Story Transcript:
Et: Tallinna vanalinn oli täis inimesi ja suvine päike paistis heledalt munakiviteedelt.
En: The Tallinna Old Town was filled with people and the summer sun shone brightly on the cobblestone streets.
Et: Eero ja Kadri kõndisid kitsal tänaval, nende ümber möllamas turistide sumisev vool.
En: Eero and Kadri walked along the narrow street, surrounded by the bustling flow of tourists.
Et: Tänane päev oli eriline - eksamitulemuste päev.
En: Today was a special day - exam results day.
Et: Eero süda peksles kiiresti.
En: Eero's heart was beating fast.
Et: Ta oli töötanud pikad kuud, õppinud öösiti, lootuses, et need tulemused avavad talle ukse tema unistuste ülikooli.
En: He had worked long months, studied at night, hoping that these results would open the door to his dream university.
Et: Kadri kõndis tema kõrval, alati naeratades ja rahulik.
En: Kadri walked beside him, always smiling and calm.
Et: "Noh, Eero, oled valmis?"
En: "Well, Eero, are you ready?"
Et: Kadri küsis julgustavalt.
En: Kadri asked encouragingly.
Et: "Ma ei tea," vastas Eero närviliselt, käsi taskus telefoni kramplikult hoides.
En: "I don't know," replied Eero nervously, gripping his phone tightly in his pocket.
Et: Ta kartis, et seal ekraanil ootab teda pettumus.
En: He feared that disappointment awaited him on the screen.
Et: "Aga ma arvan, et pean sellega tegelema."
En: "But I guess I have to deal with it."
Et: "Sa oled tubli õppija.
En: "You're a diligent student.
Et: Sa said hakkama," kinnitas Kadri.
En: You did well," assured Kadri.
Et: Ta patsutas Eero õlale ja naeratas.
En: She patted Eero on the shoulder and smiled.
Et: "Võib-olla loeme tulemused siinsamas?
En: "Maybe we should check the results right here?
Et: Kui sa oled närvis, siis oleme koos."
En: If you're nervous, we'll be together."
Et: Nad istusid ühe kohviku ees oleva laua taha.
En: They sat down at a table in front of a café.
Et: Kadri tellis kaks karastusjooki, et natuke närve leevendada.
En: Kadri ordered two soft drinks to calm their nerves a bit.
Et: Turistid ümberringi pildistasid vaimustunult vanalinna, teadmata Eero ja Kadri pingelist hetkeseisu.
En: Tourists around them were eagerly photographing the Old Town, unaware of Eero and Kadri's tense moment.
Et: Eero sügav õhkamine reetis tema närvilisuse.
En: Eero's deep sigh betrayed his nervousness.
Et: Ta avas telefoni.
En: He opened his phone.
Et: Kadri kallutas pead lähemale, et ekraanilt tulemust näha.
En: Kadri leaned over to see the results on the screen.
Et: Eero sõrmed libistasid kiiresti läbi menüü, kuni nad jõudsid tulemuste lehele.
En: Eero's fingers quickly swiped through the menu until they reached the results page.
Et: Kõik tundus hetkeks tarduvat.
En: Everything seemed to freeze for a moment.
Et: Eero süda jättis löögi vahele, kui tema silmad üle numbrite libisesid.
En: Eero's heart skipped a beat as his eyes scanned over the numbers.
Et: "Ma tegin selle ära," sosistas ta lõpuks, kerge naeratus huulil.
En: "I did it," he finally whispered, a slight smile on his lips.
Et: "Mul on kõik hinded positiivsed!"
En: "All my grades are positive!"
Et: Kadri hüppas rõõmust üles.
En: Kadri jumped up with joy.
Et: "Ma
