Matej asked her, hoping she would help.Sl: A Ana je imela v rokah telefon in na ekranu je bila fotografija garaže.En: But Ana had a phone in her hands, and on the screen, there was a photo of the garage.Sl: Jasno in svetlo je na njej sijala Matejeva nova modra kolesa.En: Bright and clear in the picture shone Matej's new blue bike.Sl: "Matej, tvoje kolo je ves čas bilo doma."En: "Matej, your bike has been at home all along."Sl: Matej je zardel, njegovi lici so postali rdeči kot tisti detajli na kolesu.En: Matej blushed, his cheeks turning as red as those details on the bike.Sl: Luka se ni mogel vzdržati in se je nasmejal.En: Luka couldn't help but laugh.Sl: "No, izgleda, da si do nas prišel po nepotrebnem, Matej," je dodal z iskrico v očeh.En: "Well, it seems you came to us unnecessarily, Matej," he added with a twinkle in his eye.Sl: Policijska postaja se je za trenutek napolnila z veselim smehom.En: The police station filled with cheerful laughter for a moment.Sl: Ana se je obrnila k Mateju in mu nežno rekla: "Morava malo bolj paziti."En: Ana turned to Matej and gently said, "We need to be a little more careful."Sl: Matej, čeprav sramoten, se je tudi sam nasmehnil.En: Despite his embarrassment, Matej also smiled.Sl: "Res je," je rekel.En: "That's true," he said.Sl: "Obljubim, da bom naslednjič bolj pozoren."En: "I promise I'll be more attentive next time."Sl: Kljub nerodnosti je spoznal, da se mora naučiti biti bolj prisoten v trenutku.En: Despite the awkwardness, he realized he needed to learn to be more present in the moment.Sl: Zadovoljni Matej je zapustil postajo skupaj z Ano, Luka pa je še vedno smehljivo zmajeval z glavo, ko je opazoval, kako se par oddaljuje skozi steklena vrata.En: A satisfied Matej left the station with Ana, while Luka still shook his head with a smile as he watched the pair walk away through the glass doors.Sl: V Ljubljani se spomladansko sonce ni več skrivalo za oblaki, in Matej je dobro vedel, da bo kolo spet njegovo najboljše prevozno sredstvo.En: In Ljubljana, the spring sun was no longer hiding behind the clouds, and Matej knew well that the bike would once again be his best mode of transportation.
