Young men got ill

Don't climb on the railing, you could fall

I wont fall

You don't know that

Would I die if I fell down here

I think you should not try to find out, Benjamin

One time our summer felt like eternity

We were wandering around in the sunshine without end

We were sinking in smells of green deep without end and felt no fear

Pancakes are ready

How did we forget holy affinity our day was to short

What a lovely weather

Jehova, we thank you for today and that we are your witnesses

We beg you to look after Margaretha

Something country boys knew about Stockholm was this

In Stockholm were the gay guys

And the gay guys met by the gayring at the central station

Where they met and went home to fuck

Rasmus had been waiting for 19 years

And there it was, the gay ring

Hey sweetheart, do you have a lighter?

Hey, finally. Come in. Sara called at least six times to see if you arrived

Are you hungry -No

Hallo

I used to dream before I went to Stockholm that I would live so I could see the City hall

And now I do, look

I think you will like it here

There is Lars-�ke, hello. Whole city seems to be out today. Move in Bengt sweetheart so everybody can sit

Hi my name is Brita I am a witness of jehovah. This is my son Benjamin. -Hi I want to leave you this

How did it go today Benjamin?

It is always good

Good job.

Even if they wont listen, you are doing God's work

Today we met a gentleman that was very interested

What did you read?

Revelation book 21:4

Tears from your eyes, and death will not exist anymore and sorrow, scream and pain What once existed is now gone

Revelation book 21:4

I want to show you this part too, do you want me to read it for you?

Wake up?

Well hello, what have we here?

Hi, my name is Benjamin I am a vitness of Jehovah. I want to ask if you tought about why God allows misery. -But you don't wanna talk about that out here, come in for God's sake.

Do you want coffe, wine or gin and tonic? Or do you drink when you are a christian?

Coffe please

Beautiful young man. For you I would do anything, but not coffe I dont have time. Booz or nothing. I was packinp christmas things, I know it's only october but it is so much shit i need to take out. You know how it is.

No, I don't celebrate Christmas

But sweetheart I am a jew, I don't celebrate christmas either. But we are talking glitter and that I want. Sit down there.

When you read the bible. -Anything you want sweetheart as long as you have a fantastic picture of a family on a picnic with a tiger and a sheep next to a lake in the Alps.

Do you have that? Let me see.

Here it is, wonderful picture. Say what you wanted to say.

I want to read a piece from the Revelation book.

But I already like the whole concept. Did you not hear that. I go down on my knees whenever you want.

A cult that can produce this amazing stuff. I am in. Just that you wanted to come in. Darling i am in heaven.

Maybe this was a bad time -Not at all

You read

Now you know where I live

Yes I do

Welcome back whenever you want

I might come in a week so you can read more.

I am already in honey, but come back. You should come on christmas eve More nice people will come. You have to try to celebrate christmas.

Thanks, nice of you. I will think about it.

One more thing sweetheart. You know that you are homosexual right?

You are late

Do you want food? -No, it is ok.

We were expecting you for dinner

Sorry, it took a bit longer than i expected.

How did it go today?

Well, it is always good.

How is the university? Did you meet any new people yet?

No, well yeah

You should go to the university clubs, it is the best way to find friends.

Yeah

May I ask what you are doing out all night, I never get to see you.

Sara is calling all the time and I dont know what to tell her. You got to understand she is worried. You know how she is.

I have not told Sara that you are out every night.

But Rasmus, you are careful right? You never know what could happend. Stockholm can be a tought, cold city.

Curry again? -Was this for me?

Hey, are you a member of RFSL? - I want to be Okey, sign this form.

There you go, then you can write if you want the magazine sent to you.

That is not a good idea, I live with my aunt.

You do what you want but it will come in a brown envelop without sender.

Ok then

That will cost 150 crowns

Wow, that was expensive.

A beer

Stockholm 20 years ago was completely different city.

Small, dark and provincial

For a homosexual there was one place you could go.

Sometimes RFSL was the only option.

I'm going out for a while -where are you going then? for a walk

Some fresh air, goodnight then

But for us that were to scared to go, that were to scared to exist

We had the parks

Skinnarviksparken, Humleg�rden

Kronobergsparken

L�ngholmen

City Hall

and Klara norra kyrkogatan of course

Or Klara porno was it called

Fucking fags

And the bathroom at central station

Is it you Benjamin? -Yes

That was a long walk.

Goodnight -Nite

Rasmus moved too -Yes, I know that

So soon after graduation.

It was last spring.

You saw him in his graduation hat, he was so handsome.

Harald, can you get the photo album? -Mm

Karlstad or what? -Stockholm Oh, Stockholm

Is he going to study then? -Yeah, yes he is.

Hey, how is it going? -Good What do you like?

