Story Transcript:
Lv: Karstais Rīgas vasaras rīts.
En: A hot summer morning in Riga.
Lv: Mākoņi šļakstās debesīs, un saule lēj savas zeltainās gaismas pār Vecpilsētas jumtiem.
En: Clouds splashed across the sky, and the sun poured its golden light over the rooftops of the Old Town.
Lv: Kaimiņos, rožu dārzos un mazos pagalmos, iedzīvotāji gatavojās nākamajam mācību gadam.
En: In the neighboring areas, rose gardens, and small courtyards, residents were preparing for the upcoming school year.
Lv: Kārlis, Elīza un Māris sēdēja parkā uz soliņa.
En: Karlis, Eliza, and Maris sat on a park bench.
Lv: Kārlis bija pārdomās. Viņa skatiens bija pievērsts tālumā.
En: Karlis was deep in thought, his gaze fixed on the distance.
Lv: "Es gribu studēt ārzemēs," viņš beidzot sacīja.
En: "I want to study abroad," he finally said.
Lv: "Bet es nezinu, vai es varu."
En: "But I don't know if I can."
Lv: Elīza pasmaidīja, bet viņas acīs bija redzamas šaubas.
En: Eliza smiled, but doubt was visible in her eyes.
Lv: "Tev viss izdosies, Kārlīt," viņa teica.
En: "You will succeed, Karlis," she said.
Lv: "Bet... vai tu mums pietrūksi?"
En: "But... will you miss us?"
Lv: Māris, kurš tikko sācis dzīvot šajā apkārtnē, izskatījās nesaprotami.
En: Maris, who had just started living in the neighborhood, looked confused.
Lv: "Studēt ārzemēs ir lieliska iespēja," viņš teica klusi.
En: "Studying abroad is a great opportunity," he said quietly.
Lv: "Bet arī grūti."
En: "But also difficult."
Lv: Parka malā bija mājas ar ziediem pie logiem un saldējuma kiosks, kur bērni pirka saldējumu.
En: At the park's edge, there were houses with flowers at the windows and an ice cream kiosk where children bought ice cream.
Lv: Mākoņi lēnām pārvietojās pie debesīm.
En: Clouds slowly drifted across the sky.
Lv: Kārlis zināja, ka viņam ir pieņemama lēmuma.
En: Karlis knew he had to make a decision.
Lv: Viņš nolēma piedalīties esejas konkursā, kas varētu viņam dot stipendiju.
En: He decided to participate in an essay contest that could earn him a scholarship.
Lv: "Es darīšu to," viņš sacīja.
En: "I will do it," he said.
Lv: "Bet man būs jācīnās.
En: "But I will have to fight.
Lv: Tas būs mans pēdējais vasarā ar jums."
En: This will be my last summer with you."
Lv: Elīza pielika roku uz viņa pleca.
En: Eliza put a hand on his shoulder.
Lv: "Mēs ticam tev," viņa teica.
En: "We believe in you," she said.
Lv: "Un mēs būsim šeit, kad tev vajadzēs atelpu."
En: "And we will be here when you need a break."
Lv: Māris pamāja ar galvu.
En: Maris nodded.
Lv: "Te būs vieta, kur tu vienmēr tiksi sagaidīts," viņš sacīja.
En: "There will always be a place here for you," he said.
Lv: Dienas aizritēja kā vējš.
En: The days flew by like the wind.
Lv: Kārlis rakstīja un pārrakstīja savu eseju.
En: Karlis wrote and rewrote his essay.
Lv: Viņam trūka miega, bet viņš turpināja.
En: He lacked sleep, but he kept going.
Lv: Elīza un Māris bieži apciemoja viņu, atvedot uzmundrinošus vārdus un iemīļotus uzkodas.
En: Eliza and Maris often visited him, bringing encouraging words and favorite snacks.
Lv: Pienāca diena, kad tika paziņoti konkursa rezultāti.
En: The day came when the contest results were announced.
Lv: Visi apkārtējie satikās skolas lielajā zālē, kur bija izlikti rezultāti.
En: Everyone gathered in the school's main hall, where the results were posted.
Lv: Kārlis lasīja savu vārdu uzvarētāju sarakstā.
En: Karlis read his name on the list of winners.
Lv: Uzvaras sajūta bija milzīga.
En: The feeling of victory was immense.
Lv: "Man ir!" viņš iesaucās un apskāva Elīzu.
En: "I did it!" he exclaimed and hugged Eliza.
Lv: Bet viņa sirds bija smaga.
En: But his heart was heavy.
Lv: Viņam būtu jāatstāj mājas, draugi, ģimene.
En: He would have to leave home, friends, family.
Lv: Staigājot pa pazīstamajām ielām ar Elīzu un Māri, Kārlis saprata, ka mīlestība pret šīm vietām un cilvēkiem paliks viņā.
En: Walking through the familiar streets with Eliza and Maris, Karlis realized that his love for these places and people would stay with him.
Lv: "Es atgriezīšos," viņš sacīja.
En: "I will return," he said.
Lv: "Un mēs tevi gaidīsim," Elīza atbildēja.
En: "And we will be waiting for you," Eliza replied.
Lv: Bijis grūti, bet Kārlis saprata, ka viņš var līdzsvarot savas kandidatūras ar dārgām attiecībām.
En: It was difficult, but Karlis understood that he could balance his ambitions with cherished relationships.
Lv: Un viņš nolēma, ka viņa sirds vienmēr būs šeit, šajā krāsainajā ielā ar draugiem, kas viņu atbalsta.
En: And he decided that his heart would always remain here, on this colorful street with friends who support him.
