The meaning of Fajutos, dont ask me cuz not even i know what it means... we just know that we were all Fajutos! Paulo, Adam and Me, we met shooting the soap opera, Morangos com Acucar (strawberries with sugar), in Portugal! Paulo was the main character of the serie (Fred), i was his best friend (Luca), and Adam was the brother of his girlfriend Alice (Dino)... i remenber the first day i got to the studios, Adam came to me, saying: Welcome! We had met before downtown lisbon, i couldnt forget his eyes so clear like the blue of the Hawaiian water, Paulo was the boyfriend of a good friend of mine, Cinha Jardim, i met him with her one night out, he was the typical latino macho-man, hot as hell, no smiles, always serious! LOL... that day i discovered i was gonna play his best friend... our first scene was like:
(Luca and Fred look at each other)
(Luca and Fred hug each other)
(Luca and Fred hug once again)
(Luca and Fred hug again and smile at each other)...
In the soap-opera we were really good friends! But for some reason in real life our personalities were having a big trouble conecting, out of the recording space, we would argue or not even talk sometimes... in between Paulo and Adam, everything was different, they bonded, i would see them hanging around all the time!
I cant explain exactly how it happenned i just know that after 6 months of shooting together somehow we got the chance to know each other better... and the good vibe of the sitcom was transported to real life, suddenly we were "inseparable"! The 3 Fajutos, we were so into each other that we started living together, they moved into my place! It was Heaven... i mean... in between partying, shooting, girls and signing autographs, that was our lifes, always with somewhere to go, even if it was make a 5 hour trip to go see "Dzrt" (the band of the soap-opera) or travel to eat seafood... Paulo was like the father figure (GOD), he would drive us all over, Me and Adam were the crazy ones... the Angels (white and black), thats how some fans would call us... we were all over the place! Even when Paulo was out, or tired to go out, we would do our party... Lisbon was under control, we owned it! But then Octuber came and i had to come to NYC for a show, and i never went back... things started happening here for me, i was done with the soap, and i decided to stay a lil longer, and a lil longer and a lil longer... up till now... my house i left it with Paulo, my home is your home, i have in him a friend, a brother... as for Adam!
Adam, had a car accident april 16th this year, and... he passed away... he was only 22 years old!
This is hard... if i only knew that the day they took me to the Aeroport (picture), was going to be the last day i saw him, if i only knew that day they called me, all drunk, it was the last time i heard his voice... there is nothing i would've changed... cuz we never had problems saying: I love you or I miss you!
We enjoyed every single moment we had together! Adam is the one that started calling me: "Pasky", baby pasky... basicly all my portuguese friends call me Pasky=Pascoal. Once he was so drunk he wanted to sleep, Paulo was busy in the bed-room, and we had to sleep together... and he said: "wow i'm going to sleep with the prince, i feel so honored" and he kept repeating it, till he fell asleep... LOL... he was hilarious! With all the traveliing that i do, Adam once asked: "what is the trip of your dreams?"
i said: "i already made it, coming to portugal"
he said: "mine is to come back to earth"
Stop, think! Adam, was like an Angel... curly blond hair, blue eyes and a babyface, it took a sec to anyone to call him "Anjinho", with a great sense of humour, always smily and happy, he was the favorite character of the kids, "Dino" everybody loved "Dino", in between us, he brought live to the studios every morning even Patricia the producer (some would say: upset lesbian) was in love with him... now when i see the episodes with Adam and Me... i cant think of anything else but the fact that i wish i spent more time with him... more of those perfect times! I also cant help but think that if i was in Lisbon i would've been inside of that car, with them, where only one, out of 4, survived!
Me and Paulo, Paulo (2x), are now left in the world, with no Adam, but i'm sure he is watching over us... he is doing his JOB!
Adam, just make sure you dont party too much up there! Adam its a party himself! Take it easy on the rest of the Angels...
As for Paulo (the sexiest man in portugal, statisticly prooved by public viewer).... We keep it Real and Tight! He is buying a new house, and i dont know how is it gonna be for me back there... i'm so scared! They made me feel home! The truth is that being far somehow helps me overcome easily, i havent been there ever since that happenned... do i want to go? I heard our house was invaded by the fans searching for a solid memory of Adam!
P.S.: enjoy every moment of your life, express yourself, you never know when someone is not gonna be around!
