Sk: Jakub sedel pri stole pri okne.
En: Jakub sat at a table by the window.

Sk: Pred sebou mal notebook.
En: He had a laptop in front of him.

Sk: Sústredene pozeral na obrazovku.
En: He stared intently at the screen.

Sk: Vedľa neho sedela Anna.
En: Next to him sat Anna.

Sk: Bola plná energie a radostí, no Jakub bol nervózny.
En: She was full of energy and joy, but Jakub was nervous.

Sk: Dnes je ten deň, pomyslel si Jakub.
En: Today is the day, Jakub thought.

Sk: Musím urobiť dojem.
En: I need to make an impression.

Sk: Hlavne na Annu.
En: Especially on Anna.

Sk: Jakub bol starší študent strednej školy.
En: Jakub was an older high school student.

Sk: Bol vášnivý pre technológie, ale často mu chýbalo sebavedomie.
En: He was passionate about technology, but he often lacked confidence.

Sk: Chcel získať štipendium za svoj technologický projekt.
En: He wanted to win a scholarship for his technology project.

Sk: A sprevádzala ho jeho spolužiačka Anna.
En: And his classmate Anna was accompanying him.

Sk: Anna bola príjemná a priateľská.
En: Anna was pleasant and friendly.

Sk: Jakuba fascinovala jej odvaha a sebadôvera.
En: Jakub was fascinated by her courage and confidence.

Sk: Dúfal, že ju jeho projekt zaujme.
En: He hoped his project would interest her.

Sk: Jakub, potrebuješ niečo pomôcť? spýtala sa Anna milo.
En: Jakub, do you need any help? Anna asked kindly.

Sk: Nie, ďakujem, odpovedal Jakub.
En: No, thank you, Jakub replied.

Sk: Jeho hrdosť mu nedovolila prijať pomoc.
En: His pride wouldn't allow him to accept help.

Sk: Projekt sa volal “Inteligentný Domáci Asistent”.
En: The project was called “Smart Home Assistant.”

Sk: Jakub dlho pracoval na tomto projekte.
En: Jakub had worked on this project for a long time.

Sk: Bol presvedčený, že má šancu vyhrať štipendium.
En: He was convinced that he had a chance to win the scholarship.

Sk: Ale keď sa blížila prezentácia, všetko sa zdalo ísť proti nemu.
En: But as the presentation approached, everything seemed to go against him.

Sk: Jakubove ruky sa triasli.
En: Jakub's hands trembled.

Sk: Vstal a zamieril k prednej časti kaviarne.
En: He stood up and headed to the front of the café.

Sk: Všetci študenti a sudcovia sledovali.
En: All the students and judges were watching.

Sk: Spustil prezentáciu na veľkej obrazovke.
En: He started the presentation on a large screen.

Sk: A potom to prišlo.
En: And then it happened.

Sk: Technická porucha.
En: A technical glitch.

Sk: Obrazovka zamrzla.
En: The screen froze.

Sk: Všetci stíchli.
En: Everyone fell silent.

Sk: Nie, nie teraz, pomyslel si Jakub.
En: No, not now, Jakub thought.

Sk: Pokoj, musíš to vyriešiť.
En: Stay calm, you must resolve this.

Sk: Ale jeho myseľ bola prázdna.
En: But his mind was blank.

Sk: Nevedel, čo robiť.
En: He didn’t know what to do.

Sk: Vtedy k nemu prišla Anna.
En: Then Anna approached him.

Sk: Jej oči boli plné porozumenia a odhodlania.
En: Her eyes were full of understanding and determination.

Sk: Jakub, dovoľ mi pomôcť, povedala tichým hlasom.
En: Jakub, let me help you, she said softly.

Sk: Spolu to zvládneme.
En: We can do this together.

Sk: Jakub zhlboka vydýchol.
En: Jakub took a deep breath.

Sk: Otočil sa k nej.
En: He turned to her.

Sk: Prijatie jej pomoci bolo pre neho ťažké.
En: Accepting her help was difficult for him.

Sk: Ale vedel, že bez nej to nepôjde.
En: But he knew he couldn’t do it without her.

Sk: Ďakujem, Anna, povedal.
En: Thank you, Anna, he said.

Sk: Potrebujem tvoju pomoc.
En: I need your help.

Sk: Anna rýchlo prešla k notebooku.
En: Anna quickly went to the laptop.

Sk: Pár klikov a problém bol vyriešený.
En: A few clicks and the problem was solved.

Sk: Jakub pokračoval v prezentácii.
En: Jakub continued with the presentation.

Sk: Tentoraz kľudnejšie a sebaisté.
En: This time more calmly and confidently.

Sk: Sudcovia a spolužiaci hviezdili Jakuba pozornosťou.
En: The judges and classmates watched Jakub attentively.

Sk: Anna pri ňom stála a podporovala ho.
En: Anna stood by him and supported him.

Sk: Keď prezentácia skončila, celý priestor zaplnil potlesk.
En: When the presentation ended, the entire room erupted in applause.

Sk: Jakubovi spadol kameň zo srdca.
En: Jakub felt a weight lift off his shoulders.

Sk: Prezentácia bola úspešná.
En: The presentation was successful.

Sk: Cítil sa sebavedomejší.
En: He felt more confident.

Sk: Jakub, bol si skvelý, usmiala sa Anna.
En: Jakub, you were great, Anna smiled.

Sk: Vidíš, čo všetko dokážeš, keď prijmeš pomoc.
En: See what you can achieve when you accept help.

Sk: Jakub len prikývol.
En: Jakub just nodded.

Sk: V tú horúcu letnú noc, Jakub pochopil, že prijatie pomoci nie je znakom slabosti.
En: On that hot summer evening, Jakub realized that accepting help is not a sign of weakness.

Sk: Je to sila.
En: It is a strength.

Sk: Vďaka Anne získal viac ako len úspech v prezentácii.
En: Thanks to Anna, he gained more than just success in the presentation.

Sk: Našiel novú odvahu a sebavedomie.
En: He found new courage and confidence.

Sk: Konečne sa cítil pripravený na ďalší krok.

Sk: S odvahou, sebavedomím a novým priateľstvom bol pripravený čeliť budúcnosti.
En: With courage, confidence, and a new friendship, he was ready to face the future.

Sk: A možno, len možno, získal viac než len štipendium.
En: And maybe, just maybe, he gained more than just a scholarship.
