Story Transcript:
Ca: A l'horitzó, el sol es ponia sobre el mar Mediterrani, tenyint el cel de colors calents: taronja, rosa i violeta.
En: On the horizon, the sun was setting over the Mediterranean Sea, tinting the sky with warm colors: orange, pink, and violet.
Ca: A la petita vila de pescadors de la Costa Brava, la Marta estava excitada i nerviosa al mateix temps.
En: In the small fishing village of the Costa Brava, Marta was both excited and nervous.
Ca: El dia de l'obertura de la seva galeria d'art s'apropava ràpidament, i encara li faltaven algunes obres especials per completar l'exposició.
En: The opening day of her art gallery was rapidly approaching, and she still needed to complete some special pieces for the exhibition.
Ca: Caminava pels carrers estrets i empedrats, sense deixar de pensar.
En: She walked through the narrow, cobblestone streets, constantly thinking.
Ca: Jordi, un pescador local, estava al moll descarregant el seu peix fresc pel dia.
En: Jordi, a local fisherman, was at the dock unloading his fresh catch of the day.
Ca: Coneixia cada roca i cada onada de la mar.
En: He knew every rock and wave of the sea.
Ca: Els seus braços forts i la seva pell bronzejada narraven històries de moltes nits passades pescant.
En: His strong arms and tanned skin told stories of many nights spent fishing.
Ca: Tot i això, ningú sabia del seu altre passatemps: pintar.
En: However, no one knew about his other pastime: painting.
Ca: Des de fa anys, Jordi pintava en secret.
En: For years, Jordi had been painting in secret.
Ca: S’inspirava en les onades i els paisatges del poble.
En: He drew inspiration from the waves and the village landscapes.
Ca: Però mai havia mostrat les seves pintures a ningú.
En: But he had never shown his paintings to anyone.
Ca: Tenia por.
En: He was afraid.
Ca: Pensava que ningú apreciaria el seu art.
En: He thought no one would appreciate his art.
Ca: Un dia, la Marta va veure Jordi mentre ell venia el peix als restaurants propers.
En: One day, Marta saw Jordi while he was selling fish to the nearby restaurants.
Ca: Se li va apropar i van començar a parlar.
En: She approached him, and they started talking.
Ca: Entre peixos i pinzells, va sorgir una amistat inesperada.
En: Between fish and brushes, an unexpected friendship formed.
Ca: “Coneixes artistes locals?” va preguntar la Marta.
En: “Do you know any local artists?” Marta asked.
Ca: “Necessito algunes obres més per l’obertura de la galeria.”
En: “I need a few more pieces for the gallery opening.”
Ca: Jordi va sentir un batec fort al cor. “Potser...” va murmurar, sense acabar la frase.
En: Jordi felt a strong heartbeat. “Maybe…” he murmured, not finishing the sentence.
Ca: La seva por de ser rebutjat el paralitzava.
En: His fear of being rejected paralyzed him.
Ca: Els dies van anar passant.
En: Days went by.
Ca: La pressió augmentava per tots dos.
En: The pressure was mounting for both of them.
Ca: La Marta, desesperada per trobar més art.
En: Marta, desperate to find more art.
Ca: Jordi, debatent-se entre el seu amor per l’art i la por a fallar.
En: Jordi, torn between his love for art and his fear of failure.
Ca: Finalment, la nit abans de La Mare de Déu d'Agost, que també era la vigília de l'obertura de la galeria, Jordi va agafar un dels seus quadres preferits i es va dirigir a la casa de la Marta.
En: Finally, the night before the Feast of the Assumption, which was also the eve of the gallery opening, Jordi took one of his favorite paintings and headed to Marta's house.
Ca: El quadre representava un paisatge marí, amb colors vius capturant la bellesa del seu estimat poble.
En: The painting depicted a marine landscape, with vivid colors capturing the beauty of his beloved village.
Ca: Quan la Marta va obrir la porta, Jordi va tremolar. “Tinc una cosa per tu.”
En: When Marta opened the door, Jordi trembled. “I have something for you.”
Ca: La Marta va mirar el quadre i els seus ulls es van il·luminar. “És teu això?”
En: Marta looked at the painting and her eyes lit up. “Is this yours?”
Ca: Jordi va assentir amb timidesa. “Sí, pinto en el meu temps lliure. No sabia si t'agradaria.”
En: Jordi nodded shyly. “Yes, I paint in my free time. I wasn’t sure if you would like it.”
Ca: La Marta no va poder creure el que veia. “És espectacular! Necessitem aquest quadre a l’exposició. És perfecte.”
En: Marta couldn’t believe what she was seeing. “It’s spectacular! We need this painting in the exhibition. It’s perfect.”
Ca: L'endemà, durant l'obertura de la galeria, el quadre de Jordi va ser una de les principals atraccions.
En: The next day, during the gallery opening, Jordi’s painting was one of the main attractions.
Ca: La gent quedava meravellada davant del seu art, més i més persones preguntaven qui era aquest artista misteriós.
En: People were amazed by his art, and more and more people were asking who this mysterious artist was.
Ca: Jordi va guanyar confiança veient les cares somrients i escoltant els elogis.
En: Jordi gained confidence seeing the smiling faces and hearing the compliments.
Ca: Per fi, va poder veure’s com un artista, no només com un pescador.
En: Finally, he could see himself as an artist, not just a fisherman.
Ca: I la Marta va comprendre la importància de donar oportunitats a talent desconegut.
En: And Marta understood the importance of giving opportunities to undiscovered talent.
Ca: Va ser una nit d'èxit per a tots dos.
En: It was a night of success for both of them.
Ca: La galeria de Marta va brillar amb la llum de la perseverança i la valentia de Jordi, i sota el cel estrellat de la Costa Brava, van celebrar la seva victòria compartida.
En: Marta’s gallery shone with the light of Jordi’s perseverance and courage, and under the starry sky of the Costa Brava, they celebrated their shared victory.
