At eighteen, Penelope Belmonte had everything under control: her future planned, perfect grades, and the presidency of the "amigurumi club" at the Agatha Troiano Institute, a boarding school in Paraná. But the discovery that Benji, her first love, spent the summer torn between her and her cousin Helena turns her life upside down. At the center of school gossip, Penelope tries to cope with the anxiety and the feeling of having lost not only a love, but also her reputation.
