Josias is wearing the black T-shirt and jeans that were donated by Uélton's brother. He walks down the street and stays waiting for Melissa at the corner of Hope Street. Not far from him, a drunken customer at the corner bar slept shamefully on the sidewalk.
“Boy, in that outfit, I already know there is going to be something serious. But, isn't it too early for parties?” Uélton asks.
“Get out, boy.” Josias responds smilingly, “I'm going downtown with Melissa. We have a date.”
“Are you going to have your first kiss in Central Square? There is a fountain that can give a very romantic mood.”
Josias laughs and pats Uélton on the shoulder. “Who knows, but it's not in my plans. Not today. We're still getting to know each other better as friends.”
“Um, this chat about 'we're friends'...”
“Well, for you to see that we're getting to know each other bett

Building My Life Chapter 41 Getting Rid Of Punishment
Josias strides into the lobby, head down and with a grimace from someone who ate scarlet eggplant. Teodoro is cleaning up the place, dusting off the shelf of the keys to the rooms with a flannel and cleaning products. Seeing the boy entering like that, all furious, he decides to risk asking, “What happened, Josias?”Josias stops walking and turns to him, exploding, “Everything got wrong, Seu Teodoro!”At this moment Jeremiah was going down the stairs, but he did not finish going down. Listening to Josias's angry voice, he remains standing on the steps and listens to the conversation with a mocking smile.From where they are, Josias and Teodoro do not see him, Jeremiah managed to hide.“How tough, young man!

Building My Life Chapter 42 And You Are to Blame
“Does the idiot want me to still fix his door?” Josias exclaims indignantly, “May he go to hell!”“Josias, try to be reasonable!” Teodoro frowns, not liking the boy's language, “You overreacted; you could have knocked on the door. Or rather, you could have called me.”“I don't know where your room is.”“How can you not?” Teodoro claps his hands on his thighs, “My room is the first on the first floor! Is the easiest to find!”“I'm sorry, Seu Teodoro, at the time I didn't think—”“You were so upset about Jeremiah that you rushed over. If it were another tenant, you wouldn't kick the door.”Josias is forced to confess. “Yes, you are right.”“So take advantage and try to make up with him.

Building My Life Chapter 44 Invitation to Lunch
Josias was repairing the door to Jeremiah's room with visible annoyance. The hinges were with some loose screws, so he was fastening again with a screwdriver.“Look at him,” Jeremiah says mockingly, when he and Wallace enter the hall, “I should call the police to report a violation of the home.”“It says ‘home invasion’,” Josias responds, turning the screwdriver too hard as if he were turning the screwdriver over Jeremiah's head.Wallace notices the boy that he is not muscular enough to break down a door. How did he do it?“Boy, did you manage to break down that door with that skinny leg?” Wallace asks without being offensive.“My legs are strong. Muscle does not always correspond to strength and endurance.” Josias says proudly.The job is done and Josias straightens up, facing the two men. He smirks and asks mockingly. “If I hear cries for help, should I call the
Building My Life Chapter 45 Making Amends
Uélton and Josias do not gaze at each other. Since Josias entered his home, he has greeted his parents, but not his best friend. Uélton remained in the room until his mother asked him to eat. Now the two are at the table, vis-a-vis, but without the courage to exchange half a word. Josias understands that Uélton invented a story so as not to accuse him of aggression. Deep down, he was grateful. “Too bad, Uélton, I didn't know,” Josias says not to leave the atmosphere boring. The best friend needs to say something. “You, who are new to the favela, keep an eye out, my boy.” Mr. Freire advises, “Unfortunately, honest and hardworking people are at fault.” “It seems that the more time goes by, the worse people get.” Mrs. Freire regrets as she elegantly cuts a chicken drumstick. Josias resists the temptation to grab the piece of chicken with his hand, but it seems impossible since he took the wing. All the meat around the bones is being waste

God, I'm glad you came to explain.”“What?” Melissa felt like she was invading a cinema in the middle of the movie, “No, I didn't come to clarify anything; I also want to know what happened.”“Well, my little sister has been making a fuss in her room, locked up, since she came back.
