1EPILOGUE

It was three in the afternoon. Krisha opened her eyes to what seemed to her was the most blinding ray of sunlight she have had. Her eyes were heavy. She could not remember what time she had fallen asleep–she does not even remember falling asleep. Her memory was blurred. It took a while before this feeling of sadness and frustration crept up into her again. An image of Joe flashed in her head for a brief moment. She closed her eyes, trying to make the image go away. Her eyes hurt. They felt as if it had cried far too much already, that it seemed som impossible to still have tears flow.

She opened her eyes again. She lay perfectly still on her bed, while her mind raced into a number of different thoughts. She looked at the window. The afternoon sunlight was going through the Venetian blinds. She managed to force a weak smile into her lips. It is a new day. I have moved on. She told herself a couple of times, as if saying it repeatedly would make it more convincing and true.

Joe was slumped against a black leather couch. Lips, parted, tongue probing a warm, moist mouth. His hands wandered on the girl's back. All this, he did mechanically. He has done it so many times before with her that it did not take much of his attention to be doing it. She broke away from him for a moment, catching her breath.

"What's my name?" she asked in her little teasing voice.

He looked at her briefly, confused with the question the said simply, "Alex."

"That's right. It's Alex. You are with me, now. So I don't want yoinking about anything or anyone else." she added with a smirk.

"I'm not thinking about–" he started but was cut short.

"I did not say you were. I'm just saying. You made your choice, stick with it."

A/N1: you might be thinking, who the hck is alex? Well, look back into the early chapters, maybe you'd come across the name. :P and remembering where and how I mentioned her name before is a hint to the explanation of it all and how I plan to play with the sequel. Unfortunately, I wont be starting the sequel until around this weekend. College is hectic :

A/N: Don't hate me. It has to be ended like that, else there wouldn't be much point in having a sequel. So now, the question is, will they still meet in the sequel? Or do I just divulge Joe's "new girl", go on with their story and forget about Krisha's character completely who ends up with who then? Who knows...there are questions im trying to weave into an answer in my head right know..so truthfully, I don't have the secont installation of this story made up in my head yet. It's still a jumbled mush of ideas. :P so until then,,, any suggestions? Comments? Hate mails? Haha. They're all welcome, really :)
