Zimsko jutro nad Bledom je prineslo tišino in čarobnost.

A winter morning over Bled brought silence and magic.

Lesketajoče se jezero je bilo ovito v meglo, le obris otoka s cerkvico je komaj opazen v daljavi.

The shimmering lake was wrapped in mist, with just the outline of the island with the church barely visible in the distance.

Bilo je novoletno jutro, kar pomeni čas za družinska srečanja in praznovanje.

It was New Year's morning, which meant a time for family gatherings and celebrations.

Matej, Nina in njihov bratranec Gregor so bili skupaj z družino v počitniški hiši blizu jezera.

Matej, Nina, and their cousin Gregor were together with their family in a holiday house near the lake.

Matej je stal pred oknom in razmišljal.

Matej stood by the window and thought.

Danes mora vse potekati gladko.

Today everything must go smoothly.

Vsi so pričakovali, da bo on poskrbel za organizacijo.

Everyone was expecting him to take care of the organization.

Njegova sestra Nina je že od zgodaj iskala vznemirljivost, raziskovala je vsak kotiček hiše.

His sister Nina was already early on looking for excitement, exploring every corner of the house.

Gregor, njihov zabavni in skrivnostni bratranec, pa je imel svoje načrte.

Gregor, their fun and mysterious cousin, had his own plans.

Ko so se vsi zbrali na zajtrku, je začelo deževati.

When everyone gathered for breakfast, it started to rain.

Nenadoma je opazil, da Gregorja ni nikjer.

Suddenly, Matej noticed that Gregor was nowhere to be found.

"Kje je Gregor?

"Where is Gregor?"

" je vprašal Matej, občutek odgovornosti ga je pritisnil.

asked Matej, feeling the weight of responsibility.

"Ravno kar je bil tukaj," je odgovorila Nina, zvedavo se je ozrla okoli.

"He was just here," replied Nina, glancing around curiously.

Družinska napetost je rastla.

The family tension was growing.

Vse skrbi so bile združene – kje je Gregor?

All worries converged – where is Gregor?

Matej je vedel, da mora nekaj storiti.

Matej knew he had to do something.

"Prav, razdelimo se in poiščimo Gregorja," je rekel.

"Alright, let's split up and look for Gregor," he said.

Po kratki razpravi je Mateju uspelo prepričati družino, naj se razdelijo po skupinah.

After a brief discussion, Matej managed to convince the family to divide into groups.

Nina je izrazila željo, da gre z njim.

Nina expressed her desire to go with him.

Vedela sta, da morata poiskati sledi.

They knew they had to look for clues.

Medtem ko sta raziskovala območje okoli jezera, sta Matej in Nina stopila v globoko sneg.

While they explored the area around the lake, Matej and Nina stepped into deep snow.

Nenadoma je Nina zagledala stopinje, ki so se izgubljale v meglo.

Suddenly, Nina saw footprints fading into the mist.

"Sledi!

"Tracks!"

" je vzkliknila in Matej ji je sledil.

she exclaimed, and Matej followed her.

Pripeljale so do skrite kabine.

They led to a hidden cabin.

Matej je najprej okleval.

Matej hesitated at first.

Ali naj pokličeta za pomoč ali sama raziskujeta?

Should they call for help or investigate on their own?

V tistem trenutku se je spomnil, da mu je Gregor pred časom povedal skrivnost.

At that moment, he remembered Gregor had once told him a secret.

Gregor je delal na projektu za Novo leto.

Gregor was working on a New Year project.

Morda je to še vedno to!

Maybe this is still it!

Po kratkem pogovoru sta se odločila, da vstopita.

After a short conversation, they decided to go in.

Vrata so bila odklenjena.

The door was unlocked.

V notranjosti sta našla Gregorja, kako dela na leseni skulpturi – darilo za družino.

Inside, they found Gregor, working on a wooden sculpture—a gift for the family.

Presenetila sta ga, a vesel nasmeh na njegovem obrazu je pregnal vse skrbi.

They surprised him, but the joyful smile on his face dispelled all worries.

"Mislil sem, da boste razumeli napačno," je rekel Gregor, smejoč se.

"I thought you’d misunderstand," said Gregor, laughing.

Matej se je olajšano zasmejal, objel ga je.

Matej laughed with relief and hugged him.

"Vedeli smo, da moraš biti nekje blizu.

"We knew you had to be somewhere close."

"Ko so se vrnili k družini, so vsi skupaj proslavili.

When they returned to the family, they all celebrated together.

Matej je končno našel zaupanje v svoje sposobnosti.

Matej finally found confidence in his abilities.

Spoznal je, da je vodenje več kot le odgovornost – je tudi zaupanje vase.

He realized that leadership is more than just responsibility—it's also trust in oneself.

Družina se je zbrala v hiši, pokrili so mizo za novoletno večerjo in Rastlina, sreča in veselje so znova našli pot v dom.

The family gathered in the house, set the table for the New Year's dinner, and happiness and joy found their way into the home again.
