Rhodia River - In the stream of love Chapter 244 Getting in for free
GRANJA SQUARE - DAYGreat agglomeration of the neighborhood leaving the Church after another Sunday Mass. And as usual, everyone takes the opportunity to go to the fair. Carina, an example of a devout Christian, still in her modest clothes, goes to her tent and opens it to sell what is left of her paintings and what she managed to paint at night until today.Luis didn't even go to mass and is now ready to sell his cassette tapes.The Church was fuller because of the circus and park staff who took the opportunity to thank God for their deliverance, as the circus and the park were their lives. Some of them have been in this endeavor with Cláudio for years, leaving family and friends behind.Cláudio himself also participated in the Mass and is now walking down the stairs talking to Aurélio and Rosa."How long will you be here, Mr. Reis?" Rosa asked."Long enough for you to cut 'sir' and call me Claudio."The three laugh."Then you can start calling me Rosa now.""The affection and suppor

RUBENS'S APARTMENT - AFTERNOONThe living room is now strewn with clothes; magazines, books, and CDs in their proper places, the coffee table is clean and shining, the sofa is free from socks and underwear, swept floors, and dust-free curtains. The noise of the washing machine indicates its operation.Rubens is sitting in the armchair wearing only a towel wrapped around his waist because Penha noticed that the black T-shirt and shorts he was wearing were reeking of mold. The guy is ashamed to be naked in front of a lady, but Penha is apparently a woman of fiber.He barely imagines that Penha is loving seeing Ricardo's best friend like that, naturally. And the clothes he wore weren't sooooooo dirty..."And then, you didn't just come to see me without clothes." Rubens teased, "I'm a dead man if he knows that, Penha.""Why are you so concerned about Ricardo?""You are a committed woman, remember that."Penha, indeed, was not in the mood to remember, "He barely talks to me... He barely wa

CLAUDIO'S TRAILER - DAYMonday. Cláudio is counting and separating the money received from Saturday and Sunday. Maximum capacity on opening day and excellent ticket sales on Sunday. The ticket agent informed him that he let a candid, simple, and charming girl pass by for free. Cláudio correctly concluded that it was Carina. Now he is separating the payment from his fellow travelers.The door opens and the same ticket agent enters. Claudio promptly separates some bundles of notes and hands him over."This is the payment for trapeze artists and tamers. You know how much it’s for each one.""How long do you intend to stay here, Mr. Reis? I was told that the neighborhood is new, but it already has a population that can earn a month's stay.""And with the affection of the residents... What happened to us thanks to the police... We have publicly forgiven the disturbed officer only increased their admiration for us. Maybe we will stay for more than a month. We will see."Cláudio kept a felin

MONICA'S LIVING ROOM - DAYMonica and Fábio hardly believe that Célio dared to ask if she wants to help him deliver the payment slips to the residents since she is with Fábio and ready to go out. Célio is more irritated by Fábio's presence.The boyfriend protests, "No, man, this can only be on purpose!""I just asked a question," Célio says seriously.Monica approaches her friend, "Célio, I'm socially dressed to go out. Fábio and I are going to another publisher. I need to focus on publishing my novel."Célio only understands Monica's side, "Ok, Monica, I didn't know. So, have good luck and have a good trip."Fábio, however, does not want to leave things as they are, "Hey, come back here, buddy! We need to define one thing: I realize that you have a lot of freedom in coming to my girlfriend's house."Célio weaves an ironic, mocking smile, "Above all, Fábio, Monica is my friend. I came here with the best of intentions. Since you are busy, I will look for the other friends, good morning

