      Loved the plot❤. Characterization is remarkable but the best part is way the composition of words.

    Chapter 1 The Friends

    1998In the reign of Royal Hill, the sun shines in a cloudless sky, on another beautiful morning in the Rhodia River neighborhood. It’s a housing district for working-class families but non-slum, well-presentable, mostly quiet, and decent residents. We have the main square called Praça da Granja, the church, tree-lined and paved streets, houses with minimal fences or walls, buses traveling, and finally, the main avenue. This one is busier, with small and varied shops, and people traveling on the sidewalk. We have a facade of Cascais Bakery, Cor-de-Rosa Stationery Store, and Malthus Snack Bar.Near the snack bar, Monica Silva, 19, light-brown, serious, and responsible, dressed socially in a woolen coat, is walking hurriedly to the local.AT THE MALTHUS SNACK BARMonica enters and takes a look.

    GRANJA SQUARE - DAYCássio is kicking a soccer ball by himself. He trains to juggle, kicks into the goal, and celebrates alone. Without him noticing, behind him, Sandra, 18, his girlfriend, approaches him. She smiles at Cassio for having fun."Good morning, future national champion!"Cassio turns to her, "Sandra!"Cássio interrupts the move, approaches her, and the two kiss briefly. Sandra feels his stench."The worst part of it all is the olfactory result.""Ofal—, what?""Oh, dear, if you are not going to solve the hygiene issue, at least solve your studies. We aren’t going to perpetuate the idea that a soccer player is dumb.""I'm not a donkey, but what is 'perpetuate'?"Sandra holds out a laugh, "It's like, letting that legend that I told you perpetuate. Soccer players should have at least the basic education.""But, we have the basic education. It turns out that soccer is played with the ball and not with books.""Yeah, we have completed high school—"Cassio raises his hands to th

    FRONT OF THE MONICA HOUSEAround our characters, workers are returning to their homes, and mothers are calling their children from the street to come back inside. Monica and Carina take a deep breath, not in the mood to see what Fabia Peres, 20, the classic dumb-blonde, but with a hot body wants. She has her arms crossed, huffing."What is it, Fábia?""I wanna know what the hell this garbage is doing here in front of my house!"Monica looks at the floor: garbage, paper, and magazines are scattered on the sidewalk of her house. Fábia is a neighbor of Monica's left.Monica is calm, somewhat mocking, "I'll explain, Fábia. This is not mine. It's yours.""But, how can you throw something like that in my face? Are you calling me a pig, are you?""Pig, no; maybe, inattentive? Our garbage truck goes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. If you put the garbage on Sunday or Saturday, the dogs come and tear everything up; even more so in your case, since you don't have a high basket to stop them."

    Chapter 5 Falling in love with the policeman (1)
    AT THE POLICE STATION - NIGHT Chief Carlos pins the thief on the wall; he wants to know if there is a gang forming in the neighborhood. There's tension and suspense. The thug starts to stutter and doesn’t look straight in the eye. "Y-you are going crazy, man! T-there are no gangs forming here, no. I did it on my own!" "What's your name?" "Uélton!" "Well, Uélton, I think I'm going to let you spend the night here to let you reflect on what you've done. If there's no one behind you, then you're just an inexperienced person. Think, reflect on what you want in your life." Uélton is almost crying, "Okay, "cop", it was my bad..." Carlos looks almost fraternally at Uélton; he could be his little brother. Carlos straightens up and leaves the cell, letting Uélton let out a sigh of relief. At the reception, Carlos walks slowly, going to his desk. It’s a small neighborhood police station, just for cases like these of minor importance. Some policemen are doing other things, answering the p

    Chapter 6 Falling in love with the policeman (2)
    CARLOS'S LIVING ROOMCarlos is already bathed and wearing light clothes, a tank top, and shorts, sandals on his feet. He emerges from the kitchen with a beer can in his hands. Carlos is single; the house shows it by the furniture and the slight disorganization. Carlos sits on the couch and takes the remote to turn on the TV, but stops when he hears a woman's voice."Carlos? Can I come in?"Carlos leaves the remote and the can and goes to the door. She opens it and appears Miriam Abreu, 18, red-haired, helpful. She has a plastic bowl in her hands, indicating something to eat. Carlos smiles and lets her in."I brought it for you. It's my mother's recipe: iced coconut cake with lemon-flavored icing. I even scraped the peels to give them a green color.Carlos opens the pot and sees the generous piece."Thank you very much, Miriam. Do you want anything?""No, I came to see how you are doing. You know, Cassio told me that you prevented a thief from robbing Monica. Surprising.""Isn't that ri

