Die Nachricht von morgen
Tomorrow’s Message

„Bitte hilf mir. Morgen, am sechsundzwanzigsten September, um sechs Uhr abends, an der Eisenbrücke. Wenn niemand kommt, gehe ich. Und dann komme ich nie wieder zurück.“
"Please help me. Tomorrow, on the twenty-sixth of September, at six in the evening, at the iron bridge. If nobody comes, I'm leaving. And then I'm never coming back."
Das war die erste Nachricht, die ich auf meinem neuen alten Handy gehört habe. Und heute ist der fünfundzwanzigste September.
That was the first message I heard on my new old phone. And today is the twenty-fifth of September.
