Everyone went to their places on the dance floor together with their partners. It is time for Carnet Dance. There are total of 18 songs to be played and everyone were free to choose who their dance partner will be for the last time.

Yanna's friends were asked by guys to dance so she was left sitting alone at the table.

"I thought things will change. I planned so many things and I worked hard for my life to be better."

Those thoughts are playing again and again like a broken record to her mind.

"I'm so stupid! Why do I let that one person ruin everything? Ruin me?" She whispered in frustration.

She grabbed her invitation knowing there is nothing left to do so she read it as slowly as she can, thinking that this 18 songs will be over in no time at all.

As she is scanning the last page of the invitation (and there are STILL 15 songs to be played) she saw those people she is supposed to dance with. And in the first 3 songs, no one bothered to ask her to dance. That is so painful, indeed.

There's just too much hurt a girl can take.

She stared at the invitation a little longer and a tear fell down from her cheeks. It burns like hell. It is like everybody tonight are princes and princesses and she's the ugly duckling.

"This is what it feels like. To feel you're unlovable."

"So dre', who's your last dance?" Warren asked Nathan.

"You already know who." he answered sarcastically.

"Did you asked HER already?" Harry asked.

But Nathan kept his mouth shut. Nobody knows what's going on his mind and right now.

"You'll see but right now... Let's just partaaaaay!" Nathan exclaimed.

The 3 of them stepped on the dancefloor. Everyone were dancing. Some were crying.

The strobe lights added drama to the occasion. It is not a dream, it is their reality.

Harry and Warren decided to leave to look for their princesses and Nathan is left at the middle of the crowded, cold and lively dance floor.

Suddenly he decided to just sit down while everbody is having fun. As he is searching his way out of the dance floor...

"Ouch!" Said the girl he just bumped.

Right then, he knows that leaving is not a good choice after all.

She's always on my mind

From the time I wake up,

Till I close my eyes.

She's everywhere I go. She's all I know.



The Thirteenth song is now playing. And Yanna is not enjoying the night. Good thing there are few guys who asked her to dance so she wouldn't feel like a loser the whole night.

The Carnet Dance is still not over.

She checked her invitation to check who is the next guy she was going to dance with and saw the name she never expected to see.

"Him."

The thirteenth dance partner.

Thirteen - his favorite number.
