- 0:01She said 5:30. It is already 5:40.
- 0:04Let me send her a quick text to see if
- 0:07she is ready.
- 0:11You.
- 0:12Hi, Leo.
- 0:14Why are you standing at our gate like a
- 0:15security guard? I am waiting for Lena.
- 0:19Waiting for Lena? Did she know this?
- 0:22Yes, we have to take notes from Maya's
- 0:24house. Then why is she not here? That is
- 0:28what I also want to know.
- 0:31Come in.
- 0:32I can wait here. No, if mom sees a boy
- 0:35standing outside, she will ask 20
- 0:37questions. If I take you in, she will
- 0:39ask only 10. So, notes.
- 0:42Yes. Only notes? Yes, Leo, only notes.
- 0:46Why didn't Maya come? She is already at
- 0:49her house. We are going there.
- 0:52And you came here first because Lena
- 0:54asked me to.
- 0:55>> Leo, who is this?
- 0:57>> This is Alex, Lena's friend. He is here
- 0:59for notes.
- 1:00>> Notes are in a bag or notes are a person
- 1:02now?
- 1:03>> Good evening, auntie. Lena told me to
- 1:05come at 5:30.
- 1:06>> Then where is Lena?
- 1:07>> In her room.
- 1:08>> [laughter]
- 1:10>> Lena, come out. Your friend is sitting
- 1:12here. I am coming. That is what you said
- 1:155 minutes ago.
- 1:17I cannot find the notebook.
- 1:19>> Your friend found the house. You can
- 1:21find one notebook.
- 1:24>> Leo, don't talk to him too much.
- 1:26>> Too late.
- 1:28>> What did you ask him?
- 1:30>> Normal questions.
- 1:31>> There is no normal question when you ask
- 1:34it.
- 1:35You came inside?
- 1:37>> Leo told me to.
- 1:39>> Of course he did.
- 1:41>> I saved him from standing outside like a
- 1:43lost student.
- 1:44>> Mom, we are going to Maya's house. I
- 1:46will come back before 8:00. 8:00 means
- 1:488:00, not 8:30.
- 1:50>> I will drop her on time, auntie.
- 1:53>> You will drop her or she will forget the
- 1:55time again?
- 1:56>> Leo.
- 1:58>> What? I am helping the family.
- 2:01>> You are enjoying this.
- 2:03>> A little.
- 2:05College friend?
- 2:07>> Yes, Dad. Alex.
- 2:09>> Come home before it gets too dark.
- 2:12Yes, uncle.
- 2:14Can we go now?
- 2:15>> Before Leo starts a second round.
- 2:21I am sorry.
- 2:23>> For what?
- 2:24>> For making you wait and for my brother.
- 2:27>> He is okay. He only asked if I came for
- 2:30notes.
- 2:31>> That means he asked five more things
- 2:32after that.
- 2:35>> Seven.
- 2:37>> [laughter]
- 2:38>> I knew it.
- 2:40>> It was a little funny.
- 2:41And a little scary.
- 2:42>> Welcome to my house.
- 2:45>> Next time I will message you from the
- 2:46next street.
- 2:48>> Next time I will come down first.
- 2:50>> You always say that.
- 2:53>> Today I mean it.
- 2:54>> Then say it after we reach Maya's house.
- 2:56I want to believe it.
- 2:58>> You sound like Leo now.
- 3:00>> Please don't say that.
- 3:02>> [laughter]
- 3:06>> Alex.
- 3:07>> What?
- 3:09>> The door isn't opening.
- 3:11>> Try again.
- 3:14>> It's locked.
- 3:16>> That's impossible.
- 3:19>> [sighs]
- 3:22>> Lena, are you still looking for that
- 3:24book?
- 3:24>> Yes, I need it for tomorrow's
- 3:26assignment.
- 3:27>> You've been looking for it for almost 20
- 3:29minutes.
- 3:30>> Because you keep distracting me.