RHODIA AVENUE - DAYWellington and Annie are talking about her and her courtship with Jonas. He decides to calm her about his fears of the fans."Annie, don't pay too much attention to the cheerleaders. If it’s cheerleaders. Sometimes the person speaks without intending to hurt you.""But it hurts." Annie sighs wistfully, "Why don't people see that I love Jonas?""The question is reversed. People are not seeing that JONAS loves you."Annie suddenly stops and grabs Wellington's arm in despair, "No! That's a lie! He loves me so much, that's why he's jealous.""Well, I'm not into all the gossip, but I've been told that Jonas isn't being the gentleman he was when we were in high school.""He will be more petty and bitter if everyone points their bazookas at him." Annie walks away, upset. She definitely wants to protect her loved one."Annie, what do you expect from all this? I prefer to hear it from your mouth instead of trusting others."Annie regains some of her joviality in replying, "

CASSIO'S LIVING ROOM - DAYCássio informs Célio and Luis that he passed the interview for the supermarket. But, it seems that his friends were sad."Hey, guys, what are these grimaces? We should be celebrating!"Célio and Luis soon disguise and force joviality."What is it, Cássio? Of course, we are happy with you!" Célio says."It's just that we expected you to help us with these booklets, but..." Luis says. Cassio shakes his head in denial, amused by the two.He goes to Célio and takes some booklets for himself."Come on, the deal is tomorrow! This is going to be my farewell task.""Remember, Cassio, we are happy. Congratulations, you were looking forward to a job.""You can take it easy, Célio. You really are a friend."The three leave and Cassio closes the door.BAKERY CASCAISWellington buys the pieces of bread he needs and says goodbye to Jonas and Annie, winking at the last one, and leaves. Jonas realizes this and goes on questioning his girlfriend."Has the little black been t
Rhodia River - In the stream of love Chapter 250 Shame on the cover
STREETS - DAYLuis is handing out a payment slip to an elderly and kind lady. She thanks."Thank you very much, young man. We will finally collaborate with the police station, to protect us from harm." She finds Claudio among them, "And it was a noble and admirable gesture on your part to have forgiven our Chief Roldão, Mr. Reis.""Noble gesture? Any human being would have done that, madam. I just don't hold a grudge...""If all people did not hold a grudge... Much less what happened to you, they will even kill each other! Anyway, thank you, and have a good job! It’s very gratifying to see young people doing something useful instead of meddling in drugs or debauchery..."And the elderly lady walks into her house walking slowly, because of rheumatism.Luis approaches the others, "Yeah, it looks like we managed to contain the damage."Cassio speaks with some certain resentment, "Lucky for Roldão. If it were up to my parents, they would have brought the police down, or they would hunt Ro

GRANJA SQUARE - DAYCélio has finished distributing the booklets and is now returning to the Association. Luis and Cássio have already said goodbye. He is walking with Cláudio since the Association is on the same path."Célio, I was very worried about the reaction of your friend Cássio. He may seem tough, but having a gun pointed at his head is not an easy experience to forget. You are still young. You don't have thick skin like us.""Well, Seu Cláudio, he shows that he is not affected. I don't want to insist on the matter if he doesn't admit that he has a problem.""Okay, it may not be necessary to speak, but watch his actions. I intend to discuss this with the officer when we go to talk.""The police station is over there." Célio points in that direction with his finger."No, no, I'm going to prepare lunch and then rest in my trailer. See you around, Célio. And if you need help, you can look for me.""Thank you very much, Seu Cláudio."Cláudio and Célio say goodbye. When Cláudio lea

Chapter 360 The end of a dream
BAKERY CASCAIS - DAYFábio enters the bakery and is amazed by what he sees: Monica prostrated in the chair, finishing crying, with Annie sitting next to her, comforting her and assuring her that she was not a bad friend for Carina. Jonas continues to serve customers, sometimes taking a look at both.Fábio approaches the two girls with concern, “Monica! What happened?”He kneels to her. Monica smiles slightly, touched by his concern, “It’s okay, Fábio. I was worse. I just remembered Carina and the worst step she’s going to take in her life.”“You are thinking about the lunch she has with the damn parents.”Annie explains, “It’s just that Monica is feeling guilty for not preventing Carina from going to that lunch.”Fábio caresses Monica’s hair, “My love, you tried, but Carina needs to make her decision. After all, everyone has to carry their load.”“She is going to suffer, Fábio. At least I asked her to keep an eye on the family. She could take advantage of the fact that she is going to

