After Christmas fast the days went by and finally the day came December 31. I helped my mother, grandmothers and aunts with New Year's supper. In the early evening we were talking, eating some snacks, listening to great music and drinking. Around eleven-twenty in the evening went to Roger's house and met him, Paul, Layla, Vick and another youth and went to the city center on foot to watch the fireworks display. When turned night we shook hands wishing a Happy 1968. I returned home around half past midnight for supper with my family. Roger went to his house because he had family there as well. On the first of January after I had lunch with my family I went to the house Vick and Layla greet their relatives. By late afternoon we spent at Paul's house and then went to the home of Roger greet their relatives. We will be in Truro until January 18. Classes at the University of London return twenty-one. The days passed quickly until he came on January 4. My family in Brazil would leave on the sixth. Roger's family who live in King's Lynn too. This afternoon day I am in Roger's house in his room when he heard the full LP of The Who that had bought him for Christmas. He had not heard all the songs. At the end of the LP he was ecstatic, especially praising his idol Keith Moon.  

I was looking deeply into the characteristics of Roger: her blue babies eyes, face your target without any beard and his hair longer. My God, Roger is every day more enjoyable. 

No wonder that the girls sigh when he sees it. 

- Thinking of that princess? - I'm actually watching him. - I say smiling at him. 

- Your hair is growing and you are more handsome. 

- Glad you liked it, princess. I intend that my hair grow further. 

He looks at the clock. It's four thirty in the afternoon. Her mother left with his grandparents and uncles to the city. Clare is in the room watching TV. 

- Yasmine you want a snack? It has cake that my mother did. 

- I want, Rog. - Smile. - When we get back to London I will return to my diet, but very fattening. 

- You do not need to diet, princess. - Your body is wonderful, with all due respect. 

It is the first time that Roger speaks to me of my body. I blushed with shame. He noticed and hugged me. 

- You are more beautiful when she is embarrassed - he smiles and kisses my forehead.  

We went into the kitchen , down the stairs and Clare was not in the room watching television . We figured she was in her room. Into the kitchen and made a snack. After a while to get back to the living room Roger approached the window and saw that Clare was outside talking to a boy of her age . He called me and saw the boy. The two were smiling and very close. 

- Who is this boy? I will talk to them. 

- Rog wait. Sometimes it is ... 

- Must be what , Yasmin ? You know something I do not know ?  

I was silent for a moment. And now? On Christmas Eve I talked a lot with Clare regarding school boys. She told me that some wanted to stay with her, including Luke, a boy of his class, black hair and green eyes. And the boy who was talking to Clare at the gate has these characteristics. I hope they do not kiss because they see Roger is able to make a scandal. 

- Yasmin, you know something? - He asked me seriously. 

- I ... I ... 

- You know - he laughed sarcastically. - Hiding things from me now, Yasmin? 

- Rog course not. 

- So answer me. - He asked again. - Did Clare is dating secretly and told to you? At this time the boy gives a peck on Clare. Roger is possessed by jealousy. - No need to say anything else, Yasmin. - Says looking at me seriously. - I'm going to my room. When Clare into the house I want to talk to her seriously.
