Helena starts shaking her head, refusing to go, but gradually, her gesture turns into a yes accompanied by a broad smile for Bruno. "Great! Let's take my bike," Bruno says, walking towards the back of the shop while holding Helena's hand. She follows him, under the curious gaze of their friends, who don't understand Bruno's actions. Bruno adjusts the bike and then helps Helena get on the back. The blonde feels awkward, not knowing where to hold on, and then Bruno places her hands around his waist. "Hold on tight," he said. He starts pedaling, making an effort not to focus on Helena's breath on his neck as she tries to balance. The feeling of her being there, holding him, sends shivers down his spine and warms his heart, as if he had been expecting this moment for a long time. Helena, on the other hand, is intoxicated by the scent of Bruno's cologne. She tries not to admit it, but it's challenging to contain herself while feeling the defined abs of the young man. The two get lost in

Bruno takes Helena to his parent's room, and while the young woman stands at the door, he goes to the wardrobe and opens it. Bruno doesn't need to search much and finds some well-packaged female outfits. He takes two of them and tosses one toward Helena. "Found them," he says, tossing one of the outfits to her. "See if it fits you." "Here? Is this your room?" Helena asked, apprehensive. "Uhm, no... Come on," Bruno beckoned, taking Helena's hand and leading her to his room. He opens the door and points inside. "Make yourself comfortable." "Thank you," Helena said, entering Bruno's room. She turns around and notices Bruno still standing by the door, watching her. "Could you... close the door, please?" "Oh, sure. Sorry. Let me know when you're done," Bruno asked, before closing the door. Helena then turns around and starts removing her clothes, trying on the first outfit, which fits her perfectly, to her surprise. She puts on the second one, and it fits her like a glove, making her

After Helena changed her clothes, the trio went downstairs, hearing Loreta humming in the kitchen. Nilton enters the room before Bruno and Helena, and she holds onto Bruno's arm, catching his attention. "What is a Blue Marine Fish?" she asks. "Have you never heard of the best dish in the world?" Bruno asked, smiling. He takes Helena's hand and says, "Come, you'll have a unique experience today." They enter the kitchen and find Loreta cutting the sea bass, while Nilton sets the cast-iron pan on the stove. Helena observes the fish, which is nowhere near blue, surprised. "Shouldn't the fish be blue?" she asks, catching Loreta's attention, who smiles at her. "There's no fish that is blue in color," Loreta begins, placing the fish in a bowl. "Come, I'll teach you how to make the dish. Boys get out of the kitchen; today, I'll cook with my daughter-in-law." Bruno and Nilton look at each other, concerned. It's been a long time since they left Loreta unsupervised, especially with a woman.

Regina approaches the couple, furious. How could her daughter have been there on the street kissing a complete stranger? She looks at the young man and, to her surprise, recognizes Bruno. Regina narrows her eyes, glancing at Helena, and then mutters between her teeth: "Come in now, Helena." Helena looks at Bruno one last time, picks up the bag from the ground, and enters the guesthouse, being observed by Regina, who remains outside. Then Helena's mother turns to the young man and says: "Bruno, isn't it?" "Yes, that's my name," Bruno responds, offering a smile to Regina, who remains serious. "Listen well to what I'm going to tell you: forget that Helena exists. She's engaged..." "I don't think she is, actually... From what she told me, she was practically left at the altar," Bruno argues. "She's going through a difficult time, and your presence could interfere with her recovery. So stay away, young man. My daughter is not for you," Regina concludes, turning toward the guesthouse.

Bruno arrives at the store early, anxious. He couldn't sleep at night thinking about the kiss he gave to Helena. He tried to remember the last time he had felt this way kissing someone. The only thing he was sure of was that he needed to touch Helena's lips again. "Good morning." "Good morning," Bruno replies, turning around and finding Marcelo standing at the store's entrance, which makes him raise an eyebrow. He desired Helena's lips, but for some reason, now he was face to face with her brother. "How can I help you?" "Bruno, right?" Marcelo asks, approaching and taking off his sunglasses. "I came here to let you know that Helena won't be doing the tours with you anymore. I'm here to cancel any connection between my sister and your company." "Is there any reason for this decision?" Bruno asks, already knowing the answer. From Helena's mother's expression the night before, he knew he might not see Helena again. "Personal reasons," Marcelo informs, evasive. "Okay, but I can't put

Minutes before...Regina walked through the inn's hall with her luggage when she noticed Helena at the reception, which brought a satisfied smile to her face. Finally, they were going back to São Paulo, and Regina could try to convince her daughter to resume her relationship with Leandro. Of course, Helena's mother would still have to talk to the boy's mother, but she saw that as a mere detail amid her plan to finally secure a comfortable life. Augusto would undoubtedly be thrilled to know that she and her daughter were very well settled in Ibirapuera. Regina could already imagine herself moving her body on the vast lawns of Ibirapuera Park. She was so cheerful in her thoughts that she didn't even notice Helena's approach, who didn't seem very happy."What's wrong now, Helena?" Regina questioned."Nothing...""Did you check out? I can't wait to breathe the air of São Paulo again.""You mean to breathe the polluted air of São Paulo," Helena corrected, adjusting her long, flowery dress.

Helena and Bruno cycled through the picturesque streets of Paraty, their bikes gliding smoothly beneath them as they explored the charming town. The sun-kissed their faces, and the warm breeze caressed their skin, creating an idyllic atmosphere. As they rode side by side, their hands occasionally touched, sending electric shivers down their spines. With a smile on his face, Bruno led Helena to the precious Nossa Senhora do Rosário Church. He explained the rich history of the church, its importance to the community, and the beautiful architecture that adorned it inside and out. Helena listened attentively, her eyes shining with genuine interest as she absorbed every word he said. When they reached the entrance of the church, Bruno stopped the bikes, and they gracefully dismounted. Bruno's heart skipped a beat as he saw Helena enter the imposing entrance of the church. Every movement she made was graceful, and the play of light through the colorful windows made her look almost ethereal

Helena fully embraced the outings with Bruno, who convinced her to do not only bike rides but also a schooner tour of beaches with crystal-clear waters, white and pink sands, large waves, rocks, and the lush forest descending from the hills. He insisted on taking photos of Helena enjoying the sun touching her skin, or laughing when she caught him taking pictures of her. Helena also visited some islands and went snorkeling and diving. In addition, with Bruno's guidance, she explored some waterfalls that made her sigh, like the Cachoeira do Saco Bravo, a small waterfall with a delightful natural pool nestled in the rocky coastline of Ponta da Juatinga, from where you could see the sea so close that it felt like an infinite pool.However, none of the tours compared to visiting Bruno's parents, who always insisted on having them for lunch and afternoon coffee, even though Loreta always repeated the same kind words to Helena. The blonde loved being close to them while waiting for Bruno to
