Story Transcript:
Nb: Sola skinte inn gjennom vinduene i klasserommet.
En: The sun shone through the windows of the classroom.
Nb: Det var en varm sommerdag, og alle elevene gledet seg til ferien.
En: It was a warm summer day, and all the students were looking forward to the vacation.
Nb: På tavlen stod det store bokstaver: "PRESENTASJONER I DAG."
En: On the blackboard, there were big letters: "PRESENTATIONS TODAY."
Nb: Blant de mange plakatene på veggene, fylt med vitenskapelige fakta og motivasjonsord, satt Eirik og stirret nervøst ned på føttene sine.
En: Among the many posters on the walls, filled with scientific facts and motivational words, sat Eirik nervously staring down at his feet.
Nb: Eirik hadde på seg to forskjellige sko.
En: Eirik was wearing two different shoes.
Nb: Den ene var rød, og den andre blå.
En: One was red, and the other was blue.
Nb: Han hadde ikke lagt merke til det før han satt på skolebussen.
En: He hadn't noticed it until he got on the school bus.
Nb: Han kjente hjertet dunke hardt.
En: He felt his heart pounding hard.
Nb: Hvordan kunne han gi en presentasjon når han så sånn ut?
En: How could he give a presentation looking like this?
Nb: "Elin," hvisket han og dro i armen til sin beste venn.
En: "Elin," he whispered, tugging at his best friend's arm.
Nb: Elin, som alltid visste hva han skulle si, smilte varmt til ham.
En: Elin, who always knew what to say, smiled warmly at him.
Nb: "Hva skjer?"
En: "What's up?"
Nb: "Se," sa Eirik og pekte ned.
En: "Look," said Eirik, pointing down.
Nb: Elin begynte å le, men stoppet raskt da hun så hvor bekymret Eirik var.
En: Elin began to laugh but quickly stopped when she saw how worried Eirik was.
Nb: "Ta det med ro, Eirik.
En: "Don't worry, Eirik.
Nb: Dette ordner vi," sa hun.
En: We'll sort this out," she said.
Nb: Eirik vurderte å gjemme seg bak pulten eller be læreren om å utsette presentasjonen.
En: Eirik considered hiding behind the desk or asking the teacher to postpone his presentation.
Nb: Men noe inni ham sa at han måtte møte situasjonen med mot.
En: But something inside him told him he needed to face the situation with courage.
Nb: Kanskje, hvis han gjorde narr av seg selv først, ville ingen andre gjøre det?
En: Maybe, if he made fun of himself first, no one else would.
Nb: Klassen summet av prat da læreren, fru Hansen, ba om stillhet.
En: The class buzzed with chatter when the teacher, Mrs. Hansen, asked for silence.
Nb: "Eirik, du er neste," sa hun.
En: "Eirik, you're next," she said.
Nb: Eirik reiste seg sakte, følte blikkene på seg.
En: Eirik stood up slowly, feeling the eyes on him.
Nb: Da han kom frem, stilte han seg bak kateteret så ingen kunne se føttene hans.
En: When he reached the front, he positioned himself behind the teacher’s desk so no one could see his feet.
Nb: "Heisann, alle sammen," begynte Eirik.
En: "Hello, everyone," Eirik began.
Nb: "Jeg vet dere alle lurer på hvorfor jeg står bak kateteret.
En: "I know you're all wondering why I'm standing behind the desk.
Nb: Vel, her er en liten hemmelighet."
En: Well, here's a little secret."
Nb: Han tok et skritt fram og viste skoene sine.
En: He stepped forward and showed his shoes.
Nb: Klassen brøt ut i latter, men ikke den slemme typen.
En: The class burst into laughter, but it wasn’t mean-spirited.
Nb: Det var en varm latter, og Eirik smilte.
En: It was warm laughter, and Eirik smiled.
Nb: "Ja, jeg tok visst feil sko i dag," fortsatte han med et glimt i øyet.
En: "Yes, I ended up wearing mismatched shoes today," he continued with a twinkle in his eye.
Nb: "Men la oss gå videre til presentasjonen min, som ikke handler om sko, men om stjernene."
En: "But let's get to my presentation, which is not about shoes, but about stars."
Nb: Han begynte å forklare sitt prosjekt.
En: He began explaining his project.
Nb: Med hvert ord vokste selvtilliten hans, og til slutt klappet hele klassen.
En: With each word, his confidence grew, and by the end, the whole class was clapping.
Nb: Da det var over, kom noen av klassekameratene bort og klappet ham på skulderen.
En: When it was over, some classmates came over and patted him on the shoulder.
Nb: "Bra jobba, Eirik!"
En: "Great job, Eirik!"
Nb: sa noen.
En: some said.
Nb: Og så kom hans store hemmelige forelskelse bort til ham.
En: And then his big secret crush came up to him.
Nb: "Det var morsomt og modig av deg," sa hun med et smil.
En: "That was funny and brave of you," she said with a smile.
Nb: Eirik kunne ikke tro det.
En: Eirik couldn't believe it.
Nb: Elin nikket til ham, og Eirik følte noe nytt inni seg.
En: Elin nodded at him, and Eirik felt something new inside him.
Nb: Selvtillit.
En: Confidence.
Nb: Utenfor skolen, under den strålende solen, visste Eirik at han kunne takle hva som helst.
En: Outside the school, under the brilliant sun, Eirik knew he could handle anything.
Nb: Sko av forskjellig farge eller ikke, han var klar for sommeren og alt den kunne by på.
En: Different colored shoes or not, he was ready for summer and everything it could offer.
Nb: Slik lærte Eirik at å eie sine feil og le av seg selv kan være veien til ekte selvsikkerhet og tilkobling med andre.
En: That's how Eirik learned that owning your mistakes and laughing at yourself can be the path to true confidence and connection with others.
