Story Transcript:
Da: Kirsten stod i hospitalets cafeteria med en kop varm kaffe i hånden.
En: Kirsten stood in the hospital's cafeteria with a cup of hot coffee in her hand.
Da: Hendes fødder var ømme efter en lang nattevagt.
En: Her feet were sore after a long night shift.
Da: Hun lyttede til lydene omkring sig - klirren fra bestik, bløde samtaler blandt kolleger.
En: She listened to the sounds around her - the clinking of cutlery, soft conversations among colleagues.
Da: Det undervurderende kaos i cafeteriet mindede hende om, hvor meget hun længtes efter stille øjeblikke med sin familie.
En: The understated chaos in the cafeteria reminded her of how much she longed for quiet moments with her family.
Da: Det var efterår.
En: It was autumn.
Da: Luften føltes skarp udenfor, en påmindelse om den kommende vinter.
En: The air felt sharp outside, a reminder of the coming winter.
Da: Kirsten ønskede sig en ny vinterjakke, en jakke der var varm og stilfuld, ligesom de minder hun ville skabe med sin familie.
En: Kirsten wished for a new winter coat, a coat that was warm and stylish, like the memories she wanted to create with her family.
Da: Men det var svært.
En: But it was tough.
Da: Hospitalet var travlt, og hendes vagter forlod lidt tid til egne behov.
En: The hospital was busy, and her shifts left little time for her own needs.
Da: Hun skammede sig, hver gang tanken om at tage fri dukkede op.
En: She felt ashamed whenever the thought of taking time off came up.
Da: Kollegaerne arbejdede også hårdt.

Da: I dag besluttede Kirsten sig for at gøre noget for sig selv.
En: Today, Kirsten decided to do something for herself.

En: During her short break, she would go to the nearby shopping center and find the perfect coat.
Da: Med en dyb indånding satte hun kaffen fra sig og forlod cafeteriet.
En: With a deep breath, she put her coffee down and left the cafeteria.
Da: Indkøbscentret var en helt anden verden.
En: The shopping center was a whole different world.
Da: Mennesker skyndte sig ind og ud, ivrige efter at finde de bedste tilbud inden vinteren.
En: People hurried in and out, eager to find the best deals before winter.
Da: Kirsten gik målrettet fra butik til butik.
En: Kirsten walked purposefully from store to store.
Da: Tiden fløj.
En: Time flew by.
Da: Hun følte uro men også en smule frihed.
En: She felt uneasy but also a bit of freedom.
Da: Hun fortjente at prioritere sig selv.
En: She deserved to prioritize herself.
Da: Pludselig, i det sidste butik, så hun den.
En: Suddenly, in the last store, she saw it.
Da: En smuk, mørkeblå jakke, som om den ventede på hende.
En: A beautiful, dark blue coat, as if it were waiting for her.
Da: Den var perfekt, varm men elegant.
En: It was perfect, warm yet elegant.
Da: Kirsten kiggede på uret.
En: Kirsten looked at the clock.
Da: Butikken var ved at lukke.
En: The store was about to close.
