En: The cabin of Karol and Zuzana lay like a picturesque refuge embraced by the majestic Tatra Mountains. Sk: Veľké smreky, pokryté jemným popraškom snehu, vytvárali čarovnú atmosféru. En: Tall spruce trees, covered with a light dusting of snow, created a magical atmosphere. Sk: Jeseň sa zahalila do zlata a červene, a v diaľke bolo počuť šumenie malého jazera. En: Autumn was cloaked in gold and red, and in the distance, the rustling of a small lake could be heard. Sk: Karol a Zuzana dorazili v piatok večer. En: Karol and Zuzana arrived on Friday evening. Sk: Ich očakávania na víkend plný turistiky a relaxu boli veľké. En: Their expectations for a weekend full of hiking and relaxation were high. Sk: Karol, unavený stresom v práci, dúfal, že po dlhej dobe pocíti pokoj. En: Karol, weary from work stress, hoped to feel peace after a long time. Sk: Zuzana, stále sa zotavujúca z rozchodu, túžila po chvíli ticha a premýšľaní. En: Zuzana, still recovering from a breakup, yearned for a moment of silence and reflection. Sk: V sobotu ráno sa obaja vydali na túru. En: On Saturday morning, both set out on a hike. Sk: Vzduch bol chladný, ale osviežujúci. En: The air was cold but refreshing. Sk: Karol kráčal s istotou skúseného turistu. En: Karol walked with the confidence of an experienced hiker. Sk: Zuzana, s niekoľkými pochybnosťami, ho nasledovala. En: Zuzana, with some doubts, followed him. Sk: Cesta viedla okolo smrečín a pod nánosmi žlto-červeného lístia sršala energiu jesene. En: The path led them around spruce woods, and under the layers of yellow and red leaves, autumn's energy buzzed. Sk: Ako postupovali, počasie sa začalo meniť. En: As they progressed, the weather started to change. Sk: Vietor zosilnel a obloha sa zatiahla. En: The wind grew stronger and the sky darkened. Sk: Sneh začal padať hustejšie a cesta bola čoraz nejasnejšia. En: Snow began to fall more heavily, and the path became increasingly indistinct. Sk: Zuzana sa zastavila a s obavou pozrela na Karola. En: Zuzana stopped and looked at Karol with concern. Sk: „Možno by sme sa mali vrátiť,“ povedala tichým hlasom. En: "Maybe we should turn back," she said quietly. Sk: Karol zamrmlal, že ešte chvíľu pôjdu. En: Karol mumbled that they would go on for a bit longer. Sk: Jeho túžba po pokoji ho viedla vpred, aj keď pochybnosti si zlomkom mysle uvedomoval. En: His desire for peace drove him forward, though he was faintly aware of his doubts. Sk: Ako sneh padal intenzívnejšie, aj Karol si priznal, že situácia je vážnejšia, než čakal. En: As the snow fell more intensely, Karol admitted that the situation was more serious than he had expected. Sk: Začali mať problémy s orientáciou. En: They started having trouble with orientation. Sk: Terén sa zneprístupňoval a obidvaja sa ocitli bezradní na ceste, ktorú nie je možné vrátiť na začiatok. En: The terrain became impassable, and both found themselves helpless on a path they couldn't retrace. Sk: „Počkaj,“ povedal Karol, teraz už viditeľne nervózny.
