Story Transcript:
Sl: Mateja je sedela za svojo mizo in gledala skozi velika okna sodobne pisarne.
En: Mateja was sitting at her desk, looking through the large windows of the modern office.
Sl: Jesen je prinesla mehke rjave in oranžne barve na drevesa, ki so obkrožala mestno središče.
En: Autumn had brought soft brown and orange hues to the trees surrounding the city center.
Sl: Njene misli so bile osredotočene na težaven projekt, ki je moral biti dokončan pred nočjo čarovnic.
En: Her thoughts were focused on a challenging project that had to be completed before Halloween.
Sl: Rok, nov v ekipi in s svežim žarom v očeh, je delal tiho na drugem koncu mize.
En: Rok, new to the team and with a fresh gleam in his eyes, was working quietly at the other end of the table.
Sl: Mateja si ni mogla kaj, da ga ne bi občasno opazovala.
En: Mateja couldn't help but occasionally observe him.
Sl: "Kako napreduje delo?
En: "How is the work progressing?"
Sl: " je vprašal Rok in prekinil tišino.
En: Rok asked, breaking the silence.
Sl: "Dobro, mislim," je odgovorila Mateja in pogledala svoj ekran.
En: "Good, I think," Mateja replied, looking at her screen.
Sl: Bila je zaskrbljena zaradi vsega, kar je morala še narediti.
En: She was worried about everything she still had to accomplish.
Sl: Nina je medtem prišla iz svoje kabine.
En: Nina meanwhile came out of her cubicle.
Sl: "Zdrav, Rok!
En: "Hi, Rok!
Sl: Kako ti je pri nas?
En: How do you like it here?"
Sl: " je rekla z nasmehom.
En: she said with a smile.
Sl: Vedno je bila tista, ki je spodbujala prijateljstvo in podporo med sodelavci.
En: She was always the one encouraging friendship and support among colleagues.
Sl: "Všeč mi je vzdušje," je dejal Rok, medtem ko je vstajal od svoje mize in si privoščil kratek odmor.
En: "I like the atmosphere," Rok said as he got up from his desk to take a short break.
Sl: "Ljudje so prijazni.
En: "The people are friendly."
Sl: ""Pazi na Matejo," je Nina rekla pol v šali, pol za res.
En: "Watch out for Mateja," Nina said, half-jokingly, half-seriously.
Sl: "Trdo dela, a rabi tudi malo zabave.
En: "She works hard but needs a little fun too."
Sl: "Mateja je zardela.
En: Mateja blushed.
Sl: Vedela je, da ima Nina prav.
En: She knew Nina was right.
Sl: Bil je izziv najti ravnovesje med delom in osebnim življenjem.
En: It was a challenge to find a balance between work and personal life.
Sl: Še posebej zdaj, ko je bil projekt vedno bližje zaključku.
En: Especially now, as the project was nearing completion.
Sl: Večeri so postali dolgi, ko sta Mateja in Rok pozno v noč delala skupaj.
En: Evenings grew long as Mateja and Rok worked late into the night together.
Sl: Bližala se je noč čarovnic in pisarna je bila okrašena s pajčevinami in majhnimi bučami.
En: Halloween was approaching, and the office was decorated with cobwebs and small pumpkins.
Sl: Rok je vedno našel način, da je Matejo spravil v smeh, četudi je bila napetost zaradi projekta velika.
En: Rok always found a way to make Mateja laugh, even though the tension from the project was high.
Sl: "Te zanima, kaj rada počnem v prostem času?
En: "Are you interested in what I like to do in my free time?"
Sl: " je rok nekega večera vprašal Matejo med odmorom.
En: Rok asked Mateja one evening during a break.
Sl: Mateja je bila sprva presenečena, vendar je počasi začela govoriti o svojih interesih.
En: Mateja was initially surprised, but she slowly began to talk about her interests.
Sl: "Rada imam knjige.
En: "I like books.
Sl: In obožujem sprehode ob Ljubljanici.
En: And I love walks along the Ljubljanica."
Sl: ""No, potem bi se morda lahko enkrat pridružil," je Rok šaljivo dodal.
En: "Well, maybe I could join you sometime," Rok added jokingly.
Sl: Mateja se je smehljala.
En: Mateja smiled.
Sl: Počutila se je sproščeno in hkrati ranljivo.
En: She felt relaxed and simultaneously vulnerable.
Sl: Končno, na noč čarovnic, ko sta projekt predala tik pred rokom, sta Mateja in Rok uživala pozno večerjo v pisarniški kuhinji.
En: Finally, on Halloween night, when they submitted the project just before the deadline, Mateja and Rok enjoyed a late dinner in the office kitchen.
Sl: Medtem ko sta delila sendviče, okrašene s smešnimi motivi duhov, je Mateja začutila, da je čas, da zaupa Roka o svojih strahovih.
En: As they shared sandwiches decorated with funny ghost motifs, Mateja felt it was time to confide in Rok about her fears.
Sl: "Strah me je, kaj bodo rekli drugi," je priznala.
En: "I'm afraid of what others will say," she admitted.
Sl: "Toda morda je čas, da malo tvegam.
En: "But maybe it's time to take a little risk."
Sl: "Rok se je naslonil nazaj in jo pomirjujoče pogledal.
En: Rok leaned back and looked at her reassuringly.
Sl: "Včasih moramo pustiti, da nas življenje preseneti," je dejal.
En: "Sometimes we have to let life surprise us," he said.
Sl: To noč sta se Mateja in Rok odločila, da raziščeta svoj odnos izven pisarne.
En: That night, Mateja and Rok decided to explore their relationship outside of the office.
Sl: Začela sta z majhnimi koraki, izleti na kavo in pogovori, ki so trajali do zgodnjih jutranjih ur.
En: They started with small steps, going for coffee and having conversations that lasted until the early morning hours.
Sl: Z vsako skupno preživetim trenutkom je Mateja ugotovila, da jo ranljivost lahko pripelje do osebnega in poklicnega izpolnjenja.
En: With every moment spent together, Mateja realized that vulnerability could lead to personal and professional fulfillment.
Sl: Bila je pripravljena sprejeti spremembe in vsak dan jo je Rok s svojim šarmom opomnil, da je ljubezen včasih bližje, kot si mislimo.
En: She was ready to embrace change, and every day, Rok with his charm reminded her that love is sometimes closer than we think.
