"Hei, Siri," sa han med lett stemme. "Så fint å se deg igjen."En: Mikkel waved her over. "Hi, Siri," he said in a light voice. "So nice to see you again."Nb: Siri smilte tilbake, men det var et nervøst smil. "Hei, Mikkel. Hvordan går det?"En: Siri smiled back, but it was a nervous smile. "Hi, Mikkel.
