Annabel and Midge looked alike. They did all that young office workers are asked not to do. They painted their lips and their nails (ногти) ; they darkened their lashes 9ресницы) and lightened their hair. The wore thin, bright, bright, brief tightly waited dresses and fanciful (невообразимый). They looked cheap and charming. Always the girls went to walk on Fifth Avenue on their free afternoons, because it was the ideal place for their favourite game. The game could be played anywhere, but the great shop windows stimulated the two players to their best form. Annabel had invented the game. Basically, it was no more than the ancient sport of what-would-you-do-if-you-had-a-million dollars? But Annabel had invented a new set of rules for it and made it more difficult. Annabel’s version went like this: you must suppose that somebody dies and leaves you a million dollars. But there is a condition. It is started in the will (завещание) that you must spend every nickel of the money on yourself. There was a risk of the game. If , when playing it, you forgot, and listened something for your family, for example, you lost your turn to the other player. Annabel went directly to the heart of the game. “All right,” she said. “So you’ve got this million dollars. So what would be the first thing you would do?”
“Well, the first thing I would do,” Midge said, “I would get a mink coat (норковое пальто).” But said it mechanically. “Yes”, Annabel said, “I think you ought to. The terribly dark kind of mink.” But it was too hot and fur was horrid to the thoughts. They stepped along in silent for a while. Then Midge’s eye was caught by a shop window. Cook, lovely gleaming (сверкающие драгоценности) were there in the elegant darkness. “No,” Midge said “I take it back. I would not get a mink coat the first thing. Know what would I do? I would get a string of pearls (нитка жемчуга)”. Annabel’s eyes turned to follow Midge’s. “Yes,” she said slowly. “I think that’s a kind of good idea. And it would make sense, too. Because you can wear pearls with anything.”
