“Yine siz! İyi akşamlar!”
“You again! Good evening!”
Bugün salı, saat 21.15. Siyah çantalı uzun adam biniyor. Uzun palto. Üzgün yüz. İlk koltuk.
It is Tuesday, 9:15. The tall man with the black case gets on. The long coat. The sad face. The first seat.
“İyi akşamlar.”
“Good evening.”
“Ben Rosa. Siz kimsiniz?”
“I’m Rosa. And you are...?”
Aynadan bana uzun uzun bakıyor.
He looks at me in the mirror for a long time.
“Jonas.”
“Jonas.”
“Jonas! Güzel. Artık arkadaşız.”
“Jonas! Good. Now we are friends.”
Evet demiyor. Hayır da demiyor. Ben sürüyorum.
He doesn’t say yes. He doesn’t say no. I drive.
Çarşamba günü çantayı soruyorum. Siyah ve ağır. Hep dizlerinin üstünde.
On Wednesday I ask about the case. It is black and heavy. He always has it on his knees.
“İçinde ne var, Jonas? Silah mı?”
“What’s in there, Jonas? A gun?”
“Hayır. Aletler.”
“No. Tools.”
“Aletler mi? Ne aletleri?”
“Tools? What tools?”
“Küçük aletler.”
“Small tools.”
Küçük aletler, gece, kapalı bir kilisede. Eski kiliselerde altın ve gümüş var. Gümüş kâseler, altın şamdanlar. Bu fikri sevmiyorum. Komik olmaya çalışıyorum.
Small tools, at night, in a closed church. Old churches have gold and silver. Silver cups, gold candles. I don’t like this idea. I try to be funny.
