Story Transcript:
Sl: Matej in Nika sta hodila po poti, ki je vodila do znamenitega Predjamskega gradu.
En: Matej and Nika were walking along the path leading to the famous Predjamski grad (Predjama Castle).
Sl: V dolini so se prebudile prve spomladanske cvetlice.
En: In the valley, the first spring flowers had awakened.
Sl: Narava se je počasi zbujala iz zimskega spanca.
En: Nature was slowly waking up from its winter sleep.
Sl: Hladen veter je pihal z vrha gore, a sončni žarki so že segrevali prebudljiva tla.
En: A cold wind was blowing from the mountain peak, but the sun's rays were already warming the awakening ground.
Sl: Pred njima se je dvigal grad, vklesan v skalo, kot stražar iz preteklosti, ki je varoval skrivnosti stoletij.
En: Before them rose the castle, carved into the rock like a sentinel from the past, guarding secrets of the centuries.
Sl: Matej je bil vesel.
En: Matej was happy.
Sl: Ljubil je zgodovino in želja, da bi razkril vse skrivnosti starega gradu, ga je gnala naprej.
En: He loved history, and the desire to uncover all the secrets of the old castle drove him forward.
Sl: Toda ni bil popolnoma prepričan o svojem zdravju.
En: But he wasn't entirely sure about his health.
Sl: Zaskrbelo ga je, ko je začutil bolečino v prsih, vendar ni želel skrbeti Niko.
En: He grew concerned when he felt a pain in his chest, but he didn't want to worry Nika.
Sl: Nika je vedela, da Matej rad pretirava.
En: Nika knew that Matej tended to exaggerate.
Sl: Njena naloga je bila, da ga ustavi, preden bi šel predaleč.
En: Her task was to stop him before he went too far.
Sl: Matej je zamahnil z roko.
En: Matej waved his hand.
Sl: "Vse je v redu," je rekel, ko je opazila njegov skrbi poln obraz.
En: "Everything's fine," he said when she noticed the concern on his face.
Sl: Nika ga je previdno opazovala.
En: Nika watched him cautiously.
Sl: Bila je njegovo ravnotežje, njegova sidra.
En: She was his balance, his anchor.
Sl: A Matej je imel načrt: želi preučiti vsako sobo v gradu.
En: But Matej had a plan: he wanted to explore every room in the castle.
Sl: Navdušen je želel stopiti v temne hodnike, da bi se potopil v zgodbe preteklosti.
En: Excited, he wished to step into the dark corridors and immerse himself in the stories of the past.
Sl: Ko sta prišla do vznožja gradu, je Matej težko dihal.
En: When they reached the foot of the castle, Matej was breathing heavily.
Sl: Nika se je ustavila.
En: Nika stopped.
Sl: "Mogoče bi moral počivati, Matej," je rekla nežno.
En: "Maybe you should rest, Matej," she said gently.
Sl: Vendar je Matej le še bolj vneto nadaljeval.
En: However, Matej only became more eager to continue.
Sl: "Samo še malo, Nika.
En: "Just a little more, Nika.
Sl: Zgodovina me čaka," je rekel z nasmeškom.
En: History awaits me," he said with a smile.
Sl: Ko sta vstopila v hladne, kamnite hodnike, ki so razkrivali mistiko stare arhitekture, je Mateja premagala njegova želja.
En: As they entered the cold, stone corridors revealing the mystery of ancient architecture, Matej was overcome by his desire.
Sl: Hodila sta skozi ozke prehode, vendar je Matej sčasoma zadaj.
En: They walked through narrow passages, but eventually, Matej lagged behind.
Sl: Nika se je obrnila, ko ga je slišala zakašljati.
En: Nika turned when she heard him cough.
Sl: Bil je bled.
En: He was pale.
Sl: "Izvoli, sedi tukaj," je rekla hitro.
En: "Here, sit down," she said quickly.
Sl: Matej je omahnil na staro klop.
En: Matej sank onto an old bench.
Sl: Njegova energija je usihala.
En: His energy was dwindling.
Sl: Tla pod njim so se začela premikati.
En: The ground beneath him began to shift.
Sl: Svet okoli njega je postal zamegljen.
En: The world around him became blurred.
Sl: Nenadoma se je Matej sesedel na kamenih tleh.
En: Suddenly, Matej collapsed on the stone floor.
Sl: Nika je pokleknila poleg njega.
En: Nika knelt beside him.
Sl: Njen srce je divje bilo, toda njena skrb za Mateja je bila močnejša.
En: Her heart was racing, but her concern for Matej was stronger.
Sl: "Pridi, pojdiva ven," ga je skorajda molela.
En: "Come, let's go outside," she almost pleaded.
Sl: S težavo ga je izvlekla na svež zrak.
En: With difficulty, she got him out into the fresh air.
Sl: Hladen veter mu je osvežil obraz.
En: The cold wind refreshed his face.
Sl: Matej je končno popustil.
En: Matej finally conceded.
Sl: "Strinjam se, Nika.
En: "I agree, Nika.
Sl: Rabim pomoč," je končno priznal z grenkobo zaradi izgubljenega dneva.
En: I need help," he finally admitted with bitterness over the lost day.
Sl: Pomagala mu je nazaj k avtu, kjer sta prvič po dolgem času resno govorila o zdravju.
En: She helped him back to the car, where they seriously talked about health for the first time in a long time.
Sl: Tam, pod veličastjem Predjamskega gradu, je Matej spoznal nekaj novega.
En: There, under the majesty of Predjamski grad (Predjama Castle), Matej realized something new.
Sl: Njegova ljubezen do zgodovine in dogodivščin bo vedno del njega, vendar je zdaj vedel, da mora poslušati svoje telo.
En: His love for history and adventure would always be a part of him, but now he knew he needed to listen to his body.
Sl: Z Nikinim objemom in trdno odločenostjo v srcu je Matej ugotovil, da ni nič narobe, če si vzame čas za počitek.
En: With Nika's embrace and a firm determination in his heart, Matej realized that there's nothing wrong with taking time to rest.
Sl: V prihodnje bo svoje raziskovanje uravnotežil z zdravjem.
En: In the future, he would balance his explorations with his health.
Sl: In tako je Predjamski grad postal ne le spomin na zgodovino, ampak tudi na naučeno lekcijo.
En: And so, Predjamski grad became not just a memory of history, but also of a lesson learned.
