Notre Dame de Paris... I've always dreamed about this place. I love this Place more than anyone else. Because I fell in love with the Story of the Hunchback of Notre Dame and especially him, Quasimodo. For me, it would be the greatest to meet him. Even If I knew that this would be never be possible, I always dream about this. So this is how this Story was made. So many years. Inside my head. I want to share I with you, even If it's the first time, I tell a story wich is so long in english.
11 Years back then, in 2008, I was in Paris. My Mother and me, we made our first Holiday ever. We never had the Money for something like that. But someone in our Family has passed away and leaved many Money behind, and we got some too. Enough for 3 Days in Paris. One thing I couldn't miss was visiting Notre Dame de Paris. At Day 2 we drive there from Disneyland Paris where our Hotel was. I was really excited to be here. My heart beated so heavy as never before. Because I felt so close to Quasimodo here. I came from the Metro station and was unstoppable. I ran to Notre Dame and stopped as I stood in front of her. I wanted to memorize every part of her. This Cathedral was in the reality much prettier in realty as I ever imangined.
My Mother came many Meters behind me and shouted at me: "Would you please wait for me???"
"Sorry.", I responsed.
We entered the Cathedral and the inside was much more beautyful. As I looked around, it was like a magnetic power who dragged me to the stairs of the Belltower.
"You want to go up? I wait here." said my mother an took a seat on a bank.
I smiled at her and started to go up the stairs. Okay, Notre Dame is not as big as the Colonge Cathedral where I was in the belltower too, many years ago. But it was very hard. I hardly catch my breath as I reached the end of the hundreds and hundred stairs.
I bearly lost consciousness as I reached the Belltower. As I looked up, I saw a strange light coming in front of me. As it faded, I heard a voice wich I had recognized anytime.
"Good mornig. Would today be the day? You're ready to fly?"
What? No way?! I stood there, shocked. Staring at him, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Quasimodo.
As Quasimodo encouraged the little Bird to fly, I stared at him with my Heart wich seems to jump out of my chest.
As the Bird flied away, the gargoyles around him came to life and spoke to him about the Feast of Fools. Quasimodo looked very depressed and turned away in a sad mood. I decided to follow him without hom noticing me. I hide behind the door wich lead to his realm and listened to him and the gargoyles.
I wanted to talk to him too. But something held me back. I am very shy. I could never easily make the first step to meet someone. Except this person I admired more than any other in the World!
What's wrong with you? C'on this is your chance to meet him! Talk to him! said a Voice inside my head wich sounded like mine. But I was like made of stone, I couldn't move.
In the next instant, Frollo came into the Belltower and I was now not only made of stone, now I was frightened. I heard every word they're saying. About Quasimodo wanted to leave the tower and how people would treat him if he would do that. After Frollo seed this evil words inside Quasimodos head that he is a monster, Frollo leaved. Quasimodo sat there, quiet and sad in front of his Paris Model as I step out from my hiding Place.
"Don't listen to him. He is not right."
Quasimodo turned around, stared at me, frightend and jumped off in the shadow.
"No, don't be afraid. I don't wanna harm you."
Slowly, Quasimodo came back to me.
"Who are you? You look so strange."
