Story Transcript:

Sl: Vlak je odpeljal, zapustil je postajo Ljubljana, in počasni ritmi železniškega potovanja so se kmalu stopili z nežnim pomladnim vetrom.
En: The train departed, leaving postaja Ljubljana, and the slow rhythms of the train journey soon melded with the gentle spring breeze.

Sl: Matej je sedel ob oknu, pogled uprt v strmino, kjer so se gozdovi raztezali kot zelene preproge.
En: Matej sat by the window, his gaze fixed on the slope where the forests stretched out like green carpets.

Sl: Ob njem je bila Nina, njena navdušenja skozi oči so podžgala njegovo srce.
En: Beside him was Nina, her enthusiasm in her eyes sparked his heart.

Sl: Šolski odmor.
En: School break.

Sl: Brez težkih zvezkov in napetih urnikov.
En: No heavy notebooks and tight schedules.

Sl: Samo onadva in narava.
En: Just the two of them and nature.

Sl: V začetku pomladi so prvi cvetovi prikimali soncu in drevesa so slačila svojo zimsko obleko.
En: At the start of spring, the first flowers bowed to the sun, and the trees shed their winter attire.

Sl: "Matej, ali si že bil na Bledu?" je vprašala Nina, ko so pristopali bližje k cilju.
En: "Matej, have you ever been to Bled?" Nina asked as they approached their destination.

Sl: "Ne tako," je odgovoril Matej. "Danes bo pa nekaj posebnega."
En: "Not like this," Matej replied. "Today will be something special."

Sl: Ko sta prispela, sta si izposodila kolesi in se podala na pot ob jezeru.
En: When they arrived, they rented bicycles and set off on a ride around the lake.

Sl: Matej je načrtoval nekaj posebnega.
En: Matej planned something special.

Sl: Med vožnjo je razmišljal o vseh tistih stvareh, ki jih je želel izreči.
En: As they rode, he thought about all the things he wanted to say.

Sl: Toda besede se mu vedno znova zataknejo v grlu.
En: But the words kept getting stuck in his throat.

Sl: Nina je živahno klepetala o vsem, kar je opazila na poti.
En: Nina chatted lively about everything she noticed along the way.

Sl: Matej je v svoji glavi ponavljal: "Povej, Matej, povej."
En: In his head, Matej kept repeating: "Say it, Matej, say it."

Sl: Nebo se je nenadoma stemnilo in prve kaplje dežja so padle na njuni licih.
En: The sky suddenly darkened, and the first raindrops fell on their cheeks.

Sl: Hitro sta se zatekla v bližnji lokal ob jezeru, kjer jih je prijazna natakarica obsula z brisačami.
En: They quickly took refuge in a nearby café by the lake, where a friendly waitress showered them with towels.

Sl: Notranjost kavarne je bila topla, polna dišečega vonja po kavi in svežih pecivih.
En: The café's interior was warm, filled with the fragrant scent of coffee and fresh pastries.

Sl: Matej ju je naročil dva čaja in se zbral pogum.
En: Matej ordered two teas and gathered his courage.

Sl: Zunaj je deževalo, a v Matejevem srcu je gorela želja.
En: It rained outside, but in Matej's heart, a desire was burning.

Sl: "Nina," je končno začel. "Nekaj ti moram povedati."
En: "Nina," he finally started, "I have to tell you something."

Sl: "Ja?" Nina je dvignila pogled, oči svetle od zanimanja.
En: "Yes?" Nina looked up, her eyes bright with interest.

Sl: Matej je zajel sapo in nadaljeval: "Že dolgo ti želim povedati, da si mi všeč.
En: Matej took a deep breath and continued: "For a long time, I've
