After Karl had got up, washed and brushed his teeth, was on a stroll with the dog, he sat down to the kitchen table like every morning, slurped the hot tea and the morning newspaper read catastrophes in this one like always atrocities and politicians treating with hostility went in and out without interruption like always. It got dressed and went for work the newspaper read ready, leaving lying on the table. Which prepares dinner, it ended this day down, wrapped, made to itself in front of the television set comfortably, then again at home with the dog out, by creeping into bed tiredly and wearily. These days recurred and nothing happened what cheerfulness took to its sad life, except for the dog. Since its childhood it had never experienced really happy days. It was shaken by a stroke of fate again and again, on the other hand. If it thought a silver cloud on the horizon would appear, a big mallet came and knocked it down down to earth. He was not to be envied, what he also turned on, it went wrong. He pulled himself up again and again, calms hope in which, it finally would get better one day. But nothing happened.
More than forty years he fought so quietly in front
of himself to, he was his marriage himself he never had really which ones failed now well, his friends, but the friends whom he described so were acquaintances and had him hung to conclude again and again, lasting, for other the arse tore up, kicked for him there in they. He had to learn, if one could describe them so, from these faults. But he did not learn from it.
He understood not why, again and again, he was shaken so by destiny. Therefore he decided on another attempt to do, his destiny to take into the own hand and himself among astrologers, to fetch replaced knowledge one day. He thought that the stars steer the ways of the people, that everything is dependent on them in the reason. And he wanted to dare the test to inform himself about his stars to either then make end with his sad fate, or still hoping for the longed-for happiness anyway.
Astrologer got an appointment at a renowned one, he an hour before a said appointment was already present there and had a temperature because of excitement contrary to the conversation. So its destiny should make up its mind here.
When its name was called, it winced inevitably. This was not certainly that way, however yes but the uncertainty did not let it tremble anyway, that it would be afraid.
The astrologer sat opposite and Karl answered its questions willingly.
„The name here is not particularly important for me but so that I can design the documents more personal, they give me the name, please.“
„Gymnast, Karl Turner.“ His voice sounded soft and hoarse because of excitement.
„Date of birth?“ Her voice sounded clear and precise.
its voice still did not want „31.05.1958“ really to obey it.
„Where?“
It had „Pensyl ...“ to clear its throat to scare the frog which spread out in its neck away. It repeated „Pennsylvania“.
„Time?“ The woman saw from below and looked at its face more exactly. She noticed strain and nervousness at it.
This time, he cleared one's throat before he answered.
„Three p.m.“ Was his voice steadier this time? He had doubts about it.
„We so then want to see.“ She worked with a stencil on a paper on which several symbols were shown, drew different lines of the most different colour, then rubbed her chin with the fingers and then said with a happy and enthusiastic voice: „You have never had problems in her previous life and will never either get which ones. You are born, one could say her under a tremendously convenient moment you born under the best lucky star. For her has moved the bad luck in such a wide distance, this can not reach her.“
Karl laughed loudly in bulk. He felt deceived and this for a good reason. „I think they want to take the piss out of me. My life is a complete disaster. Bad luck at the regular metre. You probably really
cannot interpret the stars.“
He wanted to get up this one to leave an alleged astrologer around the office. She jumped from the chair and mentioned it with a calming voice: „Please, they stay. What they said to me just have there, I am burningly interested in it. The stars because I master and I cannot be mistaken indicate. Please, they take a seat again and they tell.“ She pointed the left arm at the chair Karl had sat on just before.
Karl who, in the meantime, had turned round again, the eyes slowly filled with water not knew as he should react.
He turned to the door once more when the woman spoke to him again.
„Please.“ She closed a couple of steps on him. „Please, they stay.“
Karl turned round around, tried to suppress the arising tears, went to the chair again and sat down with head hanging down on this.
„Request ask” the voice of the woman murmured it carefully at, „tell it.“
Karl slowly hesitantly started to talk about how his childhood one single disaster was. He was not loved but violated by the parents. His sister, everything got, was loved and praised while one was showing only clubs and humiliations for him, raised to the sky. She was allowed to choose her school education, she was allowed to choose even her wish profession while he was allowed to have only the school education and also the profession which his parents allowed to him. He was the unwanted one, yes hated child children. Expelled by everyone and unloved.
His further life than he left the parental home also ended in the disaster. He only worked for other, could never afford something, holiday still improves furniture for the flat. He what tackled and would have been good for it, everything went wrong. If he took care of something for other, though, then these profited from it and achieved the success which he had always wanted. But he was never so much lucky.
„Turn out well...“, Karl preserved a longer break, „ luck is a foreign word for me.“ He strongly shook the head as if he wanted to show with that he did not understand it. It could not be understood either. Neither the astrologer nor other people which knew it understood it. How should they also if it did not understand itself and its life?
It further said it was left by all acquaintances as the marriage went wrong therefore stood there despairing left and slowly at the moment alone.
After he had ended he looked the astrologer into the face. This had lost the physical strength for the lower jaw in the meantime because this only hung lifelessly on the face down.
She noticed it, gave the order to the muscles to work and drew the lower jaw up again.
„I can say the only following to it according to the her stars and the necessary horoscope they are a child of Fortune, this umpteenly there is everyone only years. You should be followed in the smallest way of the bad luck. This contradicts the natural laws of astrology. There for certain are and there interpretation faults. But one cannot be mistaken
about their case. I cannot imagine any logical explanation which should influence this luck. It is, then ..“
She broke off.
„What they mean Karl got poorly soundproofed?“.
It sounded just so as if she really still wanted to inform it about a bad news „now yes“.
„They already talk now. Worse than it now it already is, really can not become.“ Its eyes had opened far.
However, did not answer him she looked up of the desk but twitched only with the shoulders.
„Does it become soon?“ Karl raised a little his voice.
„Now yes.“ It began. „There already is a possibility, such a lucky streak, once, I would like to describe this so to interrupt. In the past once, I have heard of it although I cannot believe directly in it. Oh, this is rubbish. They forget it.“ She put
off.
She put off. It then is up to me whether I would like to believe this or not.“
„Therefore good. I have learned once that powers we do not have any exact name for which, for which there is no natural explanation either are responsible for it, if all luck is withdrawn from a child of Fortune.“
You mean such a dark power „, how they happen? in films „ Karl did not think what he heard and gave there.
„Well. One can describe it wants like one. I cannot say whether dark powers or the devil, or similar. But it already comes to something like that in the way.“
It sufficed Karl now. „Do they want to say with that I would have got mixed up with dark powers?“
„I do not want to say with that they would have let themselves in with that but somebody who is close to them or stood could have done something
like that. Something like that is never excluded. As said I do not think but something like that shall already have given it. According to the statement of others.“
„I think we can the conversation regard as ended! What they tell me, this contradicts any nature. I can and I will not accept let alone believe something like that. Who should lay himself out with the devil, only to harm me, then? No, you are incumbent a mistake here.“
