Story Transcript:
Nl: De wind snerpte om het gebouw van Schiphol International Airport.
En: The wind howled around the building of Schiphol International Airport.
Nl: Regen druppelde tegen de grote glazen ramen.
En: Rain dripped against the large glass windows.
Nl: Het was herfst, en buiten was het guur.
En: It was autumn, and outside it was grim.
Nl: Binnen was het ook onrustig.
En: Inside, it was also restless.
Nl: Passagiers keken bezorgd om zich heen terwijl de luidsprekers omroepen: “Attention please, your flight is delayed due to adverse weather conditions.
En: Passengers looked around anxiously as the loudspeakers announced: "Attention please, your flight is delayed due to adverse weather conditions."
Nl: ”Bram zat op een van de ongemakkelijke stoelen in de vertrekhal.
En: Bram sat on one of the uncomfortable chairs in the departure hall.
Nl: Hij keek steeds op zijn horloge.
En: He kept checking his watch.
Nl: Binnen een paar uur had hij een belangrijke vergadering.
En: In a few hours, he had an important meeting.
Nl: Het zweet parelde op zijn voorhoofd.
En: Sweat beaded on his forehead.
Nl: "Wat als ik het niet haal?
En: "What if I don't make it?"
Nl: " dacht hij bij zichzelf.
En: he thought to himself.
Nl: Een paar rijen verderop zat Lieke.
En: A few rows away sat Lieke.
Nl: Ze droeg een shirt met een vrolijk, oranje pompoenontwerp.
En: She wore a shirt with a cheerful, orange pumpkin design.
Nl: Ze had gehoopt Halloween met haar familie te vieren.
En: She had hoped to celebrate Halloween with her family.
Nl: Nu leek het erop dat ze het zou moeten doen in de terminal of, als ze geluk had, tijdens de vlucht.
En: Now it seemed she might have to do it in the terminal or, if she was lucky, during the flight.
Nl: Maarten, een medewerker van de luchthaven, probeerde ondertussen kalm te blijven.
En: Maarten, an airport employee, was trying to stay calm in the meantime.
Nl: Hij had de taak om informatie te geven aan de passagiers.
En: He had the task of providing information to the passengers.
Nl: Mensen begonnen hun geduld te verliezen.
En: People were beginning to lose their patience.
Nl: Maarten kon de spanning voelen stijgen.
En: Maarten could feel the tension rising.
Nl: Plotseling besloot Bram dat hij alternatieven moest overwegen.
En: Suddenly, Bram decided he must consider alternatives.
Nl: Hij zocht op zijn telefoon naar andere vluchten of transportmiddelen.
En: He searched his phone for other flights or modes of transport.
Nl: Tegelijkertijd kreeg Lieke een idee.
En: At the same time, Lieke got an idea.
Nl: Zij begon te praten met de mensen om haar heen.
En: She began talking to the people around her.
Nl: "Laten we een Halloween-verhaalwedstrijd doen!
En: "Let's have a Halloween story contest!"
Nl: " stelde ze enthousiast voor.
En: she enthusiastically suggested.
Nl: De mensen om haar heen lachten en stemmen klonken opgewekt.
En: The people around her laughed, and cheerful voices filled the air.
Nl: Maarten merkte wat er gebeurde.
En: Maarten noticed what was happening.
Nl: Hij zag de opluchting die zich verspreidde door het voorstellen van Lieke.
En: He saw the relief spreading from Lieke's suggestion.
Nl: Maarten besloot actiever te worden.
En: Maarten decided to become more active.
Nl: Hij organiseerde een kleine activiteit voor de kleintjes in de vertrekhal.
En: He organized a small activity for the little ones in the departure hall.
Nl: Misschien zou een pompoen-tekenwedstrijd helpen om afleiding te bieden.
En: Perhaps a pumpkin drawing contest would help provide a distraction.
Nl: Langzaam maar zeker klaarde het weer op.
En: Slowly but surely, the weather cleared up.
Nl: De luchthaven begon weer op normale snelheid te draaien.
En: The airport started to operate at normal speed again.
Nl: "Dames en heren, er is een window beschikbaar voor ons vertrek.
En: "Ladies and gentlemen, there is a window available for our departure.
Nl: Bereid u alstublieft voor op het boarden," kondigde Maarten aan door de intercom.
En: Please prepare for boarding," Maarten announced over the intercom.
