Knock-Knock Mission Jokes

So I put stars in my journal next to things I want to share, and there was a really funny day last week (Sunday) so I put a lot of stars next to it.
I SHARED EVERYTHING WITH YOU GUYS EXCEPT FOR THAT DAY! :S
Bueno, here´s that Sunday:
We knocked on a door (old investigators from the area book) and someone inside asked their friend ¨Who is it?¨ ¨It´s the missionaries¨ ¨Oh¨ ¨Do you want me to get rid of them for you?¨ :(. Apparently they didn´t know we could hear them. Hopefully they didn´t hear Hma. Walters and me laughing. 
We couldn´t find a contact, so were knocking on a door (inside it was dead quiet) to ask if they knew where our person was, but when we knocked someone yelled ¨Quien sos?!¨ Followed by a lot of people bursting into laughter. But when they opened the door, they were surprised to see us. Apparently they were expecting friends... and found us! :D
(stories that happen while knocking on doors are now known as ¨knock-knock¨ stories ;D)

Dad had his own reply:
"These are funny stories. I have a knock knock story. We were tracting in a lakotelep, those large russian-made apartment buildings. We knocked on one door and heard:
-Who is it?
-Elder and Biesinger and Elder Vail
-Who?
-Elder Biesinger and Elder Vail
-WHO?
-Elder Biesinger and Elder Vail. We are missionaries from the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
-WHO?!
-I don't think you know us.
-And I never will.

And they never did. Because they didn't answer the door. And it was a good thing because we thought it was pretty funny and were laughing. "
