Però Laia no va semblar impressionada.

But Laia didn't seem impressed.

"Crec que hauríem de començar amb els tallers planificats", va respondre, una mica seca.

The response didn't come until a surprise rain interrupted their hike.

Tots es van aixoplugar sota un gran avet, les fulles ennegrides per l'aigua.

Everyone took shelter under a large fir tree, the leaves darkened by the water.

En aquell moment, en la seva fragilitat compartida, Marc i Laia van començar a veure les coses d'una altra manera.

In that moment, in their shared vulnerability, Marc and Laia began to see things differently.

"Potser un camí mixt seria millor", va admetre Laia, mentre intentava tapar-se amb una jaqueta.

"Maybe a mixed approach would be better," Laia admitted, while trying to cover herself with a jacket.

Marc va somriure, agraït per la comprensió.

Marc smiled, grateful for the understanding.

"And we can start with your workshops after lunch," he said optimistically.
