At the municipal stadium in Lagoon City, Happiness Slum's cheerleaders were lining up at the box office to buy a ticket. It was the day of the semi-final, Happiness Slum versus Green Park.On the other side would be Saint Gabriel versus Europe Garden. If Saint Gabriel wins, it would be the next finalist team.William was worried about seeing Saint Gabriel's team again when he remembered that it was a player from that team who contributed to the break in his leg.But coach Ferreira gave a nice boost of spirit in the dressing room, solving any doubts or fears that might be among the players."Listen here, champions: I was informed that if we win this match, Silva Constructions will sponsor us." General commotion among players, "That's right, the construction company that is rocketing to the moon decided to help us! Imagine what it could do for us: new uniforms, field makeover, prestige, and even the chance for scouts to look for you for greater opportunitie

In Rocha Penthouse, the party was in full swing.Flávia put up happy songs like "Tonight She Comes" by The Cars, and this time no one scolded her.João Pedro and Caio were sitting on the sofa, indulging themselves with a huge bowl of popcorn. The two became closer more like brothers than uncle and nephew.Strangely, Elza helped Dora by preparing the delicacies and even distribute them among the guests, helping Flávia. The maid, however, wrinkled her nose at this rare expression of modesty. Could it be that the madame was trying to disguise her true temper?William was seated in the armchair belonging to Josias and receiving all the honors like a king. Stacy was sitting on the arm of the chair like his diva.Uélton approaches all party-goer: "That's great, Will! I always believed you were capable, but taking my favela team to the municipal championship finals? A dream come true!"William even has his cheeks sore fr

At Happiness Slum Church, William was present socially dressed with a tie, worshiping the Lord. Stacy had decided to visit him to thank God for yesterday's success.The Freire family is present and equally grateful for William's success. As he is Josias's brother-in-law, it's all in the family.However, when William looks at the Freire family, he can't help but feel that Wallace is missing. Where did he go?When the service ends, all the congregation get up and talk to each other. Uélton is one of the first to go to William."Oh, neighbor, I'm glad you came back here!" He greets him, "I already told you congratulations. What's up, Stacy?""Hello, Uélton." Stacy turns to William, "I better get going, love. The restaurant will open soon and I have work to do.""But today is Sunday, Stacy!" Uélton complains without understanding Crystal Blue's routine.Stacy respectfully explains, "Uélton, today we will have l

A few days pass. Coach Ferreira is signing papers and documents at Silva Constructions' office. On the other side of the desk, Romualdo runs the operation as head of the company."Any questions, Mr. Ferreira?" Romualdo asks."No, everything is fine." Ferreira nods. He finishes signing where he was pointed out and hands him the sheets, "It's a pleasure to partner with you.""Likewise. As a former resident of the same favela, it's a pride for me to help the community in some way." Romualdo leans back in the presidential chair.The door opens and Josias and Tiago enter."All right, Romualdo?" Josias asks."All right folks. We are now the sponsors of the Happiness Slum soccer team." Romualdo announces with a slight smile.Ferreira stands up and extends his hand. Romualdo greets him.The other gentlemen also say goodbye to Ferreira, shaking his hand. After saying goodbyes, the coach leaves.When Josias closes the door, he vib

Josias is upset to learn that the late moneylender did, in fact, have a spy scheme to find out about him."Well then, that explains why he knew so much about my life!" Josias bangs his fist on the desk."What is it, sir?" Ernesto is amused by Josias's reaction, "Did you think José Augusto was omnipresent?""That's what it looked like! I never understood how he found me after such a long time. So it was basically through your means.""It wasn't exactly my intention." Ernesto apologizes, "I really used to keep vigil in certain places to find out what the neighbors were talking about. Sometimes José Augusto would use someone's secret to collect the debt more assertively. So I was on the lookout at Evandro's cafeteria...""Where Moacyr Barbosa is a regular customer, and he ended up telling Evandro about me without realizing that you were listening." Josias completes quickly, in one breath. "There, I get it. It's better if I don't even tel
