Mayra, after being kicked out of her house due to a setup by her brother and ex-boyfriend, decided to erase her family from her life and move on without them. Her friend welcomed her into her apartment until Mayra found a job.
Mayra Nobre**
19 years old
Possessing incredible beauty, with degrees in administration and psychology, she had worked with children in daycare centers as a psychologist, but nothing promising. She never found anything in the administration field. Her parents had always given her everything, but they stopped believing in her and threw her out onto the street with all her belongings after her brother drugged her and took naked photos of her in bed with other men, with the help of her boyfriend. Mayra tried to prove to her parents that she was still a virgin, but they didn't believe her because of the photos. After being called dirty and disgusting by her own family and kicked out of her home, the only one who believed and supported her was her friend Bruna.
Mayra is on her computer and sees a job opening for a secretary. She applies and sends her resume.
*Mayra* - *Friend, I just sent a resume for a secretary position, who knows.*
Bruna - It'll work out, you'll see, I'm rooting for you.
Mayra - Friend, come with me to see an apartment nearby. I thought about using the money I have saved until I find a job.
Bruna - I don't want you to leave, but I understand, let's go.
Mayra - Friend, I want you to have your privacy, you know that.
Bruna - I know you want yours too. Why don't you stay here in the building? There's an apartment right next to mine, we can be neighbors, and you can afford it.
Mayra - Oh my, then let's go now.
Bruna - Okayyy, let me call the owner.
While Bruna talks to the apartment owner, Mayra receives a message confirming her presence at the interview on Monday; she was one of the selected candidates.
*Mayra* - *Oh my god, friend, I got iiiit!*
Bruna - What, oh my god, to prove your innocence?
Mayra - No, friend, the interview. Oh, Lord, thank you.
Bruna - See? And you're going to pass. I'll be praying for you, friend. The owner is coming, let's go.
They wait for the apartment owner to arrive and go see the apartment. Mayra is enchanted; it was all furnished, beautiful, and everything was very nice.
She closes the deal, pays, and gets the keys. Bruna helps her friend put her things in the house, and they clean it. Mayra made a delicious dinner for her and her friend to celebrate the apartment. The weekend flew by, and Monday soon arrived. Mayra woke up early, took a shower, got ready, and went to give her friend a kiss before she went to work. Bruna works at a very famous clothing store in Los Angeles; she tried to find something for Mayra but couldn't. Mayra gives her a kiss and calls a taxi to the interview location. She arrives almost at the scheduled time, stops in front of a beautiful mansion, and remembers when she lived with her parents; her house was also almost similar, but not as luxurious. She informs the security guard, and he soon leads her to the interview location. Upon entering, she notices there are 9 other girls there. She sits and waits for her turn.
*Debora* - You've already interviewed nine, and nothing, my son. There's only one left.**
Lucas - They hit on me, you saw. I don't want them to mistreat my children, Mom. None of them even asked about them, only about me. Call that one in already.
Debora - Miss Mayra Nobre, please come in. I'll leave you for 1 minute, excuse me. Good luck, young lady.
Mayra - Thank you, ma'am.
Lucas - Please sit down. Where are you from, Miss Mayra?
Mayra - I'm from Los Angeles, sir.
Lucas - The interview isn't for a secretarial position, miss. Actually, I want to hire you to be a mother to my children.
Mayra - But sir, that's not what was written.
Lucas - I know, it's because it's top secret. My children are a priority and have a confidential life. If you accept, you will have all rights guaranteed. Do you accept the job?
Mayra - I really need this job, sir, but before signing anything, I want to see if your children accept me first. I don't want to cause them any discomfort.
Lucas - Of course, we can go now if you want to meet them then. You can spend the day with us.
Mayra - Of course, let's go.
Lucas - Let's wake them up then. They don't have school today, and they're still sleeping.
Mayra - Oh, yes. Then let's go, sir.
They go to the living room, and Debora is enchanted by Mayra's beauty. Lucas says that she wants to meet the children first and that they are going to wake them up. They go up to their room, and Mayra asks if she can go first to wake them. He confirms, and she approaches the bed, enchanted by the children; they look like sleeping angels.
She gently touches both their faces and wakes them.
*Lis* - *Hi, lady, who awe you?*
Mayra - Hi, I'm Mayra, and I'm going to be your new friend. Do you accept?
Lis - Yes, I want to be youw fwiend.
Mayra - And what's your name?
Lis - I'm Lis, and this is my bwother Lucca.
Mayra - Hi Lucca, you're very handsome. Want to be my friend too?
Lucca - Yesss, you'we vewy pwetty.
Mayra - Thank you very much.
Lucca - Daddy, look, ouw fwiend!
Lucas - I see, my love. She's going to take care of you, okay?
Lis - Is she going to be ouw mommy, Daddy?
Lucas - If you want her to be, yes.
Lis - Maywa, do you want to be ouw mommy?
Mayra - Oh my god, it would be a dream to have you two as my children. You are beautiful and polite. I really want to.
Lucca - See, Daddy, she accepts.
Lucas - Hahaha, then I'll leave her with you. She'll bathe and dress you. Help her. I'll wait for you downstairs. Thank you, miss.
