Hindi nakilala ni Greg ang Selene na nasa harapan niya. Pagkagulat at takot ang kanyang naramdaman. Matalim at nagbabanta ang tingin sa kanya ng dalagita. Makikita ang hinanakit sa mga mata nito. Iyon ay dahil hindi na siya nagparamdam dito simula ng malaman niyang buntis na ang kanyang asawa. Magiging ama na siya kaya kailangan niyang magising sa katotohanan. Hindi na niya pwedeng ipagpatuloy ang kabaliwang ito. Ngunit kung lalabas ang katotohanan ngayon, mawawala ang pamilyang pinapangarap niya. "Makinig ka Selene, nangako tayo sa isat-isa na magiging lihim ang tungkol sa atin." mahinahong wika ni Greg dito. Namumuo ang galit sa kanyang dibdib dahil sa sitwasyong pinasok niya.

Hindi siya inosenta at mas lalong hindi siya mabuting bata... Unti-unti niyang tinaas ang laylayan ng kanyang yellow dress, sinundan ni Greg ang kanyang mga kamay kahit nilalabanan nito iyon. Nang mahawakan niya ang samplot na tumatakip sa pinakamaselang parte niya. Dahan-dahan niya iyong binaba... She's a bad child, a very bad child...
