Skyler Arakawa: (Excited) They're beautiful Mom!
Skyler and Emily kneel down together, looking at the flowers, Emily's hands gently and carefully, guide Skyler's small fingers as he learns to care for the garden
Emily Inochi Tarinai: (Whispering) You know Skyler, each rose tells a story just like every person. So what story do you think this one has?
Skyler Arakawa: (Thinking) I think it's a story of love
Emily Inochi Tarinai: You're right Skyler it has the story of our love
As they are sharing a heartwarming moment the flower that Emily is holding opens up with a sharp knife and launches itself toward Emily's neck she dies as Skyler watches her covered in blood, something pulls Skyler back, and time stops

Jason Miller: Ah check out this chick, bitch thinks she can stop me
Moon Chaeyoung: Did you just call me a bitch?
Jason Miller: Yep, and the conversation is ends here!

Skyler Arakawa: (Holds Jason's hands) It's not a good thing to hit a woman, back off
The bullies turn to face Skyler, momentarily taken a step back by his courage
Jason Miller: (Smirking) What's this? Skyler wants to play the hero?

The End Of Chapter 04...
Poem: In Skyler's garden, roses bloom, Stories whispered in their perfume. Mother's love, a tender thread, In petals rich, her spirit spread. Yet shadows loom, nightmares unfold, A garden once bright, now dark and cold.
Quote: Each rose tells a story, just like every person. What story do you think this one has?