- 3:32>> Me? I'm just helping.
- 3:35I found this one.
- 3:37>> That's the book I already finished.
- 3:39>> Oh.
- 3:41>> See? Not very helpful.
- 3:43>> Fine, I'll find the right one.
- 3:48>> Wait, I think I found it.
- 3:50Yes, this is the one.
- 3:53>> Finally.
- 3:54>> Let's go before the library closes.
- 3:57>> Good idea. Let's head out.
- 4:02>> Alex.
- 4:04>> What?
- 4:06>> The door isn't opening.
- 4:08>> Try again.
- 4:11>> It's locked.
- 4:13>> That's impossible.
- 4:15>> I think we're locked inside.
- 4:18>> You're joking, right?
- 4:20>> [sighs]
- 4:20>> I wish I were.
- 4:22It's locked. We can't get out.
- 4:24>> Let me try. It's definitely locked.
- 4:27>> Maybe the librarian is still here.
- 4:29>> Hello! Is anyone here? No answer. It's
- 4:33so quiet.
- 4:34>> What if no one comes?
- 4:37>> How did nobody notice us?
- 4:39>> We were sitting in the back section.
- 4:42>> Great. We're officially the last two
- 4:44people in the library.
- 4:45>> This isn't funny, Alex.
- 4:48>> I'm not laughing.
- 4:49>> You are smiling.
- 4:52>> [sighs]
- 4:52>> I'm trying not to panic.
- 4:54>> You're making me more nervous.
- 4:57>> Okay. Okay. Let's think.
- 5:00>> We should find another way to contact
- 5:02someone.
- 5:07>> Do you have your phone?
- 5:09>> Yes.
- 5:10Oh, no.
- 5:12>> What?
- 5:13>> My battery is almost dead.
- 5:15>> Mine, too.
- 5:16>> You have got to be kidding me.
- 5:22>> Don't worry. Someone will notice we're
- 5:24missing.
- 5:25>> I hope so.
- 5:28>> You know what?
- 5:29>> What?
- 5:31>> At least we have books.
- 5:37>> This is so strange.
- 5:39>> What is?
- 5:41>> Usually when we're together, there's
- 5:43always something happening.
- 5:45>> You're right.
- 5:46>> But now there's nothing.
- 5:48>> Maybe that's not such a bad thing.
- 5:52>> Why?
- 5:53>> Because we never really sit and talk.
- 5:57>> We talk all the time.
- 5:59>> We talk about assignments, classes,
- 6:01food, and who's late.
- 6:03>> That's true.
- 6:04>> But we don't talk about ourselves.
- 6:07>> Okay. Then tell me something I don't
- 6:09know about you.
- 6:10>> Something you don't know?
- 6:12>> Yes.
- 6:14>> I actually hate being alone in quiet
- 6:16places.
- 6:17>> Really? You always seem confident.
- 6:20>> I just pretend to be.
- 6:22>> I didn't know that.
- 6:24>> Now you do.
- 6:26>> My turn?
- 6:27>> Your turn.
- 6:28>> I get nervous when I feel like I've
- 6:30disappointed someone.
- 6:33>> Even your friends?
- 6:34>> Especially my friends.
- 6:37>> You don't have to worry about that with
- 6:39me.
- 6:40>> Thanks, Alex.
- 6:41>> You're welcome.
- 6:43>> Did you hear that?
- 6:45>> Yes.
- 6:46>> Someone's here.
- 6:53Hello! We're inside.
- 6:55>> Excuse me, can you hear us?
- 6:58>> Please don't leave.
- 7:03>> Who's inside?
- 7:05>> It's Lena and Alex. We were studying
- 7:07here.
- 7:08>> Unfortunately, yes.
- 7:10You two [music] are still inside?
- 7:13I thought everyone had left.
- 7:19Are you both okay?
- 7:22>> Yes, we're fine.
