Story Transcript:

Sv: Våren var i full blom i Uppsala.
En: Spring was in full bloom in Uppsala.

Sv: Solen värmde skolans gula tegelväggar och träden hade redan fått sina gröna knoppar.
En: The sun warmed the school's yellow brick walls, and the trees had already sprouted their green buds.

Sv: Skoldansen skulle hållas i gympasalen, som var dekorerad med pastellfärgade pappersgirlanger och stora påskägg.
En: The school dance would be held in the gymnasium, which was decorated with pastel-colored paper garlands and large Easter eggs.

Sv: Musik hördes långt bort i korridorerna, och många elever samlades för att avsluta skolveckan med en festlig kväll.
En: Music was heard far down the corridors, and many students gathered to end the school week with a festive evening.

Sv: Albin ställde sig vid ingången till gympasalen.
En: Albin stood at the entrance to the gymnasium.

Sv: Han var nervös.
En: He was nervous.

Sv: Han såg sig omkring och letade efter Sigrid.
En: He looked around and searched for Sigrid.

Sv: Hon stod vid ett bord längst bak i salen, och i hennes närhet fanns Nils.
En: She stood by a table at the back of the hall, and nearby was Nils.

Sv: Nils var en god vän, men ibland gjorde hans självsäkra retsamhet det svårt för Albin.
En: Nils was a good friend, but sometimes his confident teasing made things difficult for Albin.

Sv: "Har du skrivit kortet?"
En: "Have you written the card?"

Sv: frågade Nils och puttade Albin i sidan.
En: asked Nils, nudging Albin in the side.

Sv: "Ja," svarade Albin tyst och rodnade.
En: "Yes," replied Albin quietly, blushing.

Sv: Kortet, ett anonymt påskkort, fanns gömt i Sigrids skåp tidigare samma dag.
En: The card, an anonymous Easter card, had been hidden in Sigrid's locker earlier that day.

Sv: Albin mindes hur han hade suttit uppe kvällen innan för att skriva kortet med sina känslor.
En: Albin remembered how he had stayed up the night before to write the card with his feelings.

Sv: "Glad Påsk," hade han börjat, följt av några nervöst formulerade rader om hur mycket han tyckte om henne.
En: "Happy Easter," he had started, followed by a few nervously phrased lines about how much he liked her.

Sv: Nils fnissade.
En: Nils snickered.

Sv: "Du borde bara spela det cool."
En: "You should just play it cool."

Sv: Albin tvekade i dörröppningen.
En: Albin hesitated in the doorway.

Sv: Han visste att detta var hans chans.
En: He knew this was his chance.

Sv: Han kunde höra musiken och skratten, men hans hjärta slog så hårt att ljudet av musik nästan överröstades.
En: He could hear the music and laughter, but his heart was pounding so hard that it almost drowned out the sound of the music.

Sv: Plötsligt såg han Sigrid gå mot honom.
En: Suddenly, he saw Sigrid walking toward him.

Sv: Hon log, och något i hennes ögon sa att hon visste.
En: She smiled, and something in her eyes said that she knew.

Sv: När hon kom närmare höll hon upp kortet med ett leende.
En: As she came closer, she held up the card with a smile.

Sv: "Var det du som skrev detta?"
En: "Was it you who wrote this?"

Sv: frågade hon försiktigt, men det fanns en glimt av förväntan i hennes röst.
En: she asked cautiously, but there was a hint of anticipation in her voice.

Sv: Albin kände hur kinderna brann.
En: Albin felt his cheeks burn.

Sv: Här var beslutet.
En: Here was the decision.

Sv: Han kunde säga att det var ett skämt och gå vidare, eller han kunde satsa allt och säga sanningen.
En: He could say it was a joke and move on, or he could risk everything and tell the truth.

Sv: Med ett djupt andetag mötte han hennes blick.
En: With a deep breath, he met her gaze.

Sv: "Ja, det var jag," sa han tillslut, övervinnande rädslan som burit på honom så länge.
En: "Yes, it was me," he finally said, overcoming the fear that had burdened him for so long.

Sv: "Jag har velat säga det länge.
En: "I've wanted to say it for a long time.

Sv: Jag gillar dig, Sigrid."
En: I like you, Sigrid."

Sv: Sigrid log stort nu, och det var ett leende som fick hans mod att växa.
En: Sigrid was smiling broadly now, and it was a smile that made his courage grow.

Sv: "Jag är glad att du sa det," svarade hon.
En: "I'm glad you said it," she replied.

Sv: "Jag har hoppats att du skulle fråga mig."
En: "I was hoping you would ask me."

Sv: De tog varandras händer och gick ut på dansgolvet.
En: They took each other's hands and stepped onto the dance floor.

Sv: Musikens rytm fyllde gympasalen, och de dansade under de mjuka ljusen och de färgglada dekorationerna.
En: The rhythm of the music filled the gymnasium, and they danced under the soft lights and the colorful decorations.

Sv: För Albin var det som om världen runt honom försvann.
En: For Albin, it was as if the world around him disappeared.

Sv: Han hade tagit steget, vunnit över sina tvivel och var där med Sigrid.
En: He had taken the step, conquered his doubts, and was there with Sigrid.

Sv: När kvällen fortskred, insåg Albin att sanningen, även om den ibland kunde kännas läskig, hade gett honom mer än han någonsin kunnat hoppas på.
En: As the evening went on, Albin realized that the truth, even if sometimes it felt scary, had given him more than he could ever have hoped for.
