All Chapters of A Little Empathy Is All We Need: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Ever since I was a little kid I dreamed of being able to do magic. I longed to be able to conjure up certain things or to be able to change somewhat tricky situations in an instant. And the older I got, the more this desire grew in me. When I was a little girl, envious and admiring, I listened to the fairy tales that my favorite grandmother from Munich always read to me in the evenings. In these stories, witches and wizards performed real exploits and turned everything for good, although these creatures were constantly portrayed only as evil by humans. For as long as I could think clearly, I wondered why people thought witches and wizards were bad. I was also amazed that, despite everything, so many people dreamed of being able to do magic or be a witch. Because supposedly it was "devilish". When, as a little girl, I couldn't fall asleep in the evening, I imagined everything I would change if I had magical powers. The first thing I made up my mind was to free my mother from her ment

Yes, and your friend also comes from the planet of witches and wizards, just like you. He will always be by your side and get through everything with you.", My father explained to me. Carefully covered me a little higher. “Besides, he loves you as soon as you love him, Zerlina, and will carry you through life on hands. But before this can happen, you have to complete the task assigned to you and solve a corresponding puzzle. And when your parents on the planet of witches and wizards see that you serve the people here on this planet with a lot of zeal and determination, your wedding and Finn's wedding will be held as a reward. And maybe Finn and you later even have the opportunity to travel to your birth families. But I don't know. Because nobody told me anything about this matter. However, I can well imagine that your families will bring you to their home when they see that you take your life's tasks seriously and do it conscientiously. Because Finn has also been assigned a ce

I didn't even know that you were a witch who could do magic,‹ I replied timidly after my grandmother had finished with her “lecture”. ›Very funny, Zerlina! I must have heard the irony in your voice. You must have learned that from Wolfram. Because he too could or can be so sarcastic. But who, my friends, do you think gave your birth parents the idea of sending you to this earth, huh? I! Because you just seemed like you were cut out for this task. I thought you could and should stand up for the disabled, sick and old people. Because you were born as a severely disabled witch and you can put yourself in the shoes of these people.This is the only reason you came to this earth. And I hope you will submit to your fate this time and do the job you have been asked to do perfectly! 'Said Emma in a serious tone and skilfully threw her scarf over her shoulder. ›Grandmother, why do creatures that have nothing to

 "Yes, and you can nibble on these rustic pieces of furniture sooooooo nicely!" Replied my mouse man dryly and snuggled into my lap. At first I missed all my friends from Frankfurt a lot. And so was one of the most beautiful Momo, my very sweet kitten. Momo was given to me by one of my assistants ”, I continued after a while and hugged my little cat lady to me, overjoyed.Suddenly one morning the young woman was standing in the middle of my living room with a basket. She gave me Momo so that I wouldn't feel so lonely. Sweet is not it?! When she opened the basket, a tiny white-gray snub nose greeted me timidly. It was a bit daring from a personal assistant to give me a cat. But if my little cat grew up with a mouse, maybe they could stop her from hunting mice, I thought. With cheeks flushed with joy, I then declared out loud that I wanted to try this at least once. Even if it sounds improbable, giving a cat, and a very young one at that,

When I was living in Munich for almost two months, Emma, Wolfram's mother, woke me up quite roughly one night, I reported after a short break. This time my grandmother was sitting on my television. Because there was no other seat in my bedroom. Except for my bed, of course; my television was very close to the window. Only in winter did I sleep with the window closed. During this time Emma came floating through the walls. " ›You have to get yourself a sensible and comfortable armchair!‹ Emma growled at me unfriendly and examined my numerous photos of my friends on the walls with interest. Enough light shone into my room from the skyscrapers opposite that my grandmother could see everything pretty clearly. I looked at her with small, sleepy eyes and whispered: 'Oh, Grandma, let me sleep. I'm so tired. ›No, no, Zerlina, now you will have your very first magic lesson,‹ came the harsh voice of my t