Everything -Want to come then? -Okey

Like we don't have any schools closer. -Harald Yeah, yeah you know what I know

How dare you let him go to Stockholm?

What can you do, he is 19 after all.

And he lives with my sister, it will be fine.

Rasmus has always been a little, how to say it..special

There is nothing wrong with Rasmus.

He will be home soon anyway. -Harald!

Yeah, yeah yeah. You know I am right.

What is that?

I don't know, I have one here too.

Allergy or something.

Is it bothering you? -No

He did not fit in here, am I not right Harald?

What would he have been here? Can you tell me that?

I am not worried, not at all.

Rasmus is careful and sweet, he would not do anything stupid.

Be careful. -I am careful.

It is in now, all the way in.

I have heard that they put drugs in oranges and trick people to eat so they get addicted.

In Stockholm? Maybe it is just something they say?

I am gonna cum now. -Cum Cum Cum

God so disgusting, the worst thing I have heard.

Listen here, listen!

Poppers can cause cancer according to a research from �rhus university.

So now we can't take poppers anymore?

They are looking for the cancer that affects homosexual men.

In Denmark four men got it so far and they think it is caused by poppers.

Cancer, what kind of thing is that to write about?

They died, all of them!

Bitches, typical dramaqueens. I am going to have another beer.

Yeah I can take one. -Lars-�ke? No, I am good.

Two beers please.

I am going to Klara norra to see if something is going on there.

Are you going out again?

Just a little while.

Have fun! -mm

Be careful -I will try.

Bye.

Do you have a lighter?

Thanks

We have met before

I know -I know that you know

At the gay ring at central station

Actually, you were the first gay I saw after I got off the train.

So, new in town? -Yeah.

Where are you from? -V�rmland.

And you went to the gay ring right away?

You don't waste time, do you?

And now you found Klara norra.

We are not on the flip-side here.

I have been waiting for 19 years about time right?

Absolutely, you have to fuck for the time you have lost. I am on your side.

Poor little boy, then you are lucky you met Paul then. I will take care of you in the scary big City.

For a start you have to come to me on Christmas eve.

Are you not going to celebrate with your family then?

Can you hold on for a moment, we are talking about important stuff. I will be right back.

Horny damn guy.

Of coure I will, you should always spend Christmas with your family.

You just have to define family, right?

What the fuck!

Do you have a paper and a pen?

Call me later -Bye

My name is Paul, do not forget.

Have fun!

Did you find any blueberrys darling?

Can i look in the basket?

Don't eat them all, we have to save some.

Daddy, it is hot with the boots.

That might be true, but we wear boots in the forrest if we step on a snake by accident.

Sara, Rasmus. Come!

Look over there! -Wow

Look Rasmus, a white moose.

It is not an albino, just different genes.

It is just different.

And Rasmus, do you know what? Here in V�rmland there is a whole family of this kind.

A long time ago they belived they had magic powers.

And it meant bad luck to shoot them

Who would want to kill such a beautiful animal?

Many, that think they should not exist. That they don't belong here.

But it does exist.

Yes it does, it does.

No, it is leaving.

But it was fun to see, right Rasmus?

Hey, I

Are you not going to say. Bla bla bla my name is Benjamin, I want to talk about Jesus.

May I come in? -Of course.

I have been waiting on you.

No brochure you want me to look at?

How did you know? -What?

How did you know? -Oh that

Sweetheart it is so obvious.

Oh my God.

What did you say?

It is God that is testing me.

Yeah, I guess that is true then.

All of my life, to love somone that is like me.

You know what, my beautiful young friend

I really think it is time for you to celebrate your first christmas.

He does not want to come home for Christmas? Of course he will. Can I talk to him?

I am talking now.

Symptoms are in the beginning not noticable.

It gets worse after a couple of months.

Poor people.

Sickness and decises.

What do they expect when they live like that without morals.

But still, poor people.

Now we are not watching that anymore.

Stop that nonsense. Sit down anywhere so we can eat.

Here is oysters, shrimps,clams,brussel sprouts, lobster,meatballs,princewiener

A great mix

But darlings, that is the story of my life.

Not so kosher for a jew.

They would have stoned me anyway.

By the way. I had sex once with an Orthodox jew once in a park in Tel Aviv.

Yeah, with corkscrews and everything.

And the corkscrews were swinging back and forth with he was giving me blowjob.

I asked him if it was a sin. The bible clearly says it is forbidden for a man to have sex with a man.

Absolutely he said, but I have never had sex I was on my knees the entire time.

He is like that, you dont have to listen all the time.

What is wrong with you Reine? Are you not going to eat?

I don't know. My mouth is sore. I've got yeast infection or something.

More Champagne? -Yes please.

Benjamin by the way.
