  one day my wife and I need to get something from the cellar underneath the house. The cat followed us down the steps and threw itself in front of me. I almost fell on my face and, mad with anger, I took hold of an axe and tried to kill the animal. But my wife caught my arm to stop me, and then anger exploded in my mind. I turned and drove the axe deep into her head. She fell dead on the floor, without a sound.

  After this horrible murder, I calmly made plans to hide the body. K knew I couldn't take it out of the house, either by day or night, because the neighbours would see me. So I had to think of other ways ... I could cut the body up into very small pieces and then burn them in a fire. I could hide the body under the floor. Or I could put the body in a box and then ask someone to carry the box away ... Finally, I thought of a better idea. I decieded to hide the body behind the walls of the cellar.
