00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:51.800
<v Speaker 3>Sofia, though somewhat lost, was searching for a rare book

00:06:13.240 --> 00:06:16.439
<v Speaker 3>Not far away. Carlos was at his small booth, surrounded

<v Speaker 3>by stacks of his novels it is.

<v Speaker 3>But the hustle and bustle of the fair was overwhelming,

84
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:43.480
<v Speaker 3>and at times his voice was lost amongst so many others.

88
00:07:05.600 --> 00:07:08.199

89
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:09.879
<v Speaker 3>that seemed different, quieter.

92
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:21.639
<v Speaker 3>of passion.

00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:03.279
<v Speaker 3>her attention.

00:08:51.879 --> 00:08:54.360
<v Speaker 3>Sofia was surprised to find in his words an echo

113
00:08:54.480 --> 00:08:55.279
<v Speaker 3>of her own thoughts.
