The Halloween party arrived, we finished the shootings and went to get ready, I was looking for to know what would Jô wear, I already imagined her wearing pantyhose and a short tight dress, all made up... I had a delicious bath, I put my costume, I was almost like an English lord of the mafia, I even had a cane to remember the character, I took my mask and opened the bedroom door, I heard some screams in Jô's room, everything indicated that the girls were getting ready in the same place, why do they do everything together? I went to the hall where the production agreed to have the party, there was a big paper that indicated that I was in the right place, I saw some crazy people in costume, one of gladiators, who was certainly our producer, a cowboy who I quickly discovered that he was Carter, Chance was all covered with his costume, all in gray, I also found Louise and decided to talk to her, who was next to Frances, the two in costumes, Frances even had a cigarette in hand:

"Look at him! Hero, your costume looks amazing."

"You who are beautiful!"

"Have you seen Jo's costume?"

"Not yet... It's the one I most want to see..." I thought better after I said it, I maybe spilt about us... No... But Louise looked at me with the same face that Dylan and Chance used to be suspicious so I try again:

"I mean... Everyone is talking so much about her costume, so I'm getting curious... Just for that..."

"Hmmm, I know... Yeah... Everyone will be surprised!"


After a while the girls arrived, Kiana was a pirate, Castille in a medieval dress, but when Jô arrived, I couldn't stop laughing:

"No! You didn't choose that costume!"

"It's amazing! It matches with me and I love pigs!"

I couldn't stop laughing, everyone went towards Jô, she really managed to surprise who was in the salon, still not believing that she was a big pig, with ears and everything, once again she broke the whole idea that I had and she surprised me and my thoughts!


We had a lot of fun, very carefully, as always, everyone was wearing a mask, and washing our hands all the time, we couldn't catch this disease while still having days of shooting... We danced, ate, talked with everybody, we took a photo to remember that day, Jô hid in the back of the room, as always, I don't know how she managed to get into that huge outfit... So, during the party, I finally went to talk to her:

"You really surprised me!"

"I knew I would! I liked yours, it suited you!"

"Really? Do you think I look like someone from the British mafia?" She laughs.

"No, but it is very stylish..."

"Oh! Thank you!"

I look at her, who finally looks back to me, directly in my eyes, we stared at each other for a while and I can't help it...

"I miss you..."

"Hero... Could it be that even when I'm dressed as a pig you can't hold that tongue?"

"You know what you can do to hold my tongue, don't you?"

"Hero!" She speaks angry but smiling, indicating that I speak quietly.

"What?! Did you think nonsense? What a polluted mind Jô!"

"Seriously, this is not helping our plan!"

"Plan?"

"Yeah... To keep the distance between us! And..."

"And... Stay with new people..."

"Yeah! Isn't that what you wanted, big boy?"

I remain silent, it was more than obvious to me at that moment what, or who I wanted... But I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, looked at her again, who was incredibly beautiful, even inside a big pink ball with ears and tail.

"Okay Jô... I'm going to stop..." I say this in a calm voice, I reasoned in seconds, really, if we want distance, I must collaborate with this, so I turned slowly and went towards the others at the food table, I look quickly to Jô who had just sat down, I see better and notice that Carter is recording my gir..., she... So, I talk to Louise and Chance again.


We all liked the party, we drank a lot, we sing again at karaoke, but in a funny way, we jumped, we laughed, we ate, we talked nonsense, so when I was really tired I decided to go to my room, I said goodbye to all the guys, the strongest group, who endured to spend more time drinking and enjoying the party, when I arrive at the door of the hall, everyone responds to my gesture, including her who was in the middle of everyone dancing, if what she was doing could be called a dance, she was jumping around inside the pink ball, I laugh at the scene, pick up my cane and leave for my room.
