Story Transcript:

Ga: Bhí oifig chorparáideach faoi ghrian shamhraidh an earraigh.
En: The corporate office lay under the summer sun of spring.

Ga: Bhí an áit gnóthach, le ríomhairí ag suanáid agus páipéar ag déileáil faoi lámha fostaí.
En: The place was bustling, with computers humming and paper shuffling under employees' hands.

Ga: Bhí an spás oscailte le fuinneoga móra, ag ligean isteach solas buí na gréine, ag lasadh na bplandaí beaga ar dheasca na n-oibrithe.
En: The open space had large windows, allowing in the yellow sunlight, illuminating the small plants on the workers' desks.

Ga: Tháinig lá eile, cosúil le haon lá eile, ach ní raibh a fhios ag aon duine cé chomh difriúil a bheadh sé.
En: Another day came, like any other day, but no one knew how different it would be.

Ga: Bhí Niamh ina suí ag a deasc.
En: Niamh was sitting at her desk.

Ga: Bhí sí uaillmhianach, bhíodh sí i gcónaí ag iarraidh an jab a dhéanamh go foirfe.
En: She was ambitious, always striving to do the job perfectly.

Ga: Thar a chomharsa, bhí Eamon suaimhneach, ag cruthú atmaisféar éadrom san oifig.
En: Across from her, Eamon was relaxed, creating a light atmosphere in the office.

Ga: Bhí Orla níos faide siar i gcúinne, ag léamh fógraí le foireann a stiúradh go héifeachtach.
En: Orla was further back in the corner, reading notices to direct the team effectively.

Ga: Go tobann, thit Eamon ar an urlár.
En: Suddenly, Eamon fell to the floor.

Ga: Bhí sé tobann, scanrúil.
En: It was abrupt, frightening.

Ga: Rith tonn scaoll tríd an oifig.
En: A wave of panic swept through the office.

Ga: Tháinig daoine le chéile go mear.
En: People gathered quickly.

Ga: Ach bhí eolas níos mó ag teastáil, agus ní raibh na nósanna imeachta oifige cruinn.
En: But more information was needed, and the office procedures were not precise.

Ga: Bhí Niamh ina tost ar feadh nóiméid.
En: Niamh was silent for a moment.

Ga: Anois aici an seans a bhí á lorg aici chun a cumas ceannaireachta a thaispeáint.
En: Now she had the chance she was looking for to show her leadership skills.

Ga: Dhein sí machnamh ar a cuid oiliúna garchabhrach.
En: She reflected on her first aid training.

Ga: Sheas sí suas go deimhin.
En: She stood up confidently.

Ga: “Caithfidh muid cabhrú,” a dúirt sí go daingean.
En: "We need to help," she said firmly.

Ga: “Orla, glaoigh ar na seirbhísí éigeandála le do thoil.
En: "Orla, please call the emergency services."

Ga: ”D'ordaigh sí na comhghleacaithe eile chun spás a dhéanamh timpeall Eamon.
En: She instructed the other colleagues to make space around Eamon.

Ga: Cuireadh tuáillí agus uisce fuar chucu.
En: Towels and cold water were brought to them.

Ga: Choinnigh sí a fear deasghnátha socraithe, ag cur a lámh ar ghualainn Eamon.
En: She kept her ritual calm, placing her hand on Eamon's shoulder.

Ga: Bhí Orla ar an bhfón, a guth socair mar a bhí i gcónaí.
En: Orla was on the phone, her voice calm as ever.

Ga: Thosaigh croí Niamh ag buille níos tapa.
En: Niamh's heart started beating faster.

Ga: Ach mhothaigh sí go raibh sí i gceannas, go raibh sé i gceart.
En: But she felt that she was in control, that it was right.

Ga: Lean an fonn na baill foirne.
En: The staff members followed her lead.

Ga: Bhí Orla
