Story Transcript:

Ga: Lá breá samhraidh a bhí ann i mBaile Átha Cliath.
En: It was a fine summer's day in Baile Átha Cliath.

Ga: Bhí Aoife agus Cillian i lár na huaire ina dhúisceacht.
En: Aoife and Cillian were wide awake in the middle of the day.

Ga: Bhí siad ag féachaint amach ar an mbaile ó fhuinneog mhór an ionaid nuálaíochta.
En: They were looking out over the city from the large window of the innovation center.

Ga: Bhí an áit lán le fuinneamh agus brionglóidí.
En: The place was full of energy and dreams.

Ga: Tháinig an solas gréine isteach, ag soiléiriú na ballaí.
En: The sunlight streamed in, illuminating the walls.

Ga: Bhí sé soiléir go raibh siad ag tabhairt faoi rud mór.
En: It was clear that they were embarking on something big.

Ga: Is d'iarmhac léinn chorparáideach í Aoife le blianta fada.
En: Aoife had been a former corporate student for many years.

Ga: Bhí sí cúramach.
En: She was cautious.

Ga: Bhí sí ag iarraidh macalla a n-uncail a choimeád beo trí rath a chur ar a ghnó.
En: She wanted to keep the echo of her uncle alive by making a success of his business.

Ga: Ach bhíodh Cillian bríomhar.
En: But Cillian was lively.

Ga: Bhí paisean aige don teicneolaíocht agus d’athraithe craiceáilte.
En: He had a passion for technology and crazy changes.

Ga: Bhí pleananna móra aige.
En: He had big plans.

Ga: "Inniu is lá tábhachtach é, a Chilliane," arsa Aoife, ag leanúint a bhóthar pleanáilte go cúramach.
En: "Today is an important day, Cillian," said Aoife, following her carefully planned path.

Ga: Ach bhí Cillian le sonrú.
En: But Cillian was noticeable.

Ga: "Tá rud iontach ullmhaithe agam, Aoife," ar sé.
En: "I have prepared something wonderful, Aoife," he said.

Ga: "Ach Conas? Níl airgead againn go leor fós," arsa Aoife.
En: "But how? We still don’t have enough money," said Aoife.

Ga: Bhí plean aici dul i bpáirt leis an dáimh mhór teicneolaíochta chun an brabús a dhaingniú.
En: She had a plan to partner with the major technology university to secure the profit.

Ga: Bhí Cillian ag obair i rún ar a chruth nua seo.
En: Cillian was working secretly on his new creation.

Ga: Bhí sé breá muiníneach as a chuid oibre.
En: He was quite confident in his work.

Ga: Nuair a bhí an lá mór cruinnithe leis na hinfheisteoirí ann, nocht aoife di a cuid tionscadal rúnda.
En: When the big day of the meeting with the investors arrived, Aoife revealed her secret projects.

Ga: "Seo é... seo an obair a bhí ar bun agat? Tá súil agam go n-éireoidh leat," arsa Aoife le mearbhall.
En: "Is this... this is the work you’ve been doing? I hope you succeed," Aoife said confusedly.

Ga: Bhí comhrá te i measc na beirte.
En: A heated conversation occurred between the two.

Ga: "An ceapann tú go n-oibreoidh an rud seo?" arsa sí.
En: "Do you think this thing will work?" she asked.

Ga: Ag an gcruinniú, bhí Cillian ag léiriú an phrótatóip le bród.
En: At the meeting, Cillian proudly displayed the prototype.

Ga: An t-am céanna, chuir Aoife an plean comhoibrithe i láthair.
En: At the same time, Aoife presented the collaboration plan.

Ga: Bhreathnaigh na hinfheisteoirí le suim.
En: The investors watched with interest.

Ga: "Bheinn ag iarraidh tuilleadh a fheiceáil," arsa ceann acu.
En:...
