Helena was sitting on the living room couch, gazing at the engagement ring that sparkled on her finger. Beside her, Leandro was also lost in his own thoughts, lost in contemplation. They had been together for years, since Leandro's proposal on the emotional night of Antônio and Emanoel's graduation. However, the wedding date had not yet been set.The postponement of the wedding was not due to lack of desire or love between them, but rather due to a series of unexpected events that had arisen. First came the news that Isabel, Helena's eldest daughter, had been accepted into an MBA program at Harvard. She was ecstatic about the opportunity but also missed her family and wanted to be present at her mother's wedding. So, Helena and Leandro decided to postpone the ceremony, so Isabel could attend.Months passed, and when Isabel finally returned, she brought with her a surprise: the news that Antônio, Helena and Bruno's eldest son, was expecting a child. Helena w

Helena was sitting in front of the computer in her home in São Paulo, organizing the final details of Antônio and Melissa's wedding at Bruno's farm. Meanwhile, Bruno was coordinating the preparations on-site, ensuring that everything was perfect for the big day.The computer screen displayed Bruno's image, who seemed busy but excited. He was checking the arrangements of the wooden benches in the farm's garden while listening attentively to Helena's instructions.“So, Bruno, I think if we arrange the benches this way, we'll have enough space for all the guests to comfortably watch the ceremony,” said Helena, pointing to the layout she had prepared.Bruno nodded, appreciating the view on the screen. “Great idea, Helena. I'll make sure everything is exactly as you planned.”As they continued discussing the final details, the office door opened, revealing Isabel, Helena's eldest daughter, who had just arrived from New York

The midday sun bathed the city of Cuiabá with its characteristic warmth as Bruno eagerly awaited the arrival of his children and other relatives for Antonio's wedding. Seated on the porch of the house, Bruno watched the quiet movement of the streets, his restless mind echoing with thoughts about the imminent event.The past few days had been filled with preparations and planning to ensure that everything was perfect for the big day. However, something seemed out of place, something Bruno couldn't fully identify. Helena, his ex-wife, with whom he maintained a complex relationship of love and resentment, had changed her behavior in recent times.The usual video calls to finalize the details of Antonio's wedding had abruptly ceased, replaced by formal and distant emails. This change bothered Bruno, but he tried to attribute it to Helena's nervousness about her son's wedding. However, a part of him wondered if there was something more behind this change in behavior.

Bruno was momentarily surprised by Isabel's confession. His heart filled with a mixture of emotions — surprise, disbelief, and above all, hope. He processed his daughter's words, pondering the meaning behind them.“How do you know that your mother didn't marry Leandro because she still loves me?” Bruno asked, surprised by Isabel's assertion.Isabel looked at him earnestly. “It's easy to see, Dad. I see the way she looks at you and how much she loves,” she explained, trying to convey what she had noticed for a long time.Bruno pondered for a moment before responding. “Helena has always been affectionate with everyone, not just me,” he replied, trying to downplay Isabel's observation.However, Isabel insisted on her perception. “Besides, I overheard the argument between Leandro and Mom the other day. He accused her of stringing him along, saying that if it were you, she would have said yes right away,” s

The soft music filled the ballroom as Antonio and Melissa, the newlyweds, prepared for their special dance. Antonio held Helena's hand, his mother, tenderly, while Melissa was in the arms of Bruno, her father. The looks of pride and love between the parents and their children reflected the joy and emotion of the moment.With graceful movements, Antonio and Helena began to dance, spinning gently across the ballroom as they smiled at each other. It was a moment of deep connection between mother and son, a celebration of the special bond they shared.Meanwhile, Melissa and Bruno glided across the dance floor, their harmonious steps reflecting the happiness and harmony of their relationship. Despite having been husband and wife in the past, they shared a mutual affection and respect, supporting their son in this special moment.After the first dance, Antonio and Melissa gathered in the center of the dance floor, ready to continue the celebration. With radiant smiles
