Saturday evening, under the roof of number 7. Luka's flat is small: a bed, a table, a chair, a lot of sheet music, and the trumpet.
Večer je. Luka živi gore. Njegov stan je mali, ali lijep.
Evening. Luka lives upstairs. His flat is small, but nice.
Na stolu je truba. Na krevetu je Miki.
On the table: the trumpet. On the bed: Miki.
LukaDobra večer, Miki! Jesi li gladan?
Good evening, Miki! Are you hungry?
His phone rings. On the screen it says: Mama.
Zove ga mama. Živi daleko.
It's his mum calling. She lives far away.
LukaHalo? O, mama! Dobra večer!
Hello? Oh, Mum! Good evening!
- Lukina mama
Bok, Luka! Kako si?
Hi, Luka! How are you?
- Luka
Dobro, hvala. A ti?
Fine, thanks. And you?
- Lukina mama
Ne baš dobro. Živiš daleko, a ja sam sama ovdje.
Not great. You live far away, and I'm here on my own.
- Lukina mama
Radiš li sada?
Are you working at the moment?
- Luka
Da, mama. Sviram. Glazbenik sam.
Yes, Mum. I play. I'm a musician.
- Lukina mama
Glazbenik! To nije posao. Treba ti pravi posao.
A musician! That's not a job. You need a real job.

He puts the phone down and looks at the trumpet for a long time.
- Luka
Pravi posao... Miki, ni ti nemaš posao.
A real job... Miki, you don't have a job either.
Miki spava. On je ovdje gazda. Ne treba mu posao.
Miki is asleep. He's the boss here. He doesn't need a job.
A knock. Two friends come in: Filip with a double bass in a big case, and Ema with a small drum under her arm.
