Story Transcript:

Sl: Ljubljanski Startup Inkubator je bil živahen tudi v pozni zimi.
En: The Ljubljanski Startup Inkubator was lively even in late winter.

Sl: Steklene stene so ponujale pogled na zgodovinsko arhitekturo mesta.
En: The glass walls offered a view of the city's historic architecture.

Sl: Aktivnost znotraj je bila intenzivna.
En: The activity inside was intense.

Sl: Mladi ljudje so delali pri računalnikih, medtem ko so poredko nameščene lončnice dodajale svežino prostoru.
En: Young people were working at computers, while sparsely placed potted plants added freshness to the space.

Sl: Matevž je stal pred skupino investitorjev.
En: Matevž stood before a group of investors.

Sl: Bil je poln energije, ko je začel svojo predstavitev.
En: He was full of energy as he started his presentation.

Sl: Njegova strast do ekološke tehnologije je bila očitna.
En: His passion for ecological technology was evident.

Sl: Želel je pridobiti sredstva za svojo novo idejo.
En: He wanted to secure funding for his new idea.

Sl: Vendar je v sebi skrival skrbi.
En: However, he hid worries within himself.

En: His health often troubled him.

Sl: Medtem ko je govoril, je postal nenadoma vrtoglaven.

Sl: Njegove besede so se začele mešati.
En: His words began to blur.

Sl: Čutil je, kako svet okoli njega izginja.

Sl: Nato je padel, omedlel na tla.
En: Then he fell, fainting to the floor.

Sl: Lara, njegova partnerka, ki je delala v inkubatorju, je hitro pohitela k njemu.
En: Lara, his partner who worked in the incubator, quickly rushed to him.

Sl: Pomagala mu je vstati.
En: She helped him get up.

Sl: "Si v redu?
En: "Are you okay?"

Sl: " ga je vprašala, ko se je končno spet zavedel.
En: she asked when he finally regained consciousness.

Sl: Matevž je prikimal, ampak tresel se je.
En: Matevž nodded, but he was shaking.

Sl: V mislih je bil še vedno odločen, da dokonča svojo predstavitev.
En: In his mind, he was still determined to finish his presentation.

Sl: Čez nekaj dni je bil dogovorjen nov sestanek z istimi investitorji.
En: A few days later, another meeting with the same investors was arranged.

Sl: Tokrat je Matevž sedel za mizo, nenavadno tiho.

Sl: V bližini je bila Lara.
En: Lara was nearby.

Sl: Spodbujala ga je, naj dela korake previdno.
En: She encouraged him to take cautious steps.

Sl: Ko je sestanek potekal, je Matevž začutil znake omedlevice znova.
En: During the meeting, Matevž felt signs of fainting again.

En: "Your health is the most important."

Sl: "Matevž je obotavljajoč se prikimal.

En: Every breath was difficult.

Sl: "Svet je bilo res da?
En: "The world really was, right?"

Sl: " vprašal je.
En: he asked.
