Y8 - CLASS D - GROUP I - STORY 3
A NUN IN THE FAMILY! At the night of day 13th, a man called Hermann read the following piece of news in the paper: “A girl, called Geppa, killed herself in a cloister! She was a nun! It all happened on a Friday 13th, at 3 AM.” Hermann was a lonely engineer. He had blond hair and green eyes.He was tall and thin. He was just 28 years old, but still single. He lived with his grandmother in a small house on 45th street in Manhattan. When he read that piece of news in the newspaper, he was very thoughtful. He knew about a story of a nun in his own family. Actually, what he would find out later was that his father had been killed by a nun, because he had also killed one of them. After reading about that horrible event in the paper, Hermann searched for more information. He discovered that his own mother was a nun and his father had killed her. He thought a lot about that terrible event in his own family. He concluded that he needed to become a religious guy just like his mother before she died. He started attending the church.
One day, he went to a mass and when it was over, he realized it was 3:00 in the morning and that he was not in the mass of the living, but in the mass of the dead ones. He was scared about the situation. He could never imagine that he could be killed by a nun. It was a kind of humiliation. At that moment, when he turned back, there was a nun behind him. She was looking deeply in his eyes. The darkness of that place got on his body. He had never been scared that way. The nun didn’t say a word! She was scary enough and Hermann understood what she wanted. Actually, that nun was the spirit of his mother! His dad himself had killed her! Hermann had never met his mother before and that wasn’t definitely the best way and time! Hermann felt like he had a mission to give peace to his mother’s spirit. So, he decided to find a way to heaven for his mother. He tried for a long time but he never found an answer to that mystery. Although he felt frightened to death, Hermann kept on going to the church late at night so that he could try to convince his mother to go into the light.
