Pangarap ni Dasha na maging isang sikat na author. Gusto niyang makapagsulat ng librong magiging best-seller balang araw. Pero alam niyang hindi magiging makatotohanan ang mga kuwento niya kung wala siyang sariling karanasan, lalo na pagdating sa pag-ibig at sa kama.

Paano pa nila haharapin ang isa’t isa, kung ang gabing iyon ay isang pagkakamaling hindi na kayang itama?

The day my girlfriend got back together with her first love, I boarded a plane bound for Brindlewood. She told her first love, "Craig was just a fling. I won't have anything to do with him anymore. From now on, I'll only be by your side." Her friends all worried I might cause a scene. But they didn't know—this time, I wasn't going to make a fuss.

In just two weeks, I'd lose all contact with the outside world and dive into a secret project for the next ten years. From that moment on, there would be no ties between me and her anymore.
