Story Transcript:

Sl: Ljubljanski grad je bil pokrit s snežno odejo, ki se je svetlikala pod zimsko sončno svetlobo.
En: Ljubljanski grad was covered with a snowy blanket that glittered under the winter sunlight.

Sl: Tadej, Anže in Jasna so se zavezali, da bodo ta mrzli dan preživeli raziskovali grad.
En: Tadej, Anže and Jasna committed to spending this cold day exploring the castle.

Sl: Tadej je imel en skrivni načrt – pokazati najboljši razgled na mesto s stolpa.
En: Tadej had a secret plan—to show the best view of the city from the tower.

Sl: "Pridite," je rekel Tadej z nasmeškom.
En: "Come on," said Tadej with a smile.

Sl: "Videli boste nekaj neverjetnega!
En: "You'll see something incredible!"

Sl: ""Upam, da ne misliš spet na kakšno neumnost," se je zasmejal Anže, ko se je trudil hoditi po spolzkem kamnu.
En: "I hope you're not thinking of some silliness again," laughed Anže, as he struggled to walk on the slippery stone.

Sl: Jasna je tiho sledila, vedno pripravljena pomiriti prijatelje z razumnimi rešitvami, kadar bi bilo potrebno.
En: Jasna quietly followed, always ready to calm her friends with sensible solutions when needed.

Sl: Ko so stopili na vrh stolpa, je bil razgled res osupljiv.
En: When they reached the top of the tower, the view was indeed stunning.

Sl: Ljubljana je ležala daleč spodaj, vsaka streha posuta z bleščečim snegom.
En: Ljubljana lay far below, each roof dusted with sparkling snow.

Sl: Veter je pihal močno in ledeno.
En: The wind was blowing fiercely and frigidly.

Sl: "Mogoče bi morali zapreti vrata, da ne zmrznemo," je predlagala Jasna.
En: "Maybe we should close the door so we don't freeze," suggested Jasna.

Sl: Tadej se je strinjal in zapahnil vrata, da jih veter ne bi odprl.
En: Tadej agreed and bolted the door so the wind wouldn't open it.

Sl: A ko je hotel vrata znova odpreti, se niso premaknila.
En: But when he tried to open the door again, it wouldn't budge.

Sl: Panično jih je skušal odpreti znova in znova.
En: Panicked, he attempted to open it repeatedly.

Sl: "Mislim, da smo zaklenjeni notri," je priznal s težkim vzdihom.
En: "I think we're locked in," he admitted with a heavy sigh.

Sl: "Odlično, Tadej," je Anže rekel sarkastično, a z nasmehom.
En: "Great, Tadej," Anže said sarcastically but with a smile.

Sl: "Kdo potrebuje escape room, če imamo tebe.
En: "Who needs an escape room when we have you."

Sl: ""Ne skrbi, bomo našli rešitev," ga je pomirila Jasna in začela iskati nekaj, kar bi jim pomagalo.
En: "Don't worry, we'll find a solution," Jasna reassured him and started looking for something that could help them.

Sl: Našla je sponko za lase in z njo poskusila odpreti ključavnico.
En: She found a hairpin and tried to pick the lock with it.

Sl: "To ni tako enostavno, kot v filmih," je rekla z zbranim obrazom, medtem ko je delala.
En: "It's not as easy as in the movies," she said with a focused expression while working.

Sl: Minilo je nekaj napetih minut.
En: Several tense minutes passed.

Sl: Sneg je začel gosteje padati, začenjal se je snežni metež.
En: Snow began falling more densely, as a snowstorm started.

Sl: Končno, po več neuspelih poskusih, so zaslišali klik.
En: Finally, after several unsuccessful attempts, they heard a click.

Sl: Vrata so se odprla.
En: The door opened.

Sl: "Bravo, Jasna!
En: "Bravo, Jasna!"

Sl: " je vzkliknil Anže z olajšanjem.
En: exclaimed Anže with relief.

Sl: Smejali so se, ko so se spustili po stopnicah in se vrnili v toplino gradu.
En: They laughed as they descended the stairs and returned to the warmth of the castle.

Sl: Odpravili so se v bližnjo kavarnico in si privoščili vročo čokolado.
En: They headed to a nearby café and treated themselves to hot chocolate.

Sl: "Včasih ne gre vse po načrtu," je rekel Tadej in rahlo zardel.
En: "Sometimes things don't go as planned," said Tadej, blushing slightly.

Sl: "Ampak hvala, da me podpirata.
En: "But thank you for supporting me."

Sl: ""Vse je v redu," ga je spodbujala Jasna.
En: "It's all right," encouraged Jasna.

Sl: "S tabo je vedno zabavno.
En: "It's always fun with you."

Sl: "Sedeli so v kavarni, s smehom in toplim napitkom so pozabili na hladen dan.
En: They sat in the café, with laughter and a warm drink, forgetting about the cold day.

Sl: Snežinke so mehko padale za oknom, medtem ko so vsi trije uživali v spominu na dogodivščino, ki je ne bodo hitro pozabili.
En: Snowflakes gently fell outside the window, as all three enjoyed the memory of an adventure they wouldn't soon forget.
