"Dear Diary,

today is the last day of school.

The summer is starting.

But the most important news

is that Manuela and I...

...have been invited to the swimming

pool at Daniele's house!"

"I've waited for

this moment for months.

Maybe this time

he'll pay some attention to me..."

Elvira!

Elvira!

Could you wake your granddaughter up?

I'm running late.

Melissa, hurry up,

you're going to be late for school.

Elvira?

What are you doing?

Can't you hear me?

Please, can you do it?

I'm late,

I still have to finish getting ready.

Sorry.

All right, I'll do it myself.

What a mess!

- Sweetheart, the alarm!

- Go away!

Sorry, darling, but you're

going to be late for school.

Get out!

We arrived at 4 pm.

SUMMER:

On the whole way there

I just wanted to turn back.

My heart was in my mouth.

- Wait, don't ring!

- Why not?

It's still early.

No, it's not, this is the time

Titti told us to come.

Feel this.

- I don't feel anything.

- But how!

It feels like it's about to explode!

Let's get out of here.

Come on! You've had a crush on him

for a year and now finally...

I look terrible today.

No way! You look gorgeous.

What if he finds out I can't swim?

- Stay away from the pool.

- And if he kisses me...

...and realizes it's my first time?

- Are you crazy?

With all the rehearsing we've done!

- Who's that?

- Which?

- The only fuckable one.

- You're here!

Don't let her run away!

Pin her down, Patrizio!

No! Please let me go!

Put me down, don't be a bastard!

- Hello, Manuela.

- I'm Manuela.

I'm Melissa.

- Well then hello, Melissa.

- Daniele! Come here!

Excuse me.

Well, I...

F***ing a**holes, my shoes!

These shoes cost me

two hundred euros.

- Who is that girl lying down?

- Lavinia, Arnaldo's girlfriend. A b*tch.

Don't even try throwing me

in the water or I'll kick your ass.

Honey.

I'm going over there.

Be careful,

they'll throw you in the water.

No! She can't swim!

Help her!

Do something!

Were you scared?

Me? No.

I thought you knew how to swim.

Yes, I can swim, but...

I got scared all of a sudden.

But you just told me

you weren't scared.

After!

You got scared.

Come on! I'll show you

the nicest part of the garden.

So you don't know how to swim.

I can teach you one day.

You can come back,

without all these people.

- Well?

- Well what?

Will you come?

- Yes.

- You like it here?

Yes.

And you like me?

- Enough.

- What does your father do?

Engineer.

- He builds streets?

- No. Oil.

He's on a platform

in the middle of the Indian Ocean.

He'll be back within a year.

And your mother?

She sells bridal gowns.

- Do you have any brothers?

- No. Just a friend.

- You confide in her.

- Yes.

- Do you tell her everything?

- Yes.

And what will you tell her about me?

I don't know.

You look like a kid.

How old are you?

Fifteen and a half.

- Do you have a boyfriend?

- No.

Do you?

- What?

- A girlfriend!

No, I don't.

Are you a virgin?

Yes.

- How many times have you been kissed?

- Twice.

Which one did you like the best?

The first.

Get up.

What do you want from me?

You want to kiss me?

You want to kiss me?

You want to kiss me?

You want to kiss me?

Yes.

Then kiss my dick.

Put it in your mouth.

What are you doing?

Maybe next time

you'll kiss me on the mouth.

I haven't seen him since that day.

I've spent a gloomy summer

full of choking tears...

...waiting for a phone call

that never came.

I wanted to vanish,

to fly away very, very far...

...lik e my father,

to the other side of the world.

AUTUMN:

Don't make that face.

Relax!

I'd like to see you in my place!

After what happened he disappeared!

Forget about him,

he doesn't care about you.

I never said he cared about me,

but I care about him.

And it gets worse every day.

Let's go.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

- Good morning.

Come in, young ladies.

We were very glad

to wait for you, right?

Roll!

- Abemo, Elisabetta.

- Here.

- Bozzini, Manuela.

- Here.

Caldiron, Clelia e Leo.

- Here.

- Here.

De Angelis, Marco.

First day of school.

I'm so nerv ous.

A new student. Good start!

I must see him. But he isn't here.

Holidays are over for everybody,

except for him.

I am Marco De Angelis.

You know I should kick you out?

No, too easy. Come on in.

Find a place.

I try to hate him

for what he did to me...

...but I can't. I still love him.

At the favourite seat.

They call it the Seat of Death.

He's so cool!

What a loser!

Ah, you're a tough one!

Let's inaugurate the register.

With a nice three.

He doesn't know

how much I lik e him.

Even though he humiliated me,

I forgive him.

If I could hold him tight,

just once, I'd mak e him understand.

Call me, my love.

Call me, call me...

...call me...

- One...

- I'll go!

...two...

...three...

Yes, it's morning here!

I'll pass you to her right away.

And how are you?

Melissa, run, it's Dad!

Melissa!

Open up! It's Dad!

Why do you two always

lock yourselves in there?

Do you want to talk first

to your mother or your daughter?

Daddy, you know

I dreamt about you?

Yes, we were in Paris,

but it was our house.

It'd be more practical

if you used your own bathroom.

- I'm being good. But you be good too!

- At least don't lock yourselves inside.

No, I'm begging you!

Please, don't smoke.

- It bothers me in the bathroom.

- I'm still waiting for your e-mails.

I'll quit right away!

I'm smoking the last one!

I'll pass you to her.

Hi, darling!

Of course I'm taking my medicine.

Why do you always say

the same thing?

And then they say

that old folks lose their minds!

"Dear Diary,

my family is a disaster.

Father is so far away,

Mother doesn't understand a thing.

Thank God I've got Grandma

and Manuela, my best friend."

Slow down!

You shouldn't be afraid

with me! Ever!

Okay, but be careful!

- You trust me?

- Yes, you're the best!

I hate gym...

...but I'm sure

Manu hates it more than I do.

At least we don't have to study.

This year I want something different.

Every day at school

I hope to see him.

It's happened twice already,

in the hallway.

He didn't see me,

or he pretended not to.

How strange, I feel my body

much more than before.

I lik e it...

...but with him I'd lik e it even more.

Did you get excited?

Wow, you're well-equipped!

Who would have thought?

Relax, it's just envy.

I want him. I'm so sure.

Yes, I went to see

the one you suggested.

It looked like a prison!

No, I found another one.

A luxury one. Wait a moment.

Here it is!

"Elegant ambience...

...highly qualified medical personnel."

Eighteen hundred euros.

No, I still haven't spoken

to her about it.

You know it's not easy with her.

Why don't you speak to her?

Okay, okay. I'll try.

Melissa?

Yes, she'll be upset

at the beginning, but later...

You know how children are.

Don't worry,

I was firm about the moped...

...but she always drives Manuela's.

She signed up for swimming lessons.

This time she's really going to learn.
