Isang gabi, nahuli ni Shuvee ang asawang si Azrael sa banyo habang binabanggit ang pangalan ng ibang babae. Sa loob ng five years of marriage, ngayon lang luminaw ang lahat na hindi siya ang mahal nito. "Shuvee, Scarlett is pitiful coming back alone. I'm just helping her as a friend," paliwanag ni Azrael habang nag-eempake para sa kabilang kwarto. "I understand," tipid na sagot ni Shuvee. Maging ang birthday ni Scarlett sa isang private island ay pinuntahan nito. "I promised her, Shuvee. I'm just fulfilling a promise," giit ni Azrael. "Okay," sagot niya muli. Kahit nang sabihin nitong mas "suitable" si Scarlett bilang assistant sa isang banquet kaysa sa kanya, tumango lang siya. "Okay, go ahead." Nang tuluyan nang tumigil si Shuvee sa pag-iyak at paggawa ng eksena, naguluhan si Azrael. "Shuvee, why aren't you angry anymore?" tanong nito. Hindi na siya galit dahil tapos na siya. Secretly, she studied English, passed the IELTS, and secured her student visa. Noong araw na lumabas ang approval, nilapag niya ang divorce papers. "Don't be ridiculous. How will you survive without me?" Azrael sneered. She didn't answer. She flew to Europe and vanished. Months later, a video went viral where Shuvee, in a stunning red dress, dancing freely under a foreign sky. Nanggigil si Azrael habang pinapanood ang ex-wife. "Shuvee, I will bring you back even if I have to go to the ends of the earth!"
