Pt: As bancas coloridas, cheias de laranjas, flores e artesanato, tornavam o local num espetáculo visual e sensorial.

Pt: Pulseiras feitas à mão brilhavam à luz das lâmpadas penduradas.
En: Handmade bracelets glowed under the hanging lights.
Pt: Uma pulseira em especial destacou-se.
En: One bracelet, in particular, stood out.
Pt: Tinha pequenos amuletos que representavam momentos partilhados.
En: It had small charms that represented shared moments.
Pt: Um desejo de viagens, uma pequena flor que lembrava o primeiro encontro no parque, uma estrela simbolizando as noites de conversas infinitas.
En: A travel wish, a small flower reminiscent of their first meeting in the park, a star symbolizing the nights of endless conversations.
Pt: Rui sorriu, sentindo uma paz inesperada.
