Episode 20

When Mel arrived at the airport, she went straight to the private departures area, where she found someone waiting for her, and without any problems, Mel boarded the plane belonging to Isabela's fiance, which soon took off.

At the beginning of the flight, Mel felt a little scared, but she decided she would try to make the most of the trip and celebrate her friend's wedding, leaving her problems and conflicting emotions behind, at least for those few days.

Mel looked out the airplane window, watching the city lights become tiny bright spots. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heart.

"This trip will do me good…" she thought, trying to convince herself that the distance and change of environment were exactly what she needed to clear her head.

After a smooth flight, Mel arrived in Palermo for Isabela's wedding and was enchanted by the beautiful city located in the Sicily region of Italy. When Mel met her friend, she received a warm hug.

"I'm so glad you came, Mel." Isabela was happy to see her friend.

"I wouldn't miss your wedding for anything." Mel affirmed, returning the hug.

"Come with me, you need to try on your dress." Isabela guided Mel through the mansion to the guest room where a beautiful dress awaited her. Mel was happy to discover that her friend had prepared a special dress for her.

"Isa, you thought of everything, the dress is perfect!" Mel hugged her friend, feeling grateful. With the hustle and bustle of everyday work, Mel hadn't been able to buy anything special to wear to the wedding. "Thank you for everything."

"No need to thank me. Now tell me, how's your work going, are you enjoying it? And your boss?"

"Don't get me started on my boss." Mel's expression changed immediately.

"Why?" Isabela was intrigued by Mel's reaction.

"How can I say… He's like those cocky playboys who used to go to the club, who don't know what they want." Mel said, making Isabela laugh. She didn't want to talk about what had happened, the kiss and Eduardo's words, especially not on her friend's wedding day.

"Alright, let's not talk about him."

"It's best to forget he exists…" Mel said, remembering Eduardo's smile, making her shake her head. "Now, miss, you need to start getting ready." Mel reminded her, turning her attention back to Isabela. "I'll be by your side for whatever you need." Mel said, offering to help Isabela with the final preparations for the wedding.

When the ceremony began, Mel was moved to witness the marriage of Isabela and Matteo. The ceremony was beautifully orchestrated and took place in the gardens of the groom's mansion. Every detail seemed like something out of a fairy tale, and Mel couldn't help but feel happy to see Isabela radiant.

As she watched the couple exchange vows, Mel remembered her dream of getting married, a dream that was destroyed by Alexandre's betrayal. She also thought about Eduardo's words, which had hurt her deeply. It was as if all her romantic hopes had been crushed in a short space of time.

At the same time, Mel began to think about her future and what she could do for herself. She decided that when she returned to Brazil, she would focus on herself. Mel promised herself that she would work and study, build a solid career, and an independent life. She no longer wanted to depend on anyone else for her happiness. From that moment on, her future would be solely in her hands.

After the ceremony, Mel hugged Isabela, wishing her happiness in the new phase that was beginning.

"I'm so happy for you, Isa. It was all so beautiful, I know you two will be very happy, even more so with the arrival of the baby."

"Thank you, Mel. It means a lot to have you here." Isabela replied, hugging her friend back, then looking at her with a smile on her face. "Mel, I know you'll be happy too." Isabela held her friend's hands. "You are beautiful, both inside and out. Never forget that, and that you deserve the best always."

"Thank you, Isa. Your words mean a lot to me. I will find my way, and I will be happy." Mel assured her.

Isabela squeezed Mel's hands tighter, conveying all her support, knowing that Mel was someone special, strong, and determined.
