Zagreb je bio prekriven snijegom, a svjetla grada bacala su čaroban sjaj po ulicama.
Zagreb was covered in snow, and the city lights cast a magical glow over the streets.
Ana je gledala kroz prozor svog stana, pored božićnog drvca, razmišljajući o godini koja je prošla.
Ana was looking through the window of her apartment, next to the Christmas tree, reflecting on the past year.
Dvije godine veze s Lukom bile su pune ljubavi, ali i izazova zbog udaljenosti.
Two years of a relationship with Luka were full of love but also challenges due to the distance.
Luka je bio u Splitu, gdje je zrak mirisao na more, a blaga zima donosila je tek lagani hlad.
Luka was in Split, where the air smelled of the sea, and the mild winter brought just a slight chill.
Imao je atelje u staroj gradskoj jezgri, gdje su kameni zidovi čuvali povijest Dalmatinske obale.
He had a studio in the old town core, where the stone walls held the history of the Dalmatian coast.
Volio je svoj grad, mjesto gdje su ljudi uvijek spremni na još jednu kašetu smija.
He loved his city, a place where people were always ready for another "kašeta smija."
Sada, s dolaskom nove godine, upitali su se: "Što dalje?
Now, with the arrival of the new year, they asked themselves, "What next?"
" Ana je voljela svoj posao u Zagrebu, karijera je napredovala, a prilike su bile neprocjenjive.
Ana loved her job in Zagreb, her career was progressing, and the opportunities were priceless.
Luka je bio vezan za Split, njegov dom, njegov atelje, njegov svijet.
Luka was tied to Split, his home, his studio, his world.
Dok su se pripremali za razgovor putem video poziva, srce im je bilo puno nade i straha.
As they prepared for a video call conversation, their hearts were full of hope and fear.
Na Staru godinu, usprkos udaljenosti, osjećali su blizinu jedno drugog.
On New Year's Eve, despite the distance, they felt close to each other.
Sat je otkucao ponoć, a nebo se rasprsnulo vatrometom.
The clock struck midnight, and the sky burst with fireworks.
Tv ekran pokazivao je prizore Zagreba i Splita u isto vrijeme.
The TV screen showed scenes of Zagreb and Split at the same time.
"Luka", reče Ana s osmijehom, "novi je početak.
"Luka," Ana said with a smile, "it's a new beginning.
Što ćemo učiniti u vezi selidbe?
What shall we do about moving?"
"Smireno, Luka duboko udahne.
Calmly, Luka took a deep breath.
"Ana, ne želim da napustiš svoje snove zbog mene.
"Ana, I don't want you to give up your dreams because of me.
Ali, ove godine mogli bismo pokušati više putovati jedno k drugome.
But, this year, we could try to travel to one another more."
"Ana kimne, oči joj svjetlucaju od suza i osmijeha.
Ana nodded, her eyes sparkling with tears and a smile.
"Hajde da vidimo kamo nas to vodi.
"Let's see where this takes us.
Možemo pokušati biti zajedno, posjećivati se češće.
We can try to be together, visit each other more often."
"Dogovor je bio postignut.
An agreement was reached.
Oboje su shvatili da kompromis i vrijeme mogu postati njihovi saveznici.
Both realized that compromise and time could become their allies.
Odlučili su da će svaka posjeta biti poput nove avanture, prilika za istraživanje i ljubav.
They decided that each visit would be like a new adventure, an opportunity for exploration and love.
Kako je zima polako prepuštala mjesto proljeću, Ana i Luka počeli su planirati posjete, uživajući u svakom trenutku.
As winter slowly gave way to spring, Ana and Luka began to plan visits, enjoying every moment.
Njihova veza, premda još uvijek razdvojena kilometrima, bila je jača nego ikada.
Their relationship, although still separated by kilometers, was stronger than ever.
Krajolik je možda bio različit, ali ono što su imali jedno u drugome bilo je neizmjerno vrijedno.
The landscape might have been different, but what they had in each other was infinitely valuable.
