Sr: Odmah što je stiglo proleće, Luka je osetio miris avanture u vazduhu.
En: As soon as spring arrived, Luka felt the scent of adventure in the air.

Sr: Smeškajući se, on je ušao u toplu kafanu gde se okupljala celokupna čaršija.
En: Smiling, he entered the warm tavern where the whole neighborhood gathered.

Sr: Večeras je bio poseban dan; njegova najbolja prijateljica Ana slavila je rođendan, a iznenađenje je priređivala i Milena, Lukina simpatija.
En: It was a special evening; his best friend Ana was celebrating her birthday, and Luka's crush Milena was also planning a surprise for her.

Sr: Kad je ušao, ugledao je starog konobara, koji je već sa vrata povikao: "Ej, Luka, ti li si? Dođi, prijatelju, imamo novu rakiju!"
En: As he walked in, he saw the old waiter, who shouted from the door: "Hey, Luka, is that you? Come on in, my friend, we have a new brandy!"

Sr: Prijatelji su sedeli za velikim drvenim stolom okruženim smehom i pričom.
En: His friends were sitting around a large wooden table, surrounded by laughter and conversation.

Sr: Luka, želeći da ispadne velikodušan, pritrčao je konobaru i rekao: "Hoću da naručim rakiju za sve, a posebno za Anu!". Konobar se namignu i otišao po piće.
En: Wanting to appear generous, Luka ran to the waiter and said, "I want to order brandy for everyone, especially for Ana!" The waiter winked and went to get the drinks.

Sr: Međutim, umesto da donese rakiju za sve goste, konobar je Luki doneo ceo pladanj sa rakijom - bilo je tu bar trideset čašica!
En: However, instead of bringing brandy for all the guests, the waiter brought Luka a whole tray of brandy - there were at least thirty glasses!

Sr: Luka, zbunjen, ali u duhu dobrog domaćina, pokušao je da izgleda kao da je baš tako i hteo.
En: Confused but wanting to be a good host, Luka tried to act as though that was exactly what he intended.

Sr: Ana i Milena su počele da se smeju kad su videle gomilu čašica ispred Luku. "Luka, ti planiraš da postaneš rakija kralj večeras?" šalila se Ana. Milena je dodala, "Moraćemo da ti pomognemo da oslobodiš taj pladanj!"
En: Ana and Milena started laughing when they saw the pile of glasses in front of Luka. "Luka, are you planning to become the brandy king tonight?" joked Ana. Milena added, "We'll have to help you get rid of that tray!"

Sr: I tako, to veče, u kafani se vodila vesela borba.
En: And so, that evening, a cheerful battle unfolded in the tavern.

Sr: Svako ko je hteo da nazdravi morao je prethodno da pogodi neku Lukinu tajnu ili anegdotu koju je Ana iznosila, a bila je poznata po tome što zna sve priče.
En: Anyone who wanted to toast had to first guess one of Luka's secrets or anecdotes as Ana shared them – she was known for knowing all the stories.

Sr: Na kraju, su svi podjednako popili rakiju, smejali se bezbroj priča i Luka nije morao da pije sam.
En: In the end, everyone drank the brandy equally, laughed at countless stories, and Luka didn't have to drink alone.

Sr: Ana je dobila najlepšu proslavu rođendana, a Luka i Milena su se još više zbližili jer je Milena na kraju pomogla Luki da smesti preostale čašice rakije po stolovima kafane, delili su ih gostima i širili veselje.
En: Ana had the most beautiful birthday celebration, and Luka and Milena grew even closer as she helped Luka distribute the remaining glasses of brandy to the tables in the tavern, sharing them with the guests and spreading joy.

Sr: Luka je te večeri naučio jednu važnu lekciju - da naručivanje velike količine rakije može da bude više od greške, može da bude početak divne noći punane smeha, prijateljstva i možda jošnečega.
En: That evening, Luka learned an important lesson - ordering a large amount of brandy can be more than a mistake; it can be the start of a wonderful night full of laughter, friendship, and maybe even more.

Sr: A kafanski stolovi i šarene lampe svedočili su toj nezaboravnoj noći.
En: The tavern tables and colorful lamps bore witness to that unforgettable night.
