Hr: Sunce je sjalo, igrajući se svojim zrakama kroz lišće drveća.

Hr: "Ali volim vas oboje.
En: "But I love you both."

Hr: Bili su spremni oprostiti jedni drugima.
En: They were ready to forgive each other.

Hr: "Složimo se da nema više šutnje", predložila je Ana, pružajući ruku.
En: "Let's agree that there will be no more silence," Ana suggested, extending her hand.

Hr: "Nema više izgubljenih godina.
En: "No more lost years."

Hr: "Marko i Ivana su se složili s kimanjem.
En: Marko and Ivana nodded in agreement.

Hr: Zajedno su napravili male papirnate brodove.
En: Together, they made small paper boats.

Hr: Na jedan su napisali sve ono što su željeli pustiti iz prošlosti - nesporazumi, ljutnja, tišina.
En: On one, they wrote everything they wanted to let go of from the past - misunderstandings, anger, silence.

Hr: Pustili su brodove u potok i gledali kako ih voda nosi dalje.
En: They set the boats in the stream and watched as the water carried them away.

Hr: Promatrali su kako se papirnati brodovi polako udaljavaju, simbolizirajući njihov novi početak.
