Da: Freja trak vejret dybt, da hun trådte ind i det lille sterilt værelse på psykiatrisk afdeling.
En: Freja took a deep breath as she stepped into the small, sterile room in the psychiatric ward.

Da: Rummet var simpelt.
En: The room was simple.

Da: En seng, et par stole, og et lille bord ved vinduet, der kiggede ud over hospitalets gård.
En: A bed, a couple of chairs, and a small table by the window, which overlooked the hospital courtyard.

Da: Hun kunne høre fjerne latter fra børn, der legede udenfor.
En: She could hear distant laughter from children playing outside.

Da: Det var sommer, og solen skinnede varmt udenfor, men inde i rummet føltes det koldt og tungt.
En: It was summer, and the sun shone warmly outside, but inside the room, it felt cold and heavy.

Da: Søren sad ved bordet og stirrede tomt ud af vinduet.
En: Søren was sitting at the table, staring blankly out the window.

Da: Han havde ikke bemærket hende komme ind.
En: He hadn't noticed her come in.

Da: Freja gik forsigtigt hen til ham og satte sig på stolen ved siden af.
En: Freja walked cautiously over to him and sat down on the chair next to him.

Da: Hun prøvede at smile, men det føltes tvunget.
En: She tried to smile, but it felt forced.

Da: "Hej, Søren," sagde hun blidt.
En: "Hi, Søren," she said gently.

Da: Han rørte sig ikke.
En: He didn't move.

Da: Hans øjne var tomme, og hun kunne se smerten i hans blik.
En: His eyes were empty, and she could see the pain in his gaze.

Da: Freja følte en bølge af skyld skylle over sig.
En: Freja felt a wave of guilt wash over her.

Da: Hun havde ikke været der for ham, da han havde mest brug for det.
En: She hadn't been there for him when he needed it most.

Da: Nu var han her, fanget i sin egen sind, og hun vidste ikke, hvordan hun kunne nå ham.
En: Now he was here, trapped in his own mind, and she didn’t know how to reach him.

Da: Hun besøgte ham regelmæssigt, men hver gang var det det samme.
En: She visited him regularly, but every time it was the same.

Da: Stilhed.
En: Silence.

Da: Ingen reaktion.
En: No reaction.

Da: Hun følte sig magtesløs.
En: She felt powerless.

Da: Hun ønskede med hele sit hjerte at kunne gøre noget.
En: She wanted with all her heart to do something.

Da: Noget, der kunne bringe ham tilbage til hende.
En: Something that could bring him back to her.

Da: I dag besluttede hun sig for at prøve noget andet.
En: Today, she decided to try something different.

Da: Hun vidste, det var risikoabelt, men hun kunne ikke holde ud at se ham sådan længere.
En: She knew it was risky, but she couldn't bear to see him like this any longer.

Da: "Søren," startede hun igen, hendes stemme rystede lidt.
En: "Søren," she started again, her voice trembling slightly.

Da: "Jeg ved ikke, om du kan høre mig.
En: "I don't know if you can hear me.

Da: Men jeg vil gerne tale med dig.
En: But I want to talk to you.

Da: Virkelig tale."
En: Really talk."

Da: Han blinkede.
En: He blinked.

Da: Det var en lille bevægelse, men det var nok til at give hende mod.
En: It was a small movement, but it was enough to give her courage.

Da: Hun fortsatte.
En: She continued.

Da: "Jeg har det også svært," sagde hun ærligt.
En: "I’m struggling too," she said honestly.

Da: "Jeg føler mig skyldig.
En: "I feel guilty.

Da: Jeg tænker hele tiden på, hvad jeg kunne have gjort anderledes.
En: I keep thinking about what I could have done differently.

Da: Og jeg føler mig så magtesløs.
En: And I feel so powerless.

Da: Men jeg vil ikke give op på dig.
En: But I don’t want to give up on you.

Da: Jeg elsker dig, Søren."
En: I love you, Søren."

Da: Tårer begyndte at trille ned ad hendes kinder.
En: Tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Da: Det var første gang, hun lod sig selv være sårbar foran ham.
En: It was the first time she allowed herself to be vulnerable in front of him.

Da: "Jeg har også mine egne mørke dage," indrømmede hun.
En: "I have my own dark days too," she admitted.

Da: "Men vi kan komme igennem det sammen.
En: "But we can get through this together.

Da: Jeg er her for dig."
En: I am here for you."

Da: Søren vendte langsomt hovedet mod hende.
En: Søren slowly turned his head toward her.

Da: Der var en glimt af noget i hans øjne.
En: There was a glimmer of something in his eyes.

Da: En følelse.
En: A feeling.

Da: Han rakte tøvende hånden ud og tog hendes.
En: He hesitantly reached out his hand and took hers.

Da: Freja følte en bølge af håb skylle over sig.
En: Freja felt a wave of hope wash over her.

Da: Det var en lille bevægelse, men det var et skridt i den rigtige retning.
En: It was a small movement, but it was a step in the right direction.

Da: "Tak," hviskede han blødt.
En: "Thank you," he whispered softly.

Da: Hans stemme var ru og svag, men det var den første lyd, hun havde hørt fra ham i uger.
En: His voice was rough and weak, but it was the first sound she had heard from him in weeks.

Da: Freja kunne næsten ikke tro det.
En: Freja could hardly believe it.

Da: Hun klemte hans hånd og smilede gennem sine tårer.
En: She squeezed his hand and smiled through her tears.

Da: De sad der i stilhed, hånd i hånd, mens solen skinnede gennem vinduet og fyldte værelset med et varmt lys.
En: They sat there in silence, hand in hand, while the sun shone through the window and filled the room with a warm light.

Da: Hun vidste, at deres rejse ikke var overstået.
En: She knew their journey was not over.

Da: Der ville være flere hårde dage og flere udfordringer.
En: There would be more tough days and more challenges.

Da: Men for første gang følte hun, at de kunne klare det sammen.
En: But for the first time, she felt they could handle it together.

Da: Hun begyndte at tilgive sig selv og forstod, hvor vigtigt det var at være åben og ærlig over for sin bror.
En: She began to forgive herself and understood how important it was to be open and honest with her brother.

Da: Solen gik langsomt ned og kastede lange skygger i gården udenfor.
En: The sun slowly set, casting long shadows in the courtyard outside.

Da: Indenfor, i det lille sterile værelse, sad Freja og Søren tæt sammen og delte en stille men kraftfuld forbindelse.
En: Inside, in the small sterile room, Freja and Søren sat close together, sharing a quiet but powerful connection.

Da: Det var starten på en ny begyndelse for dem begge.
En: It was the start of a new beginning for both of them.
