Mistä sinä oikein kiitit? Sinähän se minut tänne toit, kysyi Vova, kun he astelivat iloisesti pois ravintolalta. Minä kiitin siitä, että sain ruokailla sinun seurassasi, vastasi Hannes aikailematta. Vovan oli vaikea uskoa sitä todeksi.
What exactly were you grateful for? It was you that brought me here, Vova asked when they happily walked away from the restaurant. I was thankful that I was able to dine with you, Hannes answered without hesitating. It was hard for Vova to believe it as true.
