En: The port of Marseille was full of life. Et: Suvine päike paistis eredalt ning sadam kihas nii kohalike kui ka turistide sagimisest. En: The summer sun shone brightly, and the harbor bustled with both locals and tourists. Et: Mihkel istus kai ääres ja hingas sügavalt sisse soolase mereõhu aroomi. En: Mihkel sat at the edge of the quay and took a deep breath of the salty sea air. Et: Ta oli siin sõprade julgustusel, tundmatud seiklused ees ootamas. En: He was here at the encouragement of friends, with unknown adventures awaiting him. Et: Mihkel armastas spontaansust ja uusi kogemusi, kuid täna oli ta veidi liiga hooletu. En: Mihkel loved spontaneity and new experiences, but today he was a bit too careless. Et: Kertu ja Maarja, tema lojaalsed kaaslased selles Prantsuse linnas, seisid tema kõrval. En: Kertu and Maarja, his loyal companions in this French city, stood by his side. Et: Kertu, ettevaatlik ja alati valmis hoolitsema, pakkus taaskord päikesekaitsekreemi. En: Kertu, cautious and always ready to care, offered sunscreen once more. Et: "Mihkel, sa peaksid endale rohkem kreemi panema," ütles Kertu murelikult, viidates tema kolletunud nahale. En: "Mihkel, you should put on more cream," said Kertu worriedly, referring to his yellowing skin. Et: Maarja naeris rõõmsalt: "Las ta olla, küll ta varsti aru saab." En: Maarja laughed cheerfully: "Let him be, he'll realize it soon enough." Et: Pärastlõunal, kui päike hakkas madalamale laskuma, muutus Mihkli nahk järjest punasemaks ja valulikumaks. En: In the afternoon, as the sun began to descend, Mihkel's skin became increasingly redder and more painful. Et: Ta naeratas võimaliku ebameeldivuse trotsiks, kuid sosistas Kertule: "Ehk peaks ma tõesti rohkem tähelepanu pöörama sinu sõnadele." En: He smiled in defiance of the possible discomfort but whispered to Kertu, "Maybe I should really pay more attention to your words." Et: Kui nad jõudsid tagasi hotelli, muutus Mihkli valu talumatuks. En: When they returned to the hotel, Mihkel's pain became unbearable. Et: Arutatud plaanid jalutada läbi vanalinna ja nautida Marseille kuumaöid tuli edasi lükata. En: The planned walk through the old town and enjoying the hot nights of Marseille had to be postponed. Et: "Ma arvan, et peaksin arsti juurde minema," tunnistas Mihkel, mis oli tema jaoks raske aktsepteerida. En: "I think I should go to the doctor," admitted Mihkel, which was difficult for him to accept. Et: Kohalikus kliinikus vaatas arst teda tõsise pilguga. En: At the local clinic, the doctor looked at him seriously. Et: "Sul on tugev päikesepõletus. En: "You have a severe sunburn. Et: See vajab korralikku hooldust," ütles arst. En: It requires proper care," said the doctor. Et: Mihkel ohkas ja nõustus arstiga, olles mõistnud oma hooletuse tagajärgi. En: Mihkel sighed and agreed with the doctor, having realized the consequences of his carelessness. Et: Maarja ja Kertu olid tema kõrval, toetades ja innustades teda puhkama ning taastuma. En: Maarja and Kertu were by his side, supporting and encouraging him to rest and recover. Et: Järgmine päev möödus akende taga veiklevaid laineid vaadates. En: The next day passed by watching the shimmering waves outside the windows. Et: Sõbrad käisid avastamas ning saatsid Mihklile fotosid ja lugusid sadamast. En: The friends went exploring and sent Mihkel photos and stories from the harbor. Et: Mihkel tundis küll kadedust, kuid mõistis, et tervis on esmatähtis. En: Mihkel felt somewhat envious, but understood that health is the most important. Et: Kertu seadis enda kõrvale laua raamatute ja jääkompressidega. En: Kertu set up a table next to him with books and ice packs. Et: Nädalavahetuse lõppedes oli Mihkli nahk kergem ja meel rahulikum. En: By the end of the weekend, Mihkel's skin was lighter and his mind calmer. Et: Ta naeris sarkastiliselt enda üle, olles oma sõprade toetusele tänulik. En: He laughed sardonically at himself, being grateful for his friends' support. Et: "Ma luban, et see oli viimane kord, kui ma hooletu olen," ütles Mihkel Kertule, kes noogutas rahulolevalt. En: "I promise this was the last time I'll be careless," said Mihkel to Kertu, who nodded contentedly. Et: Kui Mihkel lõpuks piisavalt hästi tundis, veetsid nad kõik päeva rannas, aeglaselt käies ja rahulikus tempos suveilma nautides. En: When Mihkel finally felt well enough, they all spent the day at the beach, walking slowly and enjoying the summer weather at a relaxed pace. Et: Päike paistis jätkuvalt, kuid seekord kandsid nad kõik kaitsvaid mütse ja päikesekreem oli alati käepärast. En: The sun continued to shine, but this time they all wore protective hats, and sunscreen was always within reach. Et: Marseille'i suvi oli veel täis rõõmu ja seiklusi, k
