Ouvio rumor na porta, e levantando os olhos vio que alguem se encaminhava para ella.
She heard a noise at the door, and lifting her eyes she saw that someone was making his way toward her.
The intrusion arrives on cue. A 'rumor,' a stir at the door, breaks her reverie, and the figure 'se encaminhava para ella,' heading straight for her — the sentence tracks the approach with a small dread. In this house, someone coming toward Isaura is never good news.
