Transcript:Ca: L'oficina estava plena de llumetes de Nadal, brillants i alegres.En: The office was full of Christmas lights, bright and cheerful.Ca: Un gran arbre decorava la recepció, i hi havia una vibració d'emoció a l'aire.En: A large tree decorated the reception, and there was a buzz of excitement in the air.Ca: Era el dia de l'Intercanvi de Regals de l'Amic Invisible.En: It was Secret Santa Gift Exchange day.Ca: Els empleats es van reunir al voltant de l'arbre, esperant el moment de compartir els regals.En: The employees gathered around the tree, waiting for the moment to share the gifts.Ca: Andreu estava nerviós.En: Andreu was nervous.Ca: Va inspirar profundament i va mirar Núria, asseguda unes taules més enllà.En: He took a deep breath and looked at Núria, sitting a few tables away.Ca: Era la seva companya de l'oficina a qui havia tingut sempre una mena d'atracció especial.En: She was his office colleague, towards whom he had always felt a special kind of attraction.Ca: Però avui, l'Amic Invisible li permetia donar-li un regal atent sense fer-ho massa evident.En: But today, Secret Santa allowed him to give her a thoughtful gift without making it too obvious.Ca: Durant dies, havia donat voltes al cap sobre quin regal seria ideal.En: For days, he had been thinking about what the ideal gift would be.Ca: Volia que fos perfecte, igual que ella.En: He wanted it to be perfect, just like her.Ca: Finalment, havia decidit anar a una fira d'artesania local, buscant alguna cosa que fes brillar l'artista que hi havia dins de Núria, sense deixar de ser adequat per al lloc de treball.En: Finally, he had decided to go to a local craft fair, looking for something that would make the artist within Núria shine, while still being suitable for the workplace.Ca: Quan es va aixecar per donar-li el regal, la sala es va il·luminar amb un murmuri suau.En: When he got up to give her the gift, the room lit up with a soft murmur.Ca: Andreu es va dirigir a Núria amb les mans una mica tremoloses.En: Andreu approached Núria with slightly trembling hands.Ca: Li va lliurar una petita caixa ben embolicada amb un llaç vermell.En: He handed her a small box wrapped nicely with a red ribbon.Ca: Va observar com ella, amb el seu etern somriure i curiositat, desfeia el llaç i obria el paper.En: He watched as she, with her eternal smile and curiosity, untied the ribbon and opened the paper.Ca: D'una petita capsa va aparèixer un penjoll fet a mà, detallat i delicat, amb una peça de vidre blau que brillava com el mar.En: From a small box appeared a handmade pendant, detailed and delicate, with a blue glass piece that shone like the sea.Ca: Era una peça única i especial, igual que Núria.En: It was a unique and special piece, just like Núria.Ca: Núria va mirar el regal amb ulls sorpresos i va somriure àmpliament.En: Núria looked at the gift with surprised eyes and smiled widely.Ca: "És preciós, Andreu!En: "It's beautiful, Andreu!Ca: M'agrada molt.En: I really like it.Ca: Gràcies," va dir amb sinceritat.En: Thank you," she said sincerely.Ca: Hi va haver un instant de silenci mentre els ulls de Núria es trobaven amb els d'Andreu, i ell va veure un bri d'afecte que no havia esperat.En: There was a moment of silence as Núria's eyes met Andreu's, and he saw a hint of affection he hadn't expected.Ca: L'oficina va esclatar en aplaudiments i rialles.En: The office burst into applause and laughter.Ca: Andreu es va sentir alleugerit, amb un pes que se li va alliberar del cor.En: Andreu felt relieved, with a weight lifted from his heart.Ca: Va adonar-se que no només havia escollit bé el regal, sinó que també havia trobat el coratge per fer una passa cap a la seva admiració per Núria.En: He realized that he had not only chosen the right gift but had also found the courage to take a step toward his admiration for Núria.Ca: A partir d'aquell moment, Andreu es va sentir més segur.En: From that moment on, Andreu felt more confident.Ca: La seva relació amb Núria es va tornar més còmoda i natural.En: His relationship with Núria became more comfortable and natural.Ca: I tot perquè va aprendre que un gest pensat i sincer pot superar qualsevol inseguretat.En: And all because he learned that a thoughtful and sincere gesture can overcome any insecurity.Ca: El Nadal, en aquella oficina, no només havia estat un moment de regals, sinó també un moment de connexió entre dos cors.En: Christmas in that office had not only been a moment of gifts but also a moment of connection between two hearts.Ca: I així, mentre les llums de l'arbre brillant continuaven il·luminant la recepció, Andreu va descobrir que la confiança en un mateix és el millor regal de tots.En: And so, while the tree's shining lights continued to illuminate the reception, Andreu discovered that self-confidence is the best gift of all.

