Story Transcript:

Et: Kumu Kunstimuuseum oli täna täis inimesi.
En: The Kumu Art Museum was full of people today.

Et: Südames pulbitsemas armastus kunsti vastu, Maret ruttas Taneliga sisse.
En: With a heart bubbling with love for art, Maret hurried inside with Tanel.

Et: Väljas krõmpsutasid lehed jalge all, punased ja kuldsed sügisesed toonid tegid päeva rõõmsaks.
En: Outside, leaves crunched underfoot, and the red and golden autumn colors made the day joyful.

Et: Maret lootis näha uut näitust.
En: Maret hoped to see the new exhibition.

Et: Kuid Maretil oli mure.
En: However, Maret had a concern.

Et: Viimased paar nädalat olid allergiad teda vaevanud.
En: Over the last few weeks, her allergies had been troubling her.

Et: Ent täna oli oluline päev.
En: But today was an important day.

Et: Ta ei tahtnud midagi vahele jätta.
En: She didn’t want to miss it.

Et: Tanel, Maret'i parim sõber, silmitses teda kahtlevalt.
En: Tanel, Maret’s best friend, looked at her doubtfully.

Et: “Kas sa oled kindel, et saad hakkama?” küsis ta.
En: "Are you sure you can manage?"

Et: “Pean proovima,” vastas Maret naeratades, kuigi ta silmad olid veidi vesised.
En: he asked.

Et: Nad jalutasid eksponaatide vahel.
En: "I have to try,” Maret replied with a smile, though her eyes were somewhat watery.

Et: Kõik oli vaikne ja rahulik.
En: They walked among the exhibits.

Et: Mõned külastajad sosistasid, teised vaatasid keskendunult maale ja skulptuure.
En: Everything was quiet and peaceful.

Et: Ühes nurgas märkas Maret meest nimega Kaarel, kes noogutas talle sõbralikult.
En: Some visitors whispered, others looked intently at the paintings and sculptures.

Et: Aegamööda hakkas Maret tundma pisikesi sügelisi ninas.
En: In one corner, Maret noticed a man named Kaarel, who nodded to her amicably.

Et: Peagi hakkas ta iga kolmanda või neljanda sammu järel aevastama.
En: Gradually, Maret began to feel a slight itch in her nose.

Et: Tanel märkas seda ja pakkus salvrätikut.
En: Soon, she was sneezing every third or fourth step.

Et: “Mine parem istu korraks,” ütles ta rahulikult.
En: Tanel noticed this and offered her a tissue.

Et: Maret raputas pead, nähes sihikul suurt skulptuuri.
En: "You'd better sit down for a moment," he said calmly.

Et: See tõmbas teda.
En: Maret shook her head, focusing on a large sculpture.

Et: Ent mida lähemale ta jõudis, seda hullemaks läksid tema aevastushood.
En: It drew her in.

Et: Kaarel, kes oli märganud Mareti võitlust, astus ligi.
En: But the closer she got, the worse her sneezing fits became.

Et: “Võib-olla sa peaksid korraks välja minema.
En: Kaarel, who had noticed Maret's struggle, approached.

Et: Puhka veidi, siis saame proovida teistmoodi kunsti vaadata.” Kuid Maret tahtis näha skulptuuri lähemalt, hoolimata aevastustega kaasnevast piinast.
En: "Maybe you should step outside for a moment.

Et: Äkki läks tema enesetunne väga halvaks.
En: Rest a bit, and then we can try to experience the art differently.” Yet Maret wanted to see the sculpture up close, despite the torment of sneezing.

Et: Olaalsed pisarad hakkasid voolama ja tema hingamine muutus raskemaks.
En: Suddenly, she felt very unwell.

Et: Ta hakkas köhima ja inimestest täidetud saalis tekkis väike sagin.
En: Tears began to flow, and her breathing became more difficult.

Et: Tanel ja Kaarel tõttasid appi.
En: She started coughing, and a small commotion arose in the crowded hall.

Et: Nad aitasid Mareti kiiresti istuma, andsid talle vett ning rahustasid teda maha.
En: Tanel and Kaarel rushed to her aid.

Et: Peagi läks Mareti hingamine kergemaks, kuid ta tundis end ebamugavalt.
En: They quickly helped Maret to a seat, gave her water, and calmed her down.

Et: Selles osas polnud kahtlust – ta pidi lahkuma.
En: Soon, Maret was breathing easier, but she felt uncomfortable.

Et: Pettunud, kuid tänulik oma sõpradele, laskis Maret Tanelil ja Kaarelil end saatma parki, mis asus muuseumi taga.
En: There was no doubt—she had to leave.

Et: Nad kõndisid vaikuses, värske sügisõhk mõjus rahustavalt.
En: Disappointed, but grateful to her friends, Maret allowed Tanel and Kaarel to accompany her to the park behind the museum.

Et: Maret jäi korraks seisma, pöörates neile naeratuse.
En: They walked in silence, the fresh autumn air having a soothing effect.

Et: "Täna sain aru, et pean olema hoolikam oma tervise suhtes," ütles ta.
En: Maret paused for a moment, turning to them with a smile.

Et: "Aga kunst on alati osa minust.
En: "Today I realized I need to be more careful about my health," she said.

Et: Pean leidma viisi, kuidas nautida seda ilma reaktsioonideta.
En: "But art will always be a part of me.

Et: Siia saab alati tagasi tulla."
En: I have to find a way to enjoy it without reactions.

Et: Tanel ja Kaarel noogutasid ning toetasid teda mõistvalt.
En: I can always come back.” Tanel and Kaarel nodded and supported her with understanding.

Et: Sel sügispäeval õppis Maret, et kirg ja tervis peavad käima käsikäes.
En: On this autumn day, Maret learned that passion and health must go hand in hand.

Et: Kuigi täna polnud just selline päev, nagu ta lootis, tõotas see talle tuleviku osas uusi võimalusi.
En: Though today wasn't the day she had hoped for, it promised new opportunities for the future.