    Chapter 7 'Cats'
    MONICA’S LIVING ROOM - DAYNow Monica receives Annie. She is chewing on a bag of cookies, while Monica is satisfied with a cup of green tea. There is a cup for Annie on the coffee table. The two friends go on talking and eating —drinking at the same time."I didn't see you yesterday, my friend, after the incident. So, did everything do well?""If you are referring to me arriving at the publisher on time and delivering my manuscript, yes, of course, it worked. Now let's see if it will work out for me to be called by that phone and be informed that they are going to publish. And may they pay me at least R$ 2.00 per book.""Monica, this is very little! They will sell the book for at least R$ 20.00; why only two bucks for you?"Monica smiles smartly, "If I sell a million copies, I will earn TWO MILLION royalties, do you understand?"Annie chokes on the piece of cookie she chewed, "Yeah, I hadn't seen it from this perspective!""That's how you win in life, darling, thinking calmly and in th

    CASCAIS BAKERYAnnie goes inside the Jonas family commerce. The man himself is at the counter, delivering bags of products to satisfied customers who leave. The place is tidier than the Malthus snack bar and has more varieties of pasta. Annie goes to the showcases, shelves, crates of sweets, cakes, cookies, and homemade pieces of bread.Jonas arrives from behind and begins the dialogue, "I haven't seen you that happy in a while."Annie suddenly turns to him, "Oh, Jonas, you scared me!""Sorry, it wasn't my intention." He is kinder than yesterday, "What will it be today?""Is your father there?""He went to pay bills at the Lottery. I'm glad you arrived on time."Annie talks and goes to a table. "Yeah, start with one of those capuchins that only you know how to prepare the way I like it, and those sugar-filled donuts I saw there.""Your wish is my command!"Jonas smiles sweetly at Annie and leaves.Annie, also smiling, starts to think about the conversation she had with Monica, "Poor li

    MALTHUS SNACK BAR - DAYMonica and Célio are sitting at the table, which has already been served. They eat and talk.Célio begins, "Monica, I understand that you have been brave since we met, but... Now we are in other domains. We left our parents' skirts. So I ask you to be careful when facing certain people.""Oh, are you worried about me, Célio?" Monica reacts with emotion.Célio reacts by shaking his head, "N-no, Monica, what’s is it? Your father will be here shortly after, knocking me down. I respect you, I'm not flirting with you."Monica launches a joke, "Especially because in flirting you are not very good."Célio did not catch, "Anyway, that Ricardo worries me. Mysterious, creepy, alone... He has already got into some trouble and you know that he cannot be trusted. Today you were with Carina and Fábia, but... Imagine, one day you’ll go there alone, at night..."Monica says thankfully, "I appreciate the concern, Célio, but I'm not that careless. I’ll never be alone with him at

    MALTHUS SNACK BARCélio and Monica pay for the lunch and say goodbye to Aurélio."I received it from Seu Tito and I came to honor you soon.""I thank you for your preference, Célio. With this money, I’ll buy a broom, as the citizen said."Monica replies, "Ah, don't you mind that guy, Seu Aurélio. Yes, clean up your business, for hygiene and customers, but not for him." She turns to Célio, "I need to stop by the Cascais bakery.""I’m gonna see Cássio in the square".Monica is thrilled, "Thanks for the invitation, Cé. I loved it." She says to Aurélio, already leaving, "Bye, Seu Aurélio!""Bye!" after she left, he is mocking Célio, "how is it? 'Cé'?"Célio adds dignity, "Hey, Seu Aurélio, it’s not a good tone to make fun of a lady.""Am I missing something?"Célio talks almost to himself, "IT´S ME who is losing if I don't act soon. Time is cruel.""I can get nothing with this philosophy."Célio speaks when he leaves, "We’ll talk later, Seu Aurélio."Aurélio laughs and takes a flannel to c
