JAKE:
I really don't know why, but secretly, deep in my heart, I still miss Cassie. After all, we have been through so much together. It really is hard to believe that she has a new boyfriend. Hal. If I had not been so wary of her in the war, our relationship would not have come to an end and we could still be together, even married. Though, that time, she did refuse me when I proposed to her.
Wait a second.
I should stop thinking about Cassie. Totally. I should just relax and enjoy myself, not think about my unhappy past. Relax. Enjoy. Yes. I must relax and enjoy myself and take a break.
No. I can't relax. I really can't. I MUST find Cassie and sort things out with her. Wherever she is. I MUST. We have to clear up all out doubts and every misunderstanding that we had of each other. The thing is, how am I supposed to find her? Sydney is not such a small town, you know. I have a feeling that Cassie still likes me. I mean, the way she looked at me… Who am I kidding? Why should she still like me? Erase all memories of her. Erase. Erase.

CASSIE:
Jake. Jake. Well, at least how know how he's getting along now. He's fine. Though I doubt he has a girlfriend. He must be lonely. Poor Jake. Why am I thinking of him? I don't know…
Actually, I DO know why I am still thinking about him after so many years. It is because I still like him. Love him, actually. Who am I kidding? I do not love Hal. Maybe just platonic 'like' Hal. That's all. Honestly. Hal and I are just… Not meant for each other. Though how am I supposed to break up with him? How can I? I will break his heart! Shatter it in fact. He will feel as if his heart was torn into a million little pieces and thrown into the air like confetti. Sigh. I am having a headache now. Jake or Hal? Jake or Hal?

JAKE:
I really want to meet Cassie. Where can I meet her? Oh yeah, I'm still on the beach, thinking deep sad thoughts about Cassie
--
CASSIE:
I have made up my mind. No one's stopping me.

JAKE:
Did you know what happened? Did you?? Well, Cassie just kissed me. She came back to the beach. Full details:
I was packing up to leave the beach in sadness and grief. Suddenly, Cassie came running up to me and you know the rest.
Okay, that was not such a great account of what happened. Does it matter?! We are probably going to marry and live happily ever after. Obviously. I am now grinning with joy. I feel light-headed. I have NEVER felt so happy, no, ECSTASTIC, in my whole ENTIRE life. We are seriously going to marry. Okay, I have not proposed to her for the second time yet, but it is obvious that we are getting married. There seems to be a silent mutual consent between us to getting married. Rejoice. Rejoice.

CASSIE:
I chose Jake.

N/A: Thereafter, they got married and had children. Obviously. As for Hal? Well, he and Cassie broke up and he is currently in New York, working on a top secret project. His heart was broken, of course. Whose wouldn't when their girlfriend broke up with them? However, he is probably okay now. Maybe he has even started dating.
N/A (again): I am sorry if you find the ending too abrupt. It is a bit rushed. I know.
