Sa limang taon nilang kasal, kailanman ay hindi naramdaman ni Aina na asawa siya ni Alexander Montero. Ang lalaking minsan niyang iniligtas, ang dahilan kung bakit siya ngayon ay pilay, ay nanatiling malamig at mailap, at bawat taon, parehong relo lang ang ibinibigay bilang regalo. Hanggang sa gabing narinig niya itong umuungol ng ibang pangalan. Si Juliana. Ang babaeng unang minahal ni Alex, at ang babaeng bumalik para bawiin ang lahat. Habang muling bumabalik si Julie sa buhay ni Alex, unti-unti namang napupuno ng sugat ang puso ni Aina. Pero ngayong may pagkakataon na siyang makaalis, pipiliin ba niyang manatili sa piling ng lalaking hindi siya kayang mahalin o tuluyan nang tapusin ang isang kasal na kailanman ay hindi naging kanya?

Ang ampon ng aking ama ay ikinulong lamang sa masikip na storage closet nang halos labinlimang minuto, ngunit tinalian niya ako at itinapon sa loob bilang parusa. Tinakpan pa niya ang ventilation gamit ang mga tuwalya. "Bilang nakatatandang kapatid ni Wendy, kung hindi mo siya kayang alagaan, marapat lamang na maranasan mo rin ang takot na naramdaman niya,” seryoso niyang sabi. Alam niyang may claustrophobia ako, ngunit ang aking mga desperadong pakiusap, ang aking matinding takot, ay sinagot lang ng malupit na sermon. "Magsilbi sana itong aral sayo para maging mabuting kapatid." Nang tuluyang lamunin ng kadiliman ang huling hibla ng liwanag, nakakaawa akong nagpumiglas. Isang linggo ang lumipas bago muling naalala ng aking ama na may anak pa siyang nakakulong at nagpasya siyang tapusin na ang aking parusa. "Sana'y naging magandang aral sa iyo ang isang linggong ito, Jennifer. Kung mangyayari pa ito muli, hindi ka na pwedeng manatili sa bahay na ito." Ngunit kailanman ay hindi niya malalaman na matagal ko nang nalanghap ang aking huling hininga sa nakakasulasok na silid na iyon. Sa kadiliman, unti-unti nang nabubulok ang aking katawan.
