     Hän kertoi olevansa Terttu. Ei mikään herran Terttu, vaan ihan tavallinen Terttu vaan. Hän laski kätensä reisillemme ja kertoi luottamuksellisesti, että hänen poikaystävänsä haluaisi hänen ottavan silikonit rintoihinsa.

     She told her name was Terttu. Not some herran Terttu, just a normal Terttu. She put her hand on our thighs and told us confidentially that his boyfriend wanted her to get her breasts siliconed.
