the abitur was closing in. and that was about just the time he began to turn green. i was the last one to undergo the final exam, religion. i dont know why i chose it, anyway. it has probably something to do with faith. the outcome was devastating. they just didn't get the point. the halls were empty except for some corks and piles of confetti. just leftovers from their party. i made my way outside. it had to start raining. stopping my bike at a gas station, i pulled out a bottle of tequila. i drank it with ray cokes, since my brother was... god knows where - i would have picked a severe fight if he would have been around - and mum was in the hospital. freiburg. ha. suited me. i never ever mastered my lonesome cowboy role as intense and taking as on this particular day. you should have seen me.
