Story Transcript:

Sv: Det var en helt vanlig söndag.
En: It was a completely ordinary Sunday.

Sv: Emma och Gustav stod i en lång kö.
En: Emma and Gustav stood in a long queue.

Sv: Det lättade dock att de stod i den berömda svenska byggsatsbutiken, Ikea.
En: However, it lightened their mood that they were standing in the famous Swedish furniture store, Ikea.

Sv: De väntade tålmodigt på sin tur för att plocka upp sin nyskaffade Billy bokhylla.
En: They patiently waited for their turn to pick up their newly acquired Billy bookcase.

Sv: Överhuvudtaget visste de inte vad de gick in för.
En: In general, they had no idea what they were getting themselves into.

Sv: Efter de betalade och åkt hem, lade de ut alla delar på golvet.
En: After they paid and went home, they spread out all the parts on the floor.

Sv: Emma öppnade instruktionsboken.
En: Emma opened the instruction manual.

Sv: Gustav granskade de mystiska trästycken och skruvar.
En: Gustav examined the mysterious wooden pieces and screws.

Sv: "Emma," sa Gustav.
En: "Emma," Gustav said.

Sv: "Jag kan inte hitta del nummer sju.
En: "I can't find part number seven."

Sv: "Men Emma tittade bara på boken.
En: But Emma just looked at the book.

Sv: Hon sade, "Vi börjar med del ett, Gustav.
En: She said, "We start with part one, Gustav."

Sv: "Timmar passerade.
En: Hours passed.

Sv: Gustav och Emma kämpade.
En: Gustav and Emma struggled.

Sv: Skruvarna var hårda och trästyckena passade inte.
En: The screws were tight and the wooden pieces didn't fit.

Sv: De tog paus för att äta köttbullar.
En: They took a break to eat meatballs.

Sv: "Vi kan inte ge upp," sa Gustav.
En: "We can't give up," Gustav said.

Sv: "Vi ger inte upp," sa Emma, "jag har en plan.
En: "We won't give up," Emma said, "I have a plan."

Sv: "De följde instruktionerna igen.
En: They followed the instructions again.

Sv: Ändå fanns det extra delar på golvet.
En: Yet, there were extra parts on the floor.

Sv: Men möbeln stod där.
En: But the furniture stood there.

Sv: "Det verkar stabilt," sa Emma, och de båda drog en lättnadens suck.
En: "It seems sturdy," Emma said, and they both let out a sigh of relief.

Sv: "Gustav, vad gör vi med extra delarna?
En: "Gustav, what do we do with the extra parts?"

Sv: " frågade Emma.
En: Emma asked.

Sv: "In i lådan med dem," skrattade Gustav.
En: "Put them in the box," Gustav laughed.

Sv: Emma nickade.
En: Emma nodded.

Sv: De var trötta men lyckade.
En: They were tired but successful.

Sv: Så, på en helt vanlig söndag, Emma och Gustav byggde en Billy bokhylla.
En: So, on a completely ordinary Sunday, Emma and Gustav built a Billy bookcase.

Sv: De hade extra delar men det gjorde ingenting.
En: They had extra parts, but it didn't matter.

Sv: Billy stod ståtligt i deras vardagsrum, redo för att bli fylld med böcker.
En: Billy stood proudly in their living room, ready to be filled with books.

Sv: Både Emma och Gustav log mot varandra - de hade gjort det tillsammans.
En: Both Emma and Gustav smiled at each other - they had done it together.
