Sivi oblaki so prekrivali nebo nad Piranom.

Gray clouds covered the sky over Piran.

Vetrič je hladil ozke ulice, kjer so stare zgradbe v beneškem slogu šumljale ob morju.

A breeze cooled the narrow streets, where old buildings in Venetian style murmured by the sea.

Anja je stala na glavnem trgu in stiskala šal okoli vratu.

Anja stood in the main square, clutching her scarf around her neck.

Pogledala je na uro.

She looked at her watch.

"Kje je Matevž?

"Where is Matevž?"

" se je spraševala.

she wondered.

Matevž je počasi hodil proti njej, razmišljujoč o prihajajočem Prešernovem dnevu.

Matevž was slowly walking toward her, thinking about the upcoming Prešeren Day.

Bil je dan kulture, poln pesniških večerov in prireditev, vendar danes je bil drugačen.

It was a day of culture, full of poetry evenings and events, but today was different.

Anja je predlagala romantičen dan na prostem, a temni oblaki so grozili, da bodo uničili vse načrte.

Anja had suggested a romantic day outdoors, but the dark clouds threatened to ruin all plans.

"Živjo, Anja," je rekel Matevž, ko je prispel.

"Hello, Anja," Matevž said as he arrived.

Opazil je, kako so njene oči sijale, kljub vetrovnemu vremenu.

He noticed how her eyes shone, despite the windy weather.

"Vreme ni naklonjeno," je dodal z zadržanim tonom.

"The weather isn't favorable," he added with a restrained tone.

"Ne skrbim," je odgovorila Anja z nasmehom.

"I'm not worried," Anja replied with a smile.

"Danes bomo raziskovali mestne kotičke!

"Today, we'll explore the city's corners!"

"Medtem ko sta hodila po ulicah Pirana, so valovi udarjali ob obalo in zrak je bil dišeč po soli.

As they walked through the streets of Piran, waves crashed against the shore, and the air was scented with salt.

V hipu je začelo deževati.

Suddenly, it started to rain.

Kaplje so začele udarjati v tla in Anja je odločno rekla, "Hitro, najdeva nekaj zavetja!

The drops began to hit the ground, and Anja decisively said, "Quick, let's find some shelter!"

"Skupaj sta tekla do bližnje kavarne na robu mestnega trga.

Together, they ran to a nearby café on the edge of the town square.

Kavarno je razsvetljevala nežna svetloba sveč.

The café was lit by the gentle light of candles.

"To je čudovito," je rekla Anja, ko sta se posedla za majhno mizo ob oknu.

"This is wonderful," Anja said as they sat at a small table by the window.

Matevž se je počutil sproščeno.

Matevž felt relaxed.

Pogovor je stekel.

The conversation flowed.

Govorila sta o sanjah, hribih, glasbi in celo o Prešernu.

They talked about dreams, hills, music, and even Prešeren.

Medtem ko je dež tolkel po oknih, se je njegovo srce odprlo.

As the rain pounded on the windows, his heart opened up.

Prvič si je dovolil sanjati o nečem več kot le o pragmatizmu.

For the first time, he allowed himself to dream of something more than just pragmatism.

Ko je nevihte popustilo, sta stopila ven.

When the storm subsided, they stepped outside.

Mesto se je svetlikalo pod svetlobo, prepojeno s svežino dežja.

The city glistened under the light, soaked with the freshness of the rain.

Anja se je nasmehnila.

Anja smiled.

"Vidiš, dež ni bil tako slab.

"See, the rain wasn't that bad."

"Matevž je kimal.

Matevž nodded.

"Morda bi lahko pogosteje načrtovala najina srečanja," je priznal.

"Maybe you should plan our meetings more often," he admitted.

Skupaj sta hodila po ulicah, srečna, da sta našla nov delček sebe v deževnem Piranu.

They walked the streets together, happy to have found a new part of themselves in rainy Piran.

Anja je spoznala, da včasih nepričakovano prinaša največ lepote, medtem ko je Matevž končno sprejel čar nepredvidljivega.

Anja realized that sometimes the unexpected brings the most beauty, while Matevž finally embraced the charm of the unpredictable.

Njuna vez se je okrepila.

Their bond strengthened.

In ko je zrak postajal hladnejši, onadva pa sta se vračala v svoje tople domove, sta vedela, da se vračata kot prijatelja, a z dotokom nove, skrivnostne energije, ki bo morda nekoč pomenila še več.

And as the air grew colder and they returned to their warm homes, they knew they were returning as friends, but with an influx of new, mysterious energy that might mean even more someday.
