Kasper stod midt i den store sal på Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek.

Kasper stood in the middle of the great hall at Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek.

Dæmpet lys spillede over de klassiske skulpturer, og lyden af stille samtaler diffuserede gennem rummet.

Soft lighting played over the classical sculptures, and the sound of quiet conversations diffused through the room.

Det var forår, og museet var fyldt med mennesker, der nød kunsten.

It was spring, and the museum was filled with people enjoying the art.

Kasper, en kunststuderende, gik rundt og beundrede de mange detaljer i en særlig fin romersk statue.

Kasper, an art student, wandered around admiring the many details of a particularly fine Roman statue.

Pludselig tog han et skridt tilbage og ramlede ind i piedestalen, som statuen stod på.

Suddenly, he took a step back and bumped into the pedestal the statue stood on.

Til hans rædsel begyndte statuen at vippe.

To his horror, the statue began to tilt.

Han greb desperat fat i den, men ryggen bølgede under vægten.

He desperately grabbed it, but his back wobbled under the weight.

"Kasper!"

"Kasper!"

råbte Mikkel, hans ven, der stod ikke langt derfra.

shouted Mikkel, his friend, who stood not far away.

"Hvad laver du?"

"What are you doing?"

Kasper hviskede hektisk tilbage, "Mikkel, hjælp mig!

Kasper whispered back frantically, "Mikkel, help me!

Hvis Sofie ser det her, bliver jeg smidt ud!"

If Sofie sees this, I'll be thrown out!"

Sofie, museets omhyggelige guide, var allerede på vej mod dem med faste skridt.

Sofie, the museum's meticulous guide, was already heading toward them with determined steps.

Kasper manglede kun få sekunder til at få statuen tilbage i balance.

Kasper had only a few seconds to get the statue back in balance.

Mikkel tænkte hurtigt.

Mikkel thought quickly.

"Okay, jeg laver en scene," sagde han og smilte.

"Okay, I'll create a distraction," he said, smiling.

Han sprang op på en nærliggende bænk og begyndte at synge en vild sang, som han fandt på.

He jumped onto a nearby bench and began singing a wild song he made up.

Folk vendte sig mod ham, forvirrede, men fascinerede.

People turned to him, confused but intrigued.

Selv Sofie stoppede op et øjeblik.

Even Sofie paused for a moment.

Kasper benyttede lejligheden.

Kasper seized the opportunity.

Han rettede statuen op og tørrede sveden af panden.

He straightened the statue and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Nu stod den perfekt igen, uden et tegn på hans klodsethed.

Now it stood perfectly again, without a sign of his clumsiness.

Da Sofie nåede dem, sendte hun Kasper et blik, der sagde, at hun nok havde opdaget noget.

When Sofie reached them, she gave Kasper a look that suggested she might have noticed something.

Men til Kasper og Mikkels overraskelse gav hun bare et lille smil og fortsatte sin rute.

But to Kasper and Mikkel's surprise, she just gave a small smile and continued on her route.

Senere, uden for museet, åndede Kasper lettet op.

Later, outside the museum, Kasper breathed a sigh of relief.

"Tak, Mikkel," sagde han og klappede sin kammerat på ryggen.

"Thanks, Mikkel," he said, patting his friend on the back.

Mikkel lo.

Mikkel laughed.

"Altid klar til et show," svarede han muntert.

"Always ready for a show," he replied cheerfully.

Og Kasper vidste nu, at han altid kunne tænke hurtigt og bruge sin kreativitet, når han var i knibe.

And Kasper knew now that he could always think quickly and use his creativity when he was in trouble.

Sådan gik det til, at Kasper lærte en vigtig lektie, mens hans venskab med Mikkel blev endnu stærkere.

That's how Kasper learned an important lesson, while his friendship with Mikkel became even stronger.

Mikkel havde måske været lidt vild, men han var altid en ven at stole på.

Mikkel might have been a bit wild, but he was always a friend to rely on.

Og Sofie?

And Sofie?

Tja, hun vidste, hvordan man holdt en hemmelighed.

Well, she knew how to keep a secret.
