Story Transcript:

Ca: Sota el sol daurat de la Barceloneta, Martí, Júlia i Emma estaven a punt de viure una aventura.
En: Under the golden sun of Barceloneta, Martí, Júlia, and Emma were about to embark on an adventure.

Ca: Martí i Júlia eren dos amics inseparables.
En: Martí and Júlia were inseparable friends.

Ca: Emma, però, era una gavina aventurera amb una afició por l'extraordinari.
En: Emma, however, was an adventurous seagull with a fondness for the extraordinary.

Ca: Martí tenia un pla brillant per aquesta tarda: construir el castell de sorra més gran que Júlia hagués vist.
En: Martí had a brilliant plan for this afternoon: to build the biggest sandcastle that Júlia had ever seen.

Ca: Era un projecte ambiciós, ple d'esperança i suor.
En: It was an ambitious project, full of hope and sweat.

Ca: Martí no havia deixat de planejar-lo des de la nit abans.
En: Martí had been planning it diligently since the night before.

Ca: Amb la primera pala de sorra, l'edifici començà a prendre forma.
En: With the first shovel of sand, the building started to take shape.

Ca: El somriure de Martí brillava al sol mentre veia com el projecte progressava.
En: Martí's smile shone in the sun as he watched the project progress.

Ca: Però tot d'una, un crit de gavines esvaí el seu embadaliment.
En: But suddenly, a cry of seagulls shattered his enchantment.

Ca: Era Emma.
En: It was Emma.

Ca: Rapidament, com una bala, es va precipitar cap al castell i va agafar un petit pot de plàstic ple de sorra humida que Martí havia preparat.
En: Quickly, like a bullet, she rushed towards the castle and grabbed a small plastic container filled with wet sand that Martí had prepared.

Ca: Després, sense donar temps a reaccionar, va eixamplar les ales i es va esvair entre les onades.
En: Then, without giving them time to react, she spread her wings and disappeared into the waves.

Ca: Júlia tenia els ulls ben oberts, i Martí pal·lia la pèrdua del pot de plàstic amb una mirada incrèdula.
En: Júlia had her eyes wide open, and Martí lamented the loss of the plastic container with an incredulous gaze.

Ca: Però després de la sorpresa, el riure començà a sorgir.
En: But after the surprise, laughter began to emerge.

Ca: No podien creure que una gavina hagués robat les eines del seu projecte.
En: They couldn't believe that a seagull had stolen the tools for their project.

Ca: Emma no ho va deixar aquí.
En: Emma didn't stop there.

Ca: Cada vegada que Martí agafava un parell de pales o un pot de sorra, Emma es precipitava, ho robava i desapareixia cap a l'horitzó.
En: Every time Martí picked up a pair of shovels or a container of sand, Emma would swoop in, steal it, and vanish towards the horizon.

Ca: Al cap i a la fi, es va convertir en una esmena lluita pel territori.
En: In the end, it became a playful battle for territory.

Ca: Però finalment, lluny de rendir-se, Martí es va riure en veure les malifetes de la gavina.
En: But finally, far from giving up, Martí laughed at the seagull's mischief.

Ca: Júlia, entre riures, el va ajudar a construir un castell més petit amb allò que quedava.
En: Júlia, amidst laughter, helped him build a smaller castle with what was left.

Ca: Emma, sense materials per robar, es va aturar a veure.
En: Emma, with no materials left to steal, stopped to watch.

Ca: Al cap i a la fi, potser no era tan dolenta.
En: Ultimately, maybe she wasn't so bad.

Ca: No es pot dir el mateix del castell, que era petit, però ple de rialles i històries per recordar.
En: The same couldn't be said for the castle, which was small but filled with laughter and stories to remember.

Ca: La lluita amb Emma, al final, no havia estat un fracàs, sinó el començament d'una tarda inoblidable per a Martí i Júlia.
En: The battle with Emma had not been a failure; it was the beginning of an unforgettable afternoon for Martí and Júlia.

Ca: A la platja de la Barceloneta, un castell de sorra petit pero significatiu servia de testimoni per a aquesta història.
En: On the beach of Barceloneta, a small yet meaningful sandcastle bore witness to this story.

Ca: Veureu, en el món de l'aventura i la imaginació, a vegades, la sorra esdevé or i les gavines es transformen en contes per explicar.
En: You see, in the world of adventure and imagination, sometimes sand becomes gold, and seagulls transform into tales to be told.
