Story Transcript:

He: השמש התחילה לרדת על תל אביב, הזהב של האור הערב האט את קצב החיים ואת הרעש שאמתחת את קו האופק של השוק הפעים והמשתולל של רחוב שוואן. יעל, בחורה צעירה עם שיער שחור וגלי, הולכת וזוהרת באמצע ההמולה. היא הולכת מדוכן לדוכן בעיניים מבריקות של התרסה ורגליים חזקות מאומנות.
En: The sun began to set on Tel Aviv, the golden light of the evening slowed the pace of life and the noise that surged beneath the horizon of the bustling market and the chaotic street of Shwan. Yael, a young girl with black wavy hair, walked and shimmered in the midst of the crowd. She walked from stall to stall with sparkling eyes full of curiosity and strong, skilled legs.

He: היא עצרה לפני דוכן של סמנדר, בעל הפניים השחורות והסריגים הכחלחלים. היא חיפשה משהו מיוחד, משהו שתוכל לקנות במחיר שפוי תוך ריבוי שחמטוני. על השולחן שלו היו נמכרים פריטים שונים, מבין הם קישוטים, ספרים וקלפים ישנים.
En: She stopped in front of a stall owned by Smandar, a man with dark and trembling eyes, and threadbare sweaters. She was looking for something special, something she could buy at a fair price while haggling. On his table, various items were being sold, including decorations, books, and old cards.

He: יום נפלא! אני רוצה לקנות את אותם קלפים, הקלפים הישנים, אמרה יעל לסוחר. מהו המחיר של הקלפים?
En: "What a wonderful day! I want to buy those cards, the old ones," Yael said to the merchant. "What is the price of the cards?"

He: מאה שקלים, אמר הסוחר, הם קלפים ישנים מאוד שנמכרים לעיתים רחוקות במחיר עצום.
En: "One hundred shekels," the merchant said. "They are very old cards that are sold rarely at an enormous price."

He: אני מציעה חמישים שקלים, אמרה יעל בוודאות, רואה בעיניים שלה הבהירות של התמריץ.
En: "I offer fifty shekels," Yael said confidently, clear determination in her eyes.

He: הסוחר התבט, שקל, ואמר, עם או נגד. אמרה יעל, עם.
En: The merchant hesitated, weighed the offer, and said, "Deal or no deal?" Yael said, "Deal."

He: כאשר הלילה הורידה את הפרגה שלה על תל אביב, יעל הלכה הביתה, מרוצה ושמחה עם קלפים חדשים ביד. היא יצאה מנצחת מסגרת המחירון של השוק, ולמדה תוך כדי שהרצון לתמרץ יכול להוביל להצלחה אפשרית. למדה שלעיתים על גבול הפשטות, נפתחים שערי הפשטות של החיים.
En: As the night descended upon Tel Aviv, Yael went home, content and happy with new cards in her hand. She emerged victorious from the realm of the market's price tags and learned that sometimes taking a risk can lead to possible success. She learned that sometimes on the border of simplicity, doors of life's simplicity open.
