Story Transcript:

Da: På en lys og livlig eftermiddag susede travle København omkring Lars.
En: On a bright and lively afternoon, busy Copenhagen buzzed around Lars.

Da: Han var en skægget fyr, med venlige brune øjne og en aura af ro.
En: He was a bearded guy, with kind brown eyes and an aura of calm.

Da: I denne solbeskinnede by fandt han Signe, en ung dame med funklende blå øjne og et smil, der kunne lysne enhver grå dag.
En: In this sunlit city, he found Signe, a young lady with sparkling blue eyes and a smile that could brighten any gray day.

Da: Men mødet mellem dem var ikke som alle andre møder.
En: But their meeting was not like any other meeting.

Da: Lars gik ned ad den fyldte cykelsti, fyldt med koncentrerede mennesker på deres cykler.
En: Lars walked down the crowded bike path, filled with focused people on their bicycles.

Da: I sin dagdrømning glemte han, hvor han stod.
En: Lost in his daydream, he forgot where he stood.

Da: Slentrede lidt for langt ind på cykelstien, trådte han ved et uheld på noget.
En: Strolling a bit too far onto the bike path, he accidentally stepped on something.

Da: Dum!
En: Oops!

Da: Det var en cykel.
En: It was a bike.

Da: Og den cykel tilhørte ingen andre end Signe.
En: And that bike belonged to none other than Signe.

Da: Signe stoppede brat op.
En: Signe abruptly stopped.

Da: Hendes ansigt udtrykte først overraskelse, så vrede.
En: Her face first showed surprise, then anger.

Da: Lars, derimod, var fuldstændigt forfærdet over sin klodsethed.
En: Lars, on the other hand, was completely horrified by his clumsiness.

Da: "Undskyld, undskyld," gispede han gentagne gange, hans brune øjne vidt åbne i rædsel.
En: "Sorry, sorry," he gasped repeatedly, his brown eyes wide open in terror.

Da: Signes vrede dulmede lidt ved synet af Lars, der så så beklagelig ud.
En: Signe's anger eased a bit at the sight of Lars looking so pitiful.

Da: Han virkede på ingen måde truende, snarere det modsatte.
En: He seemed not at all threatening, rather the opposite.

Da: "Pass bedre på," sagde hun og indsamlede sin værdighed, før hun cyklede videre.
En: "Be more careful," she said and regained her composure before cycling on.

Da: Lars rystede på hovedet ved sin egen klodsethed.
En: Lars shook his head at his own clumsiness.

Da: Signe var på sin cykel, på vej ned af vejen.
En: Signe was on her bike, heading down the road.

Da: Og så indså Lars, at han havde trådt på hendes cykel og ødelagt hendes baghjul.
En: And then Lars realized he had stepped on her bike and bent her rear wheel.

Da: Det var bøjet.
En: It was twisted.

Da: Det næste, der skulle ske, var klart for Lars.
En: The next thing that had to happen was clear to Lars.

Da: Han begyndte at løbe.
En: He began to run.

Da: Han løb og løb, indtil han fangede Signe.
En: He ran and ran until he caught up with Signe.

Da: Han fortalte hende, hvad der var sket med hendes baghjul, og at han ville dække omkostningerne.
En: He told her what had happened to her rear wheel and that he would cover the costs.

Da: Signe var først vred, men så blev hun rørt.
En: Signe was initially angry but then touched.

Da: Lars' oprigtighed skinnede klart igennem.
En: Lars' sincerity shone through brightly.

Da: Hun takkede ham og tog hans hjælp.
En: She thanked him and accepted his help.

Da: Så gik de sammen til den nærmeste cykelbutik, hvor Lars insisterede på at betale for reparationen.
En: So, they walked together to the nearest bike shop, where Lars insisted on paying for the repair.

Da: Signe takkede ham og inviterede ham på kaffe.
En: Signe thanked him and invited him for coffee.

Da: I den ro, der sænkede sig over dem, mens de drak deres kaffe, indså de begge, at de nød hinandens selskab.
En: In the calm that settled over them as they drank their coffee, they both realized they enjoyed each other's company.

Da: Hvad der begyndte som et uheld blev begyndelsen på et varmt venskab.
En: What started as an accident became the beginning of a warm friendship.

Da: Eftermiddag gled langsomt ind i aften, og København blev badet i tusmørke.
En: The afternoon slowly transitioned into evening, and Copenhagen was bathed in twilight.

Da: De to nye venner gik sammen gennem byen, tættere end de var før.
En: The two new friends walked through the city together, closer than they were before.

Da: Sådan, på en fyldt cykelsti en solbeskinnet eftermiddag, blev et uheld til noget smukt.
En: Thus, on a crowded bike path on a sunlit afternoon, an accident turned into something beautiful.

Da: Et uheld, der bragte Lars og Signe sammen.
En: An accident that brought Lars and Signe together.
