Story Transcript:
Hr: U ranim satima proljetnog jutra, Ivana je već bila pred štandom svoje majke na tržnici.
En: In the early hours of a spring morning, Ivana was already at her mother's market stall.
Hr: Zrak je bio svjež i pun mirisa cvjetova.
En: The air was fresh and filled with the scent of flowers.
Hr: Ovaj dio dana bio je njezin omiljeni, prije nego li gužva postane prevelika.
En: This part of the day was her favorite, before the crowd became too large.
Hr: Usred mirisa svježe ubranih rajčica i svježe pečenih kolačića, Ivana se osjećala kao kod kuće.
En: Amidst the aroma of freshly picked tomatoes and freshly baked cookies, Ivana felt at home.
Hr: Luka i Ana su ubrzo stigli.
En: Luka and Ana soon arrived.
Hr: Luka je nosio kutiju s biljkama začinskog bilja, a Ana je dolazila s korpom punom veselih zumbula.
En: Luka was carrying a box of herbs, while Ana came with a basket full of cheerful hyacinths.
Hr: Njihova majka imala je dobru reputaciju na tržnici, a Ivana je bila odlučna da je zadrži tako.
En: Their mother had a good reputation at the market, and Ivana was determined to maintain it.
Hr: „Luka, danas se usredotoči na ravnanje povrća.
En: "Luka, focus on arranging the vegetables today.
Hr: Ana, pomogni kupcima i budi dostupna za sva pitanja“, Ivana im dade upute s odlučnošću.
En: Ana, help the customers and be available for any questions," Ivana instructed them with determination.
Hr: Luka je sklonio pogled prema kiosku s hranom u susjedstvu.
En: Luka glanced towards the food kiosk nearby.
Hr: Oduvijek ga je zanimalo kuhanje i često bi se izgubio u sanjarenju o vlastitom restoranu.
En: He had always been interested in cooking and often lost himself in dreams of his own restaurant.
Hr: Ivana, iako zabrinuta, znala je da mora dopustiti Lukine sanjarenja, makar samo na kratko.
En: Ivana, though concerned, knew she had to allow Luka's daydreams, even if only briefly.
Hr: Dok je tržnica oživljavala, ljudi su dolazili u valovima, a boje štandova su blistale pod suncem.
En: As the market came to life, people arrived in waves, and the colors of the stalls gleamed under the sun.
Hr: Ana je bila u svome elementu, osmijeh joj nije silazio s lica dok je pomagala kupcima.
En: Ana was in her element, a smile never leaving her face as she assisted the customers.
Hr: No, nisku oblak je počeo prekrivati sunce, a u zraku se osjećala vlaga.
En: However, a low cloud began to cover the sun, and humidity was in the air.
Hr: Ivana je osjetila zebnju.
En: Ivana felt a sense of foreboding.
Hr: Odjednom, pljusak kiše sručio se na tržnicu.
En: Suddenly, a downpour of rain fell on the market.
Hr: Kupci su počeli trčati u zaklon, a trgovci su paničarili dok su pokušavali spasiti robu.
En: Shoppers started running for cover, and vendors panicked as they tried to save their goods.
Hr: „Luka!
En: "Luka!
Hr: Ana!
En: Ana!"
Hr: “, viknula je Ivana iznad buke, „Moramo zaštititi štand!
En: Ivana shouted above the noise, "We need to protect the stall!"
Hr: “ Luka je brzo pokrio povrće plastičnom ceradom, dok je Ana hvatala cvijeće koje je kiša već počela uništavati.
En: Luka quickly covered the vegetables with a plastic tarp, while Ana grabbed the flowers the rain had already started to ruin.
Hr: Ivana se pridružila u pokušaju spašavanja svega što se moglo spasiti.
En: Ivana joined in their efforts to save whatever could be saved.
Hr: Kako su zajedničkim snagama radili, prolaznici su ih gledali s divljenjem.
En: As they worked together, passersby watched them with admiration.
Hr: Svatko je imao svoju ulogu, a nijedna Ivana nije pokušala sve riješiti sama.
En: Everyone had their role, and Ivana didn't try to solve everything on her own.
Hr: Osjetila je povjerenje i sigurnost u Lukinama sposobnostima i Aninoj entuzijazmi.
En: She felt trust and security in Luka's abilities and Ana's enthusiasm.
Hr: Kad je kiša konačno prestala, štand njihove majke bio je jedan od rijetkih koji je ostao netaknut.
En: When the rain finally stopped, their mother's stall was one of the few that remained unscathed.
Hr: Kupci su polako počeli natrag dolaziti, a Ivana je primijetila kako ih pozdravljaju s poštovanjem.
En: Customers slowly started coming back, and Ivana noticed they were greeted with respect.
Hr: „Zajedno možemo sve“, rekla je Ivana, shvaćajući da njihova snaga leži u zajedništvu.
En: "Together we can do anything," said Ivana, realizing that their strength lay in unity.
Hr: Dok su se smirivali nakon oluje, tržnica je opet bila živa.
En: As they calmed down after the storm, the market was lively once more.
Hr: U tom trenutku, Ivana je spoznala da ne mora sve sama.
En: In that moment, Ivana realized she didn't have to do everything alone.
Hr: S njezinim sestrama i bratom uz nju, sve prepreke činile su se manjima.
En: With her sisters and brother by her side, all obstacles seemed smaller.
Hr: Tako su sa zajedničkim trudom stigli do pobjede, a Ivana je osjetila lakoću koju dugo nije.
En: Thus, with joint effort, they achieved success, and Ivana felt a lightness she hadn't felt in a long time.
Hr: Znala je da je danas naučila nešto važno o obitelji i podršci.
En: She knew she had learned something important about family and support today.
Hr: Dugoročno, taj će trenutak oblikovati putanju njihove male obiteljske priče, baš kao tržnica koja je nastavila živjeti svojim ritmom i u proljeće prelazila u ljeto.
En: In the long run, that moment would shape the path of their small family story, just like the market that continued its rhythm and transitioned from spring into summer.
