We
met every evening after classes at her secretarial
school (Schubert
Ring No : 8) from then on as the "Down and
Out" business proceeded smoothly. I was confident
that the people involved on my side of the deal were
above reproach. They promised that all would go as
previously set out, with the reimbursement of my 65,000
Shilling lease rights and the release of S.'s family
from all financial commitment at the signing of the
new lease. The final meeting for the signature had
been set (At 4/5/1982 to 14.30 with Hausvervaltung
Realitat, Strasse Lerchenfelder 66-68 1070 Vienna)
and I was becoming very anxious to close this chapter
of my life.
That
morning, S. was acting strangely and I began to wonder
if the hold that her father had on her was stronger
than I suspected. She
told me not to come to the signing as it might be
dangerous. We had set a meeting in front of her school
at 7:00pm so that she could brief me as to how things
went at the signing.
After
all, I had no real choice in the matter.I still was
a little uneasy about S. so I waited across the street
from the realtor's office during the signing just
to see if things looked on the level. When everyone,
the pair taking over the lease and S. left the office,
they shook hands with each other and the realtor in
the most normal way. I felt reassured and couldn't
wait to hear the "thank you" that
she would offer me for saving her family from financial
ruin.
