You want to thank everyone with a dinner on Saturday. You send messages and knock on doors. Dario can't; he must... (a list). Ivana is working. Lana must ask her grandma, and Mira does not even open her door.

"Dragi susjedi i Dario! Hvala za sve. U subotu u sedam navečer pozivam vas na večeru. Kod mene."
'Dear neighbours and Dario! Thank you for everything. On Saturday, at seven in the evening, I'm inviting you to dinner. At my place.'

"Bit će juhe, palačinki i kolača. Sam kuham!"
'There'll be soup, pancakes and cake. I'm cooking myself!'

Dario
"Oprostite, ne mogu. U subotu moram: jedan, oprati prozore; dva, kupiti papir; tri, još nešto."
'Sorry, I won't be able to. On Saturday I have to: one, wash the windows; two, buy paper; three, something else.'
Tri posla u subotu navečer? A što je to "nešto", Dario?
Three jobs on a Saturday evening? And what is this 'something', Dario?

"U subotu radim cijelu večer. Možda drugi put?"
'On Saturday I'm working all evening. Maybe another time?'
Lana
"Moram pitati baku!!!"
'I have to ask Grandma!!!'
Dobro. Sam ću pitati Miru.
All right. I'll ask Mira myself.

The door stays shut. Miki walks past you and down the stairs without looking at you.
You knock on Mira's door. Behind it someone whispers. Then nothing.
Gospođo Miro? Jeste li kod kuće?
Mrs Mira? Are you at home?

Gospođo Miro, zidovi su ovdje tanki. Čujem Vas.
Mrs Mira, the walls in this house are thin. I can hear you.

Luka comes down and sits next to you on the stairs.
Luka
Svi su zauzeti? Ni ja ne mogu. Sviram u subotu.
Everyone's busy? I can't come either. I'm playing on Saturday.
Svi. Nitko ne može u subotu.
Everyone. Nobody can come on Saturday.

Luka
Stvarno želiš otići?
You really want to leave?
Ne znam. Možda u glavni grad. Tamo je jako dobar posao.
I don't know. Maybe I'll go to the capital. There's a very good job there.

I ja sam jednom otišao iz broja sedam. Imao sam osamnaest godina.
I left number 7 once too. I was eighteen.
I?
And?

Vratio sam se.
And I came back.
Zašto si se vratio?
Why did you come back?

U glavnom gradu ima mnogo ljudi. Ali nitko ne zna tvoje ime.
There are lots of people in the capital. But nobody there knows your name.
