Melissa P. Page #2

Synopsis: Melissa lives with her mother and her grandmother in Sicily. She has a close relationship with her grandmother, a heavy smoker, who seems to be the only person in the world who understands Melissa. Melissa's father lives in another country. One day Melissa and her friend go to a party at a school friend's home. While there, Melissa meets Daniele, a boy from the school, and has her first sexual experience. The experience is far from being what Melissa always has dreamed it would be, because Daniele forces her and later forgets her. However, Melissa has fallen in love with Daniele. Back at school, when Melissa tries to get Daniele's attention, he barely remembers her. He takes advantage of Melissa's feelings for him, convincing her to have sex with him whenever he wants. When Melissa discovers Daniele's true motivations, she takes revenge by having even wilder sexual experiences with him and other boys. She even begins keeping a diary to document her sexual experiences. Melissa's mother

I'm smoking the last one!

I'll pass you to her.

Hi, darling!

Of course I'm taking my medicine.

Why do you always say

the same thing?

And then they say

that old folks lose their minds!

"Dear Diary,

my family is a disaster.

Father is so far away,

Mother doesn't understand a thing.

Thank God I've got Grandma

and Manuela, my best friend."

Slow down!

You shouldn't be afraid

with me! Ever!

Okay, but be careful!

- You trust me?

- Yes, you're the best!

I hate gym...

...but I'm sure

Manu hates it more than I do.

At least we don't have to study.

This year I want something different.

Every day at school

I hope to see him.

It's happened twice already,

in the hallway.

He didn't see me,

or he pretended not to.

How strange, I feel my body

much more than before.

I lik e it...

...but with him I'd lik e it even more.

Did you get excited?

Wow, you're well-equipped!

Who would have thought?

Relax, it's just envy.

I want him. I'm so sure.

Yes, I went to see

the one you suggested.

It looked like a prison!

No, I found another one.

A luxury one. Wait a moment.

Here it is!

"Elegant ambience...

...highly qualified medical personnel."

Eighteen hundred euros.

No, I still haven't spoken

to her about it.

You know it's not easy with her.

Why don't you speak to her?

Okay, okay. I'll try.

Melissa?

Yes, she'll be upset

at the beginning, but later...

You know how children are.

Don't worry,

I was firm about the moped...

...but she always drives Manuela's.

She signed up for swimming lessons.

This time she's really going to learn.

Hello? Can you hear me?

Hello?

Elvira!

I lent it to Melissa

but now I need it.

I'm having tea with some friends.

How can you live with such a mess?

At least in my own room

I can do as I please, no?

Here, this was in the living room.

Forgive me.

It won't happen again. I promise.

How can you go out at this hour?

Do you want me to come pick you up?

Don't worry, I'll take the bus.

No, no, take a cab.

Cabs are expensive.

It's okay. I'll pay for it,

don't make me worry.

I have to talk to you...

...but not now,

you've got things to do.

Tell me, my friends will wait.

- Did you take your pill?

- Yes.

No, I didn't take it.

But that's my business.

No, really it's our business also.

They are good for your heart.

My mum hates Grandma.

Sometimes I think...

...it's because she's jealous

of our relationship.

Thank God she can't interfere

between Manu and me. I adore her.

According to her, I need to be brave...

...and talk to Daniele, face to face.

They said Daniele's already here!

Look at me.

Look at me. Look at me.

Look at me.

But you're Melissa!

You've grown,
