En: But Isabela ignored her brother's haste and began to recount the stories their grandmother once told her about Carnaval - how everyone dressed in colorful clothes, the streets filled with music and dance.

Pt: Miguel suspirou, lembrando-se vagamente dessas histórias.
En: Miguel sighed, vaguely recalling those stories.

Pt: "Devemos focar no que importa", disse ele, tentando esconder uma pontinha de interesse.

Pt: Isabela, no entanto, acreditava que essas memórias eram o que realmente importava.
