En: In the very heart of summer, the sun's rays gently caress Plitvička jezera. Hr: Voda blista na suncu, a ptice pjevaju u daljini. En: The water sparkles in the sun, and birds sing in the distance. Hr: Luka i Ana hodaju stazama prekrivenim zelenilom, zastaju povremeno kako bi se divili ljepoti oko sebe. En: Luka and Ana walk along paths covered in greenery, occasionally stopping to admire the beauty around them. Hr: Luka je zamišljen. En: Luka is deep in thought. Hr: Iznutra ga muči dilema. En: Internally he is troubled by a dilemma. Hr: Voli Anu više nego prijatelj, ali nije siguran kako joj to reći. En: He loves Ana more than just as a friend, but he's not sure how to tell her. Hr: Ana je vesela i razdragana, uživa u svakom trenutku, ne zna da Luka ima tajnu. En: Ana is cheerful and carefree, enjoying every moment, unaware that Luka has a secret. Hr: Ali ima i svoju tajnu. En: But she has her own secret too. Hr: Planira se preseliti u inozemstvo, a nije mu to rekla. En: She plans to move abroad and hasn't told him. Hr: Dok hodaju, razgovor je lagan i opušten. En: As they walk, the conversation is light and relaxed. Hr: Luka skuplja hrabrost, odlučuje pronaći savršeno mjesto za razgovor.

En: They arrive at a viewpoint offering a view of the magnificent waterfalls. Hr: Mjesto je savršeno, mirno, kao stvoreno za iskrene riječi. En: The place is perfect, peaceful, as if made for honest words. Hr: Ana osjeća da nešto nije u redu. En: Ana senses that something is amiss. Hr: Primjećuje Lukinu napetost. En: She notices Luka's tension. Hr: Njezino srce ubrzano kuca, zna da mu mora reći svoju tajnu. En: Her heart races, knowing she must tell him her secret. Hr: Pogledi im se susreću, i prije nego što Luka uspije išta reći, Ana izgovara: "Seliću se. En: Their eyes meet, and before Luka can say anything, Ana blurts out: "I’m moving." Hr: "Lukine oči postaju širom otvorene. En: Luka's eyes widen. Hr: Riječi mu zapnu u grlu. En: Words catch in his throat. Hr: Ana nastavlja objašnjavati, govori mu o novim prilikama, o životu koji je čeka. En: Ana continues to explain, telling him about new opportunities, about the life that awaits her. Hr: Luka stoji u tišini, slušajući, dok mu srce polako prihvaća stvarnost. En: Luka stands silently, listening, as his heart slowly accepts the reality. Hr: Konačno, Luka duboko udahne. En: Finally, Luka takes a deep breath. Hr: Osmjehne se Ani: "Podržavam te. En: He smiles at Ana: "I support you. Hr: Zaslužuješ biti sretna. En: You deserve to be happy."
