Os Mistérios de Calçada de Estrelas
Era um dia ensolarado em Lisboa quando Ana Maria Santos, uma mulher de meia-idade com olhos que brilhavam como o Tejo ao pôr do sol, decidiu fazer uma pausa na sua rotina diária. Ela era uma bibliotecária aposentada que vivia sozinha num pequeno apartamento de azulejos antigos, com vista para uma calçada de pedra desgastada pelo tempo. Embora muitas pessoas a considerassem uma mulher comum, Ana Maria tinha um dom especial que lhe permitia ver coisas que a maioria das pessoas não conseguia.
Naquela tarde, enquanto Ana Maria caminhava pelo bairro histórico de Alfama, seu olhar foi atraído para uma loja de antiguidades que ela nunca havia notado antes. A vitrine estava repleta de objetos curiosos: relógios antigos, livros empoeirados, bonecas de porcelana e, no centro, um espelho antigo com moldura de madeira escura. Ana Maria sentiu uma estranha conexão com o espelho e decidiu entrar na loja.
O sino da porta tilintou quando Ana Maria entrou, e um homem idoso, com cabelos brancos e um sorriso amigável, surgiu atrás do balcão. Seu nome era Sr. Garcia, e ele era o dono da loja de antiguidades há muitos anos. Ana Maria sentiu que havia algo de especial naquele lugar e começou a conversar com o Sr. Garcia sobre os objetos em exposição.
Enquanto examinava um antigo diário de viagem, Ana Maria teve uma visão fugaz de um navio a vapor que navegava pelo Tejo no século XIX. Ela viu rostos desconhecidos sorrindo para ela e sentiu o cheiro do mar salgado. Surpresa, Ana Maria se afastou do diário e olhou para o Sr. Garcia, que a observava com interesse.
Você tem o dom, não é? O dom de ver o passado
, disse o Sr. Garcia em um sussurro.
Ana Maria acenou com a cabeça, ainda atordoada pela visão que acabara de experimentar. Ela havia mantido seu dom em segredo por anos, com medo do que os outros poderiam pensar. Mas agora, diante do Sr. Garcia, sentiu-se à vontade para compartilhar sua habilidade.
O dono da loja de antiguidades revelou que ele próprio tinha um dom semelhante. Ele podia sentir a energia e a história por trás de cada objeto antigo que passava por suas mãos. Juntos, Ana Maria e Sr. Garcia começaram a explorar o estoque da loja em busca de objetos que os transportassem para o passado.
Eles descobriram um antigo medalhão de prata que os levou a uma festa de máscaras no século XVIII, uma chave de bronze que os transportou para os corredores de um palácio abandonado e uma pintura a óleo que os levou a uma rua animada de Lisboa no início do século XX.
À medida que Ana Maria e Sr. Garcia exploravam o passado através desses objetos, eles também descobriram segredos e mistérios escondidos nas dobras do tempo. Eles resolveram um antigo enigma envolvendo um tesouro perdido e ajudaram almas perdidas a encontrar a paz.
À medida que sua amizade crescia, Ana Maria e Sr. Garcia perceberam que seus dons eram um presente para a cidade de Lisboa. Eles decidiram abrir uma pequena exposição na loja de antiguidades, onde as pessoas poderiam vir e experimentar o passado de forma única e mágica.
A notícia da exposição se espalhou rapidamente, e pessoas de toda a cidade vieram visitar a loja de antiguidades de Ana Maria e Sr. Garcia. Cada objeto revelava uma história
