José e Rute são casados há mais de quarenta anos. Eles moram em uma pequena casinha no interior do Rio de Janeiro.
A vida deles é bem tranquila. José é um vendedor aposentado. Rute é “do lar” (profissão que nunca aposenta…rss).
Todos dos dias eles se sentam em seu sofá verde para ler as notícias do jornal e ficarem informados sobre o que está acontecendo no mundo.
Mas a notícia que eles realmente gostam de receber é a de que seus netinhos estão vindo visitá-los.
Eles têm uma gatinha malhada. Seu nome é Fifi. Um dia, quando chegaram das compras no mercado encontraram Fifi sozinha, abandonada em seu portão, e resolveram adotá-la.
Nos primeiros dias Chel, o cachorro deles, ficou um pouco enciumado. Mas com o passar do tempo acabou virando amigo de Fifi. E agora os quatro vivem em harmonia.

José and Ruth have been married for over forty years. They live in a small house in the countryside of Rio de Janeiro.
Their life is very peaceful. José is a retired salesman. Ruth is housewife (profession that never retires … rss).
Every day they sit on their green sofa to read the news from the newspaper and stay informed about what is happening in the world.
But the news that they really like to receive is that their grandchildren are coming to visit them.
They have a spotted kitten. His name is Fifi. One day, when they arrived from shopping at the market, they found Fifi alone, abandoned at her gate, and decided to adopt her.
In the early days Chel, their dog, was a little jealous. But over time he ended up becoming friend of Fifi. And now the four live in harmony.
