Story Transcript:

Lv: Vienu skaistu rudens rītu Rīgā, Zigmunds gāja pa Vecrīgas bruģētajām ielām, domādams par gaidāmo tikšanos ar savu labo draugu Māri.
En: One beautiful autumn morning in Riga, Zigmunds walked along the cobbled streets of Old Riga, thinking about the upcoming meeting with his good friend Māris.

Lv: Viņš bija tik aizrāvies ar domām, ka nepamanīja, kā no kādas veikala iznāca sieviete ar lielu, pūkainu suni.
En: He was so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice a woman coming out of a store with a large, fluffy dog.

Lv: Suns bija tik līdzīgs Māra sunim, ka Zigmunds nekavējoties aizmiga pa priekšu un, domādams, ka tas ir Māris, sāka mīļi glāstīt suni pa galvu.
En: The dog looked so similar to Māris's dog that Zigmunds immediately leaned in and, thinking it was Māris, began petting the dog lovingly on the head.

Lv: Suns bija saputrojies un izskatījās nesaprašanā.
En: The dog looked confused and perplexed.

Lv: Sieviete, kuras vārds bija Anna, bija sunīša īpašniece un skatījās uz Zigmundu ar apbrīnu un smaidu.
En: The woman, named Anna, was the dog's owner, and she looked at Zigmunds with amusement and a smile.

Lv: "Sveiki, vai jūs pazīstat manu suni?
En: "Hello, do you know my dog?"

Lv: " viņa jautāja ar smieklīgu toni.
En: she asked with a playful tone.

Lv: Zigmunds, pēkšņi apjauties, ka ir pieļāvis kļūdu, sāka smieties un palika sarkans.
En: Suddenly realizing his mistake, Zigmunds started laughing and turned red.

Lv: "Atvainojiet, es domāju, ka tas ir mans draugs Māris.
En: "I'm sorry, I thought it was my friend Māris.

Lv: Viņam ir līdzīgs suns, un es neuzmanīju," viņš skaidroja.
En: He has a similar dog, and I didn't pay attention," he explained.

Lv: Anna žēlīgi pasmējās un teica: "Neviens vēl nav sajaucis manu mīluli ar cilvēku!
En: Anna chuckled sympathetically and said, "No one has ever mistaken my darling for a human before!"

Lv: "Tikmēr patiesais Māris noapaļoja stūri un redzēja savu draugu Zigmundu sarunājoties ar Annu.
En: Meanwhile, the real Māris turned the corner and saw his friend Zigmunds talking to Anna.

Lv: "Sveiks, Zigmund!
En: "Hello, Zigmunds!

Lv: Kas te notiek?
En: What's going on here?"

Lv: " viņš vaicāja ar interesi.
En: he asked with interest.

Lv: Zigmunds Mārim izstāstīja visu stāstu, un viss kļuva skaidrs.
En: Zigmunds told Māris the whole story, and everything became clear.

Lv: Drīz viņi visi kopa smējās par šo nenotikumu.
En: Soon they all laughed together about the misunderstanding.

Lv: Anna, Zigmunds un Māris kopā devās uz tuvējo kafejnīcu, lai iedzertu siltas kafijas un labāk iepazītos.
En: Anna, Zigmunds, and Māris went to a nearby café to have warm coffee and get to know each other better.

Lv: Suns spēlējās zem galda, kamēr cilvēki dalījās stāstos un izveidoja jaunus draudzības tiltus.
En: The dog played under the table while the people shared stories and formed new bonds of friendship.

Lv: Pēcpusdienā, ar smiekliem un jaunatklātām draudzībām siltumā, viņi visi saprata, ka nejaušības reizēm rada brīnišķīgas tikšanās.
En: In the afternoon, with laughter and newfound warmth of friendship, they all realized that sometimes coincidences lead to wonderful meetings.

Lv: Zigmunds vairs nekad nesajauca Māra suni ar citu, un Anna bija priecīga, ka ir ieguvusi divus jaunus draugus.
En: Zigmunds never mistook Māris's dog for another again, and Anna was delighted to have gained two new friends.

Lv: Un tā vienkārša samiksēšana kļuva par sākumu mūža draudzībai.
En: And so, a simple mix-up became the beginning of a lifelong friendship.
