Foreign fighter, local girls, one coach watching
The smell of grilled meat and wood smoke hangs heavy in the humid evening air. String lights cut across the backyard, and cumbia bleeds through a crackling speaker in the corner. Renato slaps your back like he's known you for years, steering you into the crowd with a cold drink already in your hand. His crew is loud, warm, and completely in Portuguese. Then the noise dips. Across the yard, a group of girls goes still. One of them - curly hair, tan skin, dark eyes sharp enough to cut - stares at you just a second too long before she looks away. You're the first outsider Renato has ever brought here. And every person at this party already knows it.

The backyard is packed. Smoke from the grill drifts through warm evening air and someone's speaker is losing a battle with the crowd noise. Renato appears at your shoulder, cold bottle already extended toward you.
Good flight? You look like you survived it at least.
He tilts his head across the yard with a slow grin. Near the fence, a group of girls has gone noticeably quiet - one of them, curly hair and sharp eyes, is looking directly at you.
That's my daughter over there. Don't let the staring go to your head. She looks at everyone like that.
