Opening the reader…
There is a big clock behind Mrs Berg’s desk.
Υπάρχει ένα μεγάλο ρολόι πίσω από τη ρεσεψιόν της κυρίας Μπεργκ.
It says three o’clock. It is Friday afternoon.
Λέει τρεις η ώρα. Είναι Παρασκευή απόγευμα.
Mrs Berg takes her coat. That is new.
Η κυρία Μπεργκ παίρνει το παλτό της. Αυτό είναι καινούργιο.
“The doctor wants to see me,” she says. “Sit here.”
«Ο γιατρός θέλει να με δει», λέει. «Κάθισε εδώ.»
“Are you sick?”
«Είσαι άρρωστη;»
“No. Sit.”
«Όχι. Κάθισε.»
“At the desk?”
«Στη ρεσεψιόν;»
“Answer the telephone. Don’t use the computer.”
«Απάντα στο τηλέφωνο. Μη χρησιμοποιείς τον υπολογιστή.»
“What do I say?”
«Τι να πω;»
“The lift doesn’t work today.”
«Το ασανσέρ δεν δουλεύει σήμερα.»
She goes out. Nina sits behind the desk.
Βγαίνει. Η Νίνα κάθεται πίσω από τη ρεσεψιόν.
It is a good chair. Max sits on her shoe.
Είναι μια καλή καρέκλα. Ο Μαξ κάθεται πάνω στο παπούτσι της.
It is quiet. The clock works. The lift doesn’t.
Είναι ήσυχα. Το ρολόι δουλεύει. Το ασανσέρ δεν δουλεύει.
A man comes in with a letter.
Ένας άντρας μπαίνει με ένα γράμμα.
