01local textBox = script.Parent
02 
03local secretWord = "Testing1"
04local colorNormal = Color3.new(1, 1, 1) -- white
05local colorWrong = Color3.new(1, 0, 0) -- red
06local colorCorrect = Color3.new(0, 1, 0) -- green
07 
08textBox.ClearTextOnFocus = true
09textBox.Text = ""
10textBox.Font = Enum.Font.Code
11textBox.PlaceholderText = "Write the text here"
12textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorNormal
13 
14local function onFocused()
15    textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorNormal
16end
17 
18local function onFocusLost(enterPressed, inputObject)
19    if enterPressed then
20        local guess = textBox.Text
21        if guess == secretWord then
22            script.Parent.Parent.TextLabel.Visible = false
23if script.Parent.Text == "Testing1" then
24script.Parent.Parent.TextLabel.Visible = true
25else

Your error is in line 24, like the error message says. You are doing 1 too many ".parent"s. ".Parent" Goes to the TextBox, and another ".Parent" goes to the frame.

New Code Line 24

`1`	`script.Parent.TextLabel.Visible` `=` `true`

All Code

01local textBox = script.Parent
02 
03local secretWord = "Testing1"
04local colorNormal = Color3.new(1, 1, 1) -- white
05local colorWrong = Color3.new(1, 0, 0) -- red
06local colorCorrect = Color3.new(0, 1, 0) -- green
07 
08textBox.ClearTextOnFocus = true
09textBox.Text = ""
10textBox.Font = Enum.Font.Code
11textBox.PlaceholderText = "Write the text here"
12textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorNormal
13 
14local function onFocused()
15    textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorNormal
16end
17 
18local function onFocusLost(enterPressed, inputObject)
19    if enterPressed then
20        local guess = textBox.Text
21        if guess == secretWord then
22            script.Parent.TextLabel.Visible = false
23if script.Parent.Text == "Testing1" then
24script.Parent.TextLabel.Visible = true
25else
26print("Test")
27end
28            textBox.Text = "TestRight"
29            textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorCorrect
30        else
31            textBox.Text = "TestWrong"
32            textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorWrong
33        end
34    else
35        textBox.Text = ""
36        textBox.BackgroundColor3 = colorNormal
37    end
38end
