Many people have been moving to the New Quackmore Institute.
Some were benefactors who donated some of what they had to expand the institute.
One day, the Three Caballeros had nothing to do today so they just hung out around the house, except for Jose Carioca.
He went out for a walk, enjoying such a lovely day.
Just then, a beautiful young woman was walking his way, with a book in her hand
The two of them were both within their thoughts, hoping for more in life and wishing that they would meet their destiny.
Jessica-
The Sweetest Sounds, I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The Kindest Words I'll ever know
Are waiting to be said
The most entrancing sight of all
Is yet for me to see....
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere.... Somewhere for me.
Jose-
The sweetest sounds I'll ever hear
Are still inside my head
The Kindest Words I'll ever know
Are waiting to be said
The most entrancing sight of all
Is yet for me to see....
And the dearest love in all the world
Is waiting somewhere for me
Is waiting somewhere.... Somewhere for me.

They both weren't looking where they were going.
They bumped into each other.
She dropped her book.
"I'm terribly sorry." Jose said.
He picked it up, their hands touched and their eyes met.
It was as if they felt this spark.
This special connection.
"No. No. My fault entirely." She said with a sweet western accent.
"Forgive me for staring, but you have the most beautiful eyes I have ever seen." Jose said.
She smiled and blushed.
"Thank you. But they aren't that pretty." She said.
He chuckled.
"Oh I beg to differ, my dear. Two of the brightest stars in the whole sky had to go away on business, and they're asking your eyes to twinkle in their places until they return. If your eyes were in the night sky, they would shine so brightly through space that birds would start singing, thinking your light was the light of day." He said, taking her hands.
She smiled and blushed again.
"Oh my. You, sir, are quite the charmer." She said.
"I have my ways." He chuckled.
"And with such a lovely accent you have, I'm guessing you're not from here." He said.
"No. I'm from Texas. Beautiful state of the west." She said.
"And I'm guessing you ain't from here either, based on that charming accent y'all got." She said.
He chuckled.
"You are correct. I am from Baia, Brazil. Have you ever been?" He asked.
She shook her head.
"No? Oh I'm so sorry for you." He sighed. "Baia. It is like a song in my heart. A song with love and beautiful memories. Que saudades que eu tenho. Ah, Baia. I close my eyes, and I can see it now. I can see the beautiful twilight in the sky. I can feel the breeze from the bay. And I can hear the music, the music of Baia." Jose said.
"Wow. That's deep. It sounds like a beautiful place." She said.
"It is. But then again, I have something more beautiful right in front of me." He said.
She blushed.
Just then, a voice called out, "Jessica! Jessica!"
"Oh that's my daddy calling me. I gotta go. It was nice meeting you. See y'all around." She said. She ran off.
Jose watched her as she ran and felt his heart.
"Jessica. The most beautiful sound I ever heard. Jessica Jessica Jessica. All the most beautiful sounds of the words into a single word. Jessica Jessica Jessica. Jessica! I just met a girl name Jessica. And suddenly that name will never be the same to me." He recited as he made his way back to the shack.
"Jose, where have you been?" Xandra asked.
"I just met the woman of my dreams." He said.
Meanwhile, "Jessica, where have you been?" Her father asked.
"Oh just went to the library. And I met someone." She said.
"Who?" He asked.
She just realized.
"Oh I forgot to ask his name. Oh well, I'm sure I'll see him again. He was a very kind gentleman." She said.
"I hope he is well to do. Like we are." He said.
She rolled her eyes.
"Oh daddy, honestly." She said, annoyed.
She went to her room.
"I hope I see him again." She said.
