Pozrite, je tu!“ zvolal víťazne, účtenke ako dôkazom, že tepotu kúpil len ten mesiac v obchodnom dome.En: "Aha! Look, here it is!" he exclaimed triumphantly, with the receipt as proof that he had bought the teapot just that month at a department store.Sk: Jana pozrela na účtenku a rozosmiala sa.En: Jana looked at the receipt and burst into laughter.Sk: „Marek, ty si skutočný tajný Ježišek, aj bez darčeka," povedala uvoľnene a priateľsky ho potľapkala po pleci.En: "Marek, you are a real Secret Santa, even without a gift," she said, relaxed and gave him a friendly pat on the shoulder.Sk: „Prepáč, mala som veriť, že si už do Vianoc aspoň raz zorganizuješ veci!“En: "Sorry, I should have believed that you’d organize your things at least once before Christmas!"Sk: Lucia neskrývala úsmev.En: Lucia couldn't hide her smile.Sk: Radostne sa pripojila k priateľskému rozhovoru s tanierikom škoricových vianočných koláčikov.En: She joyfully joined the friendly conversation with a plate of cinnamon Christmas cookies.Sk: „To je na oslavu! Všetko dobre dopadlo,“ oznámila sladkým hlasom.En: "This calls for a celebration! Everything turned out well," she announced in a sweet voice.Sk: S úsmevmi a teplým čajom si Marek, Jana a Lucia užili zvyšok popoludnia.En: With smiles and warm tea, Marek, Jana, and Lucia enjoyed the rest of the afternoon.Sk: Mimo okna poletovali vločky, zdobili sklenené tabule drobnými bielymi kvietkami.En: Outside the window, snowflakes twirled, decorating the glass panes with tiny white flowers.Sk: Túto zimu Marek sľúbil, že bude opatrnejší.En: This winter, Marek promised to be more careful.Sk: Zrazu si spomenul, kde Jana tepotu zanechala, a bol rozhodnutý navštíviť svoju kanceláriu hneď, ako sneženie polaví.En: He suddenly remembered where Jana had left the teapot and was determined to visit his office as soon as the snowfall eased.Sk: Vtedy vnímal, aké sú drobnosti dôležité a ako ľahko sa môžu malé nedorozumenia meniť na niečo vtipné.En: He realized how important little things are and how easily small misunderstandings can turn into something funny.Sk: Vianoce v Bratislave boli vždy plné príbehov, no tento sa im zapísal do duší ako krásna lekcia o priateľstve a majetku.En: Christmas in Bratislava was always full ...
