It’s a tale about a cold heart jeweler, a lady, a boy and a young lady. He was not married but loved gold. When he, after many years, was getting old he realized that it was time to quit...
| The Jeweler | :(Locking the door, he said to himself.) it’s the last time I lock this door |
(Then he sat on his favorite chair. When he was sitting, a dirty lady knocked the door. He then opened it)
| The lady | : (silently) excuse me, Sir; I seek shelter from the cold |
| The Jeweler | : (looking at her from top to toe) well, then you should seek it somewhere else. |
(In the next evening, a little boy knocked the door. The jeweler then opened it)
| The boy | : (with tears in his eyes) Sorry, Sir; I seek shelter from the cold. |
| The Jeweler | : (looking at him) then look for it somewhere else. |
(A couple days and nights later, a beautiful young lady knocked the door. The jeweler then opened it)
| The Jeweler | : (gently) are you seeking shelter from the cold? You’re welcome here |
| The young lady | : I see. I’m welcome in your house, but you’d never offer the poor people a piece of shelter from the cold night |
| The Jeweler | : (sighing) I guess not, but they disgusted
me |
| The young lady | :(going to a window and pointing outside) they died in the cold night because of your cold heart and shallowness. And
that will also be the things that will kill you one day. |
| The Jeweler | :(getting scared and kneeling) I’m sorry, I’m begging you. It shall never happen again |
| The beautiful young lady | : it’s too late, your cold heart is going to be your own destiny (turned around and disappeared) |
(The following morning, the jeweler was lying on the bed. He didn’t breathe, he didn’t move, he was dead)
| The young lady | : (standing next to his bed and bending over) I told you that your cold heart would be your own destiny and that what exactly what happened. |
