"Kasalanan ko rin naman kasi kabago bago ko pa lang late agad ako. Feel ko, I've let everyone down." "Stop that!" Caleb voice firm but kind. "One mistake doesn't define you," he assured her.

- Maxine "Ang pagkakamali ay hindi pwedeng sundan ng isa pang pagkakamali. Ang galit, puot at hinanakit ay walang magandang maidudulot sa ating buhay. Matuto tayong magpatawad kahit pa sa mga taong nakasakit sa atin.
