Mevrouw Berg kijkt naar haar computer.
Mrs Berg looks at her computer.
“Vanavond komt er een man,” zegt ze. “Marco Rossi. Hij heeft een reservering.”
“A man comes tonight,” she says. “Marco Rossi. He has a booking.”
“Twee nachten, kamer twaalf.”
“Two nights, room twelve.”
“Oké,” zegt Nina. “Wil hij ontbijt?”
“OK,” Nina says. “Does he want breakfast?”
“Iedereen wil ontbijt,” zegt mevrouw Berg. “Iedereen wil jouw brood.”
“Everybody wants breakfast,” Mrs Berg says. “Everybody wants your bread.”
Nina glimlacht. Ze is moe.
Nina smiles. She is tired.
Elke ochtend om vijf uur is ze in de keuken.
Every morning at five o’clock she is in the kitchen.
Nu wil ze slapen.
Now she wants to sleep.

“Marco Rossi also has a booking for the fourteenth.”
“Dezelfde man?”
“The same man?”
