Story Transcript:

Ca: El sol brillava amb força, escalfant les roques de la muntanya de Montserrat.
En: The sun shone brightly, warming the rocks of Montserrat Mountain.

Ca: Al peu del camí, Arnau ajustava les corretges de la seva motxilla.
En: At the base of the path, Arnau was adjusting the straps of his backpack.

Ca: Al costat hi havia Elisa, una turista amb ulls plens d'inquietud.
En: Next to him was Elisa, a tourist with eyes full of anxiety.

Ca: —Estàs llesta?
En: "Are you ready?"

Ca: —va preguntar Arnau amb un somriure.
En: Arnau asked with a smile.

Ca: —Sí, crec que sí —va respondre Elisa, mirant cap amunt, on els cims es perdien en el cel blau.
En: "Yes, I think so," replied Elisa, looking up where the peaks disappeared into the blue sky.

Ca: Arnau tenia una vida senzilla però arrossegava una pena profunda.
En: Arnau led a simple life but carried a deep sorrow.

Ca: Guanyar-se la vida com a guia era un mitjà per connectar amb la natura i trobar una mica de pau.
En: Earning a living as a guide was a way for him to connect with nature and find a bit of peace.

Ca: Elisa, per altra banda, havia vingut a Montserrat buscant respostes.
En: Elisa, on the other hand, had come to Montserrat seeking answers.

Ca: Acabava de viure una crisi personal i esperava que la muntanya li oferís claredat.
En: She had recently gone through a personal crisis and hoped that the mountain would offer her some clarity.

Ca: Van començar a caminar pel camí pedregós.
En: They started walking along the rocky path.

Ca: Les primeres passes eren fàcils, però aviat la muntanya va començar a desafiar-los.
En: The first steps were easy, but soon the mountain began to challenge them.

Ca: El sol de l'estiu picava, i la suor els regalimava per la cara.
En: The summer sun was intense, and sweat trickled down their faces.

Ca: —Com t'ho fas per trobar calma aquí?
En: "How do you find calm here?"

Ca: —va preguntar Elisa.
En: Elisa asked.

Ca: Arnau va pensar un moment abans de respondre.
En: Arnau thought for a moment before answering.

Ca: —La natura té una manera d'escoltar-te, encara que no parlis.
En: "Nature has a way of listening to you, even if you don't speak.

Ca: És aquí on trobo la meva pau —va dir, amb un to serè però sincer.
En: That's where I find my peace," he said, with a calm but sincere tone.

Ca: Elisa va assentir.
En: Elisa nodded.

Ca: Mentre pujava, sentia que cada pas li donava una mica més de força.
En: As she climbed, she felt that each step gave her a bit more strength.

Ca: Però el camí es va fer més difícil, i la preocupació començava a esborrar l'ànim inicial.
En: But the path became more difficult, and worry began to erase her initial enthusiasm.

Ca: A mitja pujada, el cel, que fins aleshores havia estat clar, es va enfosquir.
En: Midway up, the sky, which had been clear until then, darkened.

Ca: Núvols de tempesta es van arremolinar sobre els cims.
En: Storm clouds swirled over the peaks.

Ca: Arnau va mirar el cel amb una expressió d'alerta.
En: Arnau looked at the sky with an alert expression.

Ca: —Hem de continuar —va dir fermament.
En: "We have to keep going," he said firmly.

Ca: Elisa es va sorprendre.
En: Elisa was surprised.

Ca: —Després d'una tempesta, el paisatge és més clar.
En: "After a storm, the landscape is clearer.

Ca: Confia en mi —va dir Arnau, veient el dubte en els ulls d'Elisa.
En: Trust me," said Arnau, seeing the doubt in Elisa's eyes.

Ca: Van seguir caminant mentre el vent començava a bufar més fort.
En: They continued walking as the wind started to blow harder.

Ca: La pluja aviat va començar a caure, i amb ella, la dificultat de la pujada es va incrementar.
En: Soon, the rain began to fall, and with it, the difficulty of the climb increased.

Ca: En un moment donat, un tro va sonar tan fort que va sobresaltar Elisa.
En: At one point, a thunderclap sounded so loudly that it startled Elisa.

Ca: —No puc més!
En: "I can't go on!"

Ca: —va cridar.
En: she shouted.

Ca: Arnau va aturar-se i va agafar-li la mà.
En: Arnau stopped and took her hand.

Ca: —Sé que és difícil, però estem gairebé al cim.
En: "I know it's hard, but we are almost at the summit.

Ca: Ho podem fer junts —va dir amb una veu encoratjadora.
En: We can do it together," he said with an encouraging voice.

Ca: Elisa va respirar profundament, i amb la mà d'Arnau com a suport, va continuar pujant.
En: Elisa took a deep breath, and with Arnau's hand as a support, continued climbing.

Ca: La tempesta va arribar al seu punt màxim quan eren a poca distància del cim.
En: The storm reached its peak when they were close to the summit.

Ca: En aquell moment, Elisa va decidir que havia de parlar.
En: At that moment, Elisa decided she had to speak.

Ca: —Estic aquí perquè no sé què fer amb la meva vida —va dir, amb la veu trencada per l'emoció.
En: "I'm here because I don't know what to do with my life," she said, her voice breaking with emotion.

Ca: Arnau la va mirar amb empatia.
En: Arnau looked at her with empathy.

Ca: —Jo tampoc ho sé sempre.
En: "I don’t always know either.

Ca: Però aquí, a la natura, les respostes a vegades arriben.
En: But here, in nature, the answers sometimes come."

Ca: Finalment, van arribar al cim.
En: Finally, they reached the summit.

Ca: La tempesta va començar a disminuir i els núvols es van dispersar, deixant veure un cel blau i brillant.
En: The storm began to lessen and the clouds dispersed, revealing a bright blue sky.

Ca: Des del cim de Montserrat, el món semblava tranquil i ordenat.
En: From the top of Montserrat, the world seemed tranquil and orderly.

Ca: —Hem arribat —va dir Arnau, sentint una calma que feia temps no experimentava.
En: "We made it," Arnau said, feeling a calm he hadn't experienced for a long time.

Ca: Elisa va mirar al seu voltant, respirant profundament l'aire fresc.
En: Elisa looked around, deeply breathing in the fresh air.

Ca: En aquell moment, va sentir una sensació de claredat.
En: At that moment, she felt a sense of clarity.

Ca: —Gràcies, Arnau.
En: "Thank you, Arnau.

Ca: Ara sé què he de fer —va dir, amb determinació als ulls.
En: Now I know what I have to do," she said, with determination in her eyes.

Ca: Arnau va somriure.
En: Arnau smiled.

Ca: La muntanya havia complert la seva promesa.
En: The mountain had fulfilled its promise.

Ca: Des del cim, mentre el sol es ponia, van trobar l'alleujament i la força que necessitaven.
En: From the summit, as the sun set, they found the relief and strength they needed.

Ca: La tempesta havia passat, però els seus efectes durarien molt de temps, transformant la pena d'Arnau i les preocupacions d'Elisa en una nova esperança per al futur.
En: The storm had passed, but its effects would last a long time, transforming Arnau's sorrow and Elisa's worries into new hope for the future.
