Ana se je vrnila v mesto,“ pove Luka.En: "Matej! Ana has returned to town," Luka says.Sl: Matejev srčni utrip se pospeši.En: Matej's heart rate quickens.Sl: Čas je, da ji pove svoje občutke.En: It's time to tell her how he feels.Sl: Ana je medtem med stojnicami.En: Meanwhile, Ana is among the stalls.Sl: Po dolgem letu v tujini je spet tukaj, doma.En: After a long year abroad, she is here again, at home.Sl: Vse je hkrati znano, a tudi novo.En: Everything is familiar yet new.Sl: Njeno srce je polno dvomov.En: Her heart is full of doubts.Sl: Bo ostala ali potovala naprej?En: Will she stay or travel onwards?Sl: Matej in Luka končno uzreta Ano blizu stojnice s pisanimi koraldami.En: Matej and Luka finally spot Ana near a stall with colorful beads.Sl: Ona se obrne in ko ga zagleda, ji zasije nasmeh.En: She turns, and when she sees him, her smile lights up.Sl: Ampak čutiti je, da je med njima tiha napetost.En: Yet, there's a silent tension between them.Sl: Luka jima da prostor, a vseeno stoji blizu – pripravljen biti tam kot opora.En: Luka gives them space, but still stands close by—ready to be there for support.Sl: Matej in Ana se premakneta v tihi kotiček tržnice.En: Matej and Ana move to a quiet corner of the market.Sl: Tam se lahko pogovorita stran od vrveža.En: There, they can talk away from the hustle and bustle.Sl: Pogovor je na začetku hladen, oba ne vesta, kje začeti.En: The conversation starts coldly, both unsure of where to begin.Sl: Potem Matej globoko vdihne.En: Then Matej takes a deep breath.Sl: „Ana, pogrešal sem te. Želim poskusiti znova,“ reče, glas mu drhti od iskrenosti.En: "Ana, I've missed you. I want to try again," he says, his voice trembling with sincerity.Sl: Ana ga pogleda, njen pogled mešanica presenečenja in nežnosti.En: Ana looks at him, her gaze a mix of surprise and tenderness.Sl: „Nisem vedela, kako se počutiš,“ prizna.En: "I didn't know how you felt," she admits.Sl: „Tudi jaz sem razmišljala o naju.“En: "I've been thinking about us too."Sl: Oba se za trenutek izgubita v svojih mislih.En: For a moment, both are lost in their thoughts.Sl: Potem pa Ana stisne njegovo roko.En: Then Ana squeezes his hand.Sl: „Mogoče lahko vzameva stvari počasi,“ reče.En: "Maybe we can take things slow," she says.Sl: „Bi mi pokazal, kako je življenje tukaj zdaj?“En: "Will you show me what life is like here now?"Sl: Njene besede pomirijo Matejeva čustva.En: Her words calm Matej's emotions.Sl: „Z veseljem,“ odgovori z nasmehom, ki je poln upanja.En: "With pleasure," he replies with a smile full of hope.Sl: Luka od daleč ponosno opazuje.En: Luka, from afar, watches proudly.Sl: Vedno je verjel, da bo med njima vse v redu.En: He always believed things would be alright between them.Sl: Jesen v Ljubljani je ostala lepa, polna možnosti.En: Autumn in Ljubljana remained beautiful, full of possibilities.Sl: Matej in Ana skupaj hodita med stojnicami, njun korak lahak, njune besede tihe, toda polne pomena.En: Matej and Ana walk together among the stalls, their steps light, their words soft but full of meaning.Sl: Odločita se, da bosta sledila toku – naj se njuna zgodba odvija tu, v srcu mesta, kjer vse spet diha z novim življenjem.En: They decide to go with the flow—may their story unfold here, in the heart of the city, where everything...
