Story Transcript:
Sk: V jeseni, keď sa stromy za sklenenými stenami inkubátora Startup Incubator zohrievali v zlatistých farbách, troch študentov spájala spoločná túžba.
En: In the fall, when the trees behind the glass walls of the Startup Incubator warmed in golden hues, three students were united by a common yearning.
Sk: Marek, Zuzana a Jakub sa pripravovali na školskú súťaž vedeckých projektov.
En: Marek, Zuzana, and Jakub were preparing for a school scientific project competition.
Sk: Marek, s hlavou plnou nápadov, cítil napatie.
En: Marek, with his head full of ideas, felt tension.
Sk: Potreboval získať pozornosť potenciálneho mentora.
En: He needed to capture the attention of a potential mentor.
Sk: Cítil, že deň súťaže sa blíži ako hrozivý tieň.
En: He felt the day of the competition approaching like a looming shadow.
Sk: Inkubátor bol miestom, kde sa stretávali mladí vynálezcovia.
En: The incubator was a place where young inventors gathered.
Sk: Jasné priestory plnili obrazovky s pohyblivými dátami a prototypy technológií čakali na svoju chvíľu slávy.
En: Bright spaces were filled with screens showing moving data, and technology prototypes awaited their moment of glory.
Sk: Toto bol svet, do ktorého Marek chcel patriť.
En: This was the world Marek wanted to belong to.
Sk: Ale rýchlosť jeho myšlienok predbiehala schopnosť ich vysloviť pred ľuďmi.
En: But the speed of his thoughts outpaced his ability to articulate them in front of people.
Sk: "Musím to zvládnuť," povedal si Marek, keď sa pozrel na Jakuba, svojho spoľahlivého priateľa.
En: "I have to manage this," Marek told himself as he looked at Jakub, his reliable friend.
Sk: Jakub, introvertný, ale bystrý, súhlasne prikývol.
En: Jakub, introverted but sharp, nodded in agreement.
Sk: Rozumel Marekovým obavám.
En: He understood Marek's concerns.
Sk: "Pomôžem ti," ubezpečil ho.
En: "I'll help you," he assured him.
Sk: Zatiaľ čo Zuzana, sebavedomá a súťaživá, trénovala so svojou zvyčajnou intenzitou, Marek zvažoval, či ju požiadať o pomoc.
En: While Zuzana, confident and competitive, trained with her usual intensity, Marek pondered whether to ask her for help.
Sk: Neprestával ho udivovať jej istý prejav.
En: He was constantly amazed by her confident demeanor.
Sk: Nakoniec sa odhodlal a požiadal ju, aby mu poskytla pár tipov.
En: Finally, he mustered the courage and asked her to give him a few tips.
Sk: "Je to o dôvere, Marek," poradila Zuzana s povzbudzujúcim úsmevom.
En: "It's about confidence, Marek," advised Zuzana with an encouraging smile.
Sk: "Daj do toho svoju vášeň a všetko ostatné príde samo.
En: "Put your passion into it, and everything else will fall into place."
Sk: "Nadišiel deň súťaže.
En: The day of the competition arrived.
Sk: Marekova ruka visela nad klávesnicou, keď vstúpil na pódium.
En: Marek's hand hovered over the keyboard as he stepped onto the stage.
Sk: Ústa sa mu chveli.
En: His mouth quivered.
Sk: Srdce bilo rýchlo.
En: His heart raced.
Sk: Prvé slová sa zasekli.
En: The first words got stuck.
Sk: Jakubov povzbudivý pohľad z hľadiska mu však dodal odvahu.
En: However, Jakub's encouraging look from the audience gave him the courage.
Sk: Pamätal si Zuzanine slová.
En: He remembered Zuzana's words.
