Read this fragment of some arms, written by Machado de Assis:
On that day, as night was falling and Inacio was stretched out in the hammock (there was no other bed there), D. Severina, in the front room, recapitulated the dinner episode and, for the first time, suspected something. She rejected the idea right away, a child! But there are ideas that belong to the stubborn flies family: no matter how much you shake them, they come back and land. Kid? She was fifteen years old; and she noticed that between the boy's nose and mouth there was a beginning of fluff draft. What wonder you started to love? And wasn't she pretty? This other idea was not rejected, but fondled and kissed. And then she remembered his manners, the forgettings, the distractions, and one more incident, and another, they were all symptoms, and decided that they were.
