The Passionate

Girl

Natália Brito

Once, there was a very passionate girl named Carla who studied in a public language

school called CILT. One day she met a

boy and had a crush on him. It was love

at first sight.

She decided to talk to him after her

gym class. She found out that his

name was Pablo. As she spoke to him she noticed they

had many things in common and she

fell in love with him.

She was deeply in love with him and she was

always happy, because she had found love. Her eyes twinkled like two

bright stars.

She couldn’t stop thinking about him.

Even when she was in college she

couldn’t get him out of her head and

neither could him.

He went to college by car...

... and she, on the other hand, went on

her skates.

She loved him and so did he. Finally one day he asked her to date him and they began a wonderful and genuine love story.

However, when she told her mother,

her mother didn’t let her woe him and her father didn’t let either, because she

was only sixteen and Pablo was

already twenty.

Pablo’s mother also didn’t want to

let him date, bacause she wanted him to focus on his

studies.

So, Carla became very sad...

Her mother was very angry, because

her dream was to see her daughter

graduating and this romance could ruin

her dream.

She tought for a long time on what she could do. Then she invited Pablo to talk to her parents

with her and so they did. After her parents was

convinced that Pablo was a good

person, they agreed on their date. She decided that from

then on she wouldn’t let anyone break them apart...

Now that they had their parents approval, they didn’t care about what other people said. Sometimes she was shocked on how cruel

people can be with their gossips, but her love was stronger.

So, they got married and they have been happy and passionate until this day.
