“Let’s get divorce, Gale.” Nahinto sa pagsasalita si Sunset dahil sa sinabi ng asawa. Sandaling hindi niya maiproseso ang sinabi nito. Nablangko ang kanyang isipan habang nakatingin sa seryosong mukha ni Lucian. “Let’s get divorce.” Sa pangalawang pagkakataong ulitin iyon ni Lucian, tila bombang sumabog sa kanya ang anunsyo ng asawa. Pagkalito ang sumunod niyang naramdaman nang iritableng inilayo ng asawa ang pagkakadikit ng hubad nilang katawan na para bang may nakakahawa siyang sakit na dumapo lamang pagkatapos nilang magniig. Ganoon na lang ba iyon, pagkatapos siya nitong makuha, ang tingin na sa kanya ay isang basura? “Hindi magandang biro iyan, Lucian—” “You don’t want to? Magkakaroon ka ng sariling buhay. Limang taon na ang kinuha ko sa ‘yo, dagdagan ko pa ba ang pang-aabala ko?” Tumayo mula sa pagkakahiga ang asawa niya. Ang nakatalikod na matipuno nitong katawan ay tinakpan ng roba. Kaagad namang naibalot ni Sunset ang hubad na katawan sa puting kumot. “M-may problema ba tayo, Lucian?” naguguluhan niya pa ring tanong sa asawa. “Kung may mali sa akin, susubukan kong baguhin. May nagawa ba akong ikinagalit mo? H-huwag mo lang akong iwan kase hindi ko kakayanin…” “Babalik na si Eveth dito sa Pilipinas.” Hinilot nito ang sentido na para bang naiinis na sa pagdadrama niya. “Masasaktan siya kapag nalaman niyang nandyan ka pa." “Naiintindihan ko…” “Saan ka pupunta?” gulat na tanong ng asawa nang makita siya nitong nagbibihis. “Saan ka sabi pupunta?” “Hindi mo ba nakikita?” May kalituhan na tumingin sa kanya si Lucian. Hindi nito inaasahan ang magiging reaksyon niya. “Ano bang akala mo, magmamakaawa ako?” natawa nang bahagya si Sunset bago mabaling ang tingin sa tseke na nasa ibabaw ng side table. “Akala ko namamalikmata lang ako kanina. Hindi ko lubos maisip na limang milyon lang pala ang halaga ko!”

"Hector, totoo ang sinabi ko sayo. Gusto kong magka-in love-an tayo, at magkasama nang seryoso, tulad ng magkasintahan, mula sa pagiging estranghero hanggang sa magkaintindihan tayo. Gusto kong maranasan yung pakiramdam na pantay tayo. Ikaw si Hector, bilang si Hector na asawa ko at hindi tiyuhin ng ibang tao, at ako si Anne bilang si Anne na asawa mo at hindi kasintahan ng ibang tao. Mag-ipon tayo ng mga alaala, isang taon, dalawang taon, tatlong taon, sampung taon, kung okay lang sayo?" Inabot ako ni Hector at hinila para umupo sa kanyang kandungan, at sinabi nang mahinahon "Okay, pero, love, wala akong karanasan, kailangan mo akong turuan pa. Pero..." Hindi ko alam kung sinasadya ni Hector na biglang huminto at hinaplos ang kaniyang maiinit na labi sa gilid ng aking mukha "Pero... Pagdating sa pagkahulog, dapat ang lalaki ang mag-initiate. Maghintay ka lang, susuyuin kita."
