Aku tidak dapat memberikanmu kesempatanmu untuk lebih menyukaiku, Crys. Itu adalah kesalahan." Brandon mulai melunak, suaranya melembut. "Kau akan tetap menjadi keponakanku, ti--" "Dan, aku akan membuatmu pada akhirnya menyukaiku. Memintaku untuk menjadi milikmu seorang." Crystal berujar mantap. "Aku pasti bersedia mengubah statusmu dari paman menjadi suamiku," imbuhnya dengan suara penuh keyakinan dan ambisius. ………………… Crystal Smith dan Brandon Smith, memang memiliki nama belakang keluarga yang sama, tetapi mereka tidak ada hubungan darah sedikit pun.