Chapter 359 The last chance for Carina
PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYEverybody took the day to ask Ricardo trick questions. However, he felt it was not the time to answer or lie to the inquirers.He just weaves his classic silly little smile and avoids the subject, “Calm down, Penha, you don’t need to create conspiracy theories. The guy disappears from the bar for three days without giving any satisfaction. I thought he moved out of the neighborhood. I didn’t understand the disappearance.”Penha narrows her eyes, hardly believing what she heard. He kidnaps Wellington and then asks “why did he disappear?”“I hope he disappears. I always thought he was too good for your business. You were in danger of being reported by him.”Penha already knew the truth, since Wellington had told her. She just teased Ricardo, as if she had fun with it. She wanted to see his reaction.Ricardo was more nervous, tense, taking a deep breath, and “counting to three” so as not to reveal himself more than he did at the Malthus snack bar. Not with Penha.“Any

MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYAurélio is teaching Luís how to properly serve customers. Wellington is sweeping. Nobody notices the window, where Ricardo is looking at the three with dismay.Ricardo goes back a few steps and enters the snack bar even with the “closed” sign on the door. The three men turn their attention to the door opening and closing and are surprised.“Ricardo?” the owner says, “We haven’t opened it yet, but we already have snacks in the showcase.”Ricardo looks with disgust at the snacks, “I don’t want to be a victim of the ‘Salmonella bar’ anymore. What are these two doing here?”Disgusted, Wellington drops the broom and approaches him, “You can ask us, directly. We are here!”Aurélio gestures for Wellington to calm down.Ricardo goes on talking, “And you, Wellington? Are you working here now? Aren’t you going back to the bar? Rubens is waiting for you until now!”Wellington looks at Aurélio in doubt, Aurélio responds affirmatively with a slight nod.“No, Ricardo, I won’

PENHA’S HOUSE - NIGHTPenha is disgusted by Ricardo’s unexpected visit just to ask if she is going to lunch tomorrow. Because she had no intention of going.Even with her clear body language: pouting, arms crossed and one foot hitting the ground, Ricardo does not undo the classic little silly smile.“Did you interrupt my movie... for this?”Ricardo sits in the armchair closest to the coffee table and puts his feet on top. Penha can see from the soles of one of his shoes that Ricardo stepped on ox feces.“Get those dirty feet off my coffee table!”“You haven’t confirmed me yet, sis. The dress that Carina chose is beautiful. Did you choose yours?”“Get outta my house now!”Ricardo threatens to rub his foot with his dirty shoe, showing that he knows the situation of his shoe.“Come on, sis, say yes! A family lunch, with dad and mom...”Penha is about to cry, she is very nervous. She just wants Ricardo to leave, “Please, Ricardo, stop this clowning! I’m not going to show up for lunch to h

PENHA HOUSE - NIGHTAfter Penha and Wellington cancel the lease agreement, the two say goodbye and Wellington leaves. Carlos leaves behind, without saying a single word, just smiled mysteriously at Penha, as if he knew she had just slept with Rubens.Then she takes a forgotten flannel in a corner and begins to try to clean the spilled coffee on the sofa, as it has practically dried, staining the fabric. Rubens, sensing the empty house, leaves the room furious and in long strides.Rubens takes Penha violently by the arm and makes her turn to him. Penha is startled by being taken by surprise and widens her eyes.“Hey, what are you doing?”“What did that kid come to do here?”Penha tries to get rid of Rubens, but he won’t let her go.“Let go of me! He just came to end the lease! He won’t be living in the kitchenette anymore!”“Did you send him to the bar today?”“I was so shocked by his decision that I didn’t even remember!”Rubens squeezes Penha’s arm tighter and she screams more, “You

