Ca: Els seus gestos eren insegurs, però les línies sobre el paper revelaven qui era.
En: Her gestures were uncertain, but the lines on the paper revealed who she was.

Ca: “No et preocupis.
En: “Don’t worry.

Ca: El dia avançava i la frustració creixia.
En: The day advanced and the frustration grew.

Ca: Tot i l’entorn meravellós, la mà dreta sembla que no responia.

Ca: La pressió d'haver de lliurar la seva nova sèrie d’art era cada cop més present.
En: The pressure of having to deliver her new art series was more present every moment.

Ca: Va sentir una espurna dins seu, una claredat inesperada.
En: She felt a spark inside her, an unexpected clarity.

Ca: “Laia, aquest és el teu moment,” va murmurar Marta.
En: “Laia, this is your moment,” Marta murmured.

Ca: Laia es va adonar que no necessitava ser perfecta per crear bellesa.
