"That's right, Mom, I was forgetting about the graduation party!" Melissa collapses on the couch, her eyes wide.
"But, I haven't forgotten." Dora spoke with a smart smile, “I'm almost done with your dress at the sewing machine. It will be cute, my daughter.”
"If it looks like the mold magazine you showed me, I can be crowned the prom queen!" Melissa maintained that illusion.
"And how are you going to be queen without a king?" Dora remembers it.
Melissa has a jolt, she feels like she's fallen out of the clouds. The mother still doesn't know that Josias ran away from home with only the clothes on. Obviously, Josias does not have an Italian-cut suit stored in his dresser.
How does Josias go to the prom?
If she invites him, that will be the excuse for him not to go. ‘Sorry, Melissa, but I don’t have a suit’.
However, she remembered that Josias's clothes he wore at Pamela's barbecue were from Wallace. And when

She tells men ‘don't worry’ and they do the exact opposite.“What do you mean, don't worry?” Josias reaches out and lifts Pamela off the floor like a gentleman, “Did you get hurt? I think Seu Teodoro has something in the lobby.”Luckily there were no serious wounds or bloody scratches like the last time.“You don't have to, I didn't have a scratch. It’s just the scare.” She responds sweetly with a smile.Josias is surprised. This Pamela, who is in front of him, sweet and pleasant, is much better than

“Josias, I'm really sorry about things that happened. I had no idea.” Pamela speaks in a regretful tone.In other circumstances, she would be genuinely moved by Josias's suffering. However now she is pretending for him to think that she has her good side.'A boy who had this disastrous background will never be able to rise in life!' Thought Pamela with contempt, although she was smiling at Josias, ‘This filthy room, with cracked walls, and very little furniture is all he will get. That’s why his best clothes are donated.’“Now you understand my situation.” Josias speaks relieved to see that she is reacting ‘favorably’.“Yes, I was a fool to judge you too hastily.” Pamela does not face Josias when she says this, a sign that she is lying and knows it.“Now we can understand each other better and stop causing problems and headaches for your best friend.” Josias is more excit

Robson is an excellent teacher.“Ready for another day of lessons, Josias?”“Always ready, Robson.” Josias smiles at him.“That's right. Keep going so you will be promoted soon. You know, Romualdo has been telling me a few things.”Uélton approaches and unceremoniously leans his ear to listen to what seemed to be confidential information. Robson notices Uélton eavesdropping, but just smiles slightly and goes on, “It looks like Romualdo is getting another client, another house to build. If things go right, some of us will go for this new work.”Josias and Uélton look at each other.“As if Romualdo was a construction company?” Josias asks.“It’s that. At the moment, Romualdo informally deals with business. But, he is very

Uélton scandalously asks Josias if he took Pamela to the room. The attention of the other masons was unduly attracted, as they think that there was indecency between him and Pamela.“Hey, Josias, I thought you were a good boy,” Robson spoke in a tone that sounded mocking or scolding, depending on who was listening.“Leave the boy alone, he's not made of iron!” Milton opines with a chuckle.Well, whether there is immorality or not, the fact is that the general opinion of the workers is that Josias deserved to date a girl, even more with the appearance of him.But, Josias went red like pepper and tried to justify himself, “Calm down, guys, I don't want to get anybody pregnant.”“That's it, let's be careful,” Robson advises without even letting Josias know if he was joking or serious.Romualdo arrives and the workers stop joking. Romualdo is a respectable and conservative gentleman; they do
Building My Life Chapter 84 Do You Want a Ride?

Pamela says, “We, as women, don't have to worry about that. We only study so as not to be illiterate, but boys are the ones who have to worry about jobs!”"So explain to me why precisely the boys are the ones who run in the front and with more speed?" Melissa replies defiantly.Pamela was about to swear at Melissa when she saw Fabrício from a distance and stopped in time.Fabrício decided to show up when Melissa left school to surprise her. He's wearing a blue shirt, jeans smelling new, and impeccably white sneakers. He also held a gift in his hands, properly wrapped with a pink b

This device had been invented last year, and now in 1980, it was still expensive for the lower classes.But, Fabrício comes from a family with good financial conditions, and he easily bought one for Melissa.Melissa stood for long minutes admiring the new acquisition. Now she could listen to whatever cassettes she wanted, while the rest of the family continued on the normal radio. She just couldn't walk on the street with this, as she would get undue attention.It wasn't that Melissa was afraid of being mugged.

Building My Life Chapter 86 Either He Or I
Josias gets furious when he learns from Pamela that Melissa won a gift."Pamela, if you don't tell me now what Melissa won and from whom..." He speaks threateningly and very close to Pamela, she is vibrating with the approach and with the manly and tough tone of his voice very close to her."Ain, Josias, I don't want to pour water on your beer..." She says not so convincingly."I still don't drink, so you can pour!" Josias grabs Pamela by the shoulders."Okay, can you drop me first?" Pamela pretends that she is offended and Josias releases her, “Fabrício approached us when we left school and gave Melissa a package. She was embarrassed, but accepted for education.”"If she wanted to be polite, she had to throw the package on the floor and step on it!" Josias yells with his face closed."You know very well that Melissa is not that temperament." Pamela observes, “And if you're one of those hot-head guys, you can forget
