Bhí an ghrian ag taitneamh trí fhuinneoga móra na caifé i gCathair na Gaillimhe.
The sun was shining through the large windows of the café in Cathair na Gaillimhe.
Bhí boladh breá ar an gcaife úr a bhí á ghrú ag feadh an áirse na gcoillte.
There was a lovely smell of fresh coffee being brewed throughout the arch of the woods.
Mhothaigh Emer teasa an tsamhraidh agus chuala sí an cúlghuthán milis de chomhráite timpeall uirthi.
Emer felt the summer warmth and heard the sweet background murmur of conversations around her.
Bhí sí ag suí gar do fuinneog, ag roinnt tolg le Cathal, cara dílis.
She was sitting near the window, sharing a couch with Cathal, a loyal friend.
Bhí Lughnasa ar an bhféilire, agus mhothaigh sult na féile san aer.
Lughnasa was on the calendar, and the joy of the festival was in the air.
Ba ghnáthlá do Emer, ag obair gan stad, ag iarraidh dul chun cinn ina gairm phreasa.
It was an ordinary day for Emer, working tirelessly, striving to advance her career in journalism.
Ach láithreach, tháinig meadhrán uirthi, agus tháinig éagothroime ar a análú.
But suddenly, she felt dizzy, and her breathing became unsteady.
Cheap sí go mbeadh sé ceart go leor. "Tá mé ceart go leor, Cathal," a dúirt sí, agus í féin ag iarraidh a bheith suaimhneach.
She thought she would be okay. "I'm fine, Cathal," she said, trying to stay calm.
Bhí Cathal, a bhí ag obair mar bharista anseo le tamall, an-bhuartha.
Cathal, who had been working as a barista here for a while, was very worried.
Cé gur bhí a aisling féin aige — oscailt a chaifé — bhí sé an-bhuartha faoi Emer.
Even though he had his own dream — to open his own café — he was very concerned about Emer.
Dúirt sé go cúramach, "Emer, b'fhéidir gur chóir duit dul go dtí an dochtúir."
He carefully said, "Emer, maybe you should go to the doctor."
Níor theastaigh ó Emer aon ama a chur amú. "Níl an am agam," arsa sí go dithneasach.
Emer didn't want to waste any time. "I don't have time," she said impatiently.
Ach chonaic Cathal go raibh rud éigin amiss, agus fós ghoill air í a thabhairt chun ciall.
But Cathal could see something was amiss, and it troubled him to bring her to her senses.
Tar éis cúpla nóiméad eile, gan choinne, tháinig pioc i láthair na hoifige.
After a few more moments, unexpectedly, a faint spell occurred.
Thit Emer chun talamh agus scaoil an cupán caife léi ar an urlár.
Emer collapsed to the ground, dropping her coffee cup to the floor.
Bhí eagla ar sheomra na caifé go léirite, ach ghlaoigh Cathal ar sheirbhísigh éigeandála láithreach.
The café room was frightened, but Cathal immediately called emergency services.
Tá súil dola ag an ócáid seo, agus chomh luath agus a thug na freagróirí éigeandála Emer chun na hospidéil, tháinig a ciall ar ais.
This event took its toll, and as soon as the emergency responders brought Emer to the hospital, she regained her senses.
Thuig sí gur mhór an rud a raibh ag teacht; bhí sé in am aire níos fearr a thabhairt di féin.
She realized that something significant was happening; it was time to take better care of herself.
Nuair a thugtar go léir ceart, chuaigh Emer chun Cinn a Agallaimh ar lámh le Cathal, mar a bhí sé ag tús bainistíochta, ach anois le léiriú nua ar shláinte.
Once everything was alright, Emer went to Cinn a Agallaimh hand in hand with Cathal, like it was at the beginning of management, but now with a renewed understanding of health.
"Go raibh maith agat, Cathal," a dúirt sí.
"Thank you, Cathal," she said.
D'fhoghlaim Emer an ceacht is tabhachtaí di féin: an tábhacht a bhaineann le cothromaíocht idir an obair agus an bheatha phearsanta.
Emer learned the most important lesson for herself: the importance of balance between work and personal life.
Bheartaigh sí measúnú nua a thabhairt dá sláinte, gan dochar a dhéanamh dá gairm.
She decided to reassess her health, without compromising her career.
Agus Cathal, le feabhas as a fheictearacht agus as a chúram, bhí airde níos mó aige anois maidir le cuidiú le daoine eile agus bhí sé níos diongbháilte ná riamh an caifé a oscailt ina raibh spiorad cúraim agus cairdis léirithe.
And Cathal, with his charm and care, was now more attentive to helping others and more determined than ever to open the café where the spirit of care and friendship would be evident.
Agus mar sin, bhí a n-aistear ag leanúint, le grá, le faoiseamh agus le meon dearfach i ngrámhar sa chathair bhreá Gaillimhe.
And so, their journey continued, with love, relief, and a positive attitude in the beautiful city of Gaillimh.