Mayra - You're welcome. You can just call me Mayra, sir.
Lucas - Okay, Mayra. I'll wait for you downstairs for breakfast.
Mayra - Okay... So, let's take a bath, my darlings.
Lucas goes downstairs and sits with Debora and Marcos to wait for them to come down for breakfast.
*Debora* - *Oh, son, she's beautiful. How did it go? Did she hit on you?*
Lucas - No, she surprised me. She wanted to meet the children first before signing, and she didn't even look at the contract.
Marcos - I liked her. She seems like a great person.
Debora - Yes, I liked her too. She has elegance and style.
Lucas - As long as she's good with the children, that's great.
Mayra comes down with the children ready.
"There, look at them. Say good morning."
*Lis* - *Good mowning.*
Lucca - Good mowning.
Mayra - Good morning, my name is Mayra. How are you?
Debora - Good morning, my loves. Good morning, Mayra, a pleasure, Debora. They look beautiful.
Mayra - They chose the clothes; I just did their hair.
Marcos - A pleasure, Mayra. I'm Marcos. We are Lucas's parents. They indeed look beautiful. Did you like your hair, Lis?
Lis - Yesssssss.
Lucas - So let's have breakfast, it's ready. Sit with us, Mayra.
Mayra - I can have breakfast in the kitchen if you prefer.
Debora - Nonsense, sit down.
Mayra smiles and sits next to the children, serves them what they want to eat, and has breakfast with them. Lucas observes her with the children and sees that they really liked her, and every now and then he looks at her, sees her smile at the children's antics, and smiles too. Debora looks at him and her, then looks at Marcos, who winks at her. Debora asks if Mayra has a degree. She says she has one in administration and is a psychologist but doesn't practice in the field due to lack of opportunity. Marcos asks about her family and notices sadness in her eyes. She only replies that she has no family, that she just lives next door to a childhood friend. Debora also notices sadness in her eyes and nudges Marcos. He asks what she likes to do. She says she likes to go out with her friend to nightclubs, clubs, and loves the beach and working out. Lucas asks if she goes out much, and she says not much, that she loves staying home and watching a good series.
Mayra spends the morning and afternoon with the children, playing and hiding with them until they get tired. They have lunch and take an afternoon nap. Mayra takes the opportunity to call her friend and tell her she's doing a trial.
Soon Lucas calls her to talk.
*Lucas* - What do you say, are you liking it? Do you accept my offer?**
Mayra - Wow, I loved your children, sir. Yes, I accept. I really need this, but I will dedicate myself to whatever they need.
Lucas - Here, read it.
She takes and reads the contract.

• Must live in the house
• Be available to travel if needed
• No boyfriends in the house
• No outings with the children without authorization

Mayra - Wow, that's a lot. I agree, and the salary... wow.**
Lucas - Besides the salary, you have health insurance and a credit card with no limit to use for yourself and the children. Since you'll be their mother, you can buy clothes or if you want to change anything in their room or yours.
Mayra - Wow, there's no need. Your house is already perfect. Everything is really very good.
Lucas - So just sign it.
Mayra - Okay, I'll have to go get my things tonight, is that okay?
Lucas - Okay, I'll take you.
Mayra - No need, I'll get a taxi.
Lucas - I insist.
Mayra - Okay.
She signs and shakes his hand. At that moment, as their hands touch, they both feel something and quickly withdraw their hands. She leaves the room and releases the breath she had been holding without realizing it. He sits down and laughs at what happened and her awkwardness. Mayra goes upstairs, wakes the little ones, plays with them, and then they watch television. Soon it's time for Mayra to get her things. She saw that Lucas wasn't in the living room, so she asked Debora if she could go home to get her things. She says yes, and Marcos offered her a ride, which she declined.
Mayra goes to the gatehouse and tries to call a taxi. The gate opens, and Lucas calls her to get in the car. She feels awkward and says she's calling a car. He says there aren't any at this hour. She gets in, and they go to her house. He sits on the sofa, looking at how simple and well-organized everything is; nothing was out of place.
*Mayra* - I'm hungry. Want to eat something with me?**
Lucas - Could be, I'm hungry too. You left before dinner.
Mayra - Sorry.
She goes to the kitchen, and he sits at the island watching her prepare a sandwich. He asks if she wants help, and she says he can make orange juice if it's not too much trouble for him. He laughs and says he will. She hands him the fruit processor, and he makes juice from the oranges, then puts everything in her sink and washes it.
*Mayra* - You can leave that there, sir, I'll wash it.**
Lucas - No, I'll wash it. It's okay.
Mayra - Come, let's eat.
Lucas - Wow, you know how to make good-looking sandwiches.
Mayra - Hahaha, thank you.
They sit and start eating.
He compliments the sandwiches, and she, the juice. Afterward, she washes everything and goes to her room to pack some bags to stay there during the week. She takes everything she'll need. He helps her put it in the car, and they head to the mansion. When they arrive, the children are still awake. They go up with them and put them to bed. Lucas tells a story, and soon they fall asleep. Mayra says he tells stories very well. They say goodbye, and she goes to her room to unpack everything and soon falls asleep, exhausted from the day.