- 7:23>> Just a little embarrassed.
- 7:26Next time, make sure you leave before
- 7:28closing.
- 7:30>> We definitely will.
- 7:32>> I don't think I'll forget this day.
- 7:35>> Neither will I.
- 7:37>> Go home before you two find another room
- 7:39to get locked in.
- 7:41Come on, Lena.
- 7:42>> Let's get out of here.
- 7:47>> You know what?
- 7:49>> What now?
- 7:51>> We came to the library to find one book.
- 7:55>> And ended up making a whole story.
- 7:57>> [music]
- 7:58>> Exactly.
- 8:02>> I'm never going to forget the moment you
- 8:03said, "At least we have books."
- 8:06>> That was a good idea.
- 8:08>> It was the worst idea.
- 8:10>> You were the one who wanted to find that
- 8:12book.
- 8:13>> Don't blame me.
- 8:17>> I'm just saying.
- 8:19>> [laughter and gasps]
- 8:20>> But honestly, I'm glad you were there.
- 8:23>> Why?
- 8:24>> Because being locked inside alone would
- 8:26have been scary.
- 8:27>> [music]
- 8:27>> Same.
- 8:32>> [music]
- 8:32>> And we actually talked about things we
- 8:34never talk about.
- 8:35>> So maybe getting locked in the library
- 8:37wasn't completely bad.
- 8:39>> Maybe.
- 8:40>> Friends?
- 8:42>> We already are.
- 8:45>> I know. I just wanted to hear you say
- 8:48it.
- 8:49>> You're impossible.
- 8:51>> And you're still my friend.
- 8:53>> Unfortunately.
- 8:57>> [laughter]
- 9:02>> Lena, what are you looking at so
- 9:03carefully?
- 9:05>> This pen, Mom.
- 9:06>> You still keep it in that little box?
- 9:09>> Yes. I always keep it safe.
- 9:12>> It must be very special to you.
- 9:14>> It is. Grandma gave me this pen on my
- 9:17birthday.
- 9:18It was the last birthday gift she gave
- 9:20me.
- 9:21I still remember that day.
- 9:23She said, "Whenever you write with this
- 9:25pen, remember to follow your dreams."
- 9:28Yes. Every time I see this pen, I
- 9:31remember Grandma's smile.
- 9:33>> Then why don't you use it?
- 9:36>> I'm afraid something might happen to it.
- 9:39It's not an expensive pen,
- 9:41but it's the most precious gift I have.
- 9:44>> [music]
- 9:45>> Your grandma loved you very much.
- 9:47>> I know, Mom.
- 9:49Whenever I miss her, I hold this pen for
- 9:52a few minutes.
- 9:54>> I'm sure grandma would be very happy to
- 9:56see you taking such good care of her
- 9:58gift.
- 9:59>> I promise I'll always protect it.
- 10:10>> Lena, did you finish yesterday's
- 10:12assignment?
- 10:13>> Yes, I stayed up late, but I finished
- 10:15it.
- 10:17>> That's great. I finished mine, too.
- 10:19>> Oh, I forgot my notebook in my locker.
- 10:22>> Go and get it. Class hasn't started yet.
- 10:25>> I'll be back in a minute.
- 10:30>> I should get my pen ready.
- 10:34Oh, no. My pen isn't working.
- 10:37>> Do you have another one?
- 10:38>> No.
- 10:41I'll borrow Lena's pen for just a
- 10:42minute. I'm sure she won't mind.
- 10:44>> Just put it back before she comes.
- 10:47>> Of course.
- 10:50Oh, I'm so sorry, Alex. Oh, no. Please
- 10:54don't be broken.
- 10:55>> Alex, is it okay?
- 10:57>> I don't think so.
- 10:59>> [sighs]
- 11:04>> I'm back. Did I miss anything?
- 11:07Alex, why are you holding my pen?
- 11:10>> Lena, I'm really sorry.
