Story Transcript:
Et: Kuldne sügis kattis kogu internaatkooli kaunite lehtedega, mis langesid vahtrate ja kaskedelt.
En: The golden autumn covered the entire boarding school with beautiful leaves that fell from the vahtrad and kased.
Et: Internaatkool, iidne hoone, oli kaetud ronitaimedega ja vaatas üle kooli sisehoovi, kus Mardipäeva pidustused olid algamas.
En: The boarding school, an ancient building, was covered with climbing plants and overlooked the school's courtyard, where Mardi Day celebrations were beginning.
Et: Kert, vaikne ja tähelepanelik poiss, õppis klassiruumis, kui teda vaevas köha.
En: Kert, a quiet and attentive boy, was studying in the classroom when he was troubled by a cough.
Et: See oli tõsine köha, mis sundis teda med.õdede kabinetti minema.
En: It was a serious cough that forced him to go to the nurses' office.
Et: Maarja ja Ants jälgisid murelikult, kuidas Kert siirdub tervisehoidlasse.
En: Maarja and Ants watched worriedly as Kert headed to the health ward.
Et: Kert teadis, et peab paranema, et osaleda Mardipäeva pidustustel, mis olid talle olulised.
En: Kert knew he had to get better to participate in the Mardi Day celebrations, which were important to him.
Et: Kuid köha süvenes ja medõde käskis Kerdil voodis püsida.
En: But the cough worsened, and the nurse told Kert to stay in bed.
Et: Ta pidi valima, kas kuulata medõde või salaja pidustustele minna, riskides tervisega.
En: He had to choose whether to listen to the nurse or sneak to the celebrations, risking his health.
Et: Kert istus haigla voodil, kuuldes kaugusest muusikat ja naeru.
En: Kert sat on the hospital bed, hearing music and laughter in the distance.
Et: Hetkeks mõtles ta põgeneda ja liituda sõpradega.
En: For a moment, he thought about escaping and joining his friends.
Et: Kuid ta mõistis, et tervis on olulisem.
En: But he realized that health is more important.
Et: Kui ta end nüüd ei hoolitse, võib köha halveneda.
En: If he didn’t take care of himself now, the cough might get worse.
Et: Kert otsustas jääda voodisse ja võttis päeviku.
En: Kert decided to stay in bed and took his diary.
Et: Ta kirjutas üles oma mõtted ja unistused tulevaste pidustuste kohta.
En: He wrote down his thoughts and dreams about future celebrations.
Et: Aeglaselt hakkas Kert tervenema.
En: Slowly, Kert began to recover.
Et: Ta nägi aknast, kuidas lehed langevad ja ilm jahe, kuid ilus on.
En: He saw from the window how the leaves were falling and how the weather was cold but beautiful.
Et: Ta mõistis, et kannatlikkus on sama võimas kui tegutsemine.
En: He understood that patience is as powerful as action.
Et: Pidustused ootavad teda ka järgmisel aastal ja ta saab nendes täielikult osaleda, kui ta nüüd enda eest hoolitseb.
En: Celebrations would await him next year, and he could fully participate in them if he took care of himself now.
Et: Lõppude lõpuks, Kert ei kahetsenud oma otsust.
En: In the end, Kert did not regret his decision.
Et: Ta õppis, kui oluline on hoolitseda iseenda eest ja kuidas see ettevaatus võib tema tulevikus ilusamaid hetki kinkida.
En: He learned how important it is to take care of oneself and how this caution can bring more beautiful moments in the future.
