirror with a sad expression) It was not your time my sister, nor the way you should die. You had a lot ahead of you and Antonio had already lived a lot.

(Stefany takes from the inside of the black suitcase the weapon with which he murdered Antonio. The subject in question was one of the sons of one of the most important politicians of the right. Since Antonio was a child, his family did the impossible to cover his misdeeds and almost leave with yours this time)

STEFANNY= You know sister? It was not so difficult to locate your killer. (Says while trying to clean the gun) After the trial I decided to avenge your death because now I’m alone in this world. It was easy to follow him and record his routines. It was a normal kind of office hours. But you know something my sister?  He had a blind spot-on Friday night. He usually sat in front of his TV 65 inches to watch documentaries of serial killers.

STEFANNY= (Laughs inconsolably) but what he did not know was that very soon he would be one of the main characters of some of these (She grabs his face). Almost similar to his way of killing I drugged Antonio; I held each one of his limbs to the bed while slowly with a knife was detaching his skin from the muscles. Of course, I covered his mouth in case he tried to call for help.

STEFANNY= I think you would have liked to see how he pleads in pain and how his tears fell down her face. It was almost that ecstasy to enjoy the pain that it caused him.

STEFANNY= He looked bewildered and with a lump in his throat. After ripping off his skin, I grabbed the knife and began to cut it like a professional butcher. The cuts were perfect and his suffering was a longing. Then I grabbed fuel and poured it on his member. a match and burned it Curiously the flames ran through his body and while her body melted Stefany could see his expression of emptiness)

STEFANNY= (Her face lights up and he smiles instantly) It was like watching fireworks it was quite a spectacle.  I hope you could see it. I know I promised not to kill again, but I couldn’t stand by.

STEFANNY= (Grabs the suitcase and puts the decapitated head away) I think I'd do it again. The feeling of power and revenge feels nice (Throws the flipper on the floor) I'll fix this tomorrow. I better relax. (Shakily grabs a cigarette, lights it and leaves the bathroom)

COMMOTION

MAN: (Looking puzzled with eyes wide open) H-how is it possible? A moment ago, you-

WOMAN: (Projecting a pale faded silhouette) That's how it is. This was the place where I was killed by my lover. That is why I have brought you here. I always make sure my next victims see what happened to me.

MAN: (Amazed) I don't understand. Why didn't you just have someone call the police? So, they could have given you a place to rest and maybe they could have done an ascension ceremony for you.

WOMAN: (Turning his eyes a blinding red) What I seek is not eternal rest, I seek revenge! The only thing that can satisfy my soul is the death of all men.

MAN: (Getting ready to run) But your hatred is towards that man, why us?

(The man in the midst of his nerves, turns around and quickly heads towards the front door, leaves the house and disappears into the middle of the bushes.)

(The man runs away pale, looks for a phone, calls the police, the police answer
immediately and an officer arrives)
POLICE: hello sir, what's wrong?
MAN: I... I... have... found...
(The policeman ignores him and goes straight to the room where the woman's
body is)
POLICEMAN: BUT HOW DID YOU GET HERE? (He shouts very angry), I
have been guarding my love for a long time and nobody has seen her (he walks
frantically from side to side and gives a terrifying look to the man).
(Since that day the man and the woman share their days and repeat their
experiences over and over again, but now they are both just spirits wandering
in search of someone to find their bodies and help them to rest in peace).

MAN: (He looks around him, sees how everything becomes dark) Why did you leave me alone, alone, in this noisy silence?

(Suddenly a lamp lights up, the whistling of a bird coming from the kitchen catches his attention. He goes there. The bird is next to one of the dishes the woman used to prepare for him)

MAN: Is it you, Yokiko? Tell me you're back. Your departure has left me with a bad taste. There are many things I must tell you. Yes, I fell in love with you. It was not planned.

(The bird stops whistling and flies into the room where the woman is. The man enters the room. He sees the dead body of the woman still hanging on the roof. In a corner of the room, he sees a twenty-five-year-old girl sitting in a rocking chair)

GIRL: I also fell madly in love with you. In this last life I have left, I only want to spend it with you. To sleep listening to your heartbeat, and you, with the sound of my Sakuhachi.

(The girl gets up from the rocking chair, she walks towards the man. He, surprised and with his eyes watering, embraces her)

(Darkness envelops the man; he doesn’t know where he is, everything is in silence)

MAN: Hello? Anyone there? (He tries some steps forward). Where am I, and where’s the woman?

(The man starts to hear someone approaching, he then sees a very tall form dressed in black with a hood that covers its face)

GRIM REAPER: Hello, old man. (Says with a deep voice). You’re finally here; I’ve been waiting for you.