- 11:12>> What happened?
- 11:15>> My pen stopped working.
- 11:17I thought I would borrow yours for just
- 11:19a minute,
- 11:21but it slipped from my hand.
- 11:23>> No.
- 11:24No, this can't be.
- 11:29Alex, do you know what you've done?
- 11:31>> I'm so sorry, Lena.
- 11:33I didn't know this pen was so special.
- 11:36>> This wasn't just a pen.
- 11:38It was the last gift my grandmother gave
- 11:40me.
- 11:44I promised myself I would always protect
- 11:46it.
- 11:47>> I know. And I feel terrible. If I had
- 11:50known, I would never have touched it.
- 11:53>> But you did. You should have asked me
- 11:55first.
- 11:56>> You're right.
- 11:59>> [music]
- 11:59>> I made a mistake.
- 12:01Please forgive me.
- 12:03>> I can't, Alex.
- 12:05Right now, I don't even want to talk to
- 12:07you.
- 12:08>> [music]
- 12:09>> Lena.
- 12:10>> Please, leave me alone.
- 12:13>> I'm truly sorry.
- 12:16>> [sighs and gasps]
- 12:18>> I just need to be alone right now.
- 12:24>> I never wanted to hurt Lena.
- 12:27It was just an accident.
- 12:29If I had asked before using her pen,
- 12:31>> [music]
- 12:32>> none of this would have happened.
- 12:34I apologized,
- 12:36but I don't think she'll ever forgive
- 12:37me.
- 12:39Is our friendship over because of one
- 12:41mistake?
- 12:44>> Lena, you've been very quiet since you
- 12:46came home.
- 12:47>> I can't stop thinking about Grandma's
- 12:49pen.
- 12:51>> I know how much it means to you.
- 12:53>> Every time I looked at it, I remembered
- 12:55Grandma.
- 12:59Now it's broken.
- 13:01>> Tell me honestly,
- 13:02do you think Alex broke it on purpose?
- 13:05>> No.
- 13:07>> Did he laugh after it happened?
- 13:10>> No.
- 13:12>> [sighs and gasps]
- 13:14>> Did he apologize?
- 13:16>> Yes, many times.
- 13:18>> Then what hurt you more, the broken pen
- 13:20or the accident?
- 13:23Your grandmother always taught us to be
- 13:25Be
- 13:25and forgiving.
- 13:28>> [music]
- 13:29>> Do you think she would want you to lose
- 13:30a true friend because of an accident?
- 13:33Alex has always been a good friend. He
- 13:36never wanted to hurt me. Sometimes
- 13:38people make mistakes. A precious gift is
- 13:41valuable, but not as valuable as a
- 13:43friend.
- 13:44But a true friendship is also a precious
- 13:46gift.
- 13:48I think I hurt Alex, too.
- 13:51Then tomorrow, [music]
- 13:52listen to your heart.
- 13:54I hope he can forgive me, too.
- 13:57>> [music]
- 13:59>> Alex.
- 14:01>> Hi, Lena. [music]
- 14:02>> Can I sit here?
- 14:03>> Of course.
- 14:09>> Alex, I've been thinking about
- 14:11yesterday.
- 14:12>> So have I.
- 14:14>> I'm sorry.
- 14:15>> Lena, you don't have to apologize.
- 14:18>> No, I do.
- 14:20I was hurt because the pen meant so much
- 14:22to me.
- 14:24But I forgot that you never meant to
- 14:26break it.
- 14:28>> I understand why you were upset.
- 14:30And I'm truly sorry for using your pen
- 14:32without asking.
- 14:34I have something for you.
- 14:36>> What is it?
- 14:39>> I took your pen to a repair shop.
- 14:42They repaired it as carefully as they
- 14:44could.
- 14:45I know it will never be exactly the
- 14:47same,
- 14:48but I wanted to fix my mistake.
- 14:52>> You repaired it?
- 14:54>> I tried my best.
