S2 56. You got a new tenant

- Thank you for giving me this chance, Oona says to Venla and her whole being radiates humble thankfullness. 
– Timing was so right, Venla smiles and touches Oona’s hand. 
– This place is so big, Oona looks around and swallows. – I’m not sure if I can afford it. 
– Don’t worry. You afford it, Venla smirks. – I actually thought you won’t need to pay any rent for first two months. You have lot of things you need to get. 
– Are you real? Oona gasps and tears fills her eyes. 
- Yep, Venla replies and continue packing. – I needed to put the place to rent anyway. Now I have a tenant whom I know won’t trash the place, you aren’t a smoker and I trust you. And the whole situation sucks so I want to help you out.
 – It’s so kind of you, Oona sniffs and tries to suffocate the tears from falling. – Everyone’s so nice to me. 
– Hey, girls back each other? 
– You really didn’t need to. I hardly even spoke to you before, Oona confesses. 
– It’s ok. 
– I actually feel bad about it. I never knew what to say to you? 
– Because I was in wheelchair? 
– Um. I don't know... Yes. I guess I was so concentrated on myself I didn’t even see others too? 
– Those days are gone, Venla sighs. - We are both maid of honors on my sis’s wedding? Maybe we can start a new? We have to meet and plan things together anyway? 
– You are right. Oona smiles back at Venla. 
Ilari comes in to take another set of packages and notices they have a visitor. 
– This is Oona, my sis’s friends, Venla says. – She’s going to move here as soon as we get my stuff packed. 
– Yea? Ilari takes a quick look at her and frowns slightly. 
– You got a new tenant, Oona shrugs. 
– You look familiar, he says. 
- Nice to meet you and thanks for this. I’m Oona. 
– Ilari, he says and shakes her hand. – It’s Venla’s apartment so I have nothing to do with this. 
– You really saved my ass here! Oona says again, but now looks at Venla. 
– You sure we haven’t met? Ilari tries to find the missing piece. He is sure he has seen her somewhere before. 
– No. I don’t think so. 
– Want to come into our housewarming party? Venla invites her and glances Ilari. He nods. 
– It’s far away, but if you want to get out of city for a day or two. 
– It’s a good way to get your thoughts somewhere else. Get some new friends and all that, Venla suggest. - And we could think of wedding stuff too?
– Thanks. I’ll think about it.
- What wedding stuff? Ilari frozes.
- My sister's, silly, Venla laughs
