Story Transcript:
Sl: Ljubljansko letališče Jože Pučnik je bilo tisti zimski dan polno življenja.
En: Ljubljansko Airport Jože Pučnik was full of life on that winter day.
Sl: Zvok kovčkov, ki so se valili po tleh, in napovedi iz zvočnikov so napolnili zrak.
En: The sound of suitcases rolling on the floor and announcements from the speakers filled the air.
Sl: Zunaj je bila vzletno-pristajalna steza prekrita s slano, gore v daljavi pa so nosile snežne kape, kot bele klobučke.
En: Outside, the runway was covered with frost, and the mountains in the distance wore snowy caps, like white hats.
Sl: Med obiskovalci je bila skupina dijakov, ki so prišli na šolski izlet, da bi spoznali svet letalstva.
En: Among the visitors was a group of students who had come on a school trip to learn about the world of aviation.
Sl: Med njimi je bila Ana, radovedna a rahlo zaskrbljena dijakinja.
En: Among them was Ana, a curious but slightly anxious student.
Sl: Navdušena je bila nad letali in vsemi njihovimi tehničnimi lastnostmi, a hkrati jo je prežemal strah pred letenjem.
En: She was fascinated by airplanes and all of their technical features, but at the same time, she was filled with a fear of flying.
Sl: "Ana!
En: "Ana!
Sl: Poglej tole veliko letalo!
En: Look at this big plane!"
Sl: " je zavpil Matej, ko je pokazal na ogromen Boeing, parkiran na pisti.
En: shouted Matej, as he pointed to a huge Boeing parked on the tarmac.
Sl: Ana je začutila, kako se ji v želodcu pojavi vozel, a vseeno je hotela izvedeti več.
En: Ana felt a knot in her stomach, but still wanted to learn more.
Sl: Tina, sopotnica in prijateljica, je rekla: "Ana, lahko če želiš vstopiš v letalo.
En: Tina, her travel companion and friend, said, "Ana, you can go into the plane if you want.
Sl: Ne bo se premaknilo.
En: It won't move."
Sl: "Ana je oklevala.
En: Ana hesitated.
Sl: Kaj če se kdo smehlja njenim strahu?
En: What if someone smiled at her fear?
Sl: Ampak želja, da bi premagala ta strah, je bila močnejša.
En: But the desire to overcome that fear was stronger.
Sl: "Dobro, bom poskusila," je končno rekla.
En: "Okay, I'll try," she finally said.
Sl: Vodnik jih je vodil do letala.
En: The guide led them to the airplane.
Sl: Srce ji je divje razbijalo.
En: Her heart was pounding wildly.
Sl: Stala je na vhodu v letalo.
En: She stood at the entrance to the plane.
Sl: Nekaj trenutkov je trajalo, preden je zbrala pogum in vstopila.
En: It took her a few moments to gather the courage and step inside.
Sl: Korak za korakom je hodila po hodniku.
En: Step by step, she walked down the aisle.
Sl: Sedeži so bili prazni, letalo tiho in mirno.
En: The seats were empty, the plane quiet and calm.
Sl: Ana je sedla in se počutila presenetljivo mirno.
En: Ana sat down and felt surprisingly calm.
Sl: Bila je kot doma.
En: It felt like home.
Sl: Počasi se je njen strah začel razblinjati.
En: Slowly, her fear began to dissipate.
Sl: Sošolci so jo spodbujali, njihove prijetne besede pa so dodale pogum.
En: Her classmates encouraged her, and their kind words added courage.
Sl: Ko je izstopila iz letala, je Ana zaznala, da je v njej nekaj drugačnega.
En: When she got off the plane, Ana sensed that something was different within her.
Sl: Nič več prestrašena, ampak napolnjena z odločnostjo.
En: No longer afraid, but filled with determination.
Sl: Zamisli o možnih letih in destinacijah so jo zdaj navduševale, ne pa zastraševale.
En: Thoughts of possible flights and destinations now excited her, not frightened her.
Sl: "Tina, Matej, to je bilo super!
En: "Tina, Matej, that was great!"
Sl: " je zaklicala.
En: she exclaimed.
Sl: "Zdaj si predstavljam, da bi nekoč res letela!
En: "Now I can imagine someday really flying!"
Sl: "Za Ane je bil to velik korak.
En: For Ana, this was a big step.
Sl: Strahovi, ki so jo dolgo držali nazaj, so zdaj postali njeni izzivi za premagovanje.
En: The fears that had held her back for so long had now become challenges to overcome.
Sl: Pomislek na letala je prinesel nasmeh, ne skrbi.
En: The thought of airplanes brought a smile, not worry.
Sl: Svet letalstva ji je bil zdaj malo manj tuj in veliko bolj vabljiv.
En: The world of aviation was now a little less foreign and much more inviting to her.
