På det fyldte kontor i hjertet af København satte Lars sin kaffekop på skrivebordet.

In the crowded office in the heart of Copenhagen, Lars placed his coffee cup on the desk.

Ved siden af ham var hans chef, Jens, i sin skinnende hvide skjorte.

Next to him was his boss, Jens, in his gleaming white shirt.

Ude af det blå, fumlede Lars' hånd.

Out of nowhere, Lars's hand fumbled.

Han væltede sin kaffe.

He spilled his coffee.

Og den landede på Jens' hvide skjorte.

And it landed on Jens's white shirt.

Jens så ned på sin skjorte.

Jens looked down at his shirt.

Der var en stor, brun plet.

There was a large brown stain.

Jens så vred ud.

Jens looked angry.

Lars blev bange.

Lars became afraid.

Han bøjede sit hoved.

He lowered his head.

"Undskyld", mumlede han.

"Sorry," he mumbled.

Men Jens blev ved med at være vred på ham.

But Jens continued to be mad at him.

Hele dagen.

All day long.

Han råbte af Lars.

He yelled at Lars.

Han gav Lars meget arbejde.

He gave Lars a lot of work.

Lars følte sig dårlig.

Lars felt bad.

Han vidste ikke, hvad han skulle gøre.

He didn't know what to do.

Næste morgen havde Lars en idé.

The next morning, Lars had an idea.

Han gik til en butik.

He went to a store.

Han købte en ny, hvid skjorte.

He bought a new white shirt.

Han tog den med til kontoret.

He brought it to the office.

Han gav den til Jens.

He gave it to Jens.

"Til dig", sagde Lars.

"For you," said Lars.

Jens tog skjorten.

Jens took the shirt.

Han så overrasket ud.

He looked surprised.

Men han smiled også.

But he also smiled.

Han sagde ikke undskyld til Lars.

He didn't apologize to Lars.

Men han råbte ikke længere.

But he didn't yell anymore.

Han gav ikke længere for meget arbejde til Lars.

He didn't give Lars too much work anymore.

Lars blev glad.

Lars became happy.

Han var ikke længere bange for Jens.

He was no longer afraid of Jens.

Og han blev mere forsigtig med sin kaffe.

And he became more careful with his coffee.

Han ville ikke spilde kaffe igen.

He didn't want to spill coffee again.

Han ville ikke gøre Jens vred igen.

He didn't want to make Jens angry again.

På kontoret blev tingene bedre.

Things got better in the office.

Lars arbejdede hårdt.

Lars worked hard.

Han var glad.

He was happy.

Og hans chef, Jens, var glad også.

And his boss, Jens, was happy too.

Alt var godt igen.

Everything was good again.

Og det var slutningen på Lars' historie på kontoret i København.

And that was the end of Lars's story at the office in Copenhagen.
