A2–B10:38
The student felt really down.
Dismayado talaga ang estudyante.
I saw their sadness quickly.
Nakita ko agad ang lungkot nila.
I sat close to listen.
Umupo ako malapit para makinig.
I said, "This test does not define you."
Sabi ko, "Hindi ka nito tinutukoy."
We talked about the result.
Pinag-usapan namin ang resulta.
I suggested, "Let us fix what we can."
Nag-suggest ako, "Ayusin natin ang pwedeng ayusin."
They remembered past successes clearly.
Naalala nila ang dating tagumpay.
I added, "I have seen you do hard things."
Dagdag ko, "Nakita ko na kaya mong gawin ang mahihirap."
Their shoulders relaxed a little.
Medyo gumaan ang pakiramdam nila.
We made a new study plan.
Gumawa kami ng bagong plano.
It felt like a good step forward.
Parang magandang hakbang pasulong ito.
Hope replaced their initial worry.
Napalitan ng pag-asa ang pag-aalala.
