That night, Walt, Roy, and Jessica came up with a plan to sneak out while everyone else was asleep.
So, she dressed in black so no one would see her and the three sneaked out.
She ran to the shack and knocked on the door.
It opened.
"Jessica." Jose said.
She ran into his arms.
He held her close.
"I'm so sorry." She said, weepingly.
"It is not your fault, minha rosa." He said.
"It would have been better if we never met and none of this would have happened." She looked away.
"Jessica, look at me." He faced her towards him. "If I had a choice between these two things, I'd rather die tomorrow than live my entire life without knowing you were in the world." He said.
She smiled a little.
Jose-If I never knew you
If I never felt this love
I would have no inkling of
How precious life can be
If I never held you
I would never have a clue
How at last I'd find in you
The missing part of me
In this world so full of fear
Full of rage and lies
I can see the truth so clear
In your eyes
So dry your eyes
And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Lost forever
If I never knew you
Jessica-I thought our love would be so beautiful
Somehow we'd make the whole world bright
I never knew that fear and hate could be so strong
All they'd leave us were these whispers in the night
But still my heart is saying we were right
For if I never knew you
Jose-There's no moment I regret
Jessica-If I never knew this love
Jose-Since the moment that we met
Jessica-I would have no inkling of
Jose-If our time has gone too fast
Jessica-How precious life can be...
Jose-I've lived at last...
Jose-And I'm so grateful to you
I'd have lived my whole life through
Empty as the sky
Jessica-Never knowing why
Both-Lost forever
If I never knew you.
"Jessica. We have to go." Roy said.
"Okay." She said.
She hugged Jose.
"I wish I didn't have to leave you." She said.
"You never will. No matter what happens, I'll always be with you forever." Jose said.
He kissed her.
She left.
He watched her as she ran.
He took the necklace out of his pocket and held it close to his heart.
"I will never let you go." He said.
