No: Hun hadde tilbrakt mye tid på reise og gledet seg til å komme hjem for påsken.

No: Påskedekorasjonene rundt dem strålte i gult og grønt, og hun merket at de var et hyggelig bakteppe for en samtale.
En: The Easter decorations around them shone in yellow and green, and she noticed they made a pleasant backdrop for a conversation.

No: De utvekslet høfligheter om reisen, og Ingrid spurte etter hvert hvorfor han var på vei til Tromsø.

No: Ingrid, som kunne relatere gjennom sin egen frykt for ensomhet, lyttet oppmerksomt.

No: "Ingen familie er perfekt, tror jeg," sa Ingrid med et glimt i øyet.
En: "No family is perfect, I think," said Ingrid with a twinkle in her eye.

No: "Men vi har alltid muligheten til å forsøke å forstå hverandre bedre.
En: "But we always have the opportunity to try to understand each other better."

No: ""Du har rett," svarte Sindre.
En: "You're right," Sindre replied.

No: "Kanskje det er det som er viktigst – å være villig til å prøve.
En: "Maybe that's what's most important—to be willing to try."

No: "Da de endelig hørte at flyet nå var klart for boarding, reiste de seg sammen.