WELLINGTON KITCHENETTE - DAYCarlos cornered Rosa asking her to explain to everyone how Penha is Ricardo’s sister. She gulps, nervous.Wellington looks at her more deeply than the others.Finally, she decided it was time to end the mysteries. She gets up to explain better, “Yes, people. It’s true. Ricardo is Penha’s younger brother. However, since they moved here and built the building, they have presented themselves as lovers.”“But, why is that disgusting lie?” Everybody notices Wellington’s afflicted and distressing tone.“Because Ricardo believes that by presenting himself as a boyfriend, he prevents other men from flirting and taking Penha to bed.”The girls are embarrassed.Annie blushes and asks, “Doesn’t Penha know how to simply say ‘no’ to the perverts?”“No. She deliberately accepts to sleep with anyone who invites her. She has a boyfriend who is in Europe doing a Master’s or Doctorate and doesn’t even dream that his darling is horning him.”Wellington is very ashamed of him

Chapter 354 Time to revelation
RHODIA AVENUE - AFTERNOONMore people gather to see Célio’s rescue, which hung in the window of Wellington’s kitchenette. Even Aurélio and his clients left the snack bar to see.“Guys, these windows... Who was the idiot who bought these big windows?”Monica, Sandra, and Annie exchange mocking gazes: they all imagined it was Ricardo’s idea with the masons.WELLINGTON’S KITCHENETTECarlos strides in and goes to the window.“Hang in there, boys!”With another strong man, it was easier to pull Célio back safely. When they finally succeed, he can hear the palms and cheers of those present from below. Célio runs to Wellington’s bathroom to throw up, he’s still scared.Wellington and Luís laugh out loud. Carlos then notices the boxes and suitcases, “Hey, what’s going on here?”Wellington stops laughing and announces to Carlos, “Officer, I’m moving out of here. I don’t think is right to live in the place where I have to pay rent for my kidnapper’s girlfriend.”Carlos smiles in understanding,

PENHA’S HOUSE - DAYPenha opens the door for Rubens, who hurries in and looks worried. She closes the door and signals him to sit down.“I was going to offer you coffee, but you need chamomile tea.”“This is no time for jokes, Penha! The situation is getting more complicated.”Penha purses her lips in indifference; everyday things are complicated. She sits in the other armchair, “Every day you live in confusion. You guys don’t seem to want to live in peace. And if I guess, it has to do with Monica and her friends.”Rubens doesn’t like the tone of Penha’s voice and replies harshly, “It has to do with that bastard Wellington who didn’t come to the bar neither Wednesday nor yesterday! What is he thinking?”Penha, on the outside, remains calm and indifferent; but inside, she is overflowing with relief. It was what she wanted most, for Wellington to get out of that snake’s nest, “You’ll see, he found a better job and couldn’t even tell you.”“We paid above the minimum!”Penha is irritated

MIRIAM’S ROOM - DAYMiriam is talking to Fábia Peres. The two got on well again after Sandra’s advice. Cleverly, Miriam leads the conversation to the topic of lawsuits.“Oh, Fábia, you don’t know the worst: I talked to Carlos and he said that he won’t insist on objecting to his fate at the trial. That he will acknowledge that he was wrong and accept the punishment.”Fábia Peres is gaping. Then the officer who always behaved like a warrior, dropping the towel so easily?“What does the officer have in mind, Miriam?”“He said he doesn’t mind losing the case, as long as he can get Ricardo behind bars. He’s gathering proofs and evidence.”“And is Carina going to marry this guy?”“Hopefully, she’ll fall flat on her face when she finds out the whole truth on her honeymoon, with the police invading their suite, ha, ha!”The two girls giggle maliciously.“Girl, on the subject of the trial, I’ve been thinking about something. If the officer is not offended, I can ask my father to pay the compen
