{1}{2}1 Danni
Danni stannade till framför de enorma dubbeldörrarna, på Nevlongs äldsta bibliotek och hämtade andan en stund.
Den vackra byggnaden med dess höga fönster och gammeldags utsmyckning reste sig imponerande framför henne.
En envis regndroppe letade sig in innanför den uppfällda jackkragen och en plötslig vindil piskade upp mer regn i ansiktet.
Snabbt ruskade hon av den värsta vätan och skyndade in i biblioteket.
Värmen spred sig som alltid inom henne när hon såg sig omkring.
Doften av gamla böcker, atmosfären och möjligheten till verklighetsflykt.
Hon hade världens bästa jobb.
Det kittlade till i näsan och hon nös upprepade gånger.
Idag skulle hon nog undvika att dra det vanliga andetaget för att njuta av doften, istället gällde det att snabbt få tag på ett snorpapper.
Droppen som hängde på nästippen hotade att falla och locka henne till fler nysningar.
– Åh, jag undrade just om det var du eller ett snörvel-monster som attackerade.
Siris retsamma röst hördes bakifrån.
Danni hoppade till.
Siri flinade med hela ansiktet och sträckte fram en bit papper till henne.
– Typiskt av dig att skrämmas så.
Nu flydde snörvel-monstret som en blixt och glömde att ta snoret med sig.
Kvar är jag med en droppande näsa och kalla fötter i gummistövlar.
Danni stampade med fötterna så vattnet skvätte.
Kindmusklerna stramade när läpparna pressades samman för att inte avslöja ett leende.
Ögonen glittrade av undertryckt skratt.
– Oroa dig inte.
Hon kommer tillbaka.
Regn, vind och kalla näsor är det bästa hon vet.
Om du inte tänkt måla vattenkonst i hela entrén kan jag ta din regnkappa.
Danni krånglade av sig kappan.
Mudden på tröjan var fuktig.
Det var dags att uppgradera regnstället.
På golvet runt henne fanns redan flera pölar och hon suckade.
Här behövs en mopp.
Rysningen drog över ryggen och håren på armarna reste sig i protest.
Näsan rynkades och ett lätt illamående gurglade upp tillsammans med minnen från barndomen.
Åren hos Angretta.
Den levande mardrömmen.
Blicken blev tom och för en stund var Danni tillbaka i tiden.

Translation - English
Danni
Danni stopped in front of the giant double doors at Nevlong’s oldest library and caught her breath for a moment.
The beautiful building with its high windows old fashioned ornaments rose impressively in front of her.
A stubborn raindrop found its way down her upraised coat collar and a sudden gust of wind whipped even more rain in her face.
She quickly shock off the worst wetness and hurried into the library.
A feeling of warmth spread inside of her, as it always did, when she looked around.
The smell of old books, the atmosphere and the possibilities of escaping the world.
She had the best job in the world.
Her nose tickled and she sneezed repeatedly.
Today was the day to avoid the usual deep breath and instead hurriedly find a tissue.
The drop at the tip of her nose threatened to fall and lure some more sneezing.
- Oh, I wondered if it was you or some sniveling monster attacking.
Siris tantalizing voice came from behind.
Danni jumped.
Siri grinned and held out a piece of paper towards her.
- Typically of you to scare me like that.
Now the sniveling monster escaped like a lightning and forgot to take the snot with her.
I am still here with a dripping nose and cold feet in rubber boots.
Danni stomped her feet and made the water splash.
Her cheek muscle tightened when she pressed her lips together in an attempt not to reveal a smile.
The eyes sparkled with depressed laughter.
- Don’t worry.
She will be back.
Rain, wind and cold noses are her favourites.
If you didn’t plan to paint water art in all of the entrance hall, I can take you raincoat.
Danni wriggled her way out of the coat.
The wristlet of her jumper was damp.
It was time to upgrade the raincoat.
On the floor around her were already multiple puddles of water and she sighed.
This requires a mop.
The chill ran down her spine and her arm hair raised itself in protest.
Her nose wrinkled and a slight nausea gurgled up together with memories from her childhood.
The years with Angretta.
The living nightmare.
Her eyes went blank and for a moment Danni was back in time.
