Vikend je bil v polnem razmahu, Ljubljana City Mall pa je bil poln ljudi.

The weekend was in full swing, and the Ljubljana City Mall was packed with people.

Zrak je bil prežet z vonjem sveže pečenih hlebčkov in kave.

The air was filled with the scent of freshly baked loaves and coffee.

Plakati s popusti so hrupno vabili mimoidoče na zimskih razprodajah.

Posters with discounts loudly called passersby to the winter sales.

Anže je stal pred vhodom.

Anže stood in front of the entrance.

Oškodovano je opazoval množice.

He watched the crowds disheartenedly.

Bil je odločen, da poišče topel plašč.

He was determined to find a warm coat.

Slava se je bližala in njegov star plašč ni bil več dovolj dober.

Glory was approaching, and his old coat was no longer good enough.

"Zdravo, Anže!

"Hello, Anže!"

" je poklicala Maja, ko se mu je približala.

Maja called as she approached him.

Njeni lasje so bili skrbno urejeni, njena oblačila okusna kot vedno.

Her hair was neatly styled, and her clothes were as tasteful as ever.

"Greva skupaj?

"Shall we go together?

Ti lahko pomagam izbrati.

I can help you choose."

""Seveda," je Anže odvrnil in skušal zveneti nenavadno sproščeno.

"Of course," Anže replied, trying to sound unusually relaxed.

Vstopila sta v prvo trgovino.

They entered the first store.

Maja je že kazala na plašč s temnim vzorcem.

Maja was already pointing at a coat with a dark pattern.

"Vidi, ta je topel in moden.

"Look, this one is warm and fashionable."

"Anže je preiskoval etiketo.

Anže examined the label.

Cena ga je odvrnila.

The price deterred him.

"Hmm," je pomislil.

"Hmm," he thought.

"Je lep, ampak mogoče malo predrag.

"It's beautiful, but maybe a bit too expensive."

"Maja se je nasmehnila.

Maja smiled.

"Včasih je moda vredna nekaj več.

"Sometimes fashion is worth a bit more.

Kaj praviš, da oba preveriva še kakšno drugo trgovino?

What do you say we both check out another store?"

"Sprehodila sta se skozi vrsto trgovin.

They walked through a row of stores.

Anže je poizkušal vsakega, ki se mu je zdel primeren, toda Maja je z vsakim predlogom več pozornosti namenila njegovemu okusu.

Anže tried on each one that seemed suitable to him, but with each suggestion, Maja paid more attention to his taste.

"Ne," je rekla, "ta ti res ne pristaja.

"No," she said, "this one really doesn't suit you.

Poskusiva tega tukaj.

Let's try this one here."

"Končno je brez oklevanja vstopila v manjšo trgovinico.

Finally, she entered a smaller boutique without hesitation.

Na eni izložbi je bil plašč v bordo rdeči barvi.

In one display, there was a coat in burgundy red.

"Ta je pravi," je rekla samozavestno in mu pomagala obleči ga.

"This one is the right one," she said confidently and helped him put it on.

Tkanina je bila topla in mehka, kroj natančen.

The fabric was warm and soft, the cut precise.

Anže je opazoval svoj odsev v ogledalu.

Anže observed his reflection in the mirror.

"Lepi," je rekel.

"Beautiful," he said.

V trenutku kaosa ob razprodajah, ko so ljudje hiteli mimo, se je Maja obrnila k Anžetu.

In the chaos of the sales, as people hurried past, Maja turned to Anže.

"Veš, tvoje mnenje mi veliko pomeni," je rekla iskreno.

"You know, your opinion means a lot to me," she said sincerely.

Anže je osupnil.

Anže was astonished.

"Tudi tvoje meni.

"Yours means a lot to me too.

Rad sem tu s tabo.

I enjoy being here with you."

"Ko sta plačala za plašč, sta počasi odkorakala proti izhodu.

After paying for the coat, they slowly walked towards the exit.

Izmenjevala sta si zgodbe in smeh.

They exchanged stories and laughter.

Oba sta vedela, da dneva nista končala le z nakupom obleke.

Both knew they hadn't just ended the day with buying clothes.

Stala sta skupaj pod zimskim nebom, njuni koraki so zveneli lažje.

They stood together under the winter sky, their footsteps sounded lighter.

Našla sta več kot zgolj oblačilo — našla sta lepoto v prijateljstvu, morda v nečem več.

They found more than just a piece of clothing — they found beauty in friendship, perhaps in something more.
