Kabado akong sumiksik sa ilalim ng kama ko... Hindi ko alam kung anong nangyayari sa baba, pero naririnig ko ang pag-iyak ng aking ina. "M-master... maawa po kayo... wala pa po talaga akong pambayad sa utang ko..." Aniya ng aking ama, nanginginig ang boses, habang umiiyak. Napatakip ako sa aking bibig nang biglang bumukas nang malakas ang pinto ng kwarto. Nakita ko ang makintab na black shoes na marahan humahakbang sa sahig... nakita kong hinawakan nito ang picture frame na nakapatong sa drawer ko. Maya-maya, binitawan niya iyon at umikot sa kabilang side ng kwarto. Pinigil ko ang paghinga ko, halos gusto kong mawala sa paligid. Mahigpit kong niyakap ang munting teddy bear na iniregalo pa sakin ng aking ama noong 12th birthday ko... pero agad akong napatili nang may marahas na humila ng paa ko palabas sa pinagtataguan ko.

My fiancé, Luca, dragged me along to a party with his crew. We had barely walked through the door before his boys were hounding him to play "Seven Minutes in Heaven." "Angelina, babe, come join us!" Fiona, Luca’s "best friend" from back home, called out to me with a smirk. I shook my head and slipped onto a barstool, my fingers nervously tracing the rim of my glass. I watched them huddle in a circle, drawing cigar bands with names scribbled on them. Luca drew Fiona. They shared a laugh before disappearing into the storage room behind the bar. "Seven minutes! Starting... now!" someone hollered, followed by a chorus of whistles. But seven minutes came and went. The door stayed shut. Ten minutes. Fifteen. Twenty... I finally stood up, my heart hammering against my ribs, ready to see what was going on. Just then, I heard Luca’s friends whispering in a thick Sicilian dialect. "This American guy... her head is greener than a lemon tree in Palermo and she doesn’t even know it." "I bet Luca and Fiona are having the time of their lives in there right now." "Poor Boston girl. Look at her, sitting there like a loyal little dog. Hilarious." I froze. My blood turned to ice, and the air felt too thin to breathe. Suddenly, the storage room door creaked open. Luca walked out, wiping sweat from his brow, followed closely by Fiona, who was busy smoothing out her rumpled shirt. "Whoa, how was it? Seven minutes in heaven live up to the hype?" someone teased. Luca smirked, his eyes glazed with satisfaction. "Better. I didn't want to leave."
