Jeseň v Bratislave priniesla chladný vietor, ktorý unášal lístky po dlažbe.

Autumn in Bratislava brought a chilly wind that carried leaves across the pavement.

Marek kráčal rýchlym krokom k hlavnej stanici, hlava plná myšlienok na blížiace sa Dušičky.

Marek walked quickly toward the main station, his head full of thoughts about the upcoming Dušičky (All Souls' Day).

Tento rok chcel byť pri hrobe starej mamy, zapáliť sviečku a pripomenúť si všetky staré príbehy, ktoré mu rozprávala.

This year, he wanted to be at his grandmother's grave, light a candle, and remember all the old stories she had told him.

Hlavná stanica bola plná ruchu.

The main station was bustling.

Cestujúci sa ponáhľali, hlásenia zneli z reproduktorov a všade vládol chaos.

Travelers were hurrying, announcements sounded from the speakers, and chaos ruled everywhere.

Marek spomalil, aby našiel správny nástupište.

Marek slowed down to find the right platform.

Jeho vlak mal odísť za chvíľu.

His train was about to leave in a moment.

V tej chvíli mu zazvonil mobil.

At that moment, his mobile rang.

Na displeji svietilo meno Lucia.

The name Lucia lit up on the display.

Rýchlo zdvihol.

He quickly answered.

„Ahoj, Marek, potrebujem pomoc,“ znel jej zmätený hlas cez telefón.

"Hi, Marek, I need help," her confused voice sounded through the phone.

Marek cítil, ako jeho srdce zaklopalo rýchlejšie.

Marek felt his heart beat faster.

Lucia bola jeho blízka priateľka.

Lucia was his close friend.

Vždy stála pri ňom, keď to najviac potreboval.

She was always there for him when he needed it most.

„Čo sa stalo?“ opýtal sa znepokojene.

"What happened?" he asked worriedly.

„Je to osobné… asi by som potrebovala sa stretnúť a porozprávať,“ pokračovala Lucia.

"It's personal... I think I need to meet and talk," Lucia continued.

Jej hlas bol plný emócií, ktoré nešiel prehliadnuť.

Her voice was full of emotions that couldn't be overlooked.

Pozrel sa na hodinky.

He looked at his watch.

Nemal veľa času.

He didn't have much time.

Marek vedel, čo znamenajú Dušičky pre jeho rodinu, ale zároveň mu na Lucii veľmi záležalo.

Marek knew what Dušičky meant to his family, but at the same time, he cared deeply for Lucia.

Bojoval s vnútorným hlasom.

He wrestled with his inner voice.

Po krátkom čase si uvedomil, že niekedy sú vzťahy dôležitejšie než vlastné plány.

After a short time, he realized that sometimes relationships are more important than one's own plans.

Rýchlo prešiel stanicou až na vonkajšiu plošinu, kde stála Lucia.

He quickly moved through the station to the outer platform where Lucia stood.

Vyzerala stratená a vystrašená.

She looked lost and frightened.

Prišiel k nej a objal ju bez slova.

He came to her and embraced her without a word.

Marek zistil, že byť pri niekom v ťažkých chvíľach je cennejšie než ktorákovek cesta.

Marek realized that being there for someone in difficult times is more valuable than any journey.

Vlak sa začal pomaly pohybovať, ale Marek už vedel, že urobil správne rozhodnutie.

The train began to move slowly, but Marek already knew he had made the right decision.

Niekedy láska a podpora priateľa môžu byť ten najlepší dar, ktorý môžeme dať.

Sometimes, the love and support of a friend can be the best gift we can give.

A tak tam stáli.

And so they stood there.

Lucia mu vyrozprávala všetko, čo ju trápilo, a on ju počúval.

Lucia told him everything that troubled her, and he listened.

Po prvýkrát Marek pocítil, že na svete existuje viac foriem pripomínania si lásky.

For the first time, Marek felt that there are more forms of remembering love in the world.

Dnes nebol pri hrobe starej mamy, ale bol tam, kde bol potrebný najviac.

Today, he wasn't at his grandmother's grave, but he was where he was needed the most.

A od toho dňa vedel, že priateľstvo je rovnako hodnotné ako rodinné tradície.

And from that day, he knew that friendship is just as valuable as family traditions.
