Story Transcript:
Da: I skumringen af en efterårsaften traskede Niels gennem de farverige blade, der dækkede fortovet foran hospitalet.
En: In the twilight of an autumn evening, Niels trudged through the colorful leaves that covered the sidewalk in front of the hospital.
Da: Det var næsten Halloween, og hans taske var fyldt med små græskar og slikposer.
En: It was almost Halloween, and his bag was filled with small pumpkins and bags of candy.
Da: Den kolde brise rev i hans jakke, men Niels lod sig ikke distrahere.
En: The cold breeze tugged at his jacket, but Niels wasn't distracted.
Da: Han havde ét mål: at bringe lidt glæde ind i Sofies liv.
En: He had one goal: to bring a little joy into Sofie's life.
Da: Afdelingen, hvor Sofie boede, lå stille hen, når han tog elevatoren op.
En: The ward where Sofie stayed was quiet as he took the elevator up.
Da: Luften i korridoren var tung af medicinens duft, men den lille fællesstue var lyst op af varme orange farver og små græskar, som Anders, den venlige sygeplejerske, allerede havde sat frem.
En: The air in the corridor was heavy with the scent of medicine, but the small common room was lit up with warm orange colors and small pumpkins that Anders, the friendly nurse, had already put out.
Da: "Sofie elsker efteråret," sagde Anders med et smil, da han så Niels træde ind.
En: "Sofie loves autumn," said Anders with a smile when he saw Niels step in.
Da: "Lidt pynt kan gøre en stor forskel."
En: "A little decoration can make a big difference."
Da: I sofahjørnet sad Sofie.
En: In the corner of the sofa sat Sofie.
Da: Hendes øjne var tynget, men de skinnede svagt i lyset fra det lille græskar på bordet foran hende.
En: Her eyes were weary, but they shone faintly in the light from the small pumpkin on the table in front of her.
Da: Niels satte sig roligt ved hendes side og tog hendes hånd.
En: Niels sat down quietly beside her and took her hand.
Da: "Hej Sofie," sagde han blidt.
En: "Hi Sofie," he said gently.
Da: Det var ikke nødvendigt at sige mere i øjeblikket.
En: There was no need to say more at the moment.
Da: Mens de sammen gjorde klar til den lille fejring, kunne Niels mærke Sofie åbne sig lidt efter lidt.
En: As they prepared for the small celebration together, Niels could sense Sofie opening up little by little.
Da: De snakkede om gamle dage, om Halloween-festerne i deres barndom, da de skar græskar og klædte sig ud.
En: They talked about the old days, about the Halloween parties in their childhood when they carved pumpkins and dressed up.
Da: Sofie smilede kortvarigt, og det var et lille tegn på håb.
En: Sofie smiled briefly, and it was a small sign of hope.
Da: Anders dukkede op med varm kakao og satte sig med dem.
En: Anders appeared with hot cocoa and sat with them.
Da: "Nogle gange er det de små ting, der har størst betydning," sagde han, og Niels nikkede forstående.
En: "Sometimes it's the little things that mean the most," he said, and Niels nodded in understanding.
Da: Mens natten faldt på, badede de små lygter fællesstuen i et mildt skær.
En: As the night fell, the small lights bathed the common room in a mild glow.
Da: Sofie talte endelig om sin frygt og ensomhed, og Niels lyttede opmærksomt.
En: Sofie finally spoke about her fears and loneliness, and Niels listened attentively.
Da: Det var som om, noget i hende løsrev sig, og hendes ord flød lettere.
En: It was as if something within her was released, and her words flowed more easily.
Da: "Jeg er bange, men jeg vil prøve," sagde hun med en skrøbelig, men beslutsom stemme.
En: "I'm scared, but I'll try," she said with a fragile yet determined voice.
Da: Niels klemte hendes hånd og sagde, "Du er aldrig alene.
En: Niels squeezed her hand and said, "You are never alone.
Da: Vi klarer det her sammen."
En: We will get through this together."
Da: Denne aften, omfavnet af Halloweens enkle glæder, fandt Sofie en gnist af mod.
En: That evening, embraced by the simple joys of Halloween, Sofie found a spark of courage.
Da: Da Niels forlod afdelingen med Anders ved sin side, følte han, at de endelig havde skabt en vej fremad, en indre styrke i Sofie, der var begyndt at vokse.
En: As Niels left the ward with Anders by his side, he felt that they had finally created a path forward, an inner strength in Sofie that had begun to grow.
Da: Det var en beskeden begyndelse, men alligevel en magtfuld transformation.
En: It was a modest beginning, yet a powerful transformation.
Da: Noget ændrede sig også i Niels.
En: Something changed in Niels as well.
Da: Han indså vigtigheden af at være der for Sofie, samtidig med at han skulle tage sig af sig selv.
En: He realized the importance of being there for Sofie, while also taking care of himself.
Da: Det var en kraftfuld balance, han skulle lære.
En: It was a powerful balance he needed to learn.
Da: Da Niels trådte ud i natten, kærtegnede vinden blidt hans ansigt.
En: As Niels stepped out into the night, the wind gently caressed his face.
Da: Hans hjerte var lettere, fyldt med håbet om, at kærlighed og vedholdenhed kunne lysne selv de mørkeste dage.
En: His heart was lighter, filled with the hope that love and perseverance could brighten even the darkest days.
