Marek despaired.Sk: Potreboval pomoc a jedinou osobou, na ktorú sa mohol obrátiť, bola Zuzana.En: He needed help, and the only person he could turn to was Zuzana.Sk: „Zuzka, niekto mi ukradol môj nepodarok!“ hlesol s panikou v hlase.En: "Zuzka, someone stole my abomination!" he gasped with panic in his voice.Sk: Zuzana okamžite pochopila vážnosť situácie.En: Zuzana immediately understood the gravity of the situation.Sk: „Poďme najprv zistiť, kto to mohol byť,“ navrhla.En: "Let's first find out who it could have been," she suggested.Sk: Prechádzali kanceláriou, pozorne sledovali každého, kto sa chichotal na svojom mieste.En: They walked through the office, carefully observing everyone who was giggling in their spots.Sk: Jozef, Marekov večný rival, bol v rohu a snažil sa zamaskovať svoj smiech.En: Jozef, Marek's eternal rival, was in the corner trying to mask his laughter.Sk: Marek a Zuzana sa rozhodli konať.En: Marek and Zuzana decided to act.Sk: Bez klopania vtrhli do Jozefovho kútika.En: Without knocking, they burst into Jozef's nook.Sk: „Máš niečo, čo mi patrí?“ opýtal sa Marek pokojne ale dôrazne.En: "Do you have something that belongs to me?" Marek asked calmly but firmly.Sk: Jozef o chvíľu nabral vážnu tvár.En: Jozef soon put on a serious face.Sk: „Je to len vtip,“ priznal sa.En: "It’s just a joke," he confessed.Sk: „Vráť mi sveter, alebo ti príde štrikovať babička,“ vyhrážal sa Marek s úsmevom.En: "Return my sweater, or my grandma will come to knit for you," Marek threatened with a smile.Sk: Po krátkej dobe vyjednávania Jozef konečne sveter vrátil.En: After a short negotiation, Jozef finally returned the sweater.Sk: Ale už nebolo času - súťaž sa mala začať o päť minút.En: But time was running out—the contest was to start in five minutes.Sk: „Zuzka, musíme byť kreatívni,“ povedal Marek, keď vstupovali do kancelárie.En: "Zuzka, we need to be creative," Marek said as they entered the office.Sk: Kancelária bola posiata papiermi, farebnými páskami a starými ozdobami.En: The office was littered with paper, colorful ribbons, and old decorations.Sk: „Vytvoríme nový sveter,“ povedal.En: "We will create a new sweater," he said.Sk: Požičali si zo stola Jozefa nite, z iného stola stužky, zo zásuvky staré vianočné ozdoby.En: They borrowed threads from Jozef's desk, ribbons from another table, and old Christmas ornaments from a drawer.Sk: Zuzana rýchlo začala pitvoriť všetko dohromady, Marek si pripínal ozdoby na obyčajný sveter.En: Zuzana quickly started to mash everything together while Marek pinned ornaments onto the plain sweater.Sk: Keď Marek vošiel do miestnosti, vyzeral ako reklama na vianočný chaos.En: When Marek entered the room, he looked like an advertisement for Christmas chaos.Sk: Sveter sa trblietil umelými snehovými vločkami, kade-tade trčali šnúrky, a ligotavé gule zvonili pri každom kroku.En: The sweater glittered with artificial snowflakes, strings stuck out all over, and shiny ...
