Story Transcript:
No: Eirik flyttet nylig til et nytt nabolag.
En: Eirik recently moved to a new neighborhood.
No: Han sto foran speilet og justerte håret sitt mens han tenkte på den aller første skoledagen.
En: He stood in front of the mirror and adjusted his hair while thinking about the very first day of school.
No: Sola kastet varme stråler gjennom vinduet, og lyset fikk de grønne trærne utenfor til å skinne enda mer.
En: The sun cast warm rays through the window, and the light made the green trees outside shine even more.
No: Nabolaget var fullt av små, koselige hus med frodige hager som blomstret i alle regnbuens farger.
En: The neighborhood was full of small, cozy houses with lush gardens blooming in all the colors of the rainbow.
No: Det var sensommer, og Eirik hadde på seg en lett jakke.
En: It was late summer, and Eirik was wearing a light jacket.
No: Han skulle snart til skolen, en stor gammel murbygning sentralt i nabolaget.
En: He soon had to go to school, a large old brick building centrally located in the neighborhood.
No: Eirik var spent, men innerst inne var han nervøs.
En: Eirik was excited, but deep down he was nervous.
No: Ville han finne seg en venn?
En: Would he find a friend?
No: Han var sjenert, og tanken på å bli avvist plaget ham.
En: He was shy, and the thought of being rejected troubled him.
No: Eiriks mor hadde fortalt ham om et samvær som skolen hadde organisert for å markere slutten av sommeren.
En: Eirik's mother had told him about a gathering that the school had organized to mark the end of summer.
No: "Kanskje jeg kan møte noen der," tenkte han og bestemte seg for å dra.
En: "Maybe I can meet someone there," he thought and decided to go.
No: End-of-summer-gatheringen ble holdt på skolens store lekeplass.
En: The end-of-summer gathering was held on the school's large playground.
No: Det summet av spenning, og barn lekte overalt.
En: It buzzed with excitement, and children played everywhere.
No: Eirik så etter et kjent ansikt, men det var ikke lett.
En: Eirik looked for a familiar face, but it wasn't easy.
No: Han satte seg på en benk og trakk pusten.
En: He sat on a bench and took a deep breath.
No: Han måtte våge å snakke med noen.
En: He had to dare to talk to someone.
No: I et hjørne av lekeplassen så Eirik en jente som smilte og lo med en gruppe elever.
En: In a corner of the playground, Eirik saw a girl who was smiling and laughing with a group of students.
No: Hun virket vennlig og utadvendt.
En: She seemed friendly and outgoing.
No: Eirik bestemte seg for å nærme seg.
En: Eirik decided to approach.
No: Det var Sunniva.
En: It was Sunniva.
No: Hun hadde bodd i nabolaget hele livet og elsket å bli kjent med nye mennesker.
En: She had lived in the neighborhood all her life and loved getting to know new people.
No: “H-hallo,” sa Eirik stille, men høyt nok til at Sunniva kunne høre ham.
En: “H-hello,” said Eirik quietly, but loud enough for Sunniva to hear him.
No: Hun snudde seg og smilte bredt.
En: She turned and smiled broadly.
No: “Hei!
En: "Hi!
No: Du må være ny her.
En: You must be new here.
No: Jeg er Sunniva,” sa hun varmt.
En: I'm Sunniva," she said warmly.
No: Eirik presenterte seg, og beroliget av Sunnivas ven
