"R-Reed.... A-Anong ibig sabihin nito?" Halos manlambot ang tuhod niya sa nakita at nag-uunahan sa pagbagsak ang mga luha sa pisngi niya. Si Reed ay nakikipaghalikan sa isang babae at halos nalihis na ang soot nito pababa. Nakatalikod ang babae kaya hindi niya makita ang mukha. "Aliyah, Baby..." Naitulak ni Reed ang babae kaya nahulog ito sa sahig. "Ouch! What the h*ck!" Mura ng babae kay Reed. "Reed.... Ano? Magpaliwanag ka!" Sigaw niya habang nanginginig ang boses at punong-puno ng hinanakit ang mga mata na nakatitig rito. Tumayo ang babae at hinarap si Aliyah, "Well, well, well! Mabuti at nasampal na sayo ang katotohanan. Ilusyunada!" Bumaling ito kay Reed, "Babe, sabihin mo na sa kanya. Para hindi na tayo nagtatago." "Avery, get out now!" Kinaladkad ni Reed si Avery ngunit pumiglas ito. "Pwede ba Reed, magpakatotoo ka sa sarili mo. Alam kung ako pa rin ang mahal mo. I feel it, the way you kissed me." Inis na sigaw nito.
