Story Transcript:
Sl: Tivoli Park je bil živahen in poln poletne energije.
En: Tivoli Park was lively and full of summer energy.
Sl: Sončni žarki so sijali skozi krošnje dreves, plesne note glasbe pa so se mešale z vonjem po pečenih klobasah in sladkorni peni.
En: Sun rays shone through the tree canopies, while the notes of dance music mixed with the aroma of grilled sausages and cotton candy.
Sl: Mateja je stala ob stojnici z ročnimi izdelki, njene roke so nemirno prepletale rob njene poletne obleke.
En: Mateja stood by a stall with handmade crafts, her hands nervously intertwining the hem of her summer dress.
Sl: Globoko je vdihnila in se ozrla okoli, iščoč znan obraz.
En: She took a deep breath and looked around, searching for a familiar face.
Sl: Anja je vztrajala, naj se Mateja sreča z Zoranom.
En: Anja insisted that Mateja meet Zoran.
Sl: "Boš videla, všeč ti bo," je dejala, ko je Mateja izrazila svoje dvome.
En: "You'll see, you'll like him," she said when Mateja expressed her doubts.
Sl: Mateja je bila vedno tista, ki je previdno izbrala osamljene kotičke in tišje kotičke za risanje, stran od množic.
En: Mateja was always the one to cautiously choose secluded spots and quieter corners for drawing, away from the crowds.
Sl: A tokrat je želela poskusiti nekaj novega.
En: But this time, she wanted to try something new.
Sl: In tam je bil Zoran.
En: And there was Zoran.
Sl: S svojim širokim nasmehom in kitaro čez ramo pristopil je k Mateji, oči so mu žarele od energije.
En: With his broad smile and a guitar slung over his shoulder, he approached Mateja, his eyes radiating energy.
Sl: "Mateja? Jaz sem Zoran. Veseli me," je rekel, in ona je sramežljivo pokimala.
En: "Are you Mateja? I'm Zoran. Nice to meet you," he said, and she shyly nodded.
Sl: "Hoj, res je lepo tukaj," je začel Zoran, njegov glas je preglasil okoliški hrup.
En: "Hey, it's really nice here," Zoran began, his voice overpowering the surrounding noise.
Sl: "Ampak, če je preveč ljudi, lahko greva na sprehod po parku."
En: "But if there are too many people, we can go for a walk in the park."
Sl: Mateji se je zdelo, da govori neposredno njenim mislim.
En: It seemed to Mateja that he was speaking directly to her thoughts.
Sl: "Rad bi to," je priznala, njen obraz je rahlo pordečel od sramežljivosti.
En: "I'd like that," she admitted, her face blushing slightly from shyness.
Sl: Zoran se je nasmehnil in skupaj sta odšla po tlakovani poti, stran od množice.
En: Zoran smiled, and together they walked along the cobblestone path, away from the crowd.
Sl: Hladnejši vetrič je pihal skozi drevesa, ko sta se pogovarjala.
En: A cooler breeze blew through the trees as they talked.
Sl: Začela sta z osnovnimi stvarmi, o tem, kako je Mateja prišla v Ljubljano in Zoranovo ljubezen do glasbe.
En: They began with the basics, about how Mateja came to Ljubljana and Zoran's love for music.
Sl: Njuni koraki so postajali vse bolj enakomerni, tako kot njun pogovor.
En: Their steps became increasingly in sync, just like their conversation.
Sl: Ko sta prišla do mirnejšega predela parka, se je Mateja počutila bolj sproščeno.
En: When they reached a quieter part of the park, Mateja felt more relaxed.
Sl: "Ne morem verjeti, da mi je tako težko prilagoditi se," je priznala, malo lažje po dolgem pogovoru.
En: "I
