Nag-suggest lang naman si Strike sa best friend niyang si Kraige na piliin si Cleo---ang one true love nito--- kesa pakasalan ang fiancee nito na alam niyang hindi talaga nito mahal. Siya rin ang mastermind sa planong binuo ng squad nila para magkatuluyan sina Kraige at Cleo. And yes, proud at masaya siya na naging successful ang plano nila. Pero ang masama, na-love at first sight siya kay CeeCee--- ang ex-fiancee ni Kraige na iniwan nito dahil sa udyok niya. Nakita niya kung ga'no ka-devastated si CeeCee pero nakita rin niya kung ga'no ito katatag at kabait sa kabila ng heartbreak na pinagdadaanan nito... dahil sa kanya. He fell madly in love with CeeCee. Pero pa'no niya aaminin dito na siya ang dahilan kung bakit ito iniwan ni Kraige? He doesn't want to lose CeeCee, dammit.

This time, he wanted her to be a permanent part of his life. Ang problema, galit na galit sa kanya si Allen at wala itong balak na magpatawad.

I can tell when people are lying. Gaya ng isang lie detector machine, nakakaramdam ako ng munting boltahe ng kuryente na dumadaloy sa katawan ko sa tuwing nagsisinungaling sa'kin ang taong kausap ko. At kapag hinawakan ko naman ang kamay ng taong nagsisinungaling sa'kin, nababasa ko ang isipan niya sa sa loob ng sampung segundo. I can't trust anyone in this world. Not even my own family. Para hindi na uli ako maloko o ma-traidor, gaya ng nangyari noong hindi pa ko nagtitiwala sa abilidad ko. Natagalan, oo. Pero nasanay din naman ako sa kakaiba kong mundo... ... hanggang sa nakilala ko siya. Ang nag-iisang tao na hindi ko maramdaman kung nagsisinungaling ba o hindi. Just who is this guy?
