Siya’y isang mahirap na babaeng lumaking nakadepende ang kanyang buhay sa iba. Napilitang maging isang panakipbutas sa krimen at piniling ipagpalit ang kalayaan na nagresulta sa kanyang pagkabuntis. Siya naman ay ang pinakatanyag na binata na sagana sa kayaman at kapangyarihan. Kumbinsido siyang isa siyang anak ng kasamaan na napalilibutan ng kasakiman at panlilinlang. Hindi siya nito magawang mapainit kaya naman mas pinili niyang umalis sa tabi nito. Galit na galit niyang sinumpa na gagawin niya ang lahat upang mahanap siya saan mang lupalop ng mundo ito naroon. Alam ng buong lungsod ang kanyang kapalarang tila mauupos sa ilang milyong piraso. Nagmamakaawa niyang tinanong, “Umalis ako sa relasyong ito nang walang kinuhang kahit ano, bakit hindi mo pa ako pakawalan?” Sinagot sya nito na may pagmamalaki, “Ninakaw mo ang puso ko at iniluwal ang aking anak, ngayon pipiliin mong umalis?”

“I came back to New York to get married to her.” Wesley reaches into his pocket and brings out a card.  “This is me being generous. Take this, it has a hundred thousand dollars in it, go back to the house and park your stuff.  I'll tell everyone you left because things got too hard for you.” **** Aiden, in the day, is the random guy will you see going around the house with the napkin, humming a silly tone under his breath as he cleans the furniture, rush to the kitchen to check what he is cooking.  And of course, he's the guy his wife's family comes to let out their frustration on after the day's work. The guy that can in one word be compelled to do anything because he looks “gullible”.  But… At night when all are gone to bed… Aiden… Is the guy in the dimly lit bar, issuing out commands to owners of big consortiums of New York.  And…no one—no fucking person— has the wits to say no to what he has to say.
