Speaker 3: The house smelled of coffee and candles.
Speaker 1: Al callandari, the la quina marcava unanz delfta di scusio

Speaker 3: The calendar in the kitchen marked a year since the
Speaker 3: big argument with her sister Layah.
Speaker 1: Aguelia Sabaracio la Culbashia, miss Amcadadilla Capasava.
Speaker 3: That separation hit her harder with each passing day.
Speaker 1: Alcorda la Julia astaba barzadr Ramurdi mins.
Speaker 3: Julia's heart was heavy with remorse.
Speaker 1: Are am levern kubrain bid al monacsterire centtia caviarivat almumen.
Speaker 3: Now, with winter coming alive in the outside world, she
Speaker 3: felt the time had come.
Speaker 1: Avilla ditendad truvaala Laya.
Speaker 3: She had to try to find Laya.
Speaker 1: Savia cala Seva Germana, trubaba Pao al Santuari the Mounserat.
Speaker 3: She knew her sister found peace at the Sanctuary de montserrat.
Speaker 1: I Totila inten sennavada La Julia baga fla seba Jacqueta,

Speaker 3: And despite the heavy snowfall, Julia put on her thickest jacket,
Speaker 3: her boots and decided to head there.
Speaker 1: La Carretera Estava impraticable.
Speaker 3: The road was impassable, als flocks the neu key and
Speaker 3: then samin A maranal camis sotun mantel vel isilan SIUs.
Speaker 3: Snowflakes fell densely, hiding the path under a white and
Speaker 3: silent blanket.

Speaker 3: Julian walked carefully, each step, weighing down on the fresh snow.
Speaker 1: Babeoa come al sims the munsarat sal saven al suda
Speaker 1: van maesusus isil and siuzus com guordiens the secret.
Speaker 3: She saw how the peaks of Montserrat rose before her,
Speaker 3: majestic and silent, like secret guardians.
Speaker 1: Abrusi mansel santuari, dracurds bagadas, Kaela la laya abi en
Speaker 1: visitatake mates look jugan intra larrocas ikum partin secret sotl
Speaker 1: selam play vlau.
Speaker 3: Approaching the sanctuary, she remembered the times she and Laya
Speaker 3: had visited that very place, playing among the rocks and
Speaker 3: sharing secrets under the wide blue sky.
Speaker 1: Ar numez lirastavals paranza theratruvala seva germana is senalas faridas
Speaker 1: del passett.
Speaker 3: Now she only had the hope of finding her sister
Speaker 3: and healing the wounds of the past.
Speaker 1: Quambarival la Cabella juliastavas utada.
Speaker 3: When she arrived at the chapel, Julia was exhausted.
Speaker 1: Asbatur ra unmumen parra kupar la le yella babla la laya.
Speaker 3: She stopped for a moment to catch her breath, and
Speaker 3: there she saw Laya.
Speaker 1: La seva germana estava, saruda oun bang am las manzentre
Speaker 1: le sadas parduda and al suzpan semends.
Speaker 3: Her sister was sitting on a bench, hands clasped together,
Speaker 3: lost in her thoughts.
Speaker 1: Labizu the la Julia dreta imch kunja lada baffeta alaya
Speaker 1: shakeez la vista sur praziva.
Speaker 3: The sight of Julia standing there, half frozen, caused Laya
Speaker 3: to look up in surprise.
Speaker 1: Alcilensisba intensifika numestrakat palshu shi wedged the standlwn fora la
Speaker 1: la capella.
Speaker 3: The silence intensified, only broken by the distant whisper of
Speaker 3: the wind outside the chapel.
Speaker 1: Ambalcor pican for Julia asba pruba boka boc.
Speaker 3: With her heart pounding, Julian approached slowly.
Speaker 1: Al suzul zsban tru ah plends the tantas paraulas nauditas.
Speaker 3: Their eyes met, full of so many unspoken words, La.
Speaker 1: Julia babar, la prime ambo tambl Rosa.
Speaker 3: Julia spoke first, her voice trembling.
Speaker 1: Laya ampardonas Lia.
Speaker 3: Do you forgive me?

Speaker 1: Since A parla las do germanez asvana rasa. The shan
Speaker 1: calls lagrimas fleu shuras funin al jel cavien akumulat and
Speaker 1: al siuskors duran lul Timan.
Speaker 3: Without speaking, the two sisters embraced, letting their tears flow freely,
Speaker 3: melting the ice that had gathered in their hearts over
Speaker 3: the past year.
Speaker 1: Asban mantani shi unas tuna and selensi gaudind al khalidra
Speaker 1: trubamen in tra la frascoda la capella.
Speaker 3: They stayed like this for a while, in silence, enjoying
Speaker 3: the warm reunion amidst the chill of the chapel.
Speaker 1: Finale men la la ja asba parta una mikha miran

Speaker 3: Finally, Liya pulled back a bit, looking at her sister
Speaker 3: with a slight smile.

Speaker 3: Shall we start over, she said, offering a new opportunity.

Speaker 3: They left the sanctuary arm in arm, knowing that the
Speaker 3: storms of that winter had brought them closer than ever,
Speaker 3: understanding that the power of forgiveness and vulnerability were their
Speaker 3: greatest allies.
Speaker 1: Al Scamenes navad the munsarat asban femes loges sutl suspeus

Speaker 3: The snowy pad of Montserrat became lighter under their feet,
Speaker 3: as the world shrouded in silence, the last steps of
Speaker 3: their shared destiny.