- 14:57>> Thank you, Alex.
- 15:00>> Can we still be [music] friends?
- 15:02>> Of course.
- 15:07Grandma always taught me that people are
- 15:09more important than things.
- 15:11I think she would want me to forgive
- 15:12you.
- 15:14>> Thank you for giving me another chance.
- 15:18>> Friends?
- 15:19>> Always.
- 15:22>> Finally, I was waiting for you two to
- 15:24become friends again.
- 15:30>> [laughter]
- 15:32[music]
- 15:35>> Please pay attention to this topic.
- 15:38It will be part of your next test.
- 15:46>> [sighs]
- 15:49[gasps]
- 15:50>> Alex.
- 15:52>> Hmm?
- 15:53>> Look at Lily.
- 15:57>> She looks really tired today.
- 15:59>> She doesn't look well.
- 16:04>> [sighs and gasps]
- 16:08>> Lily?
- 16:10>> I'm
- 16:11I'm sorry, sir.
- 16:12>> Were you sleeping in my class?
- 16:15>> I'm really sorry. It won't happen again.
- 16:20>> You usually pay attention in class.
- 16:23Is everything all right?
- 16:25>> Yes, sir.
- 16:26I'm just a little tired today.
- 16:29>> All right.
- 16:30Please wash your face during the break
- 16:32and try to stay focused.
- 16:34>> Yes, sir.
- 16:36This doesn't seem normal.
- 16:38>> I was thinking the same thing.
- 16:41>> I wonder what's going on.
- 16:43>> Now, if you look at this equation on the
- 16:44board, you'll see how the variables
- 16:46interact.
- 16:50>> [snorts]
- 16:52>> I'm starving.
- 16:53This morning's classes felt much longer
- 16:55than usual.
- 16:57>> I was thinking the same thing.
- 17:05Alex.
- 17:06>> Hmm?
- 17:08>> There she is again.
- 17:12>> Is that all she's having for lunch?
- 17:15>> It looks like it.
- 17:21She didn't even buy anything from the
- 17:23cafeteria.
- 17:24>> Not even a cup of tea.
- 17:27Did you notice something?
- 17:29She looked exhausted in class.
- 17:32And now she's only eating bread.
- 17:35>> That is
- 17:36a little unusual.
- 17:38She didn't even finish it.
- 17:40>> Maybe she's saving it for later.
- 17:46>> Lunch break isn't over yet.
- 17:48>> I know.
- 17:50She's leaving early again.
- 17:53Alex,
- 17:54I don't think she's just tired.
- 17:57>> You're thinking something is wrong?
- 18:00>> I don't know.
- 18:02But my heart tells me she's carrying a
- 18:04problem she hasn't shared with anyone.
- 18:08>> Maybe we should find out before we make
- 18:10any assumptions.
- 18:13Are you still thinking about Lily?
- 18:15>> Yes. Something doesn't feel right.
- 18:18>> There she is.
- 18:20>> She looks like she's in a hurry again.
- 18:23Alex,
- 18:25I want to know what's really happening.
- 18:27>> Are you sure?
- 18:29>> I'm not trying to interfere with her
- 18:30life.
- 18:32I'm just worried about her.
- 18:34>> All right. Let's keep a little distance.
- 18:53>> Is this where she lives?
- 18:55>> [music]
- 18:55>> I think so.
- 18:57>> Sis, you're home.
- 18:59How was college today?
- 19:01>> It was good. Mom has been waiting for
- 19:04you.
- 19:08>> Mom, did you take your medicine?
- 19:11>> Yes, dear.
- 19:13I've been waiting for you.
- 19:16Let me make something for you to eat.
- 19:18Now I understand.
- 19:21>> She isn't just taking care of herself.
- 19:24She's taking care of her whole family.
- 19:28>> She's going out again?
- 19:30>> I think she's going to work.
- 19:36So, this is where she works.
