Isang linggo ng nakalabas si Devon ng hospital at tulad ng inaasahan magaling na ito pero sa loob ni Devon isang malaking sugat ang gusto niya maghilom kaagad di niya alam kung bakit sobrang sakit ng nararamdaman niya..tulad ng ilang gabi mula nang gumising siya tuwing nag-iisa siya sa loob ng kaniyang kwarto lihim siyang umiiyak pero lingid sa kaalaman niya alam yun ng kuya Bret niya at sa gabing ito di na ito nakatiis sa nakikitang paghihirap ng bunsong kapatid pumasok ito ng kwarto at niyakap ang kapatid para dun manlang maibsan ang sakit na nararamdaman..at dahil sa ginawa ng kapatid bigla itong napahagulgol dahil nakaramdam ang puso niya ng kakampi..
Devon: kuya i'm so sorry ( humahagulgol nitong sabi)
Bret: its ok baby what's the sorry all about? (takang tanong sabay alo sa kapatid na nahihirapan sa kung anumang bumabagabag sa puso nito)
Devon: I lied to every body kuya...I'm sorry.. I do remember everything and I thought that if i'd tried to forget every memories before the incidents things and pain will heal the sooner but I'm wrong...the worst thing is it becomes more painful as time passes by (patuloy nitong saad habang umiiyak sa bisig ng kapatid)
Bret: hush baby its ok...I understand...but what's with the Pain?( alam niyang nahihirapan ang kapatid at gusto niyang mailabas nito ang anuman para makapagsimula ito ng panibagong bukas)
Devon: I was terribly hurt by your bestfriend..i didn't know he wasn't a kuya to me all along..what hurts me was his declaration that I'm just a little sister to him...there i realized that i like him no i love him kuya..i love your bestfriend..(patuloy na iyak nito ..alam niya na kakampi niya ang kaniyang kapatid at makakaintindi ito sa kaniya anuman sitwasyon meron siya)
Bret: Im sorry for what had James did baby...James is a nice man..but he became different when he found out that his 1st love and so called fiance found another love and canceled the wedding they've longed prepared..he became devastated he even made a liquor his bestfriend instead of people loving him so i came to Australia to visit him and found out what had happened I helped him regained his old self..he never detested you baby just because he pushed you away...just remember he won't hurt you and your still young you've just turned 18.. forgive him baby ok..give your self a chance to be happy with Ivan( patuloy na kwento nito)
Devon: what? what about Ivan Kuya(natigil sa pag-iyak dahil sa pagbanggit ng pangalan ni Ivan)he didn't even visit me when I was at the hospital..I heard it from my friend's convo ...(pouting lips)
Bret: yeah Ivan.. aren't you two get along well? and about James not visiting you thats not true he always does..he was also one of your blood donor..(oh damn that Jaime ...bulong nito sa sarili dahil sa selos nagisip ito ng masama hmmm he's really inlove with my sister..and my baby sister is already a lady..natawa nalang ito sa nadiskubre...my poor baby if you only knew how much nervous you gave to my best friend and how many sleepless nights that damn man hindi man lang pumalag nung suntukin ko bulong nito sa sarili na natatawa talga...but i'm sorry i'm not the one who will break whatever it is that my best friend's felt towards you sabay tingin sa kisami ng kwarto ni Devon if you only knew baby if you only know...  )

Bret: I don't know baby in time you will know( sabay halik sa pisngi ng kapatid at nagpaalam na para makapagpahinga..
Devon: kuya....( wala na kasi iniwan na siyang lubusan ng kapatid na nagtataka..kung bakit ikinwento ang tungkol sa nakaraan ni James at may in time pang nalalaman haiss si kuya talaga..patuloy nitong inisip ang nangyari bago ang insidente..that brute really kissed me rudely yet it taste so sweet kahit pa paraan lang nito yun para lumayo na siya dito..di niya alam kung panu haharapin si James pagnagkita sila..kahit sinaktan siya nito isa naman ito sa nag-alay ng dugo sa kaniya ng mangailangan siya...naipangako ni Devon sa sarili na balang araw magiging dalaga din siya ng lubusan at matitipuhan din siya nito....
