Hey! This is me. I hope you recognise me.


        MR. VAKEN: Am I dreaming? How it can be possible?

        Mr. Vaken was dumbfounded at the sight that met his eyes. A

        cold sweat broke out on his forehead and he mopped it away
        with his forearm. The same ghost who was teasing the Vaken

        family by his tricks from the starting days was none other than
        Mr.  Vaken’s  close-friend,  Mr.  HOVER  SHEMP,  a  business

        tycoon,  who  was  murdered  last  year.  Then,  at  once  Shemp

        combined perfectly with the spicy peanut-chilli dipping sauce.

        Mr. Vaken said to his wife-


        “I am really exhausted, I want to take some rest, talk to you

        later, leave me alone”.

        Sezia  switched  off  the  light  and  began  to  make  notes  for

        grooming  classes.  Renzia  was  also  busy  in  completing  her
