In Lagoa da Italianinha, the childlike beggar Rita de Cássia and the chic beggar Warlla often clash with each other. On several occasions, Warlla even threatened to take Rita's doll and throw it away.
Rita has always lived on the streets, but Warlla has only been a beggar for three years. However, she has already caused numerous troubles and has always had a knack for being quarrelsome and provoking conflicts.
One night, Rita de Cássia and Warlla met and stared at each other. Rita said:
- What is it? Do you want to take my doll?
- Well, what do I want your dirty, ugly doll for?
- Don't talk about Dalila like that!
Warlla laughed and said:
- Stop being silly! It's a doll, wake up!
Rita said:
"You're the fool, wearing those rich-looking clothes, but you smell worse than me, you're dirtier than me, and I've lived on the streets since I was a girl, unlike you, who only came to the streets the other day."
"Oh, I feel like slapping you. But I won't lower myself. A lady like me won't lower herself to you."
"A lady???? You????
"Yes, darling, I am a lady. I may not have a house, but I'm still a lady."
Warlla left, and Rita de Cássia, picking up her doll, said:
"I swear I won't let her hurt you, Dalila."
