En: It was a quiet, cool autumn evening at the Danish dormitory. Da: Halloween festlighederne var i fuld gang. En: The Halloween festivities were in full swing. Da: Loftet var dekoreret med spindelvæv og grinende græskar, mens lyden af musik og latter strømmede gennem de dunkle gange. En: The ceiling was decorated with cobwebs and grinning pumpkins, while the sound of music and laughter flowed through the dim corridors. Da: Maja, som elskede at planlægge, havde gjort dette til den bedste fest på kollegiet nogensinde. En: Maja, who loved organizing, had made this the best party at the dormitory ever. Da: Hun vandrede rundt, iført en heksekostume, og sikrede sig, at alle havde det sjovt. En: She wandered around, dressed in a witch costume, ensuring that everyone was having fun. Da: "Kom nu, Anders," sagde Freja. En: "Come on, Anders," said Freja. Da: Hun holdt sin ven fast i armen, lidt bekymret for, at han ville snige sig væk. En: She held her friend firmly by the arm, a little worried that he would sneak away. Da: "Du bliver nødt til at komme ud af din skal." En: "You need to come out of your shell." Da: Anders, klædt i en simpel vampyrdragt, følte sig akavet. En: Anders, dressed in a simple vampire costume, felt awkward. Da: Han ønskede at være en del af fællesskabet, men det var altid svært at tage det første skridt. En: He wanted to be a part of the community, but taking the first step was always hard.

Da: Freja bemærkede hans uro og gav hans hånd et støttende klem. En: Freja noticed his unease and gave his hand a supportive squeeze. Da: Maja spottede dem fra den anden side af rummet og vinkede dem over. En: Maja spotted them from the other side of the room and waved them over. Da: "Hej Anders! En: "Hey Anders!

Da: Hendes ord var venlige, og de gav Anders en smule mod. En: Her words were kind and gave Anders a little courage. Da: Men han vidste, at menneskemængden var en udfordring. En: But he knew the crowd was a challenge. Da: Da aftenen skred frem, blev musikken lavere, og folk begyndte at søge mod midten for at høre en historie. En: As the evening progressed, the music got lower, and people began to gather toward the center to hear a story. Da: Maja gav Anders et opmuntrende nik. En: Maja gave Anders an encouraging nod.
