Story Transcript:
Et: Tallinna teletorni vaateplatvormil puhub kerge kevadtuul.
En: A light spring breeze blows on the viewing platform of the Tallinna teletorn.
Et: Päike särab heledalt üle linna ja looduse, mis alles ärkab talveunest.
En: The sun shines brightly over the city and nature, which is just waking from its winter slumber.
Et: Täna on eriline päev Kadri, Mareki ja Liisi jaoks.
En: Today is a special day for Kadri, Marek, and Liis.
Et: See on päev, mil nad on otsustanud vanad tülid seljatada ja pere taas kokku tuua.
En: It is the day they have decided to put old quarrels behind them and bring the family back together.
Et: Kadri on peresuhete hoidmises alati olnud väga hoolikas.
En: Kadri has always been very meticulous in maintaining family relationships.
Et: Ta otsustas, et just see kõrge ja avar koht võiks olla see, mis annab neile uue alguse.
En: She decided that this high and open place might be the one to give them a new beginning.
Et: Kõrged vaated, uued perspektiivid.
En: High views, new perspectives.
Et: Kuid Marek on olnud eemal.
En: But Marek has been distant.
Et: Tema seiklushimu ja soov maailma avastada viisid ta pere juurest kaugemale, eriti pärast vana tüli.
En: His thirst for adventure and desire to explore the world took him farther than family, especially after an old conflict.
Et: Liis, nagu alati, tahtis kõiki rahu sõlmima panna.
En: Liis, as always, wanted to make peace between everyone.
Et: "Näete, milline vaade siit on!"
En: "See the view from here!"
Et: ütles Kadri, püüdes jääd murda.
En: said Kadri, attempting to break the ice.
Et: Ta teadis, et tuleb rääkida, aga kuidas alustada?
En: She knew they needed to talk, but how to start?
Et: "Miks siia?"
En: "Why here?"
Et: pomises Marek, pilk kaugusesse suunatud.
En: murmured Marek, his gaze directed into the distance.
Et: Tema toon oli lõdvestunud, kuid silmis oli midagi kaitsvat.
En: His tone was relaxed, but there was something defensive in his eyes.
Et: "Kevad on uus algus," vastas Kadri rahulikult.
En: "Spring is a new beginning," replied Kadri calmly.
Et: "Ja ma tahan, et ka meie võiksime uuesti alustada."
En: "And I want us to have a new start too."
Et: Liis oli see, kes võttis tema sõnad omaks.
En: Liis was the one who embraced her words.
Et: "Marek, me kõik oleme teinud vigu.
En: "Marek, we’ve all made mistakes.
Et: Aga me oleme ikka üks pere."
En: But we are still one family."
Et: Marek vaikis hetkeks.
En: Marek was silent for a moment.
Et: "Ma ei tea, kas suudame lihtsalt unustada," ütles ta lõpuks.
En: "I don't know if we can just forget," he said finally.
Et: "Ei, mitte unustada," katkestas Kadri.
En: "No, not forget," interrupted Kadri.
Et: "Aga me võiksime rääkida.
En: "But we could talk.
Et: Ausalt."
En: Honestly."
Et: Nii nad tegidki.
En: And so they did.
Et: Algas vaikselt, kuid peagi muutus vestlus valjemaks.
En: It started quietly, but soon the conversation grew louder.
Et: Vanad haavad avanesid, mineviku valud kerisid üles.
En: Old wounds opened, past pains surfaced.
Et: Emotsioonid voogasid üle nende, kuni Marek lõpuks murdis: "Ma tundsin, et ma ei kuulunud."
En: Emotions flowed over them, until Marek finally broke: "I felt like I didn't belong."
Et: Kadri hingas sügavalt.
En: Kadri took a deep breath.
Et: "Ma tean," ütles ta kerge värin hääles.
En: "I know," she said with a slight tremor in her voice.
Et: "Ma olin liiga range mõnikord.
En: "I was too strict sometimes.
Et: Ma vabandan."
En: I'm sorry."
Et: Sealt edasi muutus vestlus pehmemaks.
En: From there, the conversation softened.
Et: Marek ja Liis jagasid oma tõdesid, ausat valu ja muret.
En: Marek and Liis shared their truths, honest pain, and worries.
Et: Mõistmine hiilis tasahilju nende vahele nagu kevadtuul õrnalt puulatvades.
En: Understanding gradually crept between them like the gentle spring breeze in the treetops.
Et: Lõpuks, kui päike hakkas juba loojuma, seisis Kadri oma õdede-vennaste vahel, vaikuses.
En: Finally, as the sun began to set, Kadri stood between her siblings, in silence.
Et: Midagi oli muutunud.
En: Something had changed.
Et: Nende vahelist sidet ei mierdanud enam vaikus ega viha.
En: No longer was their bond marred by silence or anger.
Et: "Äkki teeme järgmisel kuul pikniku?"
En: "Maybe we could have a picnic next month?"
Et: pakkus Liis entusiastlikult.
En: suggested Liis enthusiastically.
Et: Marek naeratas esimest korda kogu päeva jooksul laialt.
En: Marek smiled widely for the first time that day.
Et: "See kõlab hea plaanina," nõustus ta.
En: "That sounds like a good plan," he agreed.
Et: Kadri vaatas neid kaht, silmade nurgas kerget kergendust.
En: Kadri looked at the two of them, with a hint of relief in her eyes.
Et: Nad olid uuesti leidnud üksteise.
En: They had found each other again.
Et: Koos leidsid nad rahu ja kooskõla maailma tipus.
En: Together they found peace and harmony at the top of the world.
Et: Ja just sellest hetkes sai nende pere uus algus.
En: And from this moment, their family found a new beginning.
