Nag aaral pa po ako! 3rd year nako, malapit na ako grumaduate! Hindi ba kayang maaantay yun?!" "Hindi." Sa loob ng isang araw na yun, hindi na alam ni Astrid ang kanyang gagawin. Lahat ng pagod, galit, gulat at pagkabalisa naramdaman niya, ngunit wala naman siyang ibang magawa kundi tanggapin na lamang. Eh ano pa nga bang magagawa niya? Pumayag na ang kanyang nanay? Hindi rin naman ito makikinig sa kanya. Ngunit ng paggising niya galing sa kanyang mahimbing na tulog, ay kaharap na niya ang tatay ng kanyang papakasalan.

Ngunit bakit wala siya rito?! Natulog lamang siya, at pag gising ibang tao na siya?! Anong ibig sabihin non? Siya ba ay namatay? Sa buhay din na ito, siya ay papakasalan sa hindi niya na naman kakilala, at nakamaskara ito?!
