They began to eat, and the atmosphere was relaxed, filled with laughter and stories of Mikkel's latest adventures in the big city.Da: Men pludselig ændrede alt sig.En: But suddenly everything changed.Da: Signe begyndte at hoste voldsomt.En: Signe began to cough violently.Da: "Mor, jeg har det ikke godt," kvækkede hun og greb om sin hals.En: "Mom, I don't feel well," she croaked, grabbing her throat.Da: Frejas hjerte sprang et slag over.En: Freja's heart skipped a beat.Da: Allergiske reaktioner var ikke nyt for Signe, men det var sjældent de kom så pludseligt og voldsomt.En: Allergic reactions weren't new for Signe, but it was rare for them to come on so suddenly and violently.Da: "Mikkel!"En: "Mikkel!"Da: sagde Freja hastigt, "Ring til 112 nu!"En: said Freja hastily, "Call 112 now!"Da: Han sprang op fra sin stol og greb sin telefon, men han tøvede, da han indså, at han ikke kendte stedets adresse.En: He jumped up from his chair and grabbed his phone, but hesitated when he realized he didn't know the address of the place.Da: Freja forblev rolig, trods panikken der truede med at overmande hende.En: Freja remained calm, despite the panic threatening to overwhelm her.Da: "Det er på skærmen i entréen," instruerede hun, mens hun hurtigt tog fat i førstehjælpskassen.En: "It's on the screen in the entryway," she instructed, while quickly grabbing the first aid kit.Da:

the necessary treatment.Da: Freja kunne endelig trække vejret dybt igen.En: Freja could finally breathe deeply again.Da: Mens Signe blev stabiliseret, samledes alle omkring hende.En: As Signe was stabilized, everyone gathered around her.Da: Deres hjerter bankede stadig hurtigt, men der var en fælles følelse af lettelse.En: Their hearts were still racing, but there was a shared feeling of relief.Da: "Du klarede det godt, søs," sagde Mikkel stille og klappede Freja på skulderen.En: "You did well, sis," said Mikkel quietly, patting Freja on the shoulder.Da: Da de alle sad sammen efter lidt tid, mærkede Freja en ny styrke indeni sig selv.En: As they all sat together after a while, Freja felt a new strength within herself.Da: Forsamlingen, der engang bare skulle være en hyggelig middag, viste sig at være en stærk påmindelse om familie og det bånd, der binder dem.En: The gathering, which was once just meant to be a cozy dinner, turned out to be a strong reminder of family and the bond that ties them.Da: Mikkel talte tint om at blive i et par dage for at hjælpe til, og Freja vidste nu, at uanset udfordringerne, kunne de klare dem sammen.En: Mikkel spoke tentatively about staying for a few days to help out, and Freja now knew that no matter the challenges, they could face them together.Da: Aftenen blev indhyllet i efterårsbladene igen, men den kærlighed og beslutsomhed, der var vokset, lyste klart i deres lille hjem.En: The evening was enveloped in autumn leaves again, but the love and determination that had grown shone brightly in their little home.
