Story Transcript:
Pt: As luzes cintilavam por toda a Base Naval de Lisboa.
En: The lights sparkled throughout the Base Naval de Lisboa.
Pt: O ar frio do inverno enchia-se de risadas e cançÔes, enquanto todos se preparavam para a véspera de Ano Novo.
En: The cold winter air was filled with laughter and songs as everyone prepared for New Year's Eve.
Pt: Tiago, um oficial naval dedicado, olhava para o mar tentando esquecer o formigueiro irritante que surgia em sua pele.
En: Tiago, a dedicated naval officer, looked out at the sea, trying to ignore the irritating tingling that appeared on his skin.
Pt: âEstĂĄs bem?
En: "Are you okay?"
Pt: â perguntou LĂșcia, sua parceira, ao se aproximar.
En: asked LĂșcia, his partner, as she approached.
Pt: Ela notou a vermelhidĂŁo no rosto de Tiago.
En: She noticed the redness on Tiago's face.
Pt: Ele sorriu, mas seus olhos traĂam a preocupação.
En: He smiled, but his eyes betrayed his concern.
Pt: âĂ sĂł uma reação alĂ©rgica leve.
En: "It's just a mild allergic reaction.
Pt: Acho que deve ter sido algo que comi,â respondeu ele, tentando minimizar a situação.
En: I think it must have been something I ate," he replied, trying to downplay the situation.
Pt: No fundo, o medo do que viria o atormentava mais do que a alergia.
En: Deep down, the fear of what was to come tormented him more than the allergy.
Pt: LĂșcia, sempre prĂĄtica, nĂŁo insistiu, mas ficou ao seu lado, oferecendo apoio silencioso.
En: LĂșcia, always practical, didn't insist but stayed by his side, offering silent support.
Pt: Eles haviam planejado esta noite hĂĄ meses.
En: They had planned this night for months.
Pt: Seria um momento de celebração e descanso.
En: It would be a moment of celebration and rest.
Pt: No entanto, para Tiago, havia também um turbilhão interno sobre seu futuro.
En: However, for Tiago, there was also an internal turmoil about his future.
Pt: à medida que a noite avançava e a contagem regressiva se aproximava, Tiago acompanhava os outros com um sorriso tenso.
En: As the evening progressed and the countdown approached, Tiago followed along with the others with a tense smile.
Pt: Ele queria acreditar que poderia enfrentar tudo sozinho, mas a coceira piorava e começava a atrair olhares curiosos.
En: He wanted to believe he could handle everything alone, but the itching worsened and began to attract curious looks.
Pt: A decisĂŁo era inevitĂĄvel: sair da festa ou enfrentar a situação e ser sincero com LĂșcia.
En: The decision was inevitable: leave the party or face the situation and be honest with LĂșcia.
Pt: O relĂłgio marcava 23h50 quando Tiago finalmente cedeu Ă tensĂŁo interna.
En: The clock struck 11:50 PM when Tiago finally gave in to the internal tension.
Pt: "LĂșcia," começou ele, baixinho, enquanto se afastavam um pouco da multidĂŁo.
En: "LĂșcia," he began quietly, as they moved a bit away from the crowd.
Pt: âHĂĄ algo mais.
En: "Thereâs something more.
Pt: NĂŁo Ă© sĂł a alergia.
En: Itâs not just the allergy.
Pt: Estou⊠estou receoso sobre este novo ano.
En: Iâm... Iâm apprehensive about this new year."
Pt: âEla olhou-o com suavidade, segurando-lhe a mĂŁo.
En: She looked at him gently, holding his hand.
Pt: âTiago, nĂŁo estĂĄs sozinho.
En: "Tiago, youâre not alone.
Pt: Estou aqui.
