Story Transcript:

Hr: S proljećem u zraku i uskrsnim motivima oko njih, Andro i Mira hodali su prema glasačkom mjestu.
En: With spring in the air and Easter motifs around them, Andro and Mira walked towards the polling station.

Hr: Sala za zajednicu, gdje su trebali glasati, bila je ukrašena šarenim uskršnjim ukrasima.
En: The community hall, where they were supposed to vote, was decorated with colorful Easter ornaments.

Hr: Narcisi i tulipani cvjetali su duž staze prema ulazu.
En: Daffodils and tulips were blooming along the path to the entrance.

Hr: Andro je hodao pored Mire, držeći korak s njom.
En: Andro walked alongside Mira, keeping pace with her.

Hr: Iako je Mira hodala s osmijehom, Andro se borio s brigom.
En: Although Mira walked with a smile, Andro struggled with worry.

Hr: Znao je za Mirinu anemiju, bojao se da njezino lice, koje je ponekad bilo previše blijedo, skriva iscrpljenost.
En: He knew about Mira's anemia and feared that her sometimes too-pale face was hiding exhaustion.

Hr: "Jesi li sigurna da se osjećaš dobro?
En: "Are you sure you're feeling okay?"

Hr: " upita Andro, prekidajući tišinu.
En: asked Andro, breaking the silence.

Hr: Mira kimne odlučno.
En: Mira nodded decisively.

Hr: "Dobro sam, Andro.
En: "I'm fine, Andro.

Hr: Važno je glasati.
En: It's important to vote.

Hr: Naš glas može nešto promijeniti.
En: Our vote can make a difference."

Hr: "Andro ju je promatrao, znajući da Mira ne želi priznati svoje slabosti.
En: Andro watched her, knowing that Mira didn't want to admit her weaknesses.

Hr: Poštivao je njezinu želju, ali njegovo srce nije mirno.
En: He respected her wish, but his heart was uneasy.

Hr: Ipak, bili su prijatelji već dugo i Andro je znao koliko je Mira snažna i tvrdoglava.
En: Still, they had been friends for a long time, and Andro knew how strong and stubborn Mira was.

Hr: Dok su stali u red za glasanje, proljeće je veselo sunčalo, a miris cvijeća ispunjavao je zrak.
En: As they stood in line to vote, spring was cheerfully shining, and the scent of flowers filled the air.

Hr: Ljudi oko njih pričali su uzbuđeno o uskrsnim planovima, neki su nosili košare s pisanicama kao darove za obitelj.
En: People around them talked excitedly about Easter plans, some carrying baskets of decorated eggs as gifts for family.

Hr: Atmosfera je bila živahna, ali Andro je primijetio da Mira hvata zakašnjeli dah.
En: The atmosphere was lively, but Andro noticed that Mira was catching her breath belatedly.

Hr: Dođoše na red i Mira se naginje naprijed, osjeti laganu vrtoglavicu.
En: They came up to their turn, and Mira leaned forward, feeling a slight dizziness.

Hr: Andro je odmah primijetio.
En: Andro noticed immediately.

Hr: "Mira, moraš sjesti," rekao je brzo, položivši ruku na njezino rame.
En: "Mira, you need to sit," he said quickly, placing a hand on her shoulder.

Hr: Nevoljko, Mira klimne glavom.
En: Reluctantly, Mira nodded.

Hr: Osjeti se malo posramljeno, ali njezin prijatelj je bio tu, spreman pomoći.
En: She felt a bit embarrassed, but her friend was there, ready to help.

Hr: Približili su se klupi i Mira sjede, naslonivši se umorno.
En: They moved to a bench, and Mira sat down, leaning back wearily.

Hr: "Molim te, ne brini.
En: "Please, don't worry.
