I met Emma Rabbit on the outskirts of my universe.

In a neighboring galaxy.

She was an angel. If I close my eyes, I see her before me clad in white. How she floats up the stairway.

Can it have been at Wolle & Wolle? In that case, Emma must have felt as uncomfortable there as I did.

That was why we sought each other out. We were both in the wrong place at the same time. Forced to be in the wrong place, for different reasons.

Deep down, Emma Rabbit didn’t want to work at an advertising agency at all. She despised the advertising industry. It was for art that she lived and about art that she dreamed. It was in her studio apartment in Tourquai that she showed me the minimalist canvases where she, with the finest pony-hair brush and watercolors, created enchanted forests and meadows and fields and mountains.

After that evening my fascination turned to veneration.

In Emma Rabbit’s imagination lived primeval forests and wide-branching, richly fragrant deltas.

No one listened like she did.

With her head to one side and those big eyes that followed every thought. From its source to its outlet. I had never been able to talk with anyone that way.

It made me happy.

It made me unhappy. How many years had passed without my having a friend like her?
