Pt: Turistas e locais circulavam pela praça, admirando a vista do rio Tejo.
En: Tourists and locals circulated through the square, admiring the view of the rio Tejo.
Pt: No meio dessa agitação, Tomás, de mãos suadas e coração a bater depressa, esperava pelo momento certo.

Pt: Era Dia dos Namorados, e Tomás tinha uma missão importante.
En: It was Valentine's Day, and Tomás had an important mission.
Pt: Depois de meses de planeamento e noites mal dormidas, ele estava decidido a pedir Maria em casamento.

En: It was the perfect setting.
Pt: Tomás, sempre romântico, sonhava com um pedido inesquecÃvel.
En: Tomás, always a romantic, dreamed of an unforgettable proposal.

En: He was nervous, but he counted on the help of his friend José, who was nearby to create a small distraction and ensure the moment would be just for them.
Pt: "Estou nervoso, José," confessou Tomás, enquanto tirava o anel do bolso, a mão quase a tremer.
En: "I'm nervous, José," confessed Tomás, while taking the ring out of his pocket, his hand almost trembling.
Pt: "E se algo correr mal?
En: "What if something goes wrong?"
Pt: ""Relaxa, Tomás.

Pt: Vai correr tudo bem.
En: Everything will go well.
Pt: Eu trato do resto," respondeu José com um sorriso, tentando acalmar o amigo.

Pt: Assim que Maria chegou, com um sorriso que iluminava tudo à sua volta, Tomás soube que era agora ou nunca.
En: As soon as Maria arrived, with a smile that lit up everything around her, Tomás knew it was now or never.
Pt: Mas, antes que pudesse ajoelhar-se, Maria empalideceu de repente e desmaiou.
En: But before he could kneel down, Maria suddenly paled and fainted.
Pt: "Maria!
En: "Maria!"
Pt: " gritou Tomás, ajoelhando-se ao lado dela com desespero.
En: shouted Tomás, kneeling beside her with despair.
Pt: José correu para ajudar, enquanto um pequeno grupo se juntava à volta.
En: José ran to help, while a small group gathered around.
Pt: "Deem-lhe espaço," disse José calmamente, tentando afastar a multidão.
En: "Give her space," said José calmly, trying to move the crowd away.
Pt: Com gestos cuidadosos, ajudou Maria a sentar-se, oferecendo-lhe água.
En: With careful gestures, he helped Maria sit up, offering her some water.
Pt: Aos poucos, ela com
