we-look-for-a-great-finale-3-ed1

ADULT CATEGORY – IN SPANISH:

AUNT DANIELA FELL IN LOVE AS INTELLIGENT WOMEN ALWAYS FALL IN LOVE: LIKE AN IDIOT.

13. Jerry makes her feel so wonderful, with him she can go back to being the queen she was in the past.

14. He was handsome as Newman, elegant as 007, but with the brains of Homer Simpson. He didn't know how to see it, his hormones played a trick on him.

15. That was the beginning of his sad end. Because love, misunderstood, begins by placing the soul in the hands of a cretin.

16. Years later she herself would realize the caliber of her initial stupefaction: every time she saw the wedding photos she would burst into tears.

17. She was almost a child then but it was love at first sight and she knew that her destiny was between them: she would be a librarian.
