A touching story of friendship between a ten-year-old girl and the Chancellor. It's pure chance that Chancellor Ernst Meister meets ten-year-old Emma. Meister gets lost in the Chancellery, and after several wrong turns, he suddenly finds himself outside. There, a girl is sitting playing with marbles. Shortly afterward, when Meister is rushed to the hospital with a suspected heart attack, he receives a card with the words "Friday 5" written in a child's handwriting, next to a marble taped to it. From then on, the Chancellor makes sure he has a few minutes for Emma every Friday at five. Because when you work in the Chancellery, it's easy to lose sight of what's truly important. And when you see the world through a child's eyes, you can rediscover precisely those things. A short novel about life's big questions and a plea for greater togetherness.
