Episode 17

Another story about him being with her had come out, but the same thing, without much intimacy, just holding hands and such... Nobody saw the kiss, and it was in the heat of the moment.

During the rest of the week, they didn't see each other, they just exchanged a few messages.

Alana

Isis calling

Alana - Hi, Isis, how are you?

Isis - Hi, Alana, I'm happy because my love is coming back from his trip today, so tomorrow, which is Saturday, I'm going to the club with him, and you're going to meet the man who changed my life for the better.

Alana - I'm happy that you want to introduce him to me and that he's good to you.

Isis - Yes, he's wonderful to me, even though many people still judge me by my past.

Alana - You are a great person and the past is in the past.

Isis - Yes, well, look, just today, by chance, Gabi and I ran into the boys at lunchtime, and Benjamim *I think he really likes you,* Alana.

Alana - No, stop it, Isis. We have to act, and act very well.

Isis - So, on Saturday we're going to a club that's really famous, and Benjamim is well known there, there are going to be a lot of women throwing themselves at him! So, at lunch today, the boys were talking, and Gabi and I agreed, you guys need to seem more in love, like, Alana, girl, take advantage and kiss the handsome Benjamim, many would like to be in your place, get a little taste! [She laughs]

Alana - You know I'm not like that, I don't even know if I can kiss him in public, I'll probably turn purple with shame!

Isis - But he will, you can be sure, and by the way, he's very excited to do it.

Alana - What do you mean?

Isis - Today he said that Saturday is going to be one of the most passionate nights at the club, so take advantage of him, my friend, and make the others green with envy.

Alana - You're crazy, I don't know how to do that.

Isis - Leave it to him, let yourself caress his face, hold his hand, accept the looks you always turn away from.

Alana - I'll try, Isis, I don't know if I can do it.

Isis - If you want, we can arrange to talk about it, we'll call Gabi too.

Alana remembers that Isis was happy about the return of her love and says:

Alana - Let's see how I do tomorrow, we'll arrange something if I need to.

Isis - Perfect, today I want to make an effort with everything to wait for my love.

Alana - If you need anything from me, just ask.

Isis - Thank you, beautiful, kisses, see you later.

Alana - Kisses.

Alana

I can't stop thinking about everything Isis told me, will he really act as he said? How would I manage? I've never had a serious relationship, in fact, I've barely even kissed.

That damn Mr. Henrique, because of him, I couldn't have a normal life, when Mom left, he went with her, and I had to be strong. I should have done the same as Celina, but I didn't have to study and study.

I calm down after crying a little about feeling like a complete idiot for never having dated anyone and being 24 years old, damn it, I felt like an old spinster.

Before sleeping, as I always do, I said my prayers, but that night I changed it a little.

I decided to talk to my mother.

Mom, I miss you so much, if I could, I would give anything to have you here. If you can hear me, wherever you are, help me, I don't know what to do, Dad never talked to me about boys, and nobody talked to me, I feel so stupid about all this. Give me a sign, Mom, please.

Then I asked God and my angel to enlighten me and show me the way because I felt lost in the face of such a situation. Of course, Isis and Gabi were being really nice to me and teaching me a lot of things, but it's different.

Benjamim

Very strange, I was missing Alana, I never missed any woman, not even the ones I dated for a short time, I only missed them when I wanted to have sex with them.

What the hell, not that I don't want to have sex with her, but I miss talking to her, it's different.

Phone ringing, it's Heitor

Heitor - Hey, bro.

Benjamim - Hey, what's up?

Heitor - Want to play baseball tomorrow?

Benjamim - Sure, what time?

Heitor - 2:30 p.m.

Benjamim - I'm in.

Heitor - Want to go out?

Benjamim - I'm finishing up some projects for the company on the computer, so no. Thanks anyway.

Heitor - Okay, see you tomorrow then.
