"Hi lambda, are your @home? I'm near your station, do you
wanna meet?" Last time Amir called has been almost 2 months
ago.
I met him 2 years ago. He arrived in germany as a war
refugee from syria. He had luck on his journey. He arrived
germany almost within 20 weeks and with no physical
injuries. He turned out to be insanely intelligent - he
mastered the german language within 18months and finished
his german approbation within another 6 months... He started
to learn the language using his smartphone while he was on
the run.
"I 'm looking forward to meet you", I answered. "Long time
no see. Are you allright?"
"Yes" he said. "And I've got a job as a physician. Only 50%,
but it is a start. Listen - are you free for this evening,
so we can meet and talk."
"No problem", i said. "Just ring and I'll open."
20mins. later I received the following SMS:
> "Hi lambda. I just received the note that the father
> of a friend just died. Now we'll visit him to comfort
> him. I'm very sorry, but we have to meet another time."
I called him to express my condolences. It is always
terrible, when a family member dies. I lost my mother to
cancer when I was 20. Now someone just lost his father.
Amir took the call... and with a very sad voice he said that
the father just got shot in syria. He was 55. He just
managed to get his wife and his smallest children out of the
country but he couldn't leave himself. And to crown this, he
added that the previous week this friend lost his brother in
syria as well.
For Fucks sake! It hasn't been an accident. It hasn't been a
sickness. It hasn't been of old age. It was bloody murder.
And his relatives cannot even give him a decent farewell.
Neither his son, nor wife is able to attend because
somegoddamn sick fucks fight.
