to his place took him the results.

He was pleased,

smiled from here to here.

I like waking up in the morning,

take my birds down to the gate...

I sit there listening to them sing,

I don't fly kites anymore...

now I have a son, a wife...

and also because I'm looking

for a job, so I can't.

I'm no longer single, when I was

single I used to dance, sing...

dance funk, mostly funk.

I was a ladies man,

I used to date a lot.

Now, that I've started liking

Edilene I've stopped.

GEMINI ALEX:

EDILENE, I LOVE YOU

It 's my star sign and

my wife's name.

The same day I did it she had one

too, with my name on her foot.

And this baby Edilene is expecting,

it 'll be my greatest dream...

which I want to fulfil with her,

because I love her.

MARIA JOS, EDILENE'S MOTHER,

I dreamed of having a betterlife,

but I never made it.

I thought I wouldn't get

pregnant anymore...

but my daughter's father was

always coming here to visit...

we had sex and I got pregnant.

But he says he

won't take responsibility...

he says I'm now pregnant because

I wanted it, but I didn't want it.

I did everything to get rid of it,

he even had me drink special teas...

to get rid of the baby,

but nothing worked so I let it come.

Love, I think it 's something you

feel inside, and I do like him...

I mean sometimes I get angry

at him, but I still like him.

He wasn't my first man.

To be honest I was

I was curious to see what

it would be like.

On my first time I only used

condom, didn't take any pills...

I never took the pill.

And he didn't like condoms much...

we only used it to start with then

later he didn't want to anymore.

Even so it 's a sort of miracle,

because he always used to...

come inside me and nothing

ever happened, not till now.

But it 's better like this...

My child can grow up

together with me...

and we can go out together,

to parties...

it can go out with me

and hang out.

I think I've still got

a childlike side to me.

JOS GENTIL,

EVELIN'S FATHER

It was a shock for me, because

she's still my young daughter.

She's still so small she plays

with dolls, sometimes I go to...

her bedroom and she'll be combing

her dolls, arranging her room.

She sucks her thumb when

she sleeps, watching TV.

Just a child. If we'd given

her a little more attention...

a little more love,

she wouldn't be pregnant.

I swear she wouldn't.

I'm guilty too.

I told him:
"If you want

my daughter...

you've got to

change your lifestyle.

You're putting her life at risk,

and her family's.

This isn't good for us,

so see what it is you want...

because if the worst suddenly

comes to the worst...

and you're in here with us,

they'll come looking for you...

and then what 's going to happen?

They come here and shoot you...

shoot my children,

you'll destroy my family.

So think about what you're doing.

Juninho, he's shy...

a joker like me,

we're like two children...

together with all my sisters

here at home...

a bunch of clowns,

all fooling around.

Sometimes he dresses up as

a woman to make us laugh...

and the girls dress up as men.

But as soon as my mother arrives,

Juninho the clown dies...

Juninho goes all quiet.

My mother goes on about

getting married...

but we don't want to marry.

I don't know...

I don't like the idea,

we'd have to wear a ring.

Things are fine just

as they are.

Where's granny's tummy?!

Let 's see granny's tummy!

So, I'm there at work

feeling nervous...

LCIA, ALEX'S MOTHER

waiting my mobile phone to ring.

My God!

I get so anxious,

waiting for Edilene to phone...

on the landline or on the

mobile phone. I'm there waiting.

When I heard she was pregnant,

we went to Dr. Dieter's clinic...

to do the ultrasound.

I cried,

I couldn't control my feelings.

I'm not just a mother-in-law,

I'm a mother, I'm her mother too...

because she's so young, so's he.

I was 16 when I had Alex, 16 to 17.

I was also very young when I had

him. So what I couldn't give...

my children, I'm giving my

grandson, with all my love.

- Are you staying here?

- No.

- Why not?

- You know why not!

- Why?

- Because! You know.

Edilene, look,

put yourself in my place:

Dating you I'd have sex without

a condom, right? For ages.

- With her too!

- No, not with her!

- With her too. You told me.

- No, wait a minute!

Let me finish!

For ages I had sex with you with

no condom and did you get pregnant?

- So what, Chuleco?

- Did you get pregnant?

So what?!

It happens quicker to some women.

- It was my bad luck.

- Bad luck!

It was my bad luck!

My bad luck!

I'm not talking to you.

Yeah.

I'm not talking to you.

You say you're not

going to argue anymore...

and before long

you're arguing again.

I don't understand you.

I'm going to wake Evelin,

sleepy head, she's still asleep.

Went to the party last night.

The party on 1st Street,

went partying, big time.

She went out at 1 am, with her

brother and sister-in-law...

they'll be round soon.

Her boyfriend went with her,

too, they had a big fight...

if he hadn't gone they would

have broken up.

She said if they didn't go

she never wanted...

to see his face again.

They arrived home late, arguing.

I woke up with them arguing.

Teenager stuff.

But I think they sorted it out.

I don't know if he's in

there sleeping with her.

Evelin!

Open up!

- What is it?

- Open up!

What 's wrong?

Speak to your mother

properly, Evelin!

Open up!

Oh mom, give me a break!

What 's wrong with you,

young lady?!

That 's terrible,

slamming the door in my face!

Well I did, so there!

Hey, get dressed, get up,

go on, get out of there!

Hey, lvan!

Come here!

What a lot of candles!

And we haven't even

reached my age yet!

I used to think Luana

was happier...

more of a teenager.

And suddenly, all at once,

she wants to be a married woman...

to have this responsibility

she knows it 's not the right time...

and at the same time

she wants none of it...

wants to swap her mind with

that of Talita, who's 5.

Sometimes I even lose my

patience, I even slap her...

because you're talking

to your daughter...

who thinks she can answer you

back only because she is pregnant...

I don't accept that!

I said:
"Luana, when the baby is

born, I'll do everything I can...

to get by,

but help me a little!"

That 's all I ask, a little help.

I'm tired.

I start working at 6, 7 am...

I hardly have time for lunch.

I get so tired, sometimes I get

home wanting to rest a little...

and I never can, an argument

here, shouting, fights...

when I finish my day at work,

I often think I'll just walk off...

and not go home,

because everything I do for them...

it 's as if it were no use,

I do so much.

Not all mothers would accept

a15 year-old daughter living...

with a boy in her own house...

feeding them, washing their

clothes, it 's simply not on...

usually the daughter who gets

pregnant goes after the boy...

because it 's his, so he should

take responsibility for the child.
