Story Transcript:
No: Det var en solfylt høstdag i Oslo.
En: It was a sunny autumn day in Oslo.
No: Fargene i Botanisk Hage var sterke; rød, gul og oransje blader danset i vinden.
En: The colors in Botanisk Hage were vivid; red, yellow, and orange leaves danced in the wind.
No: En liten kafé lå i hjørnet av hagen.
En: A small café lay in the corner of the garden.
No: Inne var det varmt og hyggelig, lukten av nytraktet kaffe fyllte rommet.
En: Inside, it was warm and cozy, and the scent of freshly brewed coffee filled the room.
No: Eirik satt ved et bord ved vinduet.
En: Eirik sat by a window table.
No: Han så ut på trærne og tenkte.
En: He looked out at the trees and thought.
No: Han hadde hatt en vanskelig tid etter operasjonen.
En: He had had a tough time after the surgery.
No: Selv om smerten var mindre nå, var følelsene fortsatt kaotiske.
En: Even though the pain was less now, his emotions were still chaotic.
No: Han var usikker på hvordan han skulle gå videre.
En: He wasn't sure how to move forward.
No: For første gang på måneder skulle han møte sine gamle venner, Solveig og Karin.
En: For the first time in months, he was going to meet his old friends, Solveig and Karin.
No: Døra til kafeen åpnet seg, og en kald vind sveipet inn.
En: The door of the café opened, and a cold wind swept in.
No: Solveig kom først, smilende og med en kopp te til Eirik.
En: Solveig came first, smiling and with a cup of tea for Eirik.
No: "Hei, Eirik! Hvordan har du det?" sa hun med en mild stemme.
En: "Hi, Eirik! How are you?" she said with a gentle voice.
No: Eirik trakk på skuldrene.
En: Eirik shrugged.
No: "Det går greit," svarte han, men Solveig så på ham med et blikk som sa at hun visste bedre.
En: "I'm doing okay," he replied, but Solveig looked at him with a gaze that said she knew better.
No: Kort tid etter fulgte Karin.
En: Shortly afterward, Karin followed.
No: Hun var full av energi, som vanlig.
En: She was full of energy, as usual.
No: "Hei, folkens! Jeg har savnet dere!" sa hun og satte seg ned med en stor kopp cappuccino.
En: "Hi, folks! I've missed you!" she said and sat down with a large cup of cappuccino.
No: Tross sitt glade ytre, hadde Karin sine egne bekymringer.
En: Despite her cheerful exterior, Karin had her own worries.
No: Men hun holdt dem skjult, og Eirik merket det ikke helt.
En: But she kept them hidden, and Eirik didn't quite notice.
No: De snakket om alt mulig.
En: They talked about all sorts of things.
No: Fra hverdagslivet, til små minner de hadde delt.
En: From daily life to small memories they had shared.
No: Stemningen var god, men under overflaten var det noe mer.
En: The mood was good, but beneath the surface, there was something more.
No: Eirik ville forsikre dem om at han hadde det bra, men tvilen gnagde i ham.

No: Solveig og Karin så på ham med forventning, som om de ventet på at han skulle fortelle alt.
En: Solveig and Karin looked at him with expectation as if they were waiting for him to tell all.
No: Eirik trakk pusten dypt, usikker på hva han skulle si.
En: Eirik took a deep breath, unsure of what to say.
No: "Jeg må innrømme noe," begynte Eirik brått.
