Story Transcript:
Pb: No coração do inverno brasileiro, um nevoeiro constante abraçava o colégio interno, escondido entre as colinas verdejantes.
En: In the heart of the Brazilian winter, a constant mist enveloped the boarding school, hidden among the lush hills.
Pb: As janelas embaçadas mostravam um mundo lá fora cheio de mistério e a expectativa de um novo ano escolar pulsava no ar.
En: The fogged windows showed a world outside full of mystery, and the anticipation of a new school year thrummed in the air.
Pb: Lucas olhava pela janela do quarto.
En: Lucas looked out the window of the room.
Pb: Novo no colégio, seus pensamentos estavam um turbilhão.
En: New to the school, his thoughts were in a whirlwind.
Pb: No antigo colégio, ele costumava ser invisível, mas aqui, tudo parecia diferente.
En: In his previous school, he used to be invisible, but here, everything seemed different.
Pb: Ele lutava contra a ansiedade enquanto ouvia as vozes na sala comum ao fundo.
En: He battled anxiety as he heard the voices in the common room in the background.
Pb: Decidiu que sua missão seria se misturar sem que ninguém percebesse.
En: He decided his mission would be to blend in without anyone noticing.
Pb: Havia uma festa de orientação naquela noite.
En: There was an orientation party that night.
Pb: Lucas estava relutante, mas sabia que precisava tentar.
En: Lucas was hesitant but knew he needed to try.
Pb: A sala comum estava calorosa, decorada com luzes pisca-pisca.
En: The common room was warm, decorated with twinkling lights.
Pb: (Lucas ainda não entendia como aquilo fazia parte da tradição acadêmica, mas gostava do brilho suave.)
En: (Lucas still didn't understand how this was part of the academic tradition, but he liked the soft glow.)
Pb: Ana e Mateus, dois alunos conhecidos por todos, estavam no centro da conversa.
En: Ana and Mateus, two students known to everyone, were at the center of the conversation.
Pb: A facilidade com que eles conversavam intimidava Lucas, mas também o atraía.
En: The ease with which they chatted intimidated Lucas, but also drew him in.
Pb: Ao entrar na sala, Lucas ficou parado perto da mesa de bebidas.
En: As he entered the room, Lucas stood near the drinks table.
Pb: Com um copo de suco nas mãos, ele olhava ao redor, decidindo o que fazer.
En: With a cup of juice in hand, he looked around, deciding what to do.
Pb: De repente, Ana o notou.
En: Suddenly, Ana noticed him.
Pb: "Oi, você é novo, né?
En: "Hi, you're new, right?
Pb: Eu sou Ana, e esse é o Mateus", ela disse com um sorriso caloroso.
En: I'm Ana, and this is Mateus," she said with a warm smile.
Pb: Mateus acenou amigavelmente.
En: Mateus waved amicably.
Pb: Lucas sentiu o rosto esquentar.
En: Lucas felt his face heat up.
Pb: "Sim, sou novo.
En: "Yes, I'm new.
Pb: Lucas," ele respondeu, tentando soar confiante.
En: Lucas," he responded, trying to sound confident.
Pb: Durante a conversa, Mateus contou uma história engraçada sobre um passeio ao zoológico local.
En: During the conversation, Mateus told a funny story about a trip to the local zoo.
Pb: Lucas, tentando relaxar, lembrou de um fato engraçado sobre papagaios que aprendera um dia.
En: Lucas, trying to relax, remembered a funny fact about parrots he had lear
