"Ponekad priroda može dati odgovore."En: "You've chosen the right place to think," Ivan said. "Sometimes nature can provide answers."Hr: Marija kimne, gledajući ga kratko prije nego što je skrenula pogled natrag prema stazi.En: Marija nodded, glancing at him briefly before turning her gaze back to the trail.Hr: Zatim je duboko udahnula i rekla, "Ivan, ponekad nije lako... biti ovdje, ali srce me uvijek vuče natrag."En: Then she took a deep breath and said, "Ivan, sometimes it's not easy... being here, but my heart always pulls me back."Hr: U njenim očima zaiskrila je sumnja, ali i ljubav prema ovom krajoliku.En: In her eyes sparkled doubt, but also a love for this landscape.Hr: "Oni te trebaju," reče Ivan tiho, s blagim sjajem u očima, a zatim zastane, kao da skuplja hrabrost. "I ja..."En: "They need you," Ivan said quietly, with a soft gleam in his eyes, then paused, as if gathering courage. "And so do I..."Hr: Marija ga pogleda, iznenađena njegovom iskrenošću.En: Marija looked at him, surprised by his honesty.Hr: U tom trenutku, Ivanove riječi bile su poput povjetarca koji joj je šaptao misli koje nije mogla izgovoriti.En: In that moment, Ivan's words were like a breeze whispering thoughts she couldn't speak.Hr: "Hvala ti, Ivane," reče naposljetku, "ali moram naći način da pomirim oboje."En: "Thank you, Ivan," she said finally, "but I have to find a way to reconcile both."Hr: Hodali su dalje, tišina između njih bila je ispunjena razumijevanjem.En: They walked on, the silence between them filled with understanding.Hr: Marija je osjećala da je na križanju, gdje njeno srce povlači jedno, a razum drži na drugom putu.En: Marija felt that she was at a crossroads, where her heart pulled in one direction and her reason held onto another path.Hr: Nakon dugog hoda, njih dvoje stajali su na vrhu brda s kojeg se pružao pogled na cijeli park.En: After a long walk, the two stood atop a hill offering a view of the entire park.Hr: Marija duboko uzdahne, "Ostanem li malo dulje, pronaći ću način."En: Marija sighed deeply, "If I stay a little longer, I'll find a way."Hr: Ivan je kimnuo, poštujući Marijinu odluku, i tiho dodao, "Ja ću biti tu kad god ti zatreba pomoć."En: Ivan nodded, respecting Marija's decision, and quietly added, "I'll be here whenever you need help."Hr: Marija se nasmiješi, osjećajući konačno mir u srcu.En: Marija smiled, finally feeling peace in her heart.Hr: Znala je da će roditelji biti tu, priroda je uvijek bila ovdje, a Ivanovo ...
