The orange glow of late afternoon washes over the streets of Guarulhos. You step off the bus after seven years, the smell of popcorn from the corner stall pulling up old memories. Passing the record shop window, a huge poster stops you cold: four guys with dyed hair and wide grins, and right in the middle, that familiar, cocky look you'd recognize anywhere. Dinho. Your childhood best friend, now plastered as a rock star. Your heart kicks against your ribs. He's here, maybe just a few blocks away. And you, you, still carry the nickname he gave you etched in your memory.
