"I came here to pick you up. Doon kayo sa bahay ko."
"No," matigas muli na tanggi ni Aris. "We're staying here."
"Well, you don't have a choice. In two days, matatapos na ang construction ng garden at kailangan ka roon."
"What? It's only been three days–"
"Nagdagdag ako ng tao kanina para may trabahador na gagawa sa umaga at gabi. The expected time of completion decreased to five days. Even now as we speak, you can move back to your house. Sa dami ng mga contractors kong nasa garden ngayon, imposibleng magparamdam si Dexter. Pero pag-alis nila pagkalipas ng dalawang araw, anong magagawa mo kung biglang sumulpot si Dexter lalo't tatlo na lang kayo at injured ka pa?"
"I'll cross the bridge when I get there."
Kinunutan ng noo si Capri. Nagtaka. At ang pagtataka na iyon ay nauwi sa hinala. "Why are you so adamant about leaving the forest, Aris?"
Pinantayan ni Aris ang anyo ng kapatid. "It's none of your business, Caprionne."
"Hmm..." Capri narrowed his eyes in suspicion. Then, he turned his eyes to Lawrah, stared at her, before adding, "Well, fine. You stay here with Susie, but Lawrah's coming with me."
"Over my heavily bruised body. Lawrah goes wherever I go."
Lalong naghinala si Capri. Pero bago pa ito may masabi ay muling nagsalita si Aris,
"And why the hell are you so persistent about taking Lawrah?"
"Correction, I wanted to take both of you, but you're the one who refuses to leave this forest even though you know you won't be comfortable here. Knowing you, who wouldn't go to sleep without showering? I'm only concerned about you. And I'm worried about what you would do to..." Muling nalipat ang tingin ni Capri kay Lawrah na napakurap lang. Ilang sandali pa ay ibinalik nito ang tingin kay Aris. "I mean... Gusto mo bang hayaan kitang kainin ang lahat ng mga sinabi mo laban kay Lawrah?"
