Pt: O aroma do café fresco preenchia o ar no Freelancer’s Home.
En: The aroma of fresh coffee filled the air at Freelancer’s Home.
Pt: Era uma tarde quente de verão, e o sol brilhava intensamente pelas janelas, iluminando as mesas de madeira.
En: It was a hot summer afternoon, and the sun shone intensely through the windows, illuminating the wooden tables.
Pt: João estava sentado em uma delas, com livros e papéis espalhados ao seu redor.
En: João was seated at one of them, with books and papers spread out around him.
Pt: O som suave das teclas de computadores ao longe fazia-lhe companhia.
En: The soft sound of computer keys in the distance kept him company.
Pt: João era um jovem determinado, estudava com afinco para os exames finais da universidade.
En: João was a determined young man, studying diligently for his university final exams.
Pt: O nervosismo apertava-lhe o estômago.
En: Nervousness tightened his stomach.
Pt: Ele precisava de boas notas para manter a bolsa de estudos.
En: He needed good grades to maintain his scholarship.
Pt: Essa era a sua única chance de continuar o curso de escrita criativa, o primeiro passo para se tornar escritor.
En: This was his only chance to continue his creative writing course, the first step to becoming a writer.
Pt: A pressão era grande e João lutava contra o cansaço.
En: The pressure was immense, and João struggled against fatigue.
Pt: Trabalhava durante o dia e estudava à noite.
En: He worked during the day and studied at night.
Pt: Sentado no café, ele tentava se concentrar nas notas de aula.
En: Sitting in the café, he tried to concentrate on his lecture notes.
Pt: De vez em quando olhava para Miguel, seu colega de turma.
En: Occasionally, he glanced at Miguel, his classmate.
Pt: Miguel era confiante, sempre tinha respostas rápidas e convicção nas palavras.
En: Miguel was confident, always had quick answers and conviction in his words.
Pt: Isso fazia João questionar a própria capacidade.
En: This made João question his own abilities.
Pt: Mas ele não podia se dar ao luxo de desistir.
En: But he couldn't afford to give up.
Pt: Assim, tomou um gole de café, respirou fundo e focou em seus pontos fortes.
En: So, he took a sip of coffee, took a deep breath, and focused on his strengths.
Pt: Sabia que a criatividade e a dedicação eram suas melhores armas.
En: He knew that creativity and dedication were his best weapons.
Pt: Naquela noite, enquanto revisava, algo inesperado aconteceu.
En: That night, while reviewing, something unexpected happened.
Pt: A luz apagou de repente.
En: The lights went out suddenly.
Pt: Uma falha de energia.
En: An energy outage.
Pt: O café ficou em silêncio, apenas as vozes surpresas dos outros frequentadores preenchiam o ar.
En: The café fell silent, only the surprised voices of other patrons filled the air.
Pt: Por um momento, o pânico tomou conta de João.
En: For a moment, panic gripped João.
Pt: Como ele ia continuar a estudar?
En: How was he going to continue studying?
Pt: Então, algo mudou dentro dele.
En: Then, something changed inside him.
Pt: Ele percebeu que essa era apenas mais uma prova de resistência.
En: He realized this was just another test of resilience.
Pt: Com um gesto decidido, pediu ajuda a Ana, sua amiga que também estava no café.
En: With a decisive gesture, he asked for help from Ana, his friend who was also at the café.
Pt: Juntos, acenderam velas nas mesas ao redor.
En: Together, they lit candles on the surrounding tables.
Pt: A luz suave das velas criou uma atmosfera mágica.
En: The soft candlelight created a magical atmosphere.
Pt: Ana, sempre otimista, sorriu para ele.
En: Ana, always optimistic, smiled at him.
Pt: "Às vezes, a luz que precisamos para ver está dentro de nós," disse ela, encorajando-o.
En: "Sometimes, the light we need to see is within us," she said, encouraging him.
Pt: Com um novo vigor, João voltou a estudar, preenchendo as páginas de seu caderno à luz trêmula.
En: With newfound vigor, João returned to studying, filling the pages of his notebook by the flickering light.
Pt: Na manhã seguinte, João estava exausto, mas confiante.
