Opening the reader…
Nina runs to the kitchen door.
Η Νίνα τρέχει στην πόρτα της κουζίνας.
“Grandma!” she shouts.
«Γιαγιά!» φωνάζει.
She puts her hands on the door. It doesn’t open.
Βάζει τα χέρια της στην πόρτα. Δεν ανοίγει.
“Grandma! It is me! It is Nina!”
«Γιαγιά! Εγώ είμαι! Η Νίνα είμαι!»
There is nothing behind the door. It is very quiet.
Δεν υπάρχει τίποτα πίσω από την πόρτα. Είναι πολύ ήσυχα.
She takes out her key. Her hand is cold.
Παίρνει το κλειδί της. Το χέρι της είναι κρύο.
She puts it to the door. It doesn’t go in.
Το βάζει στην πόρτα. Δεν μπαίνει.
Not this door.
Όχι αυτή η πόρτα.
She knows those words. She knows them from the first day.
Ξέρει αυτές τις λέξεις. Τις ξέρει από την πρώτη μέρα.
The door of the hotel opens. Mrs Berg comes in with rain on her coat.
Η πόρτα του ξενοδοχείου ανοίγει. Η κυρία Μπεργκ μπαίνει με βροχή στο παλτό της.
She looks at Nina. She looks at the key.
Κοιτάζει τη Νίνα. Κοιτάζει το κλειδί.
She looks at the telephone on the desk.
Κοιτάζει το τηλέφωνο πάνω στη ρεσεψιόν.
“That door is closed,” she says.
«Αυτή η πόρτα είναι κλειστή», λέει.
“My grandma is in your kitchen!”
«Η γιαγιά μου είναι στην κουζίνα σου!»
