Franjo Tuđman Airport bio je prepun ljudi unatoč hladnoj zimskoj atmosferi.

Franjo Tuđman Airport was crowded with people despite the chilly winter atmosphere.

Terminali su bili osvijetljeni svjetlima, a zrakom su odjekivale najave za letove.

The terminals were lit up with lights, and flight announcements echoed through the air.

Putnici su hodali u zimskim kaputima, vukući kofere po sjajnom podu.

Travelers walked in winter coats, dragging suitcases across the shiny floor.

Ivan je žurio, izvodeći gotovo maratonske korake.

Ivan was rushing, taking almost marathon-like steps.

Bio je poslovni čovjek koji je često putovao.

He was a businessman who traveled often.

Danas je imao važan sastanak u inozemstvu.

Today he had an important meeting abroad.

Srce mu je ubrzano kucalo, ali to je pripisivao žurbi.

His heart was racing, but he attributed it to the rush.

Nikada nije volio kasniti.

He never liked being late.

Marija je radila kao osoblje u zračnoj luci.

Marija worked as airport staff.

Osim što je pomagala putnicima, imala je obrazovanje iz medicinske sestre.

In addition to helping passengers, she had a nursing education.

Dan joj je bio uobičajen, sve dok nije primijetila Ivana kako se oslanja na stup.

Her day was typical until she noticed Ivan leaning against a column.

Njegovo lice bilo je blijedt i izgledao je kao da mu nije dobro.

His face was pale, and he looked like he was not well.

Ivan je zastao da uhvati dah.

Ivan paused to catch his breath.

Prsa su ga boljela.

His chest hurt.

Posumnjao je da je to samo nervoza, ali bol se pogoršavala.

He suspected it was just nerves, but the pain was worsening.

Znao je da nešto nije u redu, ali nije mogao propustiti sastanak.

He knew something was wrong, but he couldn't miss the meeting.

Marija se približila s toplim osmijehom, ali s brigom u očima.

Marija approached with a warm smile but with concern in her eyes.

"Izgledaš loše, treba li ti pomoć?" pitala ga je.

"You look unwell, do you need help?" she asked him.

Ivan ju je odbijao, pokušavajući izgledati kao da je sve u redu.

Ivan refused, trying to appear as if everything was fine.

"Malo se samo moram odmoriti... ali ipak hvala," rekao je kroz zube.

"I just need to rest a little... but thanks anyway," he said through gritted teeth.

Marija nije bila uvjerena.

Marija wasn't convinced.

Vidjela je kako njegovo lice postaje sve bljeđe.

She saw his face growing paler.

"Mislim da bi to trebali provjeriti," nastavila je nježno.

"I think you should have it checked," she continued gently.

"Ne želim biti naporna, ali zdravlje je najvažnije."

"I don't mean to be pushy, but health is the most important thing."

Iznenada, Ivan se srušio.

Suddenly, Ivan collapsed.

Ljudi oko njega su se razmaknuli, gledajući sa zabrinutošću.

People around him stepped back, watching with concern.

Marija je brzo reagirala, kleknuvši do njega i započevši mjere prve pomoći.

Marija quickly reacted, kneeling beside him and starting first aid measures.

Brzo je pozvala hitnu pomoć.

She promptly called an ambulance.

Dok je čekala dolazak medicinskog tima, Marija je držala Ivana za ruku i uvjeravala ga da će sve biti u redu.

While waiting for the medical team to arrive, Marija held Ivan's hand, assuring him that everything would be okay.

Ivan ju je slabo pogledao, shvaćajući ozbiljnost situacije.

Ivan looked at her weakly, realizing the seriousness of the situation.

"Hvala ti," šapnuo je jedva čujno.

"Thank you," he whispered faintly.

Ubrzo je stigla hitna pomoć i odvezli su Ivana u bolnicu.

Soon the ambulance arrived and took Ivan to the hospital.

Iako je propustio let, bio je zahvalan Mariji što je intervenirala.

Although he missed his flight, he was grateful to Marija for intervening.

Dok je ležao u bolničkom krevetu, Ivan je razmišljao o svom životu.

As he lay in the hospital bed, Ivan reflected on his life.

Shvatio je da mora bolje brinuti o sebi.

He realized he needed to take better care of himself.

Kontaktirao je Mariju, rekavši joj: "Želim ti zahvaliti iz srca.

He contacted Marija, telling her, "I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Ne bih bio ovdje bez tebe."

I wouldn't be here without you."

Marija se nasmijala s druge strane linije.

Marija laughed on the other end of the line.

"Uvijek ću pomoći kad mogu.

"I'll always help whenever I can.

Samo čuvaj sebe."

Just take care of yourself."

Na kraju, Ivan je naučio važnu lekciju.

In the end, Ivan learned an important lesson.

Zdravlje je uvijek na prvom mjestu.

Health always comes first.

Marija je bila ponosna na svoj posao i na ono što je postigla tog dana.

Marija was proud of her job and what she had accomplished that day.

Pomogla je, i to je bio njen cilj.

She helped, and that was her goal.

Njihovi se putovi možda nisu ponovno susreli, ali među njima je ostala veza zahvalnosti i nove životne mudrosti.

Their paths might not have crossed again, but between them remained a bond of gratitude and newfound life wisdom.

Franjo Tuđman Airport nastavio je s užurbanim tempom, ali za Ivana i Mariju, taj dan je ostao nezaboravan.

Franjo Tuđman Airport continued at its hectic pace, but for Ivan and Marija, that day remained unforgettable.
