furniture (Part II) He had not yet arrived at the ground floor, with agree that there are more than wasted time was. A piece of furniture was likely to scrap a valuable experience in the life of -
It depends on what you consider valuable and when you do you will own that it is all quite an experience.
"Oh." Soren looked around, then down, eyeing the lady who was on the last step of the stairs to the basement. "Know we? I'm Søren Crate, the new roommate of Mrs. Winters. Since - »
" One moment, but apparently not in your head, because the new is still screened out "
He was sure that his lady was sympathetic, because he did not like and. built a more sophisticated grin. The attempt to capture more detail in age and properties left behind in an endless loop the lady in his mind's eye.
'Strive' is not you. I'll be gone. Was only just get the mail. "
" Anyway, nice "You know, Søren murmured as a speaker, which you can turn off the sound slowly. The knotted at the neck level of hair lady vanished as she descended the steps. Strange house.
"Oh, and give it not away," he heard a voice among them, struck shortly before the cellar door. Really strange house.
It was windy on the road and his first thought was that of a sweater. Then he remembered the few moves, after which he was allowed to sit back in the warmth on the couch. He pushed an old newspaper committed to the open door and managed to even the sight of the battered sofas not the intellectual cross-connection.
The sofa was really the title of a usrangiert in fracture impressed . The left front foot was broken away and somehow it sagged. Probably a break in the backbone. The city pigeons had been reliable in the last five minutes, where it had not been torn down, there it was filthy. Furniture to waste, really.
"May I take this, my good man?" Søren, just bent over the back to his splinter-free fingers to find support, turned his head towards the voice. The man with a thin face, wearing his jacket too short and unrecognizable battered hat with a touch of duty. He had a dusty, even if nothing untidy about his person appeared.
"But of course. But first it must be to the edge, where it will not get in the way "What the man later was up with the erstwhile bed, little interested Søren;. But in that moment he was a free pair of helping hands.
Wordless walked - yes, he definitely crossed - the man to the other side of the unit and together they hoisted it half crouch against the wall. He tapped his hands against each other like old school pads, Søren noticed that the man was wearing gloves of something that might once have been leather. He mumbled his thanks towards the stranger, trying to gloss over that he himself had brought this little thing a bit out of breath.
"You're welcome. Allow that we sit down briefly, why not "
." Soren is the name. "
" Scandinavians? "
" Neunfemünde. "
The other turned up his nose. "Well, well, more or less at the end of the world. I am furniture. "
Søren looked at him wrong and gave themselves the opportunity to scrutinize the man closer. Although his face was gaunt, the man looked ponderous, but not fat. His coat was black indefinable, perhaps even anthracite, but could have been just as frog green without making a difference. The dress underneath was not visible, but probably saw from crumpled and brought up to proper creases. The eyebrows were thick, but fine-drawn, and in a manner so striking that they distract from the eyes and nose completely. When he took off his hat and took off on the back, short dark hair came into view - Søren's very similar.
"furniture? Something of a furniture dealer? A - "Soren looked for the correct job title for people who work in furniture stores and have appropriate expertise; occurred to him that he knew no such names.
"Rather collectors as a dealer. Specializing in books. Furniture facilitate Rather, my everyday life. "One hand disappeared into the jacket collar and rummaged around in his inner life, as in a shopping bag.
"So antiquarian? ? Librarian "He was not sure whether he is just the man - he said was furniture - or anyone else helped with the search term.
"librarian certainly, but it is not so one-dimensional, I fear. Would you wanted to smoke one with me? "
" Hey wish I could say about my job well. "He's the man again just ask him to Siezen. Then he noticed that while the words changed, but the tone had shifted no piece. He eyed the metal box held against him. "Sure, why not. Cigarillos? "
" miniature cigars, to be exact. I would not call it my job. Furniture is more my calling. Similarly, the name. "Furniture was open his storm lighter and lit the cigar itself and Søren. And the term. "
" Like knights? Or a philosopher? "Inquired the Søren carefully and moved well on the object between the thumb and index finger. It was a soft, brown cylinder, which left the fear of falling apart at any moment. About the taste, it was divided. He blew out the smoke and watched the passing trotting human herds, which seemed to take care of the two men on the broken sofa bit.
"A portable comparison, but -" He made a contemptuous sound that was somewhere between strumming of the teeth and snap of the tongue. "This shit humanists with their so-called science and education go past me updated on the backside. I am a man of action. Whereas I am the less inclined toward violence. Except they can not be avoided. Of course. "
course," murmured Søren he would agree to a chess boxer who spells the word fracture wrong. He observed furniture facial expressions. But the sound as if you were a spice rack or a board is already clear to you, right? "
" Does even. The shelf is a lovely comparison. Would you - "He sucked on his cigar langam than any movement would say 'Verily. Tobacco products. "
" ahead, there are already too few good stories in this area."
'discretion to disagree. The stories are simply hidden and not simply want to be found. What I wanted? Exactly. Have you ever noticed how her man "- Søren's eyebrow twitched upward in a skilled manner and remained there - you" with uncommon zeal to crash something special or looking for something special to not-
"? directly, " he admitted. "But now that you say it."
"It completely ignores how difficult it is to be especially in a world running for patterns and trains. In general, as in any individual. "
Søren got the desire to remember something intelligent, but he wanted to come up with the best will not do anything until furniture continued in his statement.
"A shelf - sometimes a couch - is so perfect in its meaning and thus simultaneously a matter of course that there is little Attention is "
" This is all well and good, but -. "He wanted to take a break, the other was to draw on his cigar. "Why would anyone be a shelf, do if he is respected for it and it never has a meaning for anyone?"
"That's a good question while the answer."
Sø Ren sighed. A small mongrel stromerte past them and looked at him for a moment with button eyes, as the sun slowly behind the row of houses opposite sank. It smelled like dinner. Furniture reached out a hand to the dog and fumbled a biscuit for him out of his jacket, which was shaped like a stylized bone.
"What is, of course, could be almost anywhere without it bothers someone, right?" The smile of the man seemed very thoughtful, as if bring him nothing in the world from the rest when it was not necessary. Then he remembered.
"Wait a minute, I have heard something of schonmal -»
"Patrick Salinger. As they were talking earlier in the flight of stairs. The man has a good head "
" How -.? "
" I got this couch for a while in the eye. It is long-established and there are so many memories with her that she is quite naturally become part of life. "
" What she is now in the trash. "
" Oh I assure you, this piece is still far from being exhausted. "He patted the arm as the edge of an ancient Gauls.
Then I wish you - you -. have fun with Cervantes, as this should always be a nature "Soren took a train and pushed his last cigar in demonstraktiver slowness on the cushions, before he rose. The man next to him did not seem to care, as he puffed calmly on and threw the butts on the sidewalk. "In any case, my capacity for eccentric everyday encounters now passed and I intend to go through that door."
'Tu' this I'm really only because of the nice chat in transit remained short. In addition, hurt a little training is not your capacity. For the things to come yet. "
" Yes, whatever, strange man furniture, I mean. "
Two steps from the door, he turned once around.
With that I also really tell the story, when my friends will think me crazy: I call up the furniture, the furniture or just furniture "
The surfaces ; surface, where the sofa had been - including the furnishings, The same had been sitting on the - was empty. It was not that important.
