“We’ve arrived in Brazil! This is going to be amazing! Like a fresh start.” My dad says\, I don’t get why we need a fresh start\, but at least\, I can still have 1 thing from the past which will never change\, Simón. “Hey\, Juliaa!! Wait up!!” I am so glad his parents allowed him to tag along with us\, and I actually can’t believe my dad also allowed it. I look behind me and Simón is running to our direction with his arms open\, “Hey dad\, can you please hold these for me?” I give my dad my bags and I start running torewards Simón with my arms open and then we hug…. it looked like a scene from a movie\, and then I began to cry\, of happiness of course\, but he didn’t know that “If you want I can ask the plane to come back\, and leave you here with your dad…” I began to laugh and then I pointed at my dad and we began to walk. “I am so glad you are here! I wouldn’t be able to do anything without you!”. My mom died when I was young\, I barely remember it… and I get sad when I do remember\, but there is nothing I can do about it\, my dad doesn’t feel so comfortable talking to me about her\, but it’s okay\, it must have been hard for him\, to lose his loved wife. In our last few months in Canada my dad started studying Portuguese so he could use it in emergencies but I don’t think he learned so much. “Olá\, preciso a nós un taxi. Por favor.” #*Hello\, we need a taxi! Please (btw he didn’t say it right).*# I began to laugh\, and then corrected “Olá\, nós precisamos de um táxi\, por favor” #*she said the same but the right way*# and then the man just looked at us smiled and said a word I didn’t recognize because of his accent “Touristasss!!!” he cheered\, and then Simón\, said “He looks happy that we are tourists. In my school back in Mexico\, we learned Portuguese.” and then i looked at my dad and said “I think we need Portuguese lessons\, but I’ll let my dad go first\, cause his accent is worst.” and then we got in the taxi\, the guy was super nice and he was trying to speak english to us. When we were off he gave us a discount and his phone number if we ever need help. We dropped off at our new house\, it was big\, and it needed a little bit of help\, but I think me and dad were up for it. We got in and I dropped the bags\, I was so tired from a 11 hours and 6 minutes flight\, and still have to add all the time i’ve been in the airport… and that adds up to more that 24 hours\, math makes me even more tired. I begin to walk up the stairs\, they seem so…. old but on a good way. And just like that…. “Ding Ding Ding” another alarm clock\, another day goes by. I walk to the bathroom and wash my face and then take a shower\, and I decide to go to school with a cute blue dress with puffy sleeves a necklace and a little cottagecory bag\, but all my books fit in it. I put some sneakers on and go downstairs. I arrive in the kitchen and then my dad and Simón look at me with a very wonderful faces\, “You look good\, but make sure to put some shorts under the dress\, there are many perverts in high school.” Simón says\, he is not going with me\, cause he wants to help my dad with the house and he is so happy that his help with be needed\, but poor Simón that will have to answer my dad’s questions. I eat a toast and head outside\, Simón is already waiting for me by the door and I get in\, “I am a bit nervous\, you won’t be there with me.. can’t you come? I’ll be by myself.” Simón suddenly stops the car\, “You don’t need me! You will do great and make a ton of friends. But make sure to not trade me\, huh?” I look away\, breaking the eye contact\, “I’ll never trade you\, or forget about you\, you are a gift from Mexico\, it’s hard to find a best friend who would leave his family to stay close to me.” when I look back at him\, he looks away in the same second\, “It's a selfish gift\, I couldn’t bare to stay away from you. Now end of chitychaty and let’s get you to school” he turns on the car again and then we arrive. “Bye. See ya later!!” I get inside look up\, down and then straight up. “I can do it.” and l take a step forward. “Talking to yourself\, I see.” I look behind me and there is a girl\, actually there are 3 girls\, and the one who talked to me was in front\, and seem to lead the little group. “Yeah\, it’s my first day. Wait\, how did you know I didn’t speak portuguese?” and then she looks at the girls and begin to laugh “Oh sweety\, everyone know about you! You are the reason we had extra english classes.” oh no! I don’t think people like me…. “Oh\, I am sorry then. I didn’t know.” I continue walking and the door\, and I don’t think people are going to be very nice to me. I wish Simón was here to make the pain go away. I walk in the halls and there are many posters\, and the hall isn’t full of lockers. I pause to take a look at my schedurle and notice we have over 700 classrooms here\, and I won’t make it to none. “Hey! Are you by any chance Julia?” I nodded and she asked me to follow her\, and we arrived at the principal’s office\, “Julia\, It’s nice to finally meet you. So\, the school is so very big\, and so we got you someone to help you\, by that\, we mean he volunteered.” a tall guy came throw the door\, he was wearing a nice Harvard hoodie and with a starbucks drink in his hand\, and they he looked at me and I kinda blushed\, but because I am a bit shy… with hot guys.

