Story Transcript:

Et: Tallinna lennujaamas sagis rahvamass.
En: The Tallinna lennujaamas buzzed with a crowd.

Et: Sügise jahedus täitis õhku, tuues kaasa lehtede värvilise vaatemängu.
En: The chill of autumn filled the air, bringing with it a colorful spectacle of leaves.

Et: Kert seisatas hetkeks pilvede all.
En: Kert paused for a moment under the clouds.

Et: Ta vaatas üle rahvasumma, otsides tuttavaid nägusid.
En: He looked over the crowd, searching for familiar faces.

Et: Maarja oli lubanud teda vastu võtta.
En: Maarja had promised to meet him.

Et: Kert tuli lennujaama raskete mõtetega.
En: Kert came to the airport with heavy thoughts.

Et: Aastad välismaal olid teda muutnud.
En: Years abroad had changed him.

Et: Vanad tülid Maarja ja Lembituga püsisid alles mälus, nagu tavatu lehevirn tormis.
En: Old arguments with Maarja and Lembit lingered in his memory, like an unusual stack of leaves in a storm.

Et: Kas nad suudavad vanad probleemid seljataha jätta?
En: Could they leave old problems behind?

Et: Kuid igatsus kodu ja pere järele viis ta ikka koju.
En: Yet the longing for home and family pulled him back.

Et: Maarja seisis terminali juures, silmad otsimas vendasid.
En: Maarja stood by the terminal, her eyes searching for her brother.

Et: Ta oli alati tema.
En: She was always there for him.

Et: Naeratus peatas aja.
En: Her smile stopped time.

Et: "Kert!" hõikas Maarja, käed laiali sirutatud.
En: "Kert!" called Maarja, arms outstretched.

Et: Kert astus ettevaatlikult tema poole, tunda andis pisike pelgus.
En: Kert stepped cautiously towards her, feeling a small tinge of apprehension.

Et: "Maarja," sõnas Kert, kallistades õde.
En: "Maarja," said Kert, hugging his sister.

Et: "Ma igatsesin teid kõiki."
En: "I missed you all."

Et: Maarja tundis vennas uut soojust, ja soovis ainult, et päev tuleks rahulik.
En: Maarja sensed a new warmth in her brother, and all she wished for was a peaceful day.

Et: Veidi eemal vedeles Lembit, närviliselt jalga väristades.
En: A little way off, Lembit lingered, nervously shaking his leg.

Et: Ta mängis telefoni, simuleerides ükskõiksust, aga ta pilk jälgis iga vendade liigutust.
En: He played with his phone, simulating indifference, but his gaze followed every movement of the siblings.

Et: Ta ootas ausat hetke, et öelda, kui palju ta igatses neid koos lapsepõlvest saadik.
En: He waited for an honest moment to say how much he had missed them since childhood.

Et: Kui nad lõpuks kõik koos olid, leidis Kert endal julgust rääkida.
En: When they were finally all together, Kert found the courage to speak.

Et: "Meil on palju arutada," alustas ta.
En: "We have much to discuss," he began.

Et: "Ma tegin vigu minevikus. Mul on sellest kahju."
En: "I made mistakes in the past. I'm sorry for that."

Et: Maarja sõnas: "Ka meil oli raske. Aga me oleme siin. Lembit?"
En: Maarja said, "It was hard for us too. But we're here. Lembit?"

Et: Lembit noogutas.
En: Lembit nodded.

Et: "Olin tihti üksinda, kui sa ära olid, Kert. Tundsin, et unustasid meid."
En: "I was often alone when you were gone, Kert. I felt like you forgot us."

Et: Kerti silmad kippusid pisaraisse.
En: Kert's eyes welled up with tears.

Et: "Ma ei tahtnud te