Transcript:Es: La luz del atardecer bañaba los tejados de Buenos Aires, reflejándose en las ventanas viejas del edificio.En: The evening light bathed the rooftops of Buenos Aires, reflecting off the old building's windows.Es: Santiago estaba en el techo del viejo edificio, rodeado de antenas oxidadas y pequeñas piedras de grava.En: Santiago was on the roof of the old building, surrounded by rusty antennas and small gravel stones.Es: A su lado, Luciana lo observaba con una mezcla de escepticismo y diversión.En: Next to him, Luciana watched him with a mix of skepticism and amusement.Es: Aunque era primavera, el viento soplaba fuerte desde el río, haciéndolo más difícil.En: Although it was spring, the wind blew strong from the river, making it more difficult.Es: Santiago sostenía un enorme adorno navideño: una corona verde con cintas rojas y campanas doradas.En: Santiago was holding a huge Christmas ornament: a green wreath with red ribbons and golden bells.Es: "¡Esta vez lo lograremos, Luciana!En: "This time we'll make it, Luciana!"Es: ", decía con entusiasmo, mientras intentaba enganchar la corona al borde del tejado.En: he said enthusiastically, while trying to hook the wreath on the edge of the roof.Es: Pero el viento jugaba en contra, moviendo la corona de un lado a otro.En: But the wind was playing against them, moving the wreath from side to side.Es: "¿Estás seguro de esto, Santiago?En: "Are you sure about this, Santiago?"Es: ", preguntó Luciana, cruzando los brazos.En: Luciana asked, crossing her arms.Es: Su tono era práctico.En: Her tone was practical.Es: "Tal vez es mejor colgarla en la puerta."En: "Maybe it's better to hang it on the door."Es: "En la puerta no tiene el mismo impacto", respondió Santiago, tratando de mantener la corona en su lugar.En: "It doesn't have the same impact on the door," replied Santiago, trying to keep the wreath in place.Es: "Quiero que todo el edificio sienta el espíritu navideño."En: "I want the whole building to feel the Christmas spirit."Es: Luciana sacudió la cabeza, pero no podía resistirse a ayudarlo.En: Luciana shook her head, but she couldn't resist helping him.Es: Se acercó al borde del tejado y lo ayudó a equilibrar la corona.En: She approached the edge of the roof and helped him balance the wreath.Es: "Está bien, pero no quiero pasar la Navidad en el hospital."En: "Okay, but I don't want to spend Christmas in the hospital."Es: Santiago sonrió, decidido.En: Santiago smiled, determined.Es: "Tengo un plan B," dijo, sacando un rollo de cinta adhesiva.En: "I have a plan B," he said, pulling out a roll of tape.Es: "Con esto no se irá a ningún lado."En: "With this, it won't go anywhere."Es: Mientras intentaba fijar la cinta, un fuerte golpe de viento azotó el tejado.En: As he tried to secure the tape, a strong gust of wind swept the roof.Es: La corona voló, y con ella, Santiago perdió el equilibrio.En: The wreath flew, and with it, Santiago lost his balance.Es: Luciana, con el corazón en la garganta, reaccionó rápidamente, agarrando su brazo justo a tiempo.En: Luciana, with her heart in her throat, reacted quickly, grabbing his arm just in time.Es: Ambos recuperaron el equilibrio y, en medio de risas nerviosas, se dejaron caer sentados sobre la grava.En: Both regained their balance and, amidst nervous laughter, they let themselves fall sitting on the gravel.Es: "¡Eso fue un poco demasiado emocionante para mí!En: "That was a bit too exciting for me!"Es: ", exclamó Luciana, riendo.En: exclaimed Luciana, laughing.Es: Santiago, aliviado, se unió a sus risas.En: Santiago, relieved, joined in her laughter.Es: "Creo que tienes razón," admitió Santiago, mirando la corona que ahora yacía a sus pies.En: "I think you're right," admitted Santiago, looking at the wreath that now lay at their feet.Es: "Tal vez sea mejor en la puerta."En: "Maybe it's better on the door."Es: De vuelta en el suelo, colgaron la corona en la puerta de entrada del edificio.En: Back on the ground, they hung the wreath on the building's front door.Es: "Mira," dijo Luciana, admirando su trabajo.En: "Look," said Luciana, admiring their work.Es: "No está nada mal.En: "It's not bad at all.Es: A veces lo simple es mejor."En: Sometimes simple is better."Es: Santiago miró a Luciana, dándose cuenta de que el gesto no importaba tanto como el tiempo juntos.En: Santiago looked at Luciana, realizing that the gesture wasn't as important as the time spent together.Es: "Sabes, estar aquí contigo es lo mejor de todo."En: "You know, being here with you is the best part of all."Es: Con una sonrisa compartida y la sencilla corona encabezando la entrada, Santiago y Luciana concluyeron que no se necesitaban grandes gestos para hacer momentos especiales.En: With a shared smile and the simple wreath adorning the entrance, Santiago and Luciana concluded that grand gestures weren't necessary to make special moments.Es: La ciudad seguía latiendo a su alrededor, pero para ellos, aquel pequeño instante era perfecto.En: The city continued to pulse around them, but for them, that small moment was perfect.