MAN: Tell me, where is the woman? (The desperation in his voice can be heard). She was there. (Pointing in front of him). Hanging from the roof, I saw her.

GRIM REAPER: She’s no longer here; she’s on the other side in peace.

MAN: The other side? (Says with a frown on his face). What is the other side, and where am I? Please, answer me.

(The grim reaper removes her hood; her face is only a skull with empty eyes)

GRIM REAPER: You’re in limbo; the shock to see the woman hanging from the ceiling was so great that you collapsed with a heart attack.

MAN: No, that can’t be possible (Says surprisedly). I want to find the woman.

GRIM REAPER: You can't; she doesn't want to see you; she has deemed you to the underworld with me.

MAN: But… I loved her (Says ducking his head)

(The man is perplexed to find such a scene of the woman, disconsolate he kneels down and begins to cry incessantly)

Man: Why did you do it? Why did you make me fall in love and break my heart in the blink of an eye? (talking to the woman's hanging body).

(Suddenly some noises start to come from the basement).

Young man: Help, help! I'm stuck down here, I can't see anything

Man: Wait a minute, where are you? I can hear you, what's going on?

(The man slowly approaches the basement with his sword in his hands and decides to follow the voice)

Young man: This way sir, keep listening to my voice, I’m near the cadavers I can feel them around me, I’m blind and I have been here for a long time.

(The man slowly approaches and finds a scene of death and a putrid smell and in the distance, he sees the head of a young man buried among cadavers).

Man: Who are you? (he asks the young man with curiosity)

Young man: I’m Nox and I have been in this basement for years. It’s a profound relief that you have listened to me, my good man.

(The man begins to dig through the cadavers with his sword)

Man: How did you get to this place, my young friend?

Young man: Years ago, I heard that the woman who lived in this house possessed inexplicable magic, so I decided to come here, she tried to make me fall in love with her sounds and her attention but from one day to another she decided to lock me in here because I could not look into her eyes and feel the same.

Man: This surprises me so much but I don't understand why she decided to let you live and not take your soul (with a confused face).

Young man:  She realized that I didn’t belong to this planet, she said that my looks were oriented to other universes, and for that reason, she should leave me here waiting for my equals to come for me.

(The surprised and pale man fainted in the middle of the conversation when he realized that while digging up the body of the young man, it could be seen that he had 7 legs and 5 arms).

UNLEASHED CURSE

(The man discovers the dead body of the woman)

MAN: A ghost, that's all. I can’t believe it. (falls to his knees) I gave my heart to a mournful vision of the past. Now, she is here no more. And now? What should I do? I've fallen in love. Without her, life is not worth living. Besides, I have lost my honor by not having accomplished my mission. I think Harakiri is my only option. (He thrusts his own sword into his belly and faints)

YOUNG WOMAN: Wake up! Wake up!

MAN: What? what's going on? I thought I committed suicide. Did I fail to do that either? (Covering his face with his hands completely ashamed)

YOUNG WOMAN: You're wrong. Now, you are half dead. That is why you can see me now.

MAN: (He squints until he recognizes her) Yokiko? is that you again?

YOUNG WOMAN: No, I'm the soul of the person from whom she took my form. The one you saw hanging was me. I am her daughter. She murdered me to steal my youth.

MAN: Then, her words of love were a lie. The one I fell in love with was you. (taking up the sword) I'm still alive, I must kill the witch.

YOUNG WOMAN: Now, it is too late my love, she is coming for you.

(the woman suddenly appears)

WOMAN: Thank you very much for entertaining the visitor, daughter. It is time for dinner (the woman takes out a knife and stabs the man with it).

* Harakiri: The act of committing suicide by the mythical warriors of Japan to save their honor and give a final show of courage.

(The astonished man is looking at the body of the woman lying on the floor).

MAN: But... but what is this? (He approaches the body of the woman lying on the floor) What happened? Who did this? (He says with desperation).

WOMAN: (The spirit comes out of the body) You have to run away from here, now! (disappears).

MAN: Wait, don't leave me! (In desperation).

FLOWER: (A shadow comes out of the flowers on the floor) Finally we are free!

MAN: Who are you? Show yourself! (With trembling voice).

FLOWER: Don't be afraid, you will finally be freed from the torment of life and join us (in a macabre voice).

MAN: What are you talking about, why did you kill her? (Falls to the floor in fear and begins to crawl until he reaches the wall) Don't hurt me please!

FLOWER: why? (He laughs) She was cursed, she had to die to free us and now you'll be next (he lunges at the man) You'll never ever hear the sound of a voice!

MAN: NOOOOOOO! Giving his last scream, (his body is paralyzed and his sight is blurred forever).

