“Hayaan nating manatiling ganito ang lahat, Ashley. Huwag na nating ipilit. We did something awful in the past, hindi na dapat maulit pa.” Tuluyan niyang binaklas ang palad nito at walang lingon-likod na naglakad patungo sa sasakyan. Binuhay niya ang makina na hindi nililingon ang babae. They could never go back to the way they were. Ashley would remain one special friend, hanggang doon na lang.

Ang pinaka-ayoko sa lahat ay ang makitang lumuluha ito. Nagbabalik sa aking alaala ang mga panahong labis itong nasaktan sa pagkawala ng mga magulang nito.
