Jarný vietor jemne pohojdáva vetvičky stromov okolo Bratislavského hradu.

The spring wind gently sways the branches of the trees around Bratislavský hrad.

Na lúke pod hradbami sa rozprestiera útulná deka, na ktorej sa usadili Marek, Zuzana a Juraj.

On the meadow under the castle walls lies a cozy blanket, upon which Marek, Zuzana, and Juraj have settled.

Ich detské spomienky sa vracajú, keď sa smejú a rozprávajú.

Their childhood memories come back as they laugh and talk.

Je Veľká noc, a tak niesli aj tradičné veľkonočné koláče a farebné vajíčka.

It is Easter, and so they have brought traditional Easter cakes and colorful eggs.

Marek, s úsmevom na tvári, otvoril košík plný dobrôt.

Marek, with a smile on his face, opened a basket full of treats.

„Pamätáte si na túru na Devín?

"Do you remember the hike to Devín?"

“ opýtal sa Marek a zasmial sa.

Marek asked, laughing.

„Juraj, ako si sa bál toho starého mosta!

"Juraj, how you were afraid of that old bridge!"

“Juraj sa tiež zasmial.

Juraj laughed too.

„A Zuzana musela byť naša navigátorka, inak by sme sa asi stratili!

"And Zuzana had to be our navigator, otherwise we probably would have gotten lost!"

“Zuzana sa usmiala.

Zuzana smiled.

Bola to jedna z tých chvíľ, kedy všetko vyzeralo byť jednoduché a správne.

It was one of those moments when everything seemed simple and right.

Ale v duchu, každý z nich mal niečo, čoho sa chceli podeliť.

But in their minds, each of them had something they wanted to share.

Marek znova zameral pohľad na svoje priatelia a cítil, ako mu búši srdce.

Marek focused his gaze once more on his friends, and he felt his heart pounding.

Dnes chcel vyjsť s pravdou von, no nevedel, ako začať.

Today, he wanted to come clean, but he didn't know how to start.

„Viete,“ začal opatrne Marek, „dostala sa ku mne jedna pracovná príležitosť.

"You know," Marek began cautiously, "I received a job opportunity.

Ale musel by som sa presťahovať do zahraničia.

But I would have to move abroad."

“Zuzana a Juraj na neho prekvapene pozreli.

Zuzana and Juraj looked at him in surprise.

Ticho zavládlo ako mrak nad hradom.

Silence loomed like a cloud over the castle.

„Chceš odísť preč?

"You want to leave?"

“ spýtal sa Juraj, snažiac sa skryť svoj znepokojený výraz.

Juraj asked, trying to hide his concerned expression.

„Áno,“ priznal Marek, „ale nechcem stratiť naše priateľstvo.

"Yes," admitted Marek, "but I don't want to lose our friendship.

Ste pre mňa ako rodina.

You are like family to me."

“Zuzana si povzdychla a pohlavila ho na rameno.

Zuzana sighed and patted him on the shoulder.

„Pochopíme ťa, Marek.

"We understand you, Marek.

Nechceme, aby si zostal kvôli nám nešťastný.

We don't want you to stay unhappy because of us.

Aj tak budeme v kontakte.

We'll still keep in touch."

“Juraj sa tiež usmial.

Juraj also smiled.

„Samozrejme, Marek.

"Of course, Marek.

Aj keď si ďaleko, vždy budeš náš najlepší kamoš.

Even if you're far away, you'll always be our best buddy.

Možno u teba budeme môcť tráviť dovolenku!

Maybe we can spend our vacation at your place!"

“Marek pocítil úľavu.

Marek felt relief.

Vedel, že má svojich priateľov na svojej strane.

He knew he had his friends on his side.

Zrazu všetko bolo jasnejšie.

Suddenly, everything was clearer.

„A čo vy, ako sa máte?

"And what about you two, how are you doing?"

“ spýtal sa Marek a pozrel sa na Zuzanu a Juraja.

Marek asked, looking at Zuzana and Juraj.

Zuzana sa odhodlala podeliť sa so svojimi myšlienkami.

Zuzana felt ready to share her thoughts.

„Rozmýšľam o zmene práce.

"I'm thinking about changing jobs.

Už dlhšie ma to nenapĺňa.

I haven't felt fulfilled for a while.

Chcem robiť niečo, čo má zmysel.

I want to do something that has meaning."

“Juraj prikývol, jeho oči sa presunuli k nedeľnej oblohe.

Juraj nodded, his eyes shifting to the Sunday sky.

„Mám tiež niečo - rodinná situácia, ale zatiaľ to nechávam tak.

"I've got something too—a family situation, but for now, I'm leaving it as it is.

Ale vďaka vám sa cítim, že to nejako zvládnem.

Thanks to you guys, I feel like I can handle it somehow."

“Deň zapadajúceho slnka nad Bratislavou pripomínal, že aj keď sa niektoré veci menia, priateľstvo pretrvá.

The sunset over Bratislava reminded them that even if some things change, friendship endures.

Rieka Dunaj ticho prúdila pod mestom, ako symbol toho, že čas plynie, no vzácne spomienky zostávajú.

The Dunaj River quietly flowed beneath the city, a symbol that time passes, but precious memories remain.

Trojica priateľov tam sedela o kúsok dlhšie, než stmavlo, zdieľajúc príhody, plány a sny.

The trio of friends sat there a little longer, until it darkened, sharing stories, plans, and dreams.

Každý sa cítil o kúsok odvážnejší.

Each of them felt a little braver.

Láska a podpora, ktorú videli medzi sebou, dodávala silu na nové začiatky.

The love and support they saw between each other gave them strength for new beginnings.

V tento jarno-veľkonočný deň každý z nich našiel nový zmysel.

On this springtime Easter day, each of them found new meaning.

Zuzana a Juraj sa usmievali, Marek bol pripravený na to, čo ho čaká.

Zuzana and Juraj were smiling, Marek was ready for what awaited him.

Boli priateľmi.

They were friends.

Navždy.

Forever.
