Pamela is in no way able to get Josias to be at peace with her. Because of the slander, he had to leave the boardinghouse and the favela as if he were a molester.
"Josias, everything would be easier if you assumed what is yours." She still tries to bring up the subject, approaching him and speaking softly.
With each step that Pamela approaches, Josias moves away. "You are crazy, girl, you need treatment!"
"I need a man who loves me, just as I love you. Leave Melissa and marry me, Josias, let's raise our son together!"
At this moment Wallace was about to leave, but he is faced with the voices and decides to listen from this point. Pamela has her back to the corridor and Josias doesn't see him, because Wallace is hiding.
"Stop saying the son is mine! We never made love, Pamela! You lie so many times that you come to believe the lie." Josias is firm and tough.
"Don't be cruel, Josias, don't forget the countless burning nights of love and passio
Josias widens his eyes, but deep in his heart, something said that Jeremiah was behind it."Why am I still surprised?" Josias screams with all the wrath of the world."Calm down, Josias, otherwise you and not I have a heart attack here." Teodoro gestures for the young man to calm down.Josias takes a deep breath, controlling himself. "Sorry, Teodoro, you now need to explain to me why you think Jeremiah could be the scoundrel informer."Teodoro tells the whole story about having spotted Jeremias leaving Pamela's apartment and how Jeremias got very angry and saying threats to the landlord.Josias promised to calm down, but he became more furious after the story was told. "But it's not possible! The bitch just said that she loves me and that we should get married for our son!""I don't know if Pamela loved any men." Teodoro laments with his head, "When Jeremiah left, he was still putting his shirt on.""So that's why she asked Wallace to
Moacyr smiles and shakes his head in approval. "It is very correct, miss. I tell him this: he needs to be a good man to find a good woman.""Then he will be able to be happy in love if he listens to you." The door to Romualdo's office opens. "Ah, they're leaving. Excuse me."When they see that it is Moacyr and not Adrian, the three partners are so relieved that Moacyr ends up laughing."I wanted to take a picture to record your relief face!" He gets up and extends his hand, "How are you?"Romualdo is the first and the only one to shake it. "Let's go to my office."The two retire. When the door closes, Melissa hurriedly asked, "So, what did you decide?""We will help and support Seu Teodoro." Tiago said, "Nobody in Happiness Slum can be charged a City Hall fee that nobody pays! Why only Seu Teodoro's building? And the rest of the houses?"Melissa can't help but be curious, "And your house, Tiago?"Josias casts a warning look at
With the defeat of the Brazilian team, only those who are very enthusiastic about soccer continued to follow the championship until Italy was three times championed. Those of Italian descent celebrated without fear of being happy.But, for Teodoro, life went on, because it was necessary to see if the City Hall intended to block his building.On a certain day, he is once again sweeping and dancing to Angela Clemmons's song "Give Me Just a Little More Time" when two people, a couple, approach the entrance and burst out laughing.Teodoro turns to whoever is mocking him, but instead of frowning and scolding, he gives a smile and a welcome."Kids!"He drops the broom and opens his arms. Teodoro's two children embrace him fervently."You always dance with a broom." The daughter says."Vera, you remember very well that I danced with your mother." Teodoro justifies himself.The hug is broken and the boy says: "That's why we think it's
Melissa is extremely shocked when she hears Everaldo say that they are accusing Josias of denying a child. After the initial shock, she reasoned and concluded that it could only have been Pamela.Pamela's baby was born and she continues to slander that her father is Josias! God, what will the child's future be like?Sometimes it would be better for Josias to identify himself as a father to pluck his son out of that crazy woman's clutches! Pamela will be a terrible mother, you can be sure of that!"Everaldo, please call later! So, Josias talks to you and finally, he kills the urge to thank you for everything." Melissa always reminds you of that."How's our champion doing?" Everaldo asks interested."He is living in a rented house, where we will live when we get married, in Green Park," Melissa informs smiling and proud."Didn't I say that God was saving magnificent things for him? And you can be sure that your wedding will be blessed. Anyway,
The next day, Pamela and Wallace return from the hospital with Caio in her arms. They appear in the lobby, with Vera and Beto talking to Teodoro.Teodoro interrupts the conversation with a gesture and points to the 'family' that enters.Pamela looks at Teodoro's children and immediately looks at Beto. The handsome, tall, black-eyed and intimidating boy left her on wobbly legs, even though she held her son in her arms and next to another attractive man. Pamela is like that, she never settles down.Vera, as a woman, already discerns what Pamela is wanting and frowns. In turn, she aims at Wallace and smiles sweetly at the handsome man who appears to be her husband. If Pamela doesn't value the man she has, who knows...Pamela decides to break the silence: "Hello, everyone! Meet Caio, the new resident of this building.""And we have another new resident." Teodoro gestures, "These are my children, Vera and Beto. Beto is going to live in Josias's old room
Josias is the most embarrassed of all. He turns to Uélton and repeats the classic question: "Uélton, didn't you promise that you would discipline your mouth?""Sorry, Josias, but it can't be overlooked!" Uélton justified himself.Milton continues to pull Josias by the shirt. "Come on, Uélton, duty calls us. Look at the owner looking at you."Moacyr, however, has the same sense of humor as Teodoro. He chuckles and excuses Uélton. "The boy is very curious, leave him alone."Uélton smiles in thanks and leaves with Milton. Josias remains thoughtful. Carmen is dating the hateful son of Moacyr Barbosa. But, months ago it looked like Adrian was making a move to Melissa. Has he gotten over it yet?"Well, Seu Moacyr, then you are aware that this young woman is accusing me of abandoning a child that is not mine. And that I am in a close relationship with Melissa, the company secretary." Josias communicates in a serio
Uélton returns home. Isabel is watching the Mexican soap opera 'Los Ricos También Lloran', a novelty in Brazilian lands. She smiles briefly at her son and continues to stare at the TV."Good afternoon, son. How was work?""It was great, mom. I met Josias. Something interesting happened today."The soap opera goes into commercials and Isabel turns to her son. "You can talk. Does it concern us?""Not so much, it concerns Wallace more." Uélton sits on the sofa, "The owner of the house we are building has a son who is dating Carmen. And he informed us that Pamela's baby was born."Isabel raised her eyebrows. "Look, how interesting. But, Wallace didn't come to tell us.""I think he is too busy taking care of everything, or he fears that we will complain.""But, of course, we will complain!" Isabel snorts, "Imagine, he's busy—"Isabel is interrupted because Harold appears, coming from work. "Oops! Good afte
Wallace takes a deep breath to face another storm with his family. "Well, I just came to tell you that Pamela's baby was born. When you want to visit her and meet Caio, you can feel free. She... resigned from the supermarket to stay home."Uélton suspects that the last part of Wallace's sentence was a lie, because of the pause he made and because he stared at the floor. When we speak the truth, we look at the person we speak to."Son, that is out of the question." Harold speaks on behalf of the whole family, "This baby is nothing of ours. He is not my grandson and he is not Uélton's nephew. And he is not your son either!"Wallace adopts an icy stance and says mechanically: "Like it or not, he was registered in the hospital files as being my son, and as soon as possible we will register him in the registry office as being mine.""Why are you doing this, my son, why?" Isabel cries out like the heroine of the soap opera."It's because I
