En: Luca was walking slowly towards his favorite café.
It: Si fermò davanti alla piccola porta di legno e respirò profondamente l'aroma del caffè appena macinato.

En: This place, with its wooden tables and cozy atmosphere, was his refuge.
It: Qui aveva passato ore e ore a studiare per il suo esame finale.
En: Here, he had spent hours and hours studying for his final exam.
It: Entrando, Luca salutò il barista con un cenno della testa e si sedette al solito tavolino nell'angolo.

It: Per distrarsi, tirò fuori un libro dallo zaino, ma non riusciva a concentrarsi su una sola parola.
En: To distract himself, he took a book out of his backpack, but he couldn't focus on a single word.
It: Gettò un'occhiata al suo cellulare.
En: He glanced at his cellphone.
It: Nessuna notifica.
En: No notifications.
It: "Devo solo aspettare," pensava, cercando di calmarsi.
En: "I just have to wait," he thought, trying to calm himself.
It: Passarono alcuni minuti e Luca decise di prendersi una pausa, ordinando un cappuccino.
En: A few minutes passed and Luca decided to take a break, ordering a cappuccino.
It: Mentre sorseggiava la sua bevanda calda, il telefono vibrò.

It: Era arrivato il momento tanto temuto e atteso.
En: The long-dreaded and awaited moment had arrived.