FLOWER: (Disappears, leaving the body of the man and the woman lying on the floor, side by side).

THE DEAL

MAN: No! you can't go like this and leave my heart without your kind words (about to perform the rite of harakiri, suddenly a growing shadow appears from a low corner of the room.).

ACRON: I can't believe it, the human species is so odd. Are you going to waste the years you have left to live? (smiling with sharp teeth).

MAN: A SHINIGAMI! What do you do here?

ACRON: Then you are a samurai who reads about history. So, you should know what that woman was. Infernal dealings in a house allow many entities to enter, like me. (Deafening sound of clawing at a table surface).

MAN: What can you offer me?

ACRON: You know what I do, human. I am not a god of life. I can anchor the spirit of your beloved and yours to this earthly plane in exchange for your remaining years of life. You would just be spirits attached to this house.

MAN: Done! Nevertheless, under what conditions, I know that Shinigami are dirty businessmen.

ACRON: You break my heart! (macabre laughter) the most I can do is to link your spirits to a time loop. That is, from the time you first knew each other until the moment of your beloved's death. So on and so forth, losing track of time and memory at each restart. (suddenly appears at the man's side and whispers in his ear…) Blessing or curse, take it or leave it.

(The man nods his head and performs the harakiri, dying instantly).

WE ARE

(The man discovers the dead body of the woman)

MAN: (Breaths hurriedly, feels that he is running out of air) It can't be, my beloved, what have you done? We would have lived together forever, why have you left me?

WOMAN: Here I am, I will never leave you. Let's not fight again. Let's just live and enjoy the life we have.

MAN: So be it!

(footsteps approaching)

MAN 2: Are you all right man, why do you have a rope around your neck?

MAN: I don't have anything, you can't be here, go away.

MAN 2: You are badly beaten, let me take you to a hospital. Look at yourself (The man takes out a mirror from his pocket and Man sees his reflection and realizes he is wearing Woman's dress).

MAN: Where are you, my love? WHERE? (His eyes darken, and he slits his throat.)

(Man suffers from dissociative identity disorder, so Woman did not exist, he was the same, and he finds out until the end).

THE END.

(The man kneels down and cries inconsolably. At that moment, a demon personify as a child appears)

MAN: Who are you? Where did you come from?

BOY: I am Boy, the inner voice and thoughts of that woman (pointing to the woman's cadaver). She was suffering a lot so I told her how to heal all that pain.

MAN: WHAT? So, it was you who made her end her life? (Taking out his sword and trying to cut off the boy's head, but realizing that he can't kill him).

BOY: (Laughing) You think you are very smart, don't you? I’m a powerful demon, no one can defeat me, your sweetheart tried, but at the end, I convince her to join me.

MAN: (Losing control) What am I going to do now? My life has no sense, the only important thing is gone.

BOY: That's right, the best thing to do is to die with her.

MAN: NO! Shut up, she would have wished me to continue living?

BOY: Living? (Laughing) Is this life for you? To be old, and alone?

MAN: (Crying) You got that right. (Man tries to cut his own throat with the sword).

WOMAN: (Shouting) Leave him alone! Man don't do it, that demon tricked me, don't let him to do the same with you.

MAN: If you are not here with me, I have nothing to do in this world.

(The man cuts his throat with his sword and dies. The boy transforms into his original form of demon and becomes more powerful).

Traveler: Why did you hang that lady?

Man: It wasn't me. She did it by herself.

Traveler: I don't believe you, I'm sure you believed in the lies of the travelers.

Man: I repeat that it wasn't me, I fell in love with her, but I couldn't stay here to live.

Traveler: So you're going to say that she killed herself because you didn’t fall in love to her. What impudence!

Man: I can't say that, that's why, but I only know that now my life has no more meaning. The silence is going to be eternal and it's going to kill me.

Traveler: That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my entire life, and I still don't believe you.

Man: The flowers around you can't deny what I'm saying.

(While the traveler bends down to pick up some petals lying on the ground, the man pierces his throat with his sword)

Traveler: My God! What kind of curse is this?

WITNESS

HOMELESS MAN: (Walking down a street, he comes across a pile of garbage bags) -Oh! let's see what we have here, it looks promising. (He starts rummaging through the bags) -Mm a cat must have died in here, it smells deadly. (The homeless man keeps moving the bags, and suddenly something falls on the ground) -Oh? What was that? (He looks up to see) -Oh my God! (He gets scared) -what... what is that? (With his voice cracking) -It's a girl's head... damn it! they decapitated her (He looks with horror and bends down, he can't stand the smell and the scene, which makes him vomit) -Oh my God! Who was that poor lady, now what am I going to do? (He runs away from the scene screaming about what he saw, people realize what is happening and are shocked to see the rest of the woman's body in the middle of the garbage bags.)

