Story Transcript:

Sl: Nekoč na sončen dan, je Ana zbrala prijatelja Luko in Mateja za obisk čudovitega jezera Bled.
En: Once upon a sunny day, Ana gathered her friends Luka and Matej to visit the beautiful Lake Bled.

Sl: Vsi so sončni žarki odbijali se od kristalno čiste vode in obdajali grad na vrhu hriba s toplim sijem.
En: The sun's rays reflected off the crystal-clear water, surrounding the castle on top of the hill with a warm glow.

Sl: Ana, ki je bila znana po tem, da na svojem telefonu ustvarja popolne spomine, je vzela svoj najnovejši model in povabila prijatelja k selfieju.
En: Ana, known for creating perfect memories on her phone, took out her latest model and invited her friends to take a selfie.

Sl: "Pridita, stojita tukaj, z gradom v ozadju bo popolno," je vznemirjena dejala in jima pomahala, naj se ji pridružita.
En: "Come on, stand here, with the castle in the background, it'll be perfect," she exclaimed excitedly, waving for them to join her.

Sl: Luka in Matej, vedno pripravljena na smeh in zabavo, sta se hitro postavila ob Ano.
En: Luka and Matej, always ready for laughter and fun, quickly stood next to Ana.

Sl: Vsi trije so se nasmehnili in Ana je začela šteti: "Ena, dve, tri..."
En: All three smiled, and Ana started counting: "One, two, three..."

Sl: Ko pa je telefoniranje doseglo višek vznemirjenja, se je Anin telefon z nenadnim sunkom zdrsnil iz njene roke.
En: But at the height of the excitement, Ana's phone suddenly slipped from her hand.

Sl: "Splash!" Telefon je pristal v modri vodi jezera, in trije prijatelji so obstali kot kipi.
En: "Splash!" The phone landed in the blue water of the lake, and the three friends froze in shock.

Sl: Nekaj trenutkov so samo strmeli v valove, ki so se širili v krogu tam, kjer je telefon izginil med vodne rastline.
En: For a moment, they just stared at the ripples spreading in the spot where the phone vanished among the aquatic plants.

Sl: "Oh ne, moje slike, moji spomini!" je zavzdihnila Ana.
En: "Oh no, my pictures, my memories!" sighed Ana.

Sl: Luka je brez besed snelo svoje superge in se pripravljal, da skoči za telefonom.
En: Speechless, Luka took off his sneakers and prepared to jump in after the phone.

Sl: Matej pa je hitro opomnil, "Počakaj! Mogoče lahko uporabimo vejo ali kaj, da dosežemo telefon."
En: Matej quickly interjected, "Wait! Maybe we can use a branch or something to reach the phone."

Sl: Po kratkem iskanju so našli dolgo palico, a vsak poskus potopiti jo v vodo in poiskati telefon je bil neuspešen.
En: After a brief search, they found a long stick, but every attempt to submerge it in the water and retrieve the phone was unsuccessful.

Sl: Luka, ne da bi še enkrat okleval, je skočil v hladno jezersko vodo.
En: Without hesitating, Luka jumped into the cold lake water.

Sl: Voda je bila sveža in jasna, a za temno elektroniko v temnih globinah jezera ni bilo lahko videti.
En: The water was chilly and clear, but it was not easy to see the dark electronics in the depths of the lake.

Sl: Luka se je potapljal in vrtel, Ana pa je ob robu jezera visela nad površino vode, Matej pa ji je pomagal držati ravnotežje.
En: As Luka dived and searched, Ana hung over the edge of the lake, with Matej helping her maintain her balance.

Sl: Medtem ko je Luka iskal, so se na obrežju zbrali radovedni turisti.
En: Meanwhile, curious tourists gathered on the shore.

Sl: Nekateri so ponudili svoje pomoč, drugi pa so snemali dogajanje na svoje telefone, misleč, da gre za kakšno nenavadno iskanje zaklada.
En: Some offered their help, while others recorded the event on their phones, thinking it was some kind of unusual treasure hunt.

Sl: Končno, luč upanja - Luka je dvignil roko iz vode in v njej je bil Anin telefon!
En: Finally, a glimmer of hope emerged - Luka raised his hand from the water, holding Ana's phone!

Sl: Vzkliki veselja so odmevali med množico, Ana pa je objela svojega mokrega junaka in se smejala od olajšanja.
En: Cheers of joy echoed among the crowd, and Ana hugged her wet hero, laughing with relief.

Sl: Matej je iz svoje torbe vzel brisačo in ponudil Luki, ki se je tresel od hladu.
En: Matej took a towel from his bag and offered it to Luka, who was shivering from the cold.

Sl: Telefon so pregledali in na presenečenje vseh je deloval!
En: They checked the phone and to everyone's surprise, it still worked!

Sl: Anin ovitek za telefon je bil vodoodporen in njena dragocenost je bila rešena.
En: Ana's phone case was waterproof, and her precious device was saved.

Sl: Z lekcijo, ki se je naučila na težji način, je Ana predlagala, da preostanek dneva posvetijo samo uživanju v naravi – brez telefonov.
En: With a lesson learned the hard way, Ana suggested that they spend the rest of the day just enjoying nature - without phones.

Sl: Vse tri je združila ta neobičajna pustolovščina in sklenili so, da bo to zgodba, ki ji ni treba biti shranjena na telefonu, da bi jo zapomnili za vedno.
En: This unusual adventure brought the three of them together, and they decided that this was a story that didn't need to be stored on a phone to be remembered forever.
