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?!
