Story Transcript:
Da: Det var en kold vinteraften i København.
En: It was a cold winter evening in København.
Da: Den snefyldte gade ved siden af kontorbygningen lyste op af gadelygterne, og inde på kontoret sad Mikkel ved sit skrivebord.
En: The snow-covered street next to the office building was lit up by the street lamps, and inside the office, Mikkel sat at his desk.
Da: Han var projektleder og havde et vigtigt projekt, der snart skulle afleveres.
En: He was a project manager working on an important project that was soon to be delivered.
Da: Det var en stor præsentation, og tidsfristen gik på livet løs.
En: It was a large presentation, and the deadline was fast approaching.
Da: Kontoret var fyldt med travlhed.
En: The office was bustling with activity.
Da: Freja, en dygtig grafisk designer, arbejdede intensivt ved computeren.
En: Freja, a talented graphic designer, was working intensely at the computer.
Da: Hun tænkte på de farver og billeder, der skulle få præsentationen til at skinne.
En: She was thinking about the colors and images that would make the presentation shine.
Da: Søren, den erfarne chef, gik rundt mellem skrivebordene og sikrede sig, at alle arbejdede effektivt.
En: Søren, the experienced boss, walked around between the desks ensuring that everyone was working efficiently.
Da: Selvom han var streng, mindede han også ofte teamet om at holde humøret oppe.
En: Even though he was strict, he often reminded the team to keep their spirits up.
Da: Mikkel kiggede hen på Freja.
En: Mikkel glanced over at Freja.
Da: Han havde længe haft et godt øje til hende, men havde aldrig turdet sige noget.
En: He had long had an eye for her but had never dared to say anything.
Da: Det var snart Valentine's Day, og han ønskede mere end noget andet at invitere hende ud.
En: Valentine's Day was approaching, and more than anything, he wanted to ask her out.
Da: Men nu var der tekniske problemer med projektet, og det pressede Mikkel.
En: But now there were technical problems with the project, and it was pressuring Mikkel.
Da: "Mikkel," sagde Søren, der kom hen til hans skrivebord.
En: "Mikkel," said Søren, coming over to his desk.
Da: "Hvordan går det med teknikken?
En: "How's it going with the tech?
Da: Vi har brug for at løse problemet hurtigt."
En: We need to solve the issue quickly."
Da: Mikkel nikkede.
En: Mikkel nodded.
Da: "Jeg skal nok få det ordnet.
En: "I'll get it sorted.
Da: Jeg bliver her så længe, det kræver."
En: I'll stay as long as it takes."
Da: Søren klappede ham på skulderen og gik videre.
En: Søren patted him on the shoulder and moved on.
Da: Mikkel vidste, at hvis han kunne løse problemerne, ville han måske også få mod til at tale med Freja.
En: Mikkel knew that if he could solve the problems, he might also muster the courage to talk to Freja.
Da: Han dykkede dybt ned i løsningen af de tekniske udfordringer.
En: He dove deep into solving the technical challenges.
Da: Timerne gik, og langsomt faldt de omkringværende kollegaer fra, indtil der kun var få tilbage.
En: The hours passed, and gradually the surrounding colleagues left, until there were only a few remaining.
Da: Freja var stadig ved computeren og arbejdede.
En: Freja was still at the computer working.
Da: Endelig, omkring midnat, fik Mikkel teknikken til at køre igen.
En: Finally, around midnight, Mikkel got the tech up and running again.
Da: Han åndede lettet op, og han kiggede op for at se Freja pakke sine ting.
En: He breathed a sigh of relief, and he looked up to see Freja packing her things.
Da: Her var muligheden, tænkte han og gik hen til hende.
En: Here was the opportunity, he thought, and he went over to her.
Da: "Hej Freja," sagde han lidt nervøst.
En: "Hi Freja," he said a little nervously.
Da: "Jeg tænkte, om du måske ville have lyst til en kop kaffe en dag... måske på Valentine's Day?"
En: "I was wondering if you might like to grab a cup of coffee one day... maybe on Valentine's Day?"
Da: Freja så overrasket op.
En: Freja looked up surprised.
Da: "En kop kaffe lyder dejligt, Mikkel.
En: "A cup of coffee sounds lovely, Mikkel.
Da: Det ville jeg gerne."
En: I would like that."
Da: Mikkel smilede, og de gik sammen ud af kontoret, nu lidt mindre stressede og med et nyt håb.
En: Mikkel smiled, and they left the office together, now a little less stressed and with a new hope.
Da: Projektet blev afleveret succesfuldt dagen efter, og Søren var tilfreds.
En: The project was delivered successfully the next day, and Søren was satisfied.
Da: Mikkel følte sig mere selvsikker.
En: Mikkel felt more confident.
Da: Han havde ikke kun overvundet de tekniske udfordringer, men også fundet modet til at ændre sit liv lidt uden for kontoret.
En: He had not only overcome the technical challenges but had also found the courage to change his life a bit outside the office.
Da: Vinteren i København føltes pludselig lidt varmere.
En: Winter in København suddenly felt a little warmer.
