Ribbons of Love on the Bridge
Sofia loved to walk by the canals in Aveiro. One sunny morning, she was walking near the Ponte dos Laços de Amizade. This bridge was special because many people tied colorful ribbons to it. The ribbons were for wishes and for friendship.
While Sofia was looking at the ribbons, a young man bumped into her gently. He was carrying a small bag. "Oh, excuse me!" he said. His name was João.
Sofia smiled. "No problem," she replied.
João noticed the ribbons on the bridge. "Do you know why people put ribbons here?" he asked Sofia.
"Yes," she said. "It's for wishes and for friends."
João took a colorful ribbon from his bag. "I want to put one for a new friend," he said, looking at Sofia.
Sofia felt her face get a little warm. "That's a nice idea," she said.
Together, they tied the ribbon to the bridge. Their hands touched for a moment. It felt like a small spark.
After tying the ribbon, João asked Sofia, "Would you like to walk with me by the canal? I was going to get some 'ovos moles'."
Sofia smiled again. "Yes, I would like that very much."
As they walked and talked by the water, with the colorful ribbons waving on the Ponte dos Laços de Amizade behind them, it felt like maybe this new friendship could become something more.
Now you can do the QUIZ.
