the place right away, OK?

Don't say that, we're not selling!

I don't have a problem with the house!

And I love it very much.

So what's the problem?

Hey why do you glare? Do you

understand what we are talking about?

You small witch.

She is always by mommy's side.

Isn't that true Damla?

Volkan...

Canan...

Canan... What's it?

There's somebody there.

Where?

The attic.

Ooff... Ooff!

Don't ooff Volkan.

I saw somebody here.

And I don't know how Damla

happened to come here.

She was down there while

I was going upstairs.

Honey, there is nobody here.

You see.

Let's say there was somebody,

all the windows are locked inside.

How did he get out?

I said I saw it Volkan!

Now you say he's vaporized!

Look dear, I was in the kitchen.

Then I felt as if I hit something

while I was going to the saloon.

Then I heard a noise and I came here.

It came out of there.

A black long-haired thing.

You wake up in the middle of your sleep.

Maybe the cat moved

or it was her sound...

...and you saw that as something

else in the dark sweetheart.

There's nobody else in the

house. Please don't exaggerate.

Honey I have to go.

Wait a minute I'm coming.

I'm late. You go on with the shower.

I'll call you at the office, all right?

All right dear.

See you later.

See you.

So they don't have nine lives.

Mister Raci I have a request from you.

Can you bury the cat somewhere?

I don't want my wife to

hear about the accident.

And please clean up the blood too.

Canan will be very

upset if she learns this.

Ooff! How couldn't I see the cat?

Don't worry I'll take care of it.

Haluk, check these invoices once!

Volkan. What's up man?

What makes you look like

a villain movie star?

I don't know, I'm not feeling good.

What's it? Is it about the new house?

Well that and...

...I killed our cat by accident today.

Really!

I couldn't say it to Canan.

I'm thinking about that now.

What can I say? It's an

accident, it wasn't on purpose!

She will be upset for a few days

and she will forget. Don't worry.

Damla!

Damla where are you?

What are you doing here?

My cat, I'm looking

for my cat, she's lost...

This is my place.

Maybe she fell into the water...

Nevermind...

Hello, Banu, how are you?

Thanks dear. I'm at work.

How's it going with the new

house? I hope all is fine!

Well fine...

What's it? You sound strange...

Nothing important but I'm a little stressed.

We will go shopping on Saturday right?

Sure, sure we will.

I will call you later.

All right then we'll see on Saturday.

All right. Take care.

You too...

Don't you see what you did to me?

Hello...

How are you Canan? How is

it going? I hope all is fine.

I called to remind about our

plan for Saturday shopping.

Yes, yes, I know.

What happened? You sound strange.

Nothing important but

I'm a little stressed.

We'll talk when we meet.

All right then.

See you later, take care.

You too...

Honey try to be positive.

You know it better than me. Cats also

have some needs just like the human.

Damla has some needs too. And she

followed her instincts and left the house.

Shut up for God's sake! You talk

as if she's never coming back again.

She will come back unless

something happened to her.

I know my Damla.

Canan.

Let's go out for dinner,

what do you say?

I have no appetite.

We can go to that place you love.

And we haven't been out

since we moved. Come on.

Come on. We'll change the mood.

And then...

Get out you jerk!

Come on...

Volkan don't! Volkan...

What? Don't you like the taste?

I can't get Damla out of my head.

Where's she, what's she doing?

Is she hungry, afraid?

Maybe she's trying to

find her way back.

Why did we come here?

Ok, all right. I'm not saying anything.

You eat your meal.

Look I have an idea!

Let's go to a pet shop tomorrow

and get a new cat, all right?

One of those Siamese cats for

example... With big whiskers.

I don't want it...

What do you want from me?

Voice... Did you hear the voice?

What voice Canan?

Said what do you want from me,

didn't you hear?

Water... Have some water!

Are you OK?

Restroom...

I have to go to the restroom.

All right dear.

What? Don't you like the meal?

I can't get Damla out of my head.

Where's she, what's she doing?

Is she hungry, afraid?

Maybe she's trying to

find her way back.

Why did we come here?

Ok, all right. I'm not saying anything.

You eat your meal.

Look I have an idea!

Let's go to a pet shop tomorrow

and get a new cat, all right?

One of those Siamese cats for

example... With big whiskers.

I don't want it...

What do you want from me?

Voice... Did you hear the voice?

What voice Canan?

Said what do you want from me,

didn't you hear?

Water... Have some water!

Are You OK?

Volkan please let's go back home!

Damla, my precious!

Are you back to mommy?

Come here!

Where did you go huh?

Do you know how you made

me upset? You little witch!

Canan!

What happened?

What happened to you?

Volkan! Damla, Damla was here.

Volkan the cat was here.

I swear she was here.

I am not lying. It wasn't a

dream, I swear she was here.

I held her in my hands. Then...

...then I saw she was

dead and covered in blood.

Come here.

All right. It's OK now,

don't cry! All right.

Canan...

Canan...

What happened?

Were you dreaming?

No!

You were laughing. Laughing continuously...

Me?

Is there anyone else in the room Canan?

I don't know... I don't remember.

Really? Come here then...

Volkan...

If you wake me up...

Volkan...

Are you going to meet Banu today?

Yes. She will come and pick me up.

What's Banu doing? Is she dating anyone?

Why do you ask that?

Well, I'm not saying it just because she's

your friend but Banu is a beautiful girl.

Volkaaan!

No I don't mean that, it is hard

to be smart and beautiful like her.

See, she couldn't find

herself a nice guy yet.

Volkan you're still talking.

OK, I shut up.

Banu, let's go have somewhere

for a drink before we go home, all right?

OK, good idea.

I'm sure there's something

strange in the house.

Sometimes I feel something

weird running in my blood.

I suddenly see strange visions.

As if someone is trying to get me.

Did this all start after you lost your cat?

No! It's there since the

first day we moved in.

I don't want to tell Volkan

not to make him upset but...

...I want to go away

from that house soon.

I think you should forget about

moving out. No need to exaggerate it.

I mean, this can happen to

everyone. It happens to me too.

Hearing about the missing

wife of the neighbour...

...the smell thing, the

cat going away and all...

Whoever goes through such things

will be affected psychologically.

Banu, if only you could hear

the sounds in my head...

Canan... Canan are you OK?

It happened again.

Why are you so angry now?

Honey, it's not that I'm angry!

You say something touched

you in the bath tub.

Don't expect me to take it natural!

I am trying to be cool about all

these but you are making a big deal.
