#1 Cecília had an outbreak of Scrizophenia at a dance

Cecília: (sighing) Wow, look at that man over there, girls. He is simply perfect!

Laiana: (laughing) Ceci, you always fall in love with men who only exist in your imagination.

Fernanda: (smiling) It's true, but who knows, this time, he's real?

Cecília: (excited) I'm going to go there and talk to him.

Laiana: (worried) Ceci, wait! You know what your schizophrenia episodes are like.

Cecília: (ignoring) Don't worry, girls. Everything will be fine.

Cecília declared herself from the table and walked to where the man was. She smiled charmingly and when she was about to get close to him, she started to lose her balance and ended up falling onto the ball table, making a crash and catching everyone's attention.

Man: (surprised) Wow, are you okay?

Cecília: (embarrassed) Sorry, I think I got a little carried away.

Man: (smiling) No problem, it happens. What is your name?

Cecília: (excited) My name is Cecília. And you?

Man: (mysterious) Call me Lucas. Do you dance?

Cecília: (smiling) Of course, I love dancing!

While Cecília and Lucas danced, their friends looked worried. They knew that Cecília often confused reality with her imagination and ended up getting into complicated situations. But even so, he was always by her side, supporting her.

Laiana: (whispering) I'm worried about Ceci.

Fernanda: (nervous) Me too, I hope she doesn't get disappointed again.

Meanwhile, Cecília and Lucas danced as if they were the only ones in the room. She was completely enchanted by him, and he seemed interested in her too. But deep down, she knew something wasn't right.

Lucas: (serene) Cecília, you are an incredible woman. I don't want to scare you, but I need to tell you something.

Cecília: (curious) What is it, Lucas?

Lucas: (seriously) I'm not real, Cecília. I'm just a figment of your imagination.

Cecília stopped dancing and looked at Lucas, not believing what she was hearing. She began to tremble and slowly backed away from him as tears began to well up in her eyes.

Cecília: (shaken) That can't be true. You look so real.

Lucas: (gentle) I know it's difficult to accept, Cecília. But you need to understand that I can't stay here forever. You need to face reality.

Cecília: (sobbing) How am I going to do this, Lucas? I don't know how to live without you.

Lucas: (calming) You are strong, Cecília. You will be able to overcome this. I will always be with you, even if in a different way. You have so many incredible qualities, so much strength within you. You will find a way to move forward.

Cecília: (taking a deep breath) But how am I going to deal with loneliness, Lucas? A part of me believed that you were real, that you were my mate... And now you're telling me that this is all a figment of my imagination.

Cecília remained silent for a few seconds, processing Lucas' words. She looked at him, teary-eyed, and tried to understand what was happening. As much as she knew Lucas wasn't real, she had created such a strong bond with him that it was difficult to accept the truth.

Cecília: (with a trembling voice) Why now, Lucas? Why are you telling me this?

Lucas: (with sadness in his eyes) Because you need to move on, Cecília. You can't live in the world of your imagination forever. It's time to face reality and move on.

Cecília nodded slowly, still trying to process everything that was happening. She turned away from Lucas and walked to the window, looking at the world outside. She felt lost and confused, not knowing how to move forward without her imaginary companion.

Lucas approached her and placed a hand on her shoulder, trying to comfort her.

Lucas: (affectionately) I know it’s difficult, Cecília. But you are strong enough to overcome this. I will always be here, even if only in your memory.

Cecília looked at Lucas and smiled, even though the tears were still streaming down her face.

Cecília: (with determination) You're right, Lucas. I need to move on and find my own happiness. Thank you for everything.

Lucas smiled at her and slowly disappeared, leaving Cecília.

She took a deep breath and wiped away her tears, deciding to face reality and move on.

Without Lucas' presence, Cecília felt an emptiness inside her.

She tried to distract herself with her daily activities, but the absence of her imaginary companion still echoed in her thoughts.

On a sunny afternoon, Cecília decided to go for a walk in the park.

She walked slowly along the tree-lined paths, breathing in the fresh air and feeling the sun warm her skin. As she watched the children playing and the couples in love walking hand in hand, Cecília felt a pang of loneliness invade her heart.

It was then that she saw a man sitting on a bench, looking at the horizon with a thoughtful look. He seemed lost in his own thoughts, the same way Cecília felt.

She approached the man, sitting next to him shyly.

Cecília: (shy) Excuse me, can I sit here?

The man looked at her and smiled gently.

Man: (friendly) Sure, feel free.

They spent hours talking, laughing and sharing special moments together. As the sun set over the horizon, Cecília realized she was ready to leave the past behind and embrace the present. (just not)

She said goodbye to the man with a warm hug and a smile on her lips. As she walked back home, Cecília felt lighter and more hopeful about the future.
