A barraca dos beijos roubados

Tulipa nasceu e cresceu no morro do careca, uma favela em S o Paulo, um lugar pequeno e tranquilo. Naquela noite quente e abafada, incomum ao m s de junho, uma quermesse trouxe alegria aos visitantes e moradores do local.

Lembrou-se da persegui o dos colegas por causa de seu apelido, o prazer de soltar pipas com os poucos amigos e das garotas em sua vida. Tr s meninas dividiam seu cora o e, naquela noite, ele deveria decidir qual seria sua primeira namorada: a vaidosa Karina, Sara, a filha do pastor evang lico ou Claudia, a "louca" com visual g tico e traumatizada. Apenas ele e as flores conheciam a escolhida.Tulipa was born and raised on the hill of Careca, a favela in S o Paulo, a small, quiet place. On that warm, muffled night, uncommon in June, a cherm brought joy to visitors and locals. Tulipa, dressed in a rustic fashion and wearing a terrible hand-painted mustache, helped in his mother's flower-stall, and every now and then he found himself drawn into the past by memory. He remembered the pursuit of his peers because of his nickname, the pleasure of dropping kites with the few friends and girls in his life. Three girls shared his heart, and that night he had to decide who his first girlfriend would be: the vain Karina, Sara, the daughter of the evangelical shepherd or Claudia, the "madwoman" with a gothic and traumatized look. Only he and the flowers knew the chosen one.