After dropping Julia off to school just like her dad told me to, I tryied to avoid eye contact but I just couldn't, her eyes were shining and her skin was flawless and she just made me feel like a lucky teen to have her a best friend, I mean, I am luck but sometimes I just wonder… I park the car, give three fast knocks on the door so Julia's dad will know it's me. "Hello Mister Julia's Dad!" and I walk in, he gigles "You can call me Ron" and then I look behind me, "Ron? Like Harry Potter's Best friend?" he walks past me "No, like Romeo and Juliette." and then I began walking up the stairs "I'll get some purple paint for Julia's room" when I got to Julia's room, I felt so good, the room smelled like her, and it just made me want to talk to her, about how I felt. I began taking everything off her room, so I wouldn't get anything dirty. I began painting, but the I began to feel kinda sad, "Hey, Simón. I'mma go get my daughter from school. Be back in 10!" he said shouting, and once I realized that I was sad I got my phone and putted some songs to play.

---------------Happy-Pharrell Williams 3.53m–----------

I begin singing and dancing around, and I suck at both, I letted my voice travel throw the house, I think the neighboors could hear me, I hope they thought it was a Taylor Swift copycat video playing in our tv. But I don't mind, I continue singing and dancing, and then when I do the turn, I see Julia right behind me with her finger with paint about to touch my shirt, "Hold onnn" and then she smiles "Imma touch you and your gonna be purple!" I begin running around her room and when she finally catches me (because I letted her catch me, of course.), we both fall to the ground and then the door opens up and of course its her dad, again, "What are you kids doing? Get to work Simón." he leaves, and I look at Julia

"I am so sorry to ask you mylady, but may you help me paint your room?" I get up and give her a hand "Yes, thank you, you are such a gentleman." and then once we finish laughing I get the paint "Hey Jules, I think I'm gonna paint you!" she looks at me and then at my phone "I think you should turn down the song, don't you?" after looking at the phone and back at

Jules "It's on random... the next song will go by itself" and speaking of the devil, there is the next song

-------------------I'm still into you - Paramone 3.36m -------------

"I though random was based on songs you hear..." I look back at the ground, super emberraced, (I want to vanish so bad...). "Yeah, my mom listened to songs with my dad and we all share an account..." then when I calmed down, and she didn't believe it, I could see it in her eyes, "Can you get me my phone, please? It's in my backpack by the door." while trying to find her phone, and also felling super relieved she believed it, I found a paper, a mini paper from someone's note-book and when I opened it up, I guess someone was passing notes to her in class.

I finished reading it, and looked at Julia, "When were you going to tell me about this?" she looks at me angrily "I arrive from school and here you are singing and dancing in my room, and I didn't have the chance to. I even forgot about with will all the fun I was having." I look down to smile without her noticing, and then pretend I am not okay, "I am going to school tomorrow. To show that rat his place on the earth." she looked at me happily "Yay, but please don't say anything." I gave an evil smile "I won't SAY anything."
