Hinatid ni Jane si Ambers sa airport, ito na kasi ang araw ng pag-alis ng bestfriend niya papuntang States. Nauna na ang pamilya ni Ambers sa loob para magcheck-in at iniwan muna silang dalawa para mabigyan sila ng time na makapagusap at makapagpaalam ng maayos, "Well, I guess this it," malungkot na pahayag ni Ambers.
"Basta always email me ha...And be a good girl doon. Stay away sa mga gimmicks until you find your new set of friends there and pag-familiar ka na sa area mo. Tsaka, try to quit smoking na rin," bilin ni Jane.
"Yes, Lola, I will try to do those for you. Basta promise me ha, you'll buy me Eraserheads stuff and you'll send it to me. And don't forget to tell Ely Buendia to wait for me," mangiyak-ngiyak na bilin ni Ambers, "You'll be okay, right? It's actually you that I am concerned of. I still hope na maayos n'yo pa din. Because I know you love her and she makes you happy. Pero if hindi na talaga pwede, sana maging okay ka na. I hope you'll move on. And I wish my bestfriend to find the perfect person, babae man siya o lalaki. I just want you to be happy because I love you," nakangiting dagdag ni Ambers.
Hindi napigil ni Jane ang pag-iyak at niyakap ang bestfriend niya ng mahigpit, "I love you to pieces. Ingat ka lagi doon ha...And promise me you'll keep in touch."
"Of course I will. Paano I have to go in. Baka hihintay na din ako nina Mommy." Tumango si Jane at muling nagyakapan ang magbestfriend. Naglakad na si Ambers papasok ng check-in area at pinanood siya ni Jane hanggang sa maglaho ito sa paningin dahil sa kapal ng tao sa airport.
Paalis na sana si Jane nang may narinig siyang boses, "Janey, wait up!" Si Ambers, humahangos pabalik sa kanya, "Grabe, I almost forgot to give you this." Inabot ni Ambers ang Tamagotchi. "Naiwan mo 'yan sa paperbag ko the day we bought it. Ang tagal ko na sanang gustong ibigay sa'yo 'yan kaso I thought returning it would just make you feel worst."
Kinuha ni Jane ang Tamagotchi at saglit na tinignan ito mula sa kanyang kamay, "No, it's okay. Thank you again," at niyakap muli ni Jane ang kaibigan. Mabilis na nagpaalam muli si Ambers.
Bumalik sa kotse si Jane at muling tinignan ang Tamagotchi. She closed her eyes for a moment and made a deep sigh, "Do you ever think of me?—Of us? Where are you, Marsha?"
