En: Rīgas International Airport looked like a forest of people in the autumn. Lv: Lapas ārpusē mainīja krāsas — sārtas, zelta, oranžas. En: The leaves outside were changing colors—crimson, gold, orange. Lv: Gājiens pie geita bija kā ceļojums caur dzīvību un steigu. En: The walk to the gate was like a journey through life and haste. Lv: Jānis sēdēja pie 25. geita, kur pasažieri pulcējās, gaidot savu lidojumu. En: Jānis sat by Gate 25, where passengers were gathering, waiting for their flight. Lv: Kaut kur tālumā tika paziņots vēl viens reiss, pa skaļruņiem skanot. En: Somewhere in the distance, another flight was announced, resounding through the loudspeakers. Lv: Pasažieri staigāja, vilkdamies līdzi bagāžu, kā arī izbaudīdami svaigo rudens elpu, kas caurvēja veidā ienāca caur atvērtajām lidostas durvīm. En: Passengers strolled, dragging their luggage along, also enjoying the fresh autumn air that entered as a draft through the open airport doors. Lv: Jānim iekšā risinājās cīņa. En: Inside Jānis, a battle was unfolding. Lv: Viņa rokas satvēra telefonu, un acis pārdomīgi vēroja ekrānant. En: His hands gripped the phone, and his eyes thoughtfully watched the screen. Lv: Viņam pieprasīja lēmumu. En: He was required to make a decision. Lv: Lēmumu, kas varētu mainīt viņa dzīvi. En: A decision that could change his life. Lv: Vai doties uz ārzemēm un pieņemt jauno darba piedāvājumu? En: Should he go abroad and accept the new job offer? Lv: Vai palikt Latvijā kopā ar ģimeni un draugiem, kur sirdssiltums vienmēr bija tuvu? En: Or stay in Latvijā with his family and friends, where warmth of heart was always close? Lv: Viņa sirds pukstēja arvien straujāk, un prāts spēlējās ar iespējām. En: His heart was pounding faster, and his mind was playing with possibilities. Lv: Tad Jānis uzrakstīja ziņu savai draudzenei Maijai: "Vai vari runāt?" En: Then Jānis wrote a message to his girlfriend Maija: "Can you talk?" Lv: Neilgi pēc tam telefons vibrēja. Maija zvana. En: Shortly after, the phone vibrated. Maija was calling. Lv: Viņa balss bija silta un nomierinoša. En: Her voice was warm and calming. Lv: "Hei, Jāni, kā iet?" viņa jautāja, zinot, ka šis lēmums nebija viegls. En: "Hey, Jāni, how are you?" she asked, knowing this decision wasn't easy. Lv: "Es... esmu lidostā," Jānis atbildēja, saprotot, ka viņam vajadzīgs atbalsts un padoms. En: "I'm... at the airport," Jānis replied, realizing he needed support and advice. Lv: "Es zinu, ka tas ir liels solis, bet atceries, kāpēc Tu to apdomā," Maija sacīja. En: "I know it's a big step, but remember why you're considering it," Maija said. Lv: "Neatkarīgi no Tava lēmuma, Tu vari saglabāt saiknes. En: "Regardless of your decision, you can maintain your connections. Lv: Ģimeni un draugus Tu vienmēr varēsi redzēt, pat ja būsi prom." En: You will always be able to see family and friends, even if you're away." Lv: Jānis klusēja, pievēršot acis logam, caur kuru varēja redzēt skrejceļu. En: Jānis stayed quiet, turning his eyes to the window, through which he could see the runway. Lv: Viņš dzirdēja Maijas sacīto. En: He listened to what Maija said. Lv: Pēdējais apziņas mirklis lika viņam...
