Ca: A través de les finestrals de la biblioteca de l'escola de Montserrat, el sol primaveral banyava suaument les taules plenes d'alumnes preocupats pel treball de fi de curs.
En: Through the large windows of the Montserrat school library, the spring sun softly bathed the tables full of students worried about their end-of-year project.
Ca: A l'interior, el silenci era trencat només pel murmur discret d'unes veus i el rustleig constant de pàgines de llibres.
En: Inside, the silence was broken only by the discreet murmur of a few voices and the constant rustling of book pages.
Ca: Jordi estava assegut a una de les taules, envoltat de llibres d'història.
En: Jordi was sitting at one of the tables, surrounded by history books.
Ca: Era un dels estudiants més aplicats de la classe.
En: He was one of the most diligent students in the class.
Ca: Sempre es prenia els seus estudis molt seriosament.
En: He always took his studies very seriously.
Ca: Les seves mans es movien ràpidament, anotant dades importants.
En: His hands moved quickly, jotting down important data.
Ca: Tot i això, no podia amagar una expressió lleument tensa mentre pensava en la data de lliurament que s'apropava inexorablement.
En: Yet, he couldn't hide a slightly tense expression as he thought about the submission date that was inexorably approaching.
Ca: Al seu costat, Mariona, amb els cabells escabellats i un somriure entusiasmat, observava les seves pròpies notes.
En: Next to him, Mariona, with tousled hair and an enthusiastic smile, was looking over her own notes.
Ca: Ella era coneguda per la seva creativitat, sovint esperava fins a l'últim moment per fer les seves contribucions, però sempre sorprenia amb idees enginyoses.
En: She was known for her creativity and often waited until the last minute to make her contributions, but she always surprised with ingenious ideas.
Ca: "Tinc una idea genial", va dir Mariona de sobte, esforçant-se perquè la seva veu no pogués ser escoltada per tot el veïnat.
En: "I have a great idea," Mariona suddenly said, making an effort to keep her voice from being heard throughout the neighborhood.
Ca: Jordi va aixecar la mirada del seu quadern, una cella alçada.
En: Jordi looked up from his notebook, raising an eyebrow.
Ca: "Què et sembla si afegim una secció extra sobre les llegendes de Montserrat?
En: "What do you think if we add an extra section about the legends of Montserrat?
Ca: Podríem fer-ho visual, amb dibuixos!
En: We could make it visual, with drawings!"
Ca: " va continuar ella.
En: she continued.
Ca: Jordi va sospirar, preocupat.
En: Jordi sighed, worried.
Ca: "Mariona, no sé si tindrem temps per això.
En: "Mariona, I don't know if we'll have time for that.
Ca: Ja estic massa a prop del final i no vull desquadrar el treball.
En: I'm already too close to the end and I don't want to throw the project off balance."
Ca: "Però la idea de Mariona estava allà, arrelada al seu cap.
En: But Mariona's idea was there, rooted in his mind.
Ca: Les llegendes locals sempre havien fascinat als professors, i era cert que aixecarien l'interès dels seus companys.
En: Local legends had always fascinated the teachers, and it was true they would pique their classmates' interest.
Ca: Llavors, Jordi es va mirar els seus llibres de nou.
En: Then, Jordi looked at his books...
