It was a very busy week for me. Therefore, there will be two <em>Kapitel <\/em>this week! One today, and one in the weekend. Happy reading!<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks ago, Max was on the bus and spoke to the mysterious man with the pink umbrella and the Dalmatian. As it turns out, he was on his way to a breast cancer event. The bus ride went faster than Max thought, and he arrives at his stop for the eye doctor&#8217;s, and jumps off the bus. What happens next?<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Kapitel 6<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Die Bushaltestelle ist mit jedem Schritt weiter entfernt. Es ist noch genauso kalt drau\u00dfen wie vorher, als Max in den Bus eingestiegen ist. Die Sonne ist schon weiter gestiegen, und langsam erhellt das Licht die Stadt. Doch Max sieht Wolken aufziehen. Es wird schneien!<br \/>\nEr geht um die Ecke, und sieht die T\u00fcr zur Augenarztpraxis vor ihm. Er klingelt, die T\u00fcr \u00f6ffnet, und Max geht hinein. Es ist viel w\u00e4rmer hier! Er zieht seine Lederjacke aus und h\u00e4ngt sie an den Kleiderst\u00e4nder.<br \/>\nAn der Rezeption sagt Max dem Assistenten: \u00bbIch habe einen Termin mit Dr. Jauch um neun.\u00ab<br \/>\n\u00bbStimmt! Es geht um einen Sehtest, richtig?\u00ab fragt der Assistent.<br \/>\n\u00bbGenau. Ich brauche den f\u00fcr meinen F\u00fchrerschein.\u00ab<br \/>\n\u00bbOk. Hast du deine Krankenversicherungskarte dabei?\u00ab<br \/>\nMax holt seine Brieftasche aus seiner Hosentasche und zeigt dem Assistenten die Karte. Sie wird kurz gescannt und an Max zur\u00fcckgegeben. Alles in Ordnung! Max setzt sich ins Wartezimmer.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Au\u00dfer Max ist das Wartezimmer leer. Dann wird er nicht zu lange warten m\u00fcssen! Durch das Fenster sieht Max, dass es angefangen hat zu schneien. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Der Raum ist schon weihnachtlich eingerichtet worden, auch wenn es bis Weihnachten noch ein ganzer Monat ist. Kitschige Rentierfiguren stehen auf den Tisch. In der Ecke steht ein kleiner Weihnachtsbaum, beschm\u00fcckt mit roten und wei\u00dfen Kugeln. Eine Weihnachtsgirlande h\u00e4ngt \u00fcber der T\u00fcr. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Max schnappt sich eine Zeitschrift und bl\u00e4ttert gelangweilt darin herum. <\/em>Wie bereiten Sie sich auf das gro\u00dfe Fest vor? 10 Tipps f\u00fcr das perfekte Weihnachtsfest!,<em> liest Max. Er mag Weihnachten, aber diesen ganzen Kram wochen-, ja monatelang vor dem Fest ist ihm zu viel. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u00bbHallo! Sch\u00f6n, dich zu sehen!\u00ab<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Dr. Jauch steht in der T\u00fcr. Er l\u00e4chelt Max an. Diesen Witz hat er schon oft geh\u00f6rt. Dr. Jauch macht ihn immer, wenn Max da ist! <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Fr\u00fcher ist Max \u00f6fter gekommen, zusammen mit seinem Vater. Er musste h\u00e4ufig zum Augenarzt, weil er Augenprobleme hatte. Er hatte wahnsinnige Angst, blind zu werden. Zum Gl\u00fcck ist jetzt alles gut, und er kann noch sehen. Daf\u00fcr braucht er aber sehr starke Brillengl\u00e4ser!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Max steht auf und folgt den Arzt in den Praxisraum. Er ist ein wenig nerv\u00f6s! Seine Augen sind doch gut, oder?<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"width: 551px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/54XALL\" aria-label=\"2670224692 489f3831b8 B\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\"  alt=\"\" width=\"541\" height=\"720\" \/ src=\"https:\/\/c2.staticflickr.com\/4\/3031\/2670224692_489f3831b8_b.jpg\"><\/a><p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Der Augenarzt (Image by Lisa Brewster at Flickr.com under license CC BY-SA 2.0)<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">THE TRANSLATION<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Chapter 6<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The bus stop is further away with every step. It is just as cold outside as before, when Max got on the bus. The sun has already risen further, and she slowly the light illuminates the city. Though Max sees clouds approaching. It will snow!<\/p>\n<p>He walks around the corner, and sees the door to the eye doctor&#8217;s practice in front of him. He rings, the door opens, and Max enters. It is much warmer here! He takes off his leather jacket and hangs it on the clothes tree.<\/p>\n<p>At the welcome desk, Max tells the assistent: &#8220;I have an appointment with Dr. Jauch at nine o&#8217;clock.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s right! It is for a vision test, right?&#8221; the assistant asks.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Exactly. I need it for my driver&#8217;s license.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;OK. Do you have your health insurance card with you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Max takes his wallet out of his pants pocket and shows the card to the assistant. It is briefly scanned and given back to Max. Everything&#8217;s in order! Max takes a seat in the waiting room.<\/p>\n<p>Except for Max, the waiting room is empty. He won&#8217;t have to wait too long, then! Through the window Max sees that it has started to snow.<\/p>\n<p>The room is already decorated festively for Christmas, even if it&#8217;s still one whole month until Christmas. Kitsch reindeer figures sit on the table. A small Christmas tree stands in the corner, decorated with red and white balls. A Christmas garland hangs from the door.<\/p>\n<p>Max grabs a magazine and, bored, browses through it. <em>How do you prepare yourself for the big celebration? <\/em><em>10 tips for the perfect Christmas celebration!<\/em>, Max reads. He likes Christmas, but all this stuff for weeks, even months before the celebration is too much for him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Hi! Nice, to see you!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Jauch is standing in the door. He smiles at Max. He has already heard this joke many times. Dr. Jauch always makes it, when Max is there!<\/p>\n<p>Back in the days, Max came more often, together with his father. He had to go to the eye doctor often, because he had eye problems. He was terribly scared to go blind. Fortunately, everything is fine now, and he can still see. He needs very strong glasses for that, however!<\/p>\n<p>Max gets up and follows the doctor to the practice room. He is a bit nervous. His eyes are good, right?<\/p>\n<p><u>SOME WORDS TO KEEP IN MIND<\/u><\/p>\n<table width=\"685\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">der Kleiderst\u00e4nder<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">clothes hanger, clothes tree<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">genauso \u2026 wie [vergl.]<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">just as \u2026 as [comp.]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">Stimmt!<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">That&#8217;s right!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">genau<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">exactly<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">Alles in Ordnung!<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">Everything is in order!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"403\">Alles in Ordnung?<\/td>\n<td width=\"282\">Are you alright?
