"Hi!" agaw niya ng atensyon nito na nagpalingon sa babae. The girl had very black eyes and thick eyelashes na alam niyang napapatungan ng mascara. Her blood-red lipstick emphasized her thick lips. The girl must have been a celebrated actress. Walang salitang namutawi sa babae pero matagal siya nitong pinagmasdan. He waited for her to smile back pero sa halip ay recognition ang namuo sa mga mata nito. "You!" Bigla ay nakaduro ito sa kanya with a furious look of anger on her face na hindi niya maintindihan kung saan nanggaling. "What are you doing here, huh?" Hindi niya namalayang nakalapit na ito sa kaniya. She looked furious she could probably breathe fire. "I... I stay in the hotel," lito niyang sagot. "Why are you so angry?" "Oh... you don't remember me, do you?" gigil nitong pakli at hinampas ang kanyang dibdib. "Hey, what the hell?" saway niya dito. "What did I do?" "You ruined my life, that's what! You ruined it! I hate you so much!" Hindi na niya nagawang mangiti sa intensidad ng galit na nakikita sa mga mata ng babae. He felt her shaking and he could see her suppressing her sobs. She was genuinely raving. Muli ay pinasadahan niya ng tingin ang babae, and then it hit him. He felt a punch in his gut nang lubusang mapagmasdan ang mukha nito. Her black sparkling eyes, he imagined it without mascara. Her perfectly shaped nose, lips that drove him nuts. Ang mahaba at kulot nitong buhok na dati ay tuwid na tuwid. "How dare you!" sigaw ulit nito. "You forgot about me? How dare you! After all the things you've put me through..." Tuluyan na itong napahagulgol and he couldn't find a word to say. Hanggang sa nagtatakbo na ito papasok ng entrance ng hotel. Nanatili si Jake sa kinatatayuan, he was trying to make sense of what had just happened.
