Copenhagen Lufthavn var fyldt med rejsende i vintermåneden december.

Copenhagen Lufthavn was filled with travelers in the winter month of December.

Alle var spændt på at komme hjem til jul.

Everyone was excited to get home for Christmas.

Anders, en stille ingeniør med kærlighed for fotografi, sad på en bænk med sin kuffert ved siden.

Anders, a quiet engineer with a love for photography, sat on a bench with his suitcase beside him.

Han kiggede ud gennem de store vinduer og så snefnuggene danse udenfor.

He looked out through the large windows and saw the snowflakes dancing outside.

Hans kamera lå ved hans side, og han overvejede mulighederne for at tage nogle sjældne fotos af sne.

His camera lay by his side, and he considered the possibilities of taking some rare photos of the snow.

Ved siden, på en anden bænk, sad Sofie.

Next to him, on another bench, sat Sofie.

Hun var netop vendt tilbage fra en rejse og bladrede nu i sin scrapbog fuld af billeder og noter fra sine eventyr rundt omkring i verden.

She had just returned from a trip and was now flipping through her scrapbook full of pictures and notes from her adventures around the world.

Hun mærkede uro i lufthavnen omkring sig; flyene var forsinkede på grund af en kraftig snestorm, og folk begyndte at blive utålmodige.

She felt the restlessness in the airport around her; the planes were delayed due to a heavy snowstorm, and people were beginning to grow impatient.

Anders opdagede kameraet, som Sofie bar.

Anders noticed the camera Sofie was carrying.

Han samlede mod til sig og gik hen til hende. "Er du også interesseret i fotografi?" spurgte han.

He gathered the courage to approach her and asked, "Are you also interested in photography?"

Sofie kiggede op og smilte venligt. "Ja, det er jeg! Jeg tager billeder til mine rejseartikler."

Sofie looked up and smiled kindly. "Yes, I am! I take pictures for my travel articles."

Samtalen flød nemt.

The conversation flowed easily.

Anders fortalte om sin drøm om at tage billeder af nordlyset, noget han aldrig havde haft tid til.

Anders talked about his dream of photographing the northern lights, something he had never had time for.

Sofie delte historier fra hendes seneste rejse, fuld af liv og farver.

Sofie shared stories from her recent trip, full of life and color.

De talte og lo, som om de havde kendt hinanden i lang tid.

They talked and laughed as if they had known each other for a long time.

Tiden gik, og snestormen udenfor virkede mindre skræmmende.

The time passed, and the snowstorm outside felt less daunting.

Ja, stormen havde forstyrret deres planer, men den havde også skabt noget uventet.

Yes, the storm had disrupted their plans, but it had also created something unexpected.

De to fremmede blev venner.

The two strangers became friends.

De satte sig ved et stort vindue og kiggede ud, mens sneen faldt stille.

They sat by a large window and looked out as the snow fell quietly.

Anders tog et billede af scenen og tilbød Sofie en kig gennem hans linse.

Anders took a picture of the scene and offered Sofie a look through his lens.

Sofie smilede og følte sig tiltrukket af hans måde at se verden på.

Sofie smiled, feeling drawn to his way of seeing the world.

Som stormen begyndte at lægge sig, kom flyafgangsmeddelelserne tilbage over højtalerne.

As the storm began to subside, the flight departure announcements returned over the loudspeakers.

Det var tid til at skille veje, men før de gjorde det, udvekslede de kontaktinformationer.

It was time to part ways, but before they did, they exchanged contact information.

"Lad os mødes en dag," sagde Anders, "måske under nordlyset?"

"Let's meet up someday," Anders said, "maybe under the northern lights?"

Sofie nikkede, "Det vil jeg gerne."

Sofie nodded, "I'd like that."

Mens de forlod lufthavnen, følte Anders sig mere åben overfor livet og de muligheder, der ikke var planlagte.

As they left the airport, Anders felt more open to life and the unplanned opportunities.

Sofie tænkte på, hvordan denne korte forbindelse måske var begyndelsen på noget dybere.

Sofie thought about how this brief connection might be the beginning of something deeper.

En enkelt pausedag i lufthavnen i København havde ændret deres perspektiv.

A single day of pause at the airport in København had changed their perspective.

Det var, som om stjernerne havde bragt dem sammen under den snedækkede himmel.

It was as if the stars had brought them together under the snow-covered sky.
