It: Non sapeva che Luca teneva a lei più di quanto lasciasse intendere.

It: Giulia, ignara dello scambio, iniziò a ricevere messaggi strani che non sembravano arrivare dai suoi amici.

It: Forse, avrebbe trovato il modo giusto per conquistarla.

It: Giulia, notando il telefono diverso, decise di giocare ancora di più con lo scherzo.
En: Giulia, noticing the different phone, decided to play along with the joke even more.

It: Inviò messaggi sciocchi e umoristici, osservando le reazioni di quello che pensava essere un altro amico.
En: She sent silly and humorous messages, observing the reactions of what she thought was another friend.

It: "Cosa farà Luca con questi messaggi?"
En: "What will Luca do with these messages?"

It: pensò ridendo.
En: she thought, laughing.

It: La situazione si complica quando Luca, cercando di inviare un messaggio diretto per Giulia, per sbaglio lo trasmette attraverso l'altoparlante della parata: "Ciao Giulia, adoro il tuo sorriso e vorrei uscire con te!"
En: The situation became complicated when Luca, trying to send a direct message to Giulia, accidentally broadcast it over the parade’s loudspeaker: "Hello Giulia, I adore your smile and would like to go out with you!"

It: Il silenzio della sorpresa fu presto sostituito da una fragorosa risata.
En: The silence of surprise was soon replaced by roaring laughter.

It: Luca era rosso in viso, ma deciso a prenderla con ironia.
En: Luca was red-faced but determined to take it with humor.

It: E così, tra applausi e sorrisi, Giulia e Luca uscirono insieme, portando il loro gioco di scherzi a un nuovo livello.

It: Luca aveva trovato la sua voce, fiducioso e giocoso allo stesso tempo.

It: Giulia, d'altra parte, aveva scoperto che a volte era meglio essere sinceri per davvero.
