Dujma, zvona su zazvonila, odvlačeći njihovu pažnju s osjećaja koji su se borili za izlazak.En: At noon, in Saint Domnius Square, the bells tolled, diverting their attention from emotions struggling to surface.Hr: Bilo je večer kad su sjele na večeru u omiljenom restoranu nedaleko od palače.En: It was evening when they sat down for dinner at a favorite restaurant near the palace.Hr: "Zaplimo prošlost," rekao je Marin veselo, dižući čašu.En: "Let's toast to the past," said Marin cheerfully, raising his glass.Hr: "Samo je sadašnjost važna."En: "Only the present matters."Hr: Uvjeti su se nakratko otpustili, ali Ivana je osjetila težinu onoga što se prije nije reklo.En: The barriers briefly loosened, but Ivana felt the weight of words left unsaid.Hr: Konačno, na molu, dok su satovi označili ponoć, a živopisni vatromet obasjao nebo, Ivana i Luka stajali su ukočeni u promatranju svjetla.En: Finally, on the pier, as the clocks struck midnight and vibrant fireworks lit up the sky, Ivana and Luka stood still, watching the lights.Hr: "Luka," počela je Ivana, "Znam da je bilo trenutaka kad nismo bili bliski."En: "Luka," Ivana began, "I know there were times when we weren't close."Hr: Mirnoća luka okruženog svjetlima brodova bila je gotovo utješna.En: The tranquility of the port surrounded by ship lights was almost comforting.Hr: "Ali, obitelj je sve."En: "But family is everything."Hr: Luka je klimnuo, gledajući je ozbiljno.En: Luka nodded, looking at her seriously.Hr: "Prošlo je puno vremena, ali važno je da smo ovdje sada."En: "A lot of time has passed, but what matters is that we're here now."Hr: Na kraju, udaljenošću koja se osjećala kao ocean, premoštena ljubavlju i razumijevanjem, Ivana je pronašla svoje mjesto.En: In the end, a distance that felt like an ocean was bridged with love and understanding, and Ivana found her place.Hr: I tako, u noći koja je bila svjedok za novi početak, ledeni plamen pucketao je novim obećanjima.En: And so, on a night that witnessed a new beginning, the icy flame crackled with new promises.Hr: Nije svaka priča imala završetak bez žaljenja, ali okretanje prema naprijed, među onima koji su joj najdraži, dalo joj je novi smisao.En: Not every story ended without regrets, but moving forward, among those dearest to her, gave her new ...