- 19:39>> I never imagined she had a job after
- 19:41college.
- 19:42>> Good evening, Lily.
- 19:44>> Good evening, sir.
- 19:45>> We have many customers tonight. It might
- 19:48be a busy shift.
- 19:49>> That's all right. I'll do my best.
- 19:51>> Could I have another glass of water,
- 19:53please?
- 19:54>> Certainly, sir. I'll bring it right
- 19:56away.
- 19:57Here you are.
- 20:07She looks so tired.
- 20:09But she's still smiling.
- 20:11>> She must have been working like this
- 20:13every evening.
- 20:14>> Now I understand why she couldn't stay
- 20:16awake in class.
- 20:18She studies all day.
- 20:21Then she works all evening.
- 20:23>> And after [music] that, she goes home to
- 20:25take care of her mother.
- 20:32>> [music]
- 20:32>> Lena?
- 20:34Alex? What are you both doing here?
- 20:37>> We were waiting for you.
- 20:40>> Waiting for me?
- 20:41>> We wanted to talk to you.
- 20:46>> Did something happen?
- 20:48>> No.
- 20:50>> But we saw you working here.
- 20:53>> I didn't want anyone from college to
- 20:55know.
- 20:56>> Why?
- 20:57>> I was afraid people would look at me
- 20:58differently.
- 21:01>> Lily,
- 21:03there is nothing to be ashamed of.
- 21:06>> Thank you.
- 21:08But my family depends on me.
- 21:11>> Your brother is still studying, isn't
- 21:12he?
- 21:13>> Yes.
- 21:14He's in his first year of college.
- 21:16>> And your mother?
- 21:18>> She's been sick for a long time. She
- 21:21can't work anymore.
- 21:23>> That must be very difficult.
- 21:26>> It is.
- 21:27I attend college during the day.
- 21:29I work here every evening. Then I go
- 21:32home, cook dinner, give my mom her
- 21:34medicine, and help my brother whenever I
- 21:35can.
- 21:36>> You carry so many responsibilities.
- 21:39>> Sometimes I feel tired.
- 21:42But when I see my mom smile, I know it's
- 21:44worth it.
- 21:46>> She has been fighting this battle alone.
- 21:49>> Not anymore.
- 21:51>> What do you mean?
- 21:53>> From tomorrow, Alex and I want to stand
- 21:56beside you.
- 21:57>> We'll study together during lunch
- 21:59breaks.
- 22:02We'll share our notes whenever you miss
- 22:04something.
- 22:05>> And if your mother ever needs anything
- 22:06while you're at work, you can call us.
- 22:09>> Why would you do all this for me?
- 22:12>> Because friends don't just celebrate
- 22:14happy days.
- 22:16They stand together during difficult
- 22:18days, too.
- 22:19>> Thank you.
- 22:21I don't know what to say.
- 22:22>> You don't have to say anything.
- 22:25Just promise us one thing.
- 22:27>> What is it?
- 22:30>> Don't carry every burden by yourself
- 22:31anymore.
- 22:34>> I promise. [music]
- 22:36>> We're here for you.
- 22:42>> Hi Alex. You look happy today.
- 22:44>> Hi Lina. I am. The weather is nice and
- 22:47classes are over for the day.
- 22:48>> That's true.
- 22:50By the way, your birthday is coming up
- 22:52next week, isn't it?
- 22:54>> Yes, it is.
- 22:55>> Do you have any special plans?
- 22:57>> Not really.
- 23:00>> Really? Don't you celebrate your
- 23:02birthday with your family or friends?
- 23:04>> Honestly, my birthdays have always been
- 23:05simple. We usually just wish each other
- 23:07at home.
- 23:09I've never had a birthday party or a
- 23:11surprise celebration.
- 23:12>> Never?
- 23:13>> No. For me, it's just another normal
- 23:16day.
- 23:17>> Doesn't that make you feel a little
- 23:18disappointed?
