Have you been to Baia?

Over the next few days, Jose taught Jessica how to be confident and stand in front of others so she can sing.

She has been doing so much better.

She began growing quite fond of Jose.

Everything about him made her heart soar.

One day, Jose and Jessica were relaxing on Jessica's front porch, talking. 

"Now tell me, Jessica, have you ever been to Baia?" He asked.

"No." She said.

"Oh I'm so sorry for you." He said. 

He sighed dreamily. 

"Baia. It is like a song in my heart. A song with love and beautiful memories. Que saudades que eu tenho. Ah, Baia. I close my eyes, and I can see it now. I can see the beautiful twilight in the sky. I can feel the breeze from the bay. And I can hear the music, the music of Baia." Jose said.

"That was beautiful. I'd love to go." Jessica said.

"Well then, let's go." He said, taking her hand and bringing her to the house. 

"Wait, right now? We would need to plan a trip, hon." She said.

"Oh no need, love." He said.

They stopped right in front of the house.

"Wait right here." He said. 

She nodded.

He went inside.

"Xandra, I want you to transport me and Jessica to Baia, please?" He asked.

"I don't know." Xandra said.

"Please." Jose said.

"Okay. I will." She said.

"Oh thank you." He said, going back outside. 

"We're on our way, my dear." He said, taking her hands.

Xandra snapped her fingers and transported the two to Baia. 

"Welcome to Baia, Jessica." Jose said.

"Oh my. It's amazing." She said.

Jose chuckled. 

"Oh you haven't seen anything yet, dear." He said. 

He lead her all around Baia.

There was singing, dancing, and so much fun. 

They then came across a party. 

Everyone was dancing.

Party in Ipanema, baby!

I want to party

I want to samba

I want to party

I want to samba

I want to party

And live my life (live my life)

I want to party (party)

And fly

Imma fly, fly just like a bird

(But you are a bird! )

Oh yeah, you're right,

So let me fly just like a rocket, then (okay)

Fly so high where I need to come down for oxygen

Cause once we start it, baby, ain't no ain't no stoppin' then

'Cause I just want to live my life, and party

All I want is to be free, and rock my body

Ain't nowhere around the world that I want to live my life

In Rio

Jose started dancing.

Jessica watched him happily.

He then took her hands, spun her around and dipped her.

She smiled, stood up and started dancing, then vocalizing to the song.

Jose watched her dance so gracefully with the sun shining down on her.

He was just mesmerized by her.

And at the end of the day, they enjoyed a beautiful sunset.

"I had a wing ding time. It's a great place you got here, Jose." Jessica said.

"It was my absolute pleasure, my dear." Jose said. 

He took her hand and kissed it.
