Story Transcript:
Sl: Vsak večer je spokojni mir v naselju za ograjo v Ljubljani prekinila skrivnostna melodija, ki se je začela natanko ob polnoči.
En: Every evening, the tranquil calm of the neighborhood behind the gate in Ljubljana was interrupted by a mysterious melody that began precisely at midnight.
Sl: Bila je prav posebna pomlad, ko so podnevi cveteli tulipani in dehtela drevesa.
En: It was a very special spring, when tulips bloomed by day and trees gave off their sweet fragrance.
Sl: Mateja, ki je živela tukaj in bila znana po svoji radovednosti, je melodijo zaznala prvi.
En: Mateja, who lived there and was known for her curiosity, was the first to notice the melody.
Sl: Bila je ljubiteljica ugank in njen sluh je bil vedno oster.
En: She was a lover of puzzles and always had a keen ear.
Sl: Vedno je hodila okrog z iskrico v očeh.
En: She always walked around with a sparkle in her eyes.
Sl: Njen najbližji sosed, Jure, je bil precej drugačen.
En: Her closest neighbor, Jure, was quite different.
Sl: Ni verjel v skrivnosti ali nadnaravno.
En: He did not believe in mysteries or the supernatural.
Sl: Vedno je iskal logična pojasnila.
En: He always sought logical explanations.
Sl: A globoko v sebi je Jure vendarle čutil rahlo nelagodje ob nepojasnjenih stvareh.
En: Yet, deep inside, Jure still felt a slight unease about unexplained things.
Sl: Še posebej, ko je bila tema.
En: Especially when it was dark.
Sl: Mateja je nekega dne potrkala na njegova vrata.
En: One day, Mateja knocked on his door.
Sl: "Jure, morava raziskati to glasbo," je rekla z navdušenjem.
En: "Jure, we have to investigate this music," she said enthusiastically.
Sl: Jure je podpisal, a se ni želel takoj pridružiti.
En: Jure sighed but was reluctant to join right away.
Sl: "To lahko pojasnimo," je dejal, čeprav ga je mala sapica strahu oplazila.
En: "We can explain this," he said, though a slight breeze of fear brushed by him.
Sl: Matejin duh pa ga je nalezel: veselje do avanture in odkrivanja.
En: Mateja's spirit, however, was contagious: the excitement of adventure and discovery.
Sl: Naslednji večer sta se opremila z lučkami in načrtom.
En: The next evening, they equipped themselves with flashlights and a plan.
Sl: Ogledala sta si načrt varnostnih kamer v naselju.
En: They looked at the layout of the security cameras in the neighborhood.
Sl: "Če greva po tej poti in se skrivava za drevesi, naju ne bodo opazili," je predlagala Mateja.
En: "If we go this way and hide behind the trees, they won't notice us," Mateja suggested.
Sl: Tako sta krenila na pot v temno umeščenost naselja.
En: So they set off into the dark of the neighborhood.
Sl: Pot ju je vodila do stare, opuščene hiše na koncu naselja.
En: Their path led them to an old, abandoned house at the end of the neighborhood.
Sl: "Kako da je nisem prej opazil?
En: "How did I not notice it before?"
Sl: " se je čudil Jure.
En: Jure wondered.
Sl: Bil je skeptičen, a čudoželjnost ga je premagala.
En: He was skeptical, but his curiosity overcame him.
Sl: Z veliko previdnostjo sta odprla vrata in vstopila v prašen, a nenavadno urejen hodnik.
En: With great caution, they opened the door and entered a dusty yet strangely orderly hallway.
Sl: V zgornjem nadstropju sta našla
