"Anna, I can't. You know I only love Karin," said Edwin.
"I know," said Anna with a smile.
"I'll keep waiting."
"Anna...."
"Just as you waited for Karin, I will also wait for you. If you wait until someone officially owns Karin, I will do the same for you."
Edwin just nodded. His love for Karin may have been in vain, but he still couldn't forget her. Just like Anna's love for him, he may never be able to reciprocate her feelings, but just like him, Anna has not easy to forgotten her love to him.

Matthew walked in the next morning and handed a bowl of soup to Karin who was also awake.
"How are you now?" Matthew asked, looking at the girl who was eating the soup.
"I feel like hitting someone, but you're the only one in front of me. Do you want me to hit you?"
Matthew laughed at that. He was relieved that Karin was able to joke around, which meant that the girl was fine.