- 23:20>> Sometimes, but I don't think about it
- 23:22too much. I believe birthdays are more
- 23:25about spending time with people than
- 23:27having a big party.
- 23:28>> That's a nice way to think.
- 23:30>> What about you? Do you enjoy birthdays?
- 23:33>> Yes, I do. I think birthdays are a
- 23:35wonderful chance to make someone smile
- 23:37and create happy memories.
- 23:39>> I like that idea.
- 23:41>> So, what are you going to do on your
- 23:44birthday this year?
- 23:45>> Probably the same as always. I'll go to
- 23:47college, finish my classes, and go home.
- 23:51>> You never know. Sometimes life has a few
- 23:53surprises waiting for us.
- 23:55>> I don't think so, but let's see.
- 23:57>> Well, I hope you have a really special
- 23:59birthday this year.
- 24:01>> Thank you, Lena. That means a lot.
- 24:04>> You're welcome.
- 24:06>> Time for our next class.
- 24:07>> Yes, let's go.
- 24:11>> Hi, Lena. You look like you're thinking
- 24:14about something.
- 24:15>> I am.
- 24:16>> What happened?
- 24:18>> I was talking to Alex a few minutes ago.
- 24:22>> Really? What did he say?
- 24:24>> His birthday is next week.
- 24:26>> That's wonderful. Is he planning a
- 24:28party?
- 24:28>> No. He told me he's never had a birthday
- 24:30celebration.
- 24:32>> Never?
- 24:33>> He said his birthday is usually just
- 24:35another ordinary day.
- 24:38>> That's so surprising.
- 24:41>> I know. When he said that, I felt we
- 24:43should do something special for him.
- 24:45>> I was thinking the same thing.
- 24:47>> What if we plan a surprise birthday
- 24:49celebration?
- 24:51>> I love that idea.
- 24:53>> But we have to keep it a secret.
- 24:55>> Don't worry. I won't tell anyone. First,
- 24:58let's buy a beautiful birthday cake.
- 25:01And we should also get him a meaningful
- 25:03gift. I was thinking about buying him a
- 25:05new pair of shoes. Shoes? Why shoes?
- 25:09I've noticed that his old shoes are
- 25:11quite worn out. He walks to college
- 25:13every day, so I want to give him
- 25:14something useful. That's such a
- 25:16thoughtful gift.
- 25:19I hope he likes it.
- 25:21I'm sure he will. It's clear that you
- 25:23chose it with care.
- 25:25Then tomorrow after college, let's go to
- 25:26the bakery first. Sounds perfect. And
- 25:29after that, we'll visit the shoe store.
- 25:31Perfect. This is going to be a birthday
- 25:34he'll never forget. I can't wait to see
- 25:36the look on his face.
- 25:39Good evening. Welcome. How can I help
- 25:41you today? Good evening. We'd like to
- 25:43order a birthday cake. Certainly. Is it
- 25:45for a child or an adult?
- 25:49It's for our best friend. He's a college
- 25:51student. Wonderful. What kind of cake
- 25:53would you like?
- 25:55We'd like a chocolate cake.
- 25:57That's one of our most popular flavors.
- 25:59What size would you like? A medium-sized
- 26:01cake will be perfect. Great. Would you
- 26:04like to write a message on the cake?
- 26:07Yes, please.
- 26:09What would you like it to say? Happy
- 26:11birthday, Alex. That's a lovely message.
- 26:15Can you decorate it with blue and white
- 26:16icing? Of course. Would you like any
- 26:19candles as well? Yes, please. One pack
- 26:21of candles. Done. When would you like to
- 26:24collect the cake?
- 26:25Tomorrow afternoon.
- 26:27No problem. It will be fresh and ready
- 26:29for you. Thank you. We're planning a
- 26:31surprise birthday celebration.
