The week flew by, and I'm here finishing my packing, but I confess I'm a bit nervous.
It's been years since I've been to Rio, I don't know how everything is there. I don't know if I'll find Pedro, my childhood friends.
I finished packing my last suitcase, took my photo with Pedro from the drawer and put it in my bag.
I went downstairs, my parents and Anna are going to take me to the airport.
Jonas helped me with my suitcases, I went to the kitchen to say goodbye to Rita.
We all got in the car, my parents gave me a thousand recommendations, they are very worried about me. Anna is going to Rio next week, my grandmother loves her.
We arrived at the airport, Jonas took out my suitcases, I said goodbye to each one with a hug, and boarded, I'm so nervous, but very happy.
.........
Almost 2 hours later I arrived in Rio, I had even forgotten that this city is too beautiful.
The flight was very peaceful, I watched a movie.
I took a taxi at the airport, the very friendly man helped me with my bags, and was talking to me all the way.
We arrived at the foot of Rocinha, and the driver stopped.
Taxi driver- Miss, I'm sorry, but I'm not authorized to enter there, you'll have to stay here.
Maite- Are you serious?
Taxi driver-Yes, it seems that the owner of the favela, does not allow taxis inside, they say he is very strict with the rules.
Maite- Oh, okay then.
Here's your money, and thank you very much.
I got out, took my suitcase.
There were some armed men, I confess I was a little scared, I didn't remember it being like this.
I was about to enter and one of them came towards me, with a big gun in his hands.
Man- Good morning princess, may I know where you are going?
Maite- Good morning, I'm looking for my grandmother, I came to surprise her.
Man- I didn't know that Patricinha had relatives in the favela.
(He said mocking and laughing at another man)
Maite- Well, I used to live here.
I was away for a while, now I just came to visit my grandmother.
Her name is Rosa, she lived on street 7 I think.
Man- I think I know who she is, come on in.
Do you want help with your suitcase?
Maite- Look man, I'll accept because I don't remember where street 7 is anymore.
(I said laughing)
Man- Let's go princess, I'll take you there.
He took my suitcase, thank goodness because it was heavy kkk
This guy seems nice, even though he's armed.
We walked, the place was very clean, there were children in the street playing and playing ball. I felt such a good nostalgia. I remember when it was me running and playing through these streets and alleys.
After a tiring walk we arrived in front of my grandmother's house.
It was a different color, a very beautiful burnt pink and white openings.
Maite- Thank you so much man, you helped me a lot.
Man- Nothing princess, satisfaction my nickname is Gago, any tape just lean on us.
I thanked him again and he left.
I knocked on my grandmother's door, she was very surprised by the look on her face kkkk
Rosa- I can't believe it, my favorite granddaughter is really here.
(She said coming to hug me).
Maite- Hi Grandma, I missed you so much.
Of course I'm your favorite granddaughter, I'm the only one you have.
Rosa- Come my love, come in.
My grandmother's house was still the same inside, I'm so happy to be here with her.
Rosa- Come daughter, I'm preparing lunch, in the meantime let's catch up on the gossip.
Maite- Oh, I missed your food, this place, you.
Rosa- Well, I'll cook for you every day while you're here.
After lunch we can take a walk around the favela so you can miss it.
Maite- That would be great.
Do you know if Mariana and Carol still live here?
Rosa- Ah yes, they live here.
They are even my friends, sometimes they appear here.
Maite- Seriously grandma?
I would love to see them again.
Rosa- They too daughter, every time they come here they ask me about you.
We stayed there in the kitchen, catching up while my grandmother cooked.
My grandmother's house is small but so cozy.
Having lunch, and I helped her with the dishes.
I missed my grandmother's seasoning so much, she always cooked very well.
We finished the dishes and went to the living room.
I told her everything about SC, she said that Floripa is beautiful but she prefers Rio.
.........
Some time passed we decided to go for a walk, we went up the streets very slowly because my grandmother is already old.
Along the way, I remembered people, streets, games.
We arrived in front of where Mariana and Pedro Henrique lived (yes, they are siblings)
The house had changed a lot, now it has two floors, it is very beautiful, and not simple at all.
My heart was racing, and butterflies were flying in my stomach, because I could run into Pedro.
My grandmother knocked on the door and we waited.
A lady I didn't know came to answer.
Lady- Good afternoon, Rosa how have you been?
Rosa- Hi Maria, everything's fine.
This is my granddaughter Maite, she came to see Mariana, is she there?
Maria- What a beautiful girl. It's a pleasure.
Yes she is, come in feel free I'll call her.
The house was even more beautiful inside, it didn't even look like a favela house.
What a nice change they made here.
We sat on the sofa, I was shaking with nervousness.
Mariana- Oh my God, I can't believe it
(She said screaming down the stairs).
Maite- Hi Marii, long time no see.
I missed you.
Mariana- Wow Dona Rosa what a wonderful surprise.
(She said coming to hug me).
Rosa- Well girls, I did my part.
Daughter I'm leaving soon my soap opera starts, then Mariana takes you.
Maite- Okay grandma, take care.
Mariana took me to her room, we sat on the bed and started talking.
We had so many things to tell each other, we hadn't seen or talked to each other for years.
She is even more beautiful than I remember, it seems that time had not passed, our friendship continued the same.
...
* Pedro Henrique on*
Hey guys, my name is Pedro Henrique, I'm 23 years old.
I'm going to summarize the thing for you here.
About 4 years ago my father and mother died in an invasion by BOPE here in the favela.
Since then I took over the favela, and I'm taking my father's legacy on my shoulders.
Now it's just my sister and me, I love that girl and I do everything for her.
In the favela I have help from my childhood best friend MT, he became my right hand.
He and my sister live in a thing that neither knows what they want.
And me? Ah I'm one of those who takes and doesn't get attached, I only loved one in my life, a cool girl, I lost my virginity with her you know? She never left my head. But since she left Rio I haven't heard from her.
I'm always with Jessica, but nothing serious, just some casual fucks.
She lives in my boot wanting to be assumed. But I already said that I don't assume lunchbox that everyone takes.
I think that's it, I'll tell you the rest over time.
Satisfaction, pleasure only in bed.
