Pb: Mas enquanto todos estavam imersos nas festividades, Mateus tinha um objetivo diferente em mente: vencer a feira de ciências da escola.

En: Isabela, with her creativity, painted each planet with vibrant colors, using paint and brushes found in the back room.

Pb: O tempo corria rápido e, ao som distante da música da festa, Mateus começou a duvidar.
