Sr: Bila je sunčana jesenja popodne u Beogradu kada je Milica odlučila da poseti Kalemegdansku tvrđavu.
En: It was a sunny autumn afternoon in Belgrade when Milica decided to visit the Kalemegdan Fortress.

Sr: Listovi su šuštali pod njenim nogama dok se penjala uz kaldrmisane staze, uživajući u pogledu na ušće Save u Dunav.
En: The leaves were rustling beneath her feet as she climbed the cobblestone paths, enjoying the view of the confluence of the Sava and Danube rivers.

Sr: Milica je, kao strastvena ljubiteljka istorije, često dolazila ovamo.
En: As a passionate history enthusiast, Milica often came here.

Sr: Znala je svaki kutak Kalemegdana, ali ovoga puta, njena pažnja je bila usmerena na vodičevo predavanje o srednjovekovnim ratnicima koji su nekada štitili tvrđavu.
En: She knew every corner of Kalemegdan, but this time, her attention was drawn to the guide's lecture on the medieval warriors who had once defended the fortress.

Sr: U jednom trenutku, dok je grupa slušala priču o legendarnim junacima, Milica je primetila figuru muškarca koji je stajao potpuno nepomično uz zid tvrđave.
En: At one point, as the group listened to the story of the legendary heroes, Milica noticed a man standing completely still against the fortress wall.

Sr: Bio je odeven u kostim koji je izgledao kao da je sišao sa slika iz istorijskih knjiga - kao pravi srednjovekovni ratnik, sa oklopom i šlemom na glavi.
En: He was dressed in a costume that looked like it had come straight from the pages of a history book - a true medieval warrior, with armor and a helmet.

Sr: Sunce je igralo sa sjajem njegovog oklopa, dodatno naglašavajući njegovu statičnu pozu.
En: The sun played with the shine of his armor, further emphasizing his static pose.

Sr: Ovo je morao biti deo ture, pomislila je Milica.
En: This must be part of the tour, thought Milica.

Sr: Kako divan način da se upotpuni priča – mislila je i odlučila da priđe "kamenom ratniku".
En: What a wonderful way to enhance the story - she thought and decided to approach the "stone warrior."

Sr: Pre nego što je iko mogao da je zaustavi, stajala je pored "statue", izvadila fotoaparat i nežno dodirnula hladan oklop.
En: Before anyone could stop her, she stood next to the "statue," took out her camera, and gently touched the cold armor.

Sr: "O kakvo perfekcionističko oslikavanje srednjovekovnog ratnika," šapnula je Milica, misleći da niko ne čuje.
En: "What a perfectly painted depiction of a medieval warrior," whispered Milica, thinking no one could hear her.

Sr: "Da li si za borbu ili slobodu pad'o, šta kriju tvoje oči ispod tog metalnog očelja?
En: "Have you fallen for battle or for freedom, what do your eyes hide beneath that metal helm?"

Sr: "Nikola, mladić koji se neopazice naslonio na zid i zaneseno slušao vodičevo predavanje, bio je potpuno zatečen kada je osetio dodir.
En: Nikola, a young man who had silently leaned against the wall and listened captivated to the guide's lecture, was completely taken aback when he felt the touch.

Sr: Nije očekivao da će ga neko pomešati sa nekim iz prošlosti, a kamoli da će mu neko tako divno govoriti.
En: He didn't expect to be mistaken for someone from the past, let alone to be spoken to so beautifully.

Sr: Na trenutak je zadržao svoj smireni stav, ali onda nije mogao da se suzdrži i izboje propi prasak smeha.
En: He kept his composed stance for a moment, but then he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Sr: Milica se trgnula, skoro ispustivši svoj fotoaparat.
En: Milica startled, almost dropping her camera.

Sr: "Oprosti, ja.
En: "I'm sorry, I...

Sr: ja sam mislila da si deo postavke!
En: I thought you were part of the exhibit!"

Sr: "Nikolin smeh se pretvorio u osmeh.
En: Nikola's laughter turned into a smile.

Sr: "A ja sam mislio da sam se dobro kamuflirao danas, ali izgleda da sam ipak samo Nikola, običan posetilac, a ne srednjovekovni vitez.
En: "And here I thought I had disguised myself well today, but it seems I am just Nikola, a regular visitor, not a medieval knight."

Sr: "Zbunjenost je brzo nestala, a Milica se počela smejati zajedno s Nikolom.
En: Confusion quickly turned into amusement and Milica began laughing with Nikola.

Sr: Pristupili su im i drugi posetioci, pitajući se da li je to deo predstave koju su organizovali vodiči.
En: Other visitors approached them, wondering if this was part of the performance organized by the guides.

Sr: Njihova neplanirana predstava postala je hit među prisutnima, a vodič, iznenađen tom improvizacijom, uključio ih je u svoj govor, nahvalivši Milicin interes za istoriju koji je prouzrokovao tako humorističnu situaciju.
En: Their unplanned performance became a hit among the audience, and the guide, surprised by the improvisation, included them in his speech, praising Milica's interest in history, which had caused such a humorous situation.

Sr: Dok se dan bližio kraju, Milica i Nikola su razmenili brojeve telefona, obećavajući jedno drugom da će se ponovo sresti kako bi ponovo oživeli istoriju, ali ovoga puta možda u nekom manje konfuznom okruženju.
En: As the day drew to a close, Milica and Nikola exchanged phone numbers, promising each other that they would meet again to bring history to life once more, perhaps in a less confusing environment this time.

Sr: Sunce se polako spuštalo iza zidina Kalemegdana, a dvoje novih prijatelja su se razišli, noseći sa sobom priču koja će postati jedna od omiljenih anegdota za sve naredne posete tvrđavi.
En: As the sun slowly set behind the walls of Kalemegdan, the two new friends parted ways, carrying with them a story that would become one of the favorite anecdotes for all future visits to the fortress.
