Story Transcript:
Zh: 北京首都国际机场总是那么繁忙。
En: Beijing Capital International Airport is always so busy.
Zh: 人群匆匆忙忙，广播不断地播报着各航班的信息。
En: The crowd is bustling, and the announcements continuously broadcast information about various flights.
Zh: 门外，春天的樱花正在悄然绽放。
En: Outside, the spring cherry blossoms are quietly blooming.
Zh: 明宇站在出发口，他心里有些沉重。
En: Mingyu stands at the departure gate, with a heavy heart.
Zh: "嘉怡，行李都准备好了吗？" 明宇关切地问。
En: "Jiayi, is all your luggage ready?" Mingyu asked with concern.
Zh: 他是嘉怡的哥哥，一向把她照顾得无微不至。
En: He is Jiayi's older brother and has always taken care of her meticulously.
Zh: 嘉怡的手握紧了行李箱的把手，她微微点头，却没能掩饰内心的焦虑。
En: Jiayi gripped the handle of her suitcase tightly and nodded slightly, unable to hide her inner anxiety.
Zh: “准备好了。但我还是有些紧张，明宇哥。”
En: "I’m ready, but I’m still a bit nervous, Mingyu ge."
Zh: “不要怕。你一定可以。你的选择是对的。”
En: "Don’t be afraid. You can definitely do it. Your choice is the right one."
Zh: 明宇说这些话时，感觉到责任的重量。
En: Mingyu felt the weight of responsibility as he said these words.
Zh: 他知道，作为哥哥，必须鼓励她，而不是给她增加负担。
En: He knew that as an older brother, he had to encourage her instead of adding to her burden.
Zh: 嘉怡低下头，声音里有些歉意。
En: Jiayi lowered her head, her voice tinged with apology.
Zh: “我怕家人会失望。我怕他们觉得我离开不好。”
En: "I’m afraid the family will be disappointed. I’m afraid they'll think it's not good for me to leave."
Zh: 明宇伸出手，轻轻拍了拍嘉怡的肩膀。
En: Mingyu extended his hand and gently patted Jiayi's shoulder.
Zh: “嘉怡，家人都很支持你。去追求你的梦想，我们都会为你感到自豪。”
En: "Jiayi, the family is very supportive of you. Go pursue your dreams, and we’ll all be proud of you."
Zh: 嘉怡看着明宇，眼里有感激。
En: Jiayi looked at Mingyu, gratitude in her eyes.
Zh: “谢谢你，哥哥。我能勇敢出发，是因为有你在。”
En: "Thank you, brother. I can set off bravely because you’re here."
Zh: 终于，到了登机的时刻。
En: Finally, it was time to board.
Zh: 明宇深吸一口气，嘱咐道：“在国外要照顾好自己，记得常联系。相信自己，我们都会在这里支持你。”
En: Mingyu took a deep breath and advised, "Take good care of yourself abroad, remember to keep in touch often. Believe in yourself; we will all be here to support you."
Zh: 嘉怡重重地点了点头，透过登机口，她挥手告别。
En: Jiayi nodded heavily, waving goodbye through the boarding gate.
Zh: 那一刻，嘉怡满脸自信，她知道自己可以做到。
En: At that moment, her face was full of confidence, knowing she could do it.
Zh: 明宇看着妹妹的身影渐渐消失，他心中感到一丝宽慰。
En: Mingyu watched his sister's figure gradually disappear, feeling a sense of relief in his heart.
Zh: 机场依旧繁忙，但明宇心里却有了宁静。
En: The airport remained busy, but Mingyu felt a sense of peace.
Zh: 他知道自己的角色已然转变，从保护者到支持者。
En: He knew his role had changed, from protector to supporter.
Zh: 无论多远，家就是她永远的港湾。
En: No matter how far away, home would always be her harbor.
Zh: 嘉怡也在起飞的旅途中，带着哥哥的叮咛，迎接新的冒险。
En: Jiayi was also on her journey, carrying her brother’s words, ready to embrace new adventures.
Zh: 春天的樱花，在这时仿佛开得更加绚烂。
En: The spring cherry blossoms seemed to bloom even more brilliantly at this time.
