En: There's a buzz at the roastery café caladh in Baile Átha Cliath. Ga: Tá an aer lán le boladh cumharthe na gcaife nua rósta. En: The air is filled with the aromatic scent of freshly roasted coffee. Ga: Lasmuigh, tá gaoth fionnuar an fhómhair ag séideadh, agus tá duilleoga donn ag titim thart. En: Outside, a cool autumn breeze is blowing, and brown leaves are falling all around. Ga: Tá scafaill fuaimeanna na mbriseadh isteach i gcóipleabhra, agus osclaítear doirse mo lár an chafé, os ard. En: The sound of runners on the pavement is like rhythmic noise in copybooks, and the café doors are opened wide. Ga: Eoin agus Maeve, beirt chairde iontach i gceart, ag dul isteach. En: Eoin and Maeve, a pair of great friends, are entering. Ga: Tá excitement san aer. En: Excitement is in the air. Ga: "Bíonn Halloween ann go luath," a deir Eoin, "Caithfidh mé caife iontach a aimsiú don chóisir." En: "Halloween is coming soon," says Eoin, "I have to find a perfect coffee for the party." Ga: Bíonn radaí geallta de bhoganacha caife as chuile scéal ar na seilfeanna. En: Rows of enticing bags of coffee beans from every story line the shelves. Ga: Tá pictiúir áille ar na lipéid ar gach mála. En: The labels on each bag feature beautiful pictures. Ga: Tá súile Eoin ag damhsa ar fud an stór, sachimead uaireanta. En: Eoin's eyes are dancing around the store, overwhelmed. Ga: "Cad a cheapann tú, Maeve?" a fhiafraíonn sé, le beagán stró. En: "What do you think, Maeve?" he asks, with a hint of strain. Ga: Maeve, le meangadh gáire air, féachann go sciobtha. En: Maeve, with a beaming smile, glances quickly. Ga: "Tóg an ceann le fréamhacha torthaí. Nó b'fhéidir an bláthachán seacláide?" Bíonn a glór mórálach agus spraíúil. En: "Take the one with fruity roots. Or maybe the chocolate blossom?" Her voice is cheerful and playful. Ga: Ach, ní fhéadann cabhrú le Eoin mothú níos measa. En: However, Eoin can't shake the growing feeling of pressure. Ga: "I ndáiríre, ní féidir liom cinneadh a dhéanamh," a deir Eoin, a shúile ag faire ar níos mó den stoc. En: "Honestly, I can't decide," says Eoin, his eyes scanning more of the stock. Ga: Ach, níor lig sé diabhal a chur ar zene a bhí á dhéanamh faoi chomaoin. En: But, he didn't let the current of indecision disrupt the calm he had cultivated. Ga: Bhí a fhios aige nach mbeadh sé in ann an scéal seo a thógáil arís don ghrúpa agus don oíche ollmhór.. En: He knew he couldn't redo this story for the group and the grand evening. Ga: Féachann sé ar na málaí go léir. En: He looks at all the bags. Ga: Gan smaoineamh, glacann sé anál domhain, suaimhneach. En: Without thinking, he takes a deep, calming breath. Ga: Dúnann sé a shúile, ag ligean do bholadh an tumadóireacht isteach ina aigne. En: He closes his eyes, letting the aroma dive into his mind. Ga: Ansin, gan rómharán, cuireann sé a lámh amach isteach sa phacáiste atá go deas dathúil agus súaraí. En: Then, without hesitation, he reaches out and grabs a package that is both handsome and striking. Ga: Bhuel, sin é. Tá cinneadh déanta aige. En: Well, that's it. He has made a decision. Ga: Tríd sin uile, tá muinín aige as a instinct féin. En: Through it all, he trusts his own...