- 26:34>> [laughter]
- 26:35>> That's wonderful. I'm sure your friend
- 26:37will be very happy. We hope so. He has
- 26:40never had a surprise birthday
- 26:41celebration before.
- 26:43Then this cake will make the day even
- 26:46more special.
- 26:48Thank you for your help. You're welcome.
- 26:50See you tomorrow. See you tomorrow.
- 26:54Good evening. Welcome to our store. How
- 26:56can I help you? Good evening. We're
- 26:58looking for a pair of shoes as a
- 26:59birthday gift for our friend. That's a
- 27:01thoughtful gift. Do you know his shoe
- 27:03size? Yes, we do. He wears size nine.
- 27:07Great. What kind of shoes are you
- 27:09looking for? Casual, sports, or formal?
- 27:11Casual shoes. He wears them to college
- 27:14every day.
- 27:15These shoes are lightweight,
- 27:17comfortable, and very durable. Many
- 27:19college students choose this model.
- 27:21That's exactly what we're looking for.
- 27:24Alex walks a lot, so comfort is
- 27:26important. Then I think this pair is a
- 27:28perfect choice. We'll take them.
- 27:31>> [music]
- 27:32>> Thank you for helping us choose the
- 27:34right pair. You're very welcome. Happy
- 27:36birthday to your friend. Thank you.
- 27:42Hi Alex. Are you free right now?
- 27:44>> Hello Lena. Yes, I just finished my
- 27:46class. Is everything okay?
- 27:49>> Yes, everything is fine. Maya and I are
- 27:51at our favorite cafe.
- 27:52>> Oh, really?
- 27:54>> Yes, we wanted to talk to you about
- 27:56something important.
- 27:58>> Something important? You sound serious.
- 28:01>> Don't worry, it's nothing bad.
- 28:03Alex, just come. We'll explain
- 28:05everything when you get here.
- 28:07>> All right. I'll be there in about 15
- 28:10minutes. Should I bring anything?
- 28:12>> Great. We'll be waiting for you. No,
- 28:14just bring yourself.
- 28:16>> Okay. See you soon.
- 28:19Hi. Sorry, I'm a few minutes late.
- 28:21>> You're right on time. Come and sit with
- 28:23us.
- 28:28>> So, what was the important thing you
- 28:31wanted to tell me?
- 28:32>> Before we say anything,
- 28:34we have something for you.
- 28:38Happy birthday, Alex.
- 28:40>> Wait, what?
- 28:41I don't know what to say.
- 28:44>> Happy birthday. This celebration is just
- 28:46for you.
- 28:48You don't have to say anything right
- 28:49now. Just enjoy the moment.
- 28:51>> I honestly wasn't expecting this.
- 28:54>> That's because it was a surprise.
- 28:56>> [laughter]
- 28:57[gasps]
- 28:58>> You really planned all of this?
- 29:00>> Yes, after our conversation at college,
- 29:03we wanted to make this birthday special.
- 29:05>> No one has ever surprised me like this
- 29:07before.
- 29:08>> Then we're happy to be the first. Come
- 29:10on, make a birthday wish.
- 29:13>> I think my wish has already come true.
- 29:15>> Then it's time to CUT THE CAKE.
- 29:20>> [laughter]
- 29:21>> THANK YOU, BOTH OF YOU. THIS IS A
- 29:23birthday I'll never forget.
- 29:25>> Wait, there's one more surprise.
- 29:28>> A new pair of shoes.
- 29:30>> We noticed your old shoes were worn out.
- 29:32We wanted to give you something useful.
- 29:34>> This is so thoughtful. I truly love
- 29:36them.
- 29:38>> Try them on sometime and tell us how
- 29:40they feel.
- 29:41>> I will.
- 29:42Every time I wear these, I'll remember
- 29:44this day and both of you.
- 29:45>> That's exactly what we hoped.
- 29:48Happy birthday once again, Alex.
- 29:51Have an amazing year ahead.

- 29:56>> [laughter]
