Saturday evening on the market square: stalls, lights, pancakes. Sun, then rain, then sun again, and you are in Ana's old raincoat. You are at the café stand, and you are the cat's minder. The concert will start at eight. Then Jure runs up: his mouthpiece is gone. And where is the cat?

Kava dva evra, palačinka tri. Vi sprejemajte denar, jaz pečem.
Coffee two euros, a pancake three. You take the money, I bake.

All right. Where is Muri? I have not seen him yet. I have to watch him.

Hvala, gospa Ana. Danes bom igral za vas.
Thank you, Ms Ana. Today I will play for you.
Jaz pa bom iskal Murija.
And I will look for Muri.

Ana opens her handbag and takes out a small old trumpet: the one from the photo. "I kept it." At eight Jure plays it and the whole square listens. At 20:14, in the middle of the first song, all the lights go out.
