Nang magising ang lalaki ay agad niyang inutusan ang kanyang mga tauhan na hanapin ang babaeng kanyang nakasiping upang panagutan at pakasalan ito. Ilang araw ang nakalipas ay nalaman ni Zinnia na buntis siya at hindi lamang ito isang sanggol kundi tatlo, naging masaya naman siya subalit malungkot niyang naisip na baka hindi niya kayang gampanan ang pagiging ina. Naisip niya ang lalaki sa bar subalit pumasok ulit sa kanyang isipan na baka hindi ito panagutan ng lalaki.

Tinanong ng lalaki kung ano ang nais ni Zinnia, naisip ni Zinnia na kailangan niya ng pera. Binigyan naman agad ng lalaki si Zinnia ng pera.

Isang araw habang naglalakad si Zinnia ay bigla siyang may nakabangga, isang babae na mayaman ang dating. Humingi ng tawad si Zinnia subalit hinusgahan lamang siya nito, sabi-sabi pa ng iba na ang babaeng ito ang nakatalang ipapakasal sa isang pinakamayang CEO na si Mr. Youtan.
