Today Paul went to the MDR-Tower in Leipzig. The weather has been very nice and so you could have a great view over the great city.
Suddenly
Paul discovered a strange figure standing on a telescope.
It waved at
Paul and shouted:
„Hey Buddy
do you have got a little change? I need too look for someone…“
Paul was
short of money, so he only gave him 500 € in 1 € coins and said:
“Look as
long as you like my friend!”
“Boa you
are so kind, thanks a lot! My name is Undin by the way.”
He climbed
down the telescope to talk to Paul.
“Who are
you looking for?” Paul asked.
“Well…”
apparently the answer seemed to be a little distressing… “ well I am looking
for my soul mate… “ Undin answered.
“You know,
once I have been a prince, underwater you know… I have been one of these
Aquariuses. I was swimming happy and carefree, until the day a ship sunk above
our kingdom. There was a girl, and I saved her. I had to leave her at the
beach, she was still unconscious. But I kept her identification card with her
picture as a reminder, which told me she was from Leipzig. I couldn’t think about anything else
anymore, and so I made a fatal pact with an evil witch: She told me I could
walk like humans, and I could talk like humans… and I have got one year time to
find her… but if I don’t, my soul will be hers forever…”
“Well that’s
cheating! She made you think you would become a human, and no piece of soap! The
pact is futile!” Paul said in high dudgeon.
“I signed
with my blood; do you really think it matters if the contract is in form and
content?” Undin answered a little taunting.
“She is out
there anywhere, I know it…”
“What if
she moved away?” Paul asked carefully.
“Let’s look
for her” Undin answered like if he didn’t hear it.
So they took
a look at the new guildhall, but the girl wasn’t there.
So they took a look at the Wilhelm-Leuschner-Square, but the girl wasn’t there.
So they
took a look at the Petri-Church, but the girl wasn’t there.
So they
took a look at the Battle-Of-Nations-Monument, but the girl wasn’t there.
So they
took a look at the Federal
Administrative Court, but the girl wasn’t there.
So they
took a look at the Zoo Leipzig, but the girl wasn’t there.
“Damn”
Undin said.
“Yapp” Paul
answered. “Lets go get some beer.”
They walked
trough the campus, but the girl wasn’t there as well.
To be continued.