(A traveler passes through the forest and feels a strange energy coming from a lonely house, as he approaches, he can observe a man in a state of shock; an ancient samurai holding the dead body of a woman).

TRAVELER: What's going on here? (Shouts
in surprise while observing the samurai)

MAN: Who are you? (He answers while looking directly into the traveler's eyes).

TRAVELER: Did you murder this poor
woman? (Shouts
angrily)

MAN: I have not murdered anyone, this woman took her own life after offering me asylum for a while; we were in love, or so I thought (a tear falls down his face).

TRAVELER: If she loved you why
did she decide to take
her own life.
Surely you did something very bad to her; you cheated on her or played with her
feelings. In any case, you are a wicked man and I won't let you get away with it
(says the traveler as he backs away from the scene of the crime).

MAN: Not true (he approaches the traveler with his sword in his hand).

Traveler: Get away from me! I will
not be one more of your victims (says the
traveler while running scared).

(A scream of pain is heard and the blood stains fall on the flowers that
the woman cared for so much. The samurai holds his sword full of blood and
finally, the place is completely silent).

(As the man lays the woman's lifeless body on the dirty floor, a black cloud invades the house and bloodcurdling screams echo through the place.)

MAN: This place never ceases to amaze me. (A look of astonishment in search of answers).  What is going on?

(The beautiful flowers of the woman change their physical appearance turning into a horrible monster with fifteen heads that cries and looks for the lifeless body of its mistress)

MONSTER: You killed our lady after falling in love with her. Now, we will avenge her death by pulling your heart and taking out your eyes. WE HATE YOU!

MAN: I never wished for her death, I never wanted this tragedy to happen, and I did nothing, I swear to you (Tears welling up in her eyes and muttering)

MONSTER: We cannot believe the man who killed our mistress (the man is hit and falls to the ground). You took away us the only person who cared for us (Man's heart is removed by the sharp teeth of carnivorous flowers).

MAN: Do not do so…

MONSTER: Your filthy eyes will never again see the light of day (using a stalk with thorns the monster removes the man's eyes)

(Once the monster kills the man, he goes to the village to continue killing the humans "the guilty ones" for the death of his mistress.)

MAN: Nooo! where are you? (He asks her anxiously as he heads to the room where the woman is supposed to have committed suicide) I won't go, but let me see you, let me be with you.

MAN: (With the nerves on edge) I know it was a bad idea my love but I will not go.

(The man reaches the room and sees the rose petals on the floor. The room has a gloomy aspect, it is difficult to see what is inside. The man searches the room and repairs the ceiling to see his beloved, but what he doesn’t know is that all is a plan of her. The man feels a shiver run down his spine and the room grows darker.)

(The woman decides to join him for eternity, she grabs the rope with which she had hung herself and wraps it around the man's neck causing him a slow and painful death).

MAN: Waiiit! pleeeease! stop! there's no need to kill me (little by little the throat closes) Stoooop! (Exclaims sobbing while she hangs him with her strength)

(The man feels how everything vanishes as he manages to see his spirit leaving the body and perching on the lady's side. After a few minutes, it hears a knock on the door, then the door opens. The subject in question is the neighbor who is worried about the man since he offered to transport him. Seeing that he does not appear, he decides to approach the house to realize of a tragedy).

NEIGHBOR: Hellooooo! is anybody here? I'm going in (He grabs the lock to open the door but it was not locked, it was open) Hiiii! I'm here to take you to the transport terminal

NEIGHBOR: Sir, are you alright? (He goes through the whole house in search of the man to find him dead in one of the rooms on the first floor) My God!!!!, but what happens here? who killed you? (At the end of the sentence, next to the door, the couple appears holding hands. The neighbor turns around seeing them and screaming in fright. He runs out of the house and proceeds to call the police)

MAN: But princess... (Breathe deeply) what happened? I wanted to live with you forever and you just let me.

WOMAN: But what do you say dear? I never thought of leaving you, here I am. Come, let us enjoy this great life we have built together. (She approaches her husband) Look how well you look that rope around your neck, you never cease to surprise me.

Look at those blows you have, why have you caused yourself so much damage? Look at you, I don’t know you...

(The man looks at his reflection in a tarnished mirror and realizes he is wearing his wife’s clothing)

MAN: (In an anxious voice), where is my soul? Why can’t I see you? Please tell me this is all a bad dream, a nightmare.

(The man does not know his identity, does not know who he is, that woman who loved so much never existed, only reflected himself)
