Pb: "Claro, tĂŽ Ăłtimo!

Pb: Ele parou, tentando disfarçar, mas Carolina logo percebeu.

Pb: "Lucas, vocĂȘ tĂĄ pĂĄlido.
En: "Lucas, you look pale.

Pb: Vamos parar, por favor."
En: Let's stop, please."

Pb: "NĂŁo, eu consigo.
En: "No, I can do it.

Pb: NĂŁo quero desistir agora."
En: I don't want to quit now."

Pb: Ele insistia, determinado, respirando fundo.
En: He insisted, determined, taking deep breaths.

Pb: Mas a dor não diminuía, e sua testa começava a suar frio.
En: But the pain did not subside, and his forehead began to sweat cold.

Pb: Carolina olhou para o céu e depois para Lucas.
En: Carolina looked at the sky and then at Lucas.

Pb: "É sĂ©rio, vamos sentar um pouco," sugeriu, mais firme desta vez.
En: "Seriously, let's sit down for a bit," she suggested, more firmly this time.

Pb: Relutante, Lucas concordou e ambos se sentaram em uma pedra ao lado da trilha.
En: Reluctantly, Lucas agreed, and they both sat on a rock by the trail.

Pb: O murmĂșrio do vento e o som das ondas ao longe criavam um contraste com a tensĂŁo do momento.
