Zakaj si to storil?" je vprašal, njegov glas je bil mešanica razočaranja in obupa.En: "Why, Jakob? Why did you do it?" he asked, his voice a mix of disappointment and despair.Sl: Jakob je odmaknil pogled, njegove oči so iskale izhod iz te zadušljive situacije.En: Jakob averted his gaze, his eyes searching for an escape from the stifling situation.Sl: "Nisem jaz kriv, Matej. Saj veš, kako je bilo. Nisem imel izbire."En: "It's not my fault, Matej. You know how it was. I had no choice."Sl: Matejeve oči so se zožile.En: Matej's eyes narrowed.Sl: "Vsak ima izbiro. Izbiraš med nami in med tem, kar si naredil."En: "Everyone has a choice. You choose between us and what you did."Sl: Ana, prijazna natakarica, ki je že mesece poznala oba, je stala ob pultu, srce ji je vznemirjeno utripalo.En: Ana, a kind waitress who had known them both for months, stood by the counter, her heart beating anxiously.Sl: Ni hotela izbrati strani, a videla je bolečino v Matejevih očeh.En: She didn't want to take sides, but she saw the pain in Matej's eyes.Sl: "Fantje," je začela, njen glas je bil tih, a odločen.En: "Boys," she began, her voice soft but resolute.Sl: "Morda... morda ni pravi trenutek za prepir.En: "Maybe... maybe it's not the right time for a quarrel.Sl: Poglejta, oba vaju poznam in oba sta mi mar."En: Look, I know you both, and I care for both of you."Sl: Matej je pogledal Ano, v njegovih očeh je bila iskra priznanja, vendar ni bil pripravljen odnehati.En: Matej looked at Ana, a spark of acknowledgment in his eyes, but he wasn't ready to give up.Sl: "Ana, moral bi vedeti resnico," je rekel.En: "Ana, I should know the truth," he said.Sl: V teh nekaj trenutkih tišine, ki so sledila, je bilo slišati le tiktakanje ure, in glasove drugih gostov, ki so v ozadju pomenkovali.En: In those moments of silence that followed, there was only the ticking of the clock and the voices of other guests conversing in the background.Sl: "Matej," je Ana zbrala pogum in stopila bližje.En: "Matej," Ana gathered her courage and stepped closer.Sl: "Morda bi moral vedeti, da Jakob ni bil edini vpleten v to zadevo.En: "You should know that Jakob wasn't the only one involved in this matter.Sl: Obstaja nekaj, kar ti nista povedala."En: There's something they haven't told you."Sl: Matejevo srce je preskočilo utrip.En: Matej's heart skipped a beat.Sl: Nenadoma so se stvari začele postavljati na svoje mesto.En: Suddenly, things began to fall into place.Sl: "Povej, Ana."En: "Tell me, Ana."Sl: Ana je nadaljevala, njene besede so bile obremenjene z resnico, ki jo je nosila.En: Ana continued, her words laden with the truth she carried.Sl: "Morda nisem prava oseba, da to povem, ampak... Jakob je bil prisiljen.En: "I may not be the right person to tell you this, but... Jakob was forced.Sl: Niso mu dali izbire."En: They gave him no choice."Sl: Jakob je tiho prikimal, hvaležnost je sijala iz njegovih oči.En: Jakob nodded silently, gratitude shining in his eyes.Sl: "Res je, Matej.En: "It's true, Matej.Sl: Nisem te hotel prizadeti.En: I never wanted to hurt you.Sl: Vedno si bil moj prijatelj."En: You have always been my friend."Sl: Matej je zaprl oči in vztrajal na robu odločitve, ki bo oblikovala njihovo prihodnost.En: Matej closed his eyes and lingered on the brink of a decision that would shape their future.Sl: V globini duše je začutil ranljivo krhkost prijateljstva, spoznal pa je tudi nekaj večjega – pomeni sprejeti ali zavrniti.En: Deep in his soul, he felt the fragile vulnerability of friendship but also recognized something greater—the choice to accept or reject.Sl: Po trenutku tišine je odprl oči.En: After a moment of ...
