Story Transcript:
Da: Havet brølede udenfor den lille kysthytte, mens sneen dækkede sandet i et tyndt lag.
En: The ocean roared outside the small coastal cabin, while the snow covered the sand in a thin layer.
Da: Indenfor var der varmt og hyggeligt.
En: Inside, it was warm and cozy.
Da: I stuen knitrede pejsen og kastede et gyldent lys over de slidte møbler og gamle familiebilleder.
En: In the living room, the fireplace crackled and cast a golden light over the worn furniture and old family photos.
Da: Freja sad tæt ved ilden og kiggede ud ad vinduet.
En: Freja sat close by the fire and looked out the window.
Da: Hun så bølgerne slå mod kysten og tænkte på den tid, hvor familien altid var sammen.
En: She watched the waves crash against the shore and thought of the time when the family was always together.
Da: Lars, den ældste, gik rundt og tjekkede alle vinduerne.
En: Lars, the eldest, walked around checking all the windows.
Da: Han sørgede for, at kulden blev holdt ude.
En: He ensured the cold was kept out.
Da: Mathias, som ikke havde været meget hjemme de sidste år, sad med en bog, men hans tanker var et andet sted.
En: Mathias, who hadn't been home much in recent years, sat with a book, but his thoughts were elsewhere.
Da: Freja tog en dyb indånding.
En: Freja took a deep breath.
Da: Det var nu eller aldrig.
En: It was now or never.
Da: "Skal vi ikke tale lidt om de gamle dage?"
En: "Shouldn't we talk a bit about the old days?"
Da: foreslog Freja og klappede på pladsen ved siden af hende.
En: suggested Freja and patted the spot next to her.
Da: Lars kiggede op, og Mathias lagde bogen fra sig, tøvende.
En: Lars looked up, and Mathias put his book down, hesitantly.
Da: "Det kunne være godt," sagde Lars.
En: "That could be good," said Lars.
Da: "Vi har ikke alle tre været sammen længe."
En: "We haven't all three been together for a while."
Da: Freja smilede.
En: Freja smiled.
Da: "Jeg savner, hvordan vi plejede at hygge i weekenderne på gården."
En: "I miss how we used to have cozy weekends on the farm."
Da: Mathias nikkede langsomt.
En: Mathias nodded slowly.
Da: "Jeg savner også vores eventyr," indrømmede han lavt.
En: "I miss our adventures too," he admitted quietly.
Da: "Men det føles andreledes nu."
En: "But it feels different now."
Da: Der blev stille.
En: There was silence.
Da: Kun lyden af ilden og vindens hyl udenfor brød stilheden.
En: Only the sound of the fire and the howling wind outside broke the stillness.
Da: Freja besluttede sig for at fortsætte.
En: Freja decided to continue.
Da: "Måske er det på tide at tale om det, der skete dengang?
En: "Maybe it's time to talk about what happened back then?
Da: De ting, vi ikke fik sagt."
En: The things we didn't say."
Da: Et pludseligt strømsvigt fik lysene til at slukke.
En: A sudden power outage caused the lights to go out.
Da: Rummet blev oplyst kun af ildens skær.
En: The room was lit only by the fire's glow.
Da: Det var som om mørket tvang dem til at se på hinanden, noget de måske havde undgået for længe.
En: It was as if the darkness forced them to look at each other, something they might have avoided for too long.
Da: "Jeg troede, I glemte mig dengang, I alle rejste væk," sagde Freja og holdt tårerne tilbage.
En: "I thought you forgot me back then, when you all left," said Freja, holding back tears.
Da: "Vi rejste hver især i jagten på vores egne liv," forklarede Lars.
En: "We each left in pursuit of our own lives," explained Lars.
Da: "Men det betød ikke, at vi glemte dig."
En: "But that didn't mean we forgot you."
Da: Mathias sukkede og kiggede på sine søskende.
En: Mathias sighed and looked at his siblings.
Da: "Jeg følte mig også tabt.
En: "I felt lost too.
Da: Jeg vidste ikke, hvordan jeg skulle holde kontakten."
En: I didn't know how to stay in touch."
Da: "Men vi er her nu," sagde Freja, med en styrke hun ikke vidste, hun havde.
En: "But we are here now," said Freja, with a strength she didn't know she had.
Da: "Lad os finde hinanden igen."
En: "Let's find each other again."
Da: De talte i flere timer, delte minder og konfronterede gamle sår.
En: They talked for several hours, sharing memories and confronting old wounds.
Da: Da lyset kom tilbage, havde en ny forståelse oplyst rummet.
En: When the lights came back, a new understanding illuminated the room.
Da: Da sneen svandt om foråret, havde familien fundet en ny forbindelse.
En: As the snow melted in spring, the family had found a new connection.
Da: De besluttede at mødes igen, når solen var varmere.
En: They decided to meet again when the sun was warmer.
Da: Freja mærkede en glæde over, at det havde lykkedes.
En: Freja felt a happiness that it had worked out.
Da: Hun havde taget initiativet, og i processen fandt de tilbage til hinanden.
En: She had taken the initiative, and in the process, they found their way back to each other.
Da: Sommerens løfte om en ny samling på stranden ventede dem, fyldt med håb og ny begyndelse.
En: The promise of summer, with a new gathering by the beach, awaited them, filled with hope and new beginnings.
