voice spoke to her. At first Sidney ignored this voice, but the longer she listened to the music, the more she heard this voice. That voice said: 'Where are you? You who stole my heart a long time ago I've been looking for you for so long. I need you. I sing my songs only for you, so that you can finally hear me. No one can take your pride from you, because you embody pride. Where are you? You who have everyone's pride in your eyes.You who stole my heart You who are the proudest of us and yet very weak inside. Where are you? You who I love more than anything in the world. You are my hope and my pride. Please tell me where I can find you, because without you life is torture. I sing these songs only for you. Where are you? You proud hawk in the sky that stole my heart. I need you so much. After five hours the concert was over. Fantics gave some autographs and the last bus from Dortmund left well after midnight. But in the scramble, Sidney, May and Jack lost sight of each other and so neither knew about the other. May and Jack met at the bus, but Sid stayed away. The bus drove off and Sidney ran after him as fast as she could. But the bus was too fast.Only out of the corner of her eye May could see her friend running desperately after the bus.
The last bus that went home had left. Now Sidney was sitting alone at the bus stop and thinking. She had no money for a taxi and she left her cell phone at home so that no one would steal it from her. Now she sat on the floor and looked at him. Her legs were drawn to her body as it was getting very fresh. She felt the fall rapidly cooling the nights.
While she was sitting there, she suddenly heard a voice from behind: "If that's not the little one who almost knocked us over earlier."
Sidney turned around and was shocked at the same time. There were three muscular guys standing behind her. She immediately remembered these guys. She had accidentally bumped into her beforehand when she ran to the bus. But she had apologized to them. She got up and took a few steps back. But she clinked to something big. She looked up and saw one of the three guys behind her.One had come up behind her and was blocking her way. He grabbed her shoulders and held her tight while the other two slowly went to her laundry.
Sidney yelled for help, but no one came to her. She struggled, but through the fidgeting one held her tighter and tighter. Then one of the other two said: "Well, how do you like that?" He was about to grab her crotch when the guy behind her said: "Let's get out of here. ... There's the bastard again." He looked at one of them Lantern. The other two also looked there and understood immediately. They left Sidney and disappeared into the darkness.
Sid couldn't believe the guys were finally gone. Tears rolled down her face here and there. But she couldn't quite understand it. She sat down on the floor again and pulled her legs up against her. First she had to cope with what was going on. And the longer she sat there, the more she felt the cold of the night. She rubbed her arms, but she still felt the cold.Suddenly she felt someone put something over her shoulder. A calm male voice said to her: "It will be very cold tonight. ... Why don't you go home?"
Sidney looked at the person who had just sat down next to her. She had to look twice before she realized who was sitting next to her. She couldn't believe that the lead singer Felix from Fantics was sitting next to her. She immediately looked away again and was still silent for a while. But Felix said: "You are probably very shy. ... You were just very lucky that I was around, otherwise the guys would have done something to you."
Sidney looked at him and said puzzled: "You weren't around. So why are you saying that?" She looked away again. She was pretty upset with Felix. She said: "You can take your jacket with you again. And besides: I can manage quite well on my own. You can go."
Felix looked at her a little puzzled and finally looked up at the sky at the twinkling stars.A small smile escaped his lips and he said: "I don't like it when people see me. Why don't you just say 'you' to me. It's much more pleasant for me and for you. Believe me. I can Just don't have it if someone keeps killing me. ”He glanced back at Sidney, but she didn't return his glances. He saw how very cold she was still. He got up and held out his hand to her with the words: "Come on. I'll take you home. It is pointless to wait for the bus, since now nobody ever comes."
Sidney looked up at him and then at his hand. She hesitated. She wanted to go home, but with him? But finally she took her hand and got up. Felix led them to his silver Porsche and they both got in. Felix took off the cap he had been wearing and started the car. Sidney could see his hair now. They were dark brown and short and shaggy. There were so many colors on stage that you couldn't tell which hair color was right for you.At first they were both silent, but then both talked as if they had known each other for a long time. Sidney slowly realized that she could trust him and told him her address. It was a long way from Dortmund to Sydney home. And as they drove on the freeway, the traffic got thicker and thicker. And finally they stood in a traffic jam. They hadn't heard the traffic on the radio. Now they were stuck.
After half an hour of standing, Sidney asked him: "Tell me. Why did you say that you were around when the three guys let me go. They could actually have beaten you too."
Felix looked at her and grinned in her face. With a grin he said: "The three guys and I are old friends. When we last met I had a black eye, a bloody lip and almost a broken nose. I was in the hospital one night. ... Don't say, You didn't get it on TV two months ago? It was broadcast all over the place."Sid looked at Felix in shock and wanted to say something about it, but already he said:" But these three five days were in the hospital and still can't understand how I managed to finish the three. "Sidney made bigger and bigger eyes and was just speechless. Felix continued:" I just dodged and they hit each other. I can't help it if they're stupid enough to beat up their own buddies. "
Felix looked out the window. Next to him on the left was a bus. He looked closely at the bus and finally said: "Tell me, Sidney. You came here on a bus, didn't you? You could theoretically change now and get on the almost full bus. ... There is someone standing next to us your hometown. ”He jerked his left thumb outside.
But Sidney looked past him briefly and said stubbornly: "To give up a seat in a nice, warm, fast, comfortable Porsche? ... Never!... You offered to take me home, as if holding your offer. "
Felix nodded briefly. It finally went on. But they didn't get very far. Again they stood for a while. After the third stop, Felix saw an exit to a rest stop. He drove on the track and Sidney asked him confused: "Where are you going? I'll never get home like that."
Felix glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and smiled briefly. Then he replied: "I haven't had anything proper in my stomach for a few hours. After the concert I ate two slices of bread and nothing else. And now I'm starving." He stopped in a parking lot and got out. He looked at her again and said: "Do you want to stay in the car or would you rather go with us?"
Sidney thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, because she didn't know what would happen at this rest stop when she was alone in the car. She got out and closed the door behind her. Felix quickly grabbed his cap and put it on his head.Then both went to the fast food stall and ordered something to eat. During dinner, Sidney asked him: "Why are you wearing this cap?"
Felix looked out from under his cap and replied: "Should everyone be made aware of me? If the people here recognize me, then everyone wants to have an autograph and then it comes in the newspaper: 'Superstar eats in a snack bar!" Great headline or, Sid? "
But suddenly he only felt a sharp pain in his left foot. He grimaced in pain and looked at Sidney questioningly. But she only said: "Remember one thing: no one except my friends are allowed to say 'Sid' to me. Got it?" Felix nodded with rolled eyes, but in his mind he thought to himself:> Women, I will never understand you. Felix didn't look at her. He just said: "We're going around the traffic jam. I don't feel like being stuck in a traffic jam for so long. You?" Sidney shook her head and was silent for a while. It took another two hours until the two finally stood in front of Sidney's house. Sidney had fallen asleep in the meantime. Felix woke her gently and said to her: "We're here. You can get out of the car."
She looked at him sleepily and nodded briefly. But before she got out of the car, she said to him: “Do you want to go back now?” Felix didn't say a word. He just smiled at her. Then she said: "Will you come upstairs to have a coffee?"
Felix looked briefly into her green eyes and nodded. They got out of the car and entered the building. After a few flights of stairs they reached Sidney's apartment and went inside.Sidney showed him the living room and asked him to take a seat. Then she went into the kitchen to get the coffee ready. As she stood in the kitchen making the coffee, she thought: 'What got into me? I invite a strange man into my apartment and even offer him coffee. I must be nuts. ... But somehow he's different. I don't know why, but I think we've met before. But only where? ... <
