(distant dog barking)

(door hinge creaks)

(screaming)

What, again?

Yeah.

(panting)

Why don't you relax, sweetheart.

And go back to sleep, come on.

No, I can't.

My mother's coming back from San Francisco today.

I don't think I can deal with it.

Well, you have to face it.

You have to face it all.

KELLY: Valerie gave me this journal for Christmas.

I thought I'd start it for the New Year,

but I never got around to it.

It's kind of ironic, I guess.

Now that I have more time to write,

I don't really have that much to say.

I never thought I'd be this alone.

I mean, I know I'm not,

I have my friends and my family.

But I feel alone.

What do they say? "Be careful what you wish for,

it might come true."

When Brandon proposed to me,

and Dylan wanted to take me around the world,

I chose to be on my own.

Well, that's what I got.

Dylan's in London with Brenda,

and Brandon...

I know he cares for me,

but Brandon's in love with Tracy.

Okay, that's about it.

All we need is a segue

from the chancellor's presentation

to the good nights.

Maybe you could bring the chancellor over to the desk

and we could do it all in a three shot?

That's a good idea. Trace?

What?

Is that okay with you?

Yeah, just tell me what you want and I'll do it.

Fine, that's what I want.

Sounds like a great hundredth broadcast to me.

I wish we all shared your enthusiasm.

Okay, everybody, that's it.

Good luck tonight.

What was that all about?

What was that all about?

I don't know if you noticed, but I was

having a production meeting over here.

And I'd appreciate a little support.

Okay, well, maybe you can give me

some tips on how I'm supposed to act.

You know, I've never really been in a situation before

where my boyfriend's keeping

an engagement ring for somebody else.

You think I should have brought that up

at the production meeting?

Well, when were you going to bring it up?

Or was that, "don't worry, it doesn't

mean anything" all the explanation I was going to get?

Trace, (clears throat)

I knew that we were going to

have to talk about this.

I've been thinking about it all week.

Yeah, well, obviously, I'm just not as good

at keeping things in little compartments like you are.

I just thought it would be best

if we talked about it

after the show, that's all.

You didn't think it was important enough to tell me.

Maybe I shouldn't even

be there at all; that way you can control

both sides of the conversation like you always do anyway.

You know, Trace, if you don't want to do this, that's fine.

You have no idea how much I don't want to do this.

But if you mean the show,

don't worry about it.

I'll be there.

With bells on.

Your hair looks so good this color.

Thanks.

I just felt like I needed some kind of change.

So, are you going to go to Brandon's big night?

I don't know.

I'm supposed to see Cliff.

Well, aren't you afraid David might be there?

Yep.

It's just awkward, you know?

We're all friends and....

You know, everyone thinks of

David and me like we're one word.

Donnandavid, Davidandonna.

I just wish I could live my own life.

Well, maybe you should just live it more privately.

If David had wanted to apologize, he could've.

What's he gonna say?

I'm sorry you were seeing some other guy

while you were seeing me?

It was a misunderstanding, not a date.

Unlike tonight.

Steve, can I ask you a question?

That's what big brothers are for.

It's about a girl.

Oh, my specialty.

Her name is Katie.

I think she likes me.

Well, just because she's a poor judge of character doesn't mean

you should hold it against her.

Shut up, it took me a month

to get up the courage to ask her out.

I want to do something special.

(snaps fingers) Santa Monica Pier.

Once I took Clare there, we got stuck on top of

the Ferris wheel for hours, it was...

It's a good time.

Sounds great.

I'm just so nervous,

I'll probably blow it.

I'll tell you what, I got this thing

at the CUTV station tonight with Clare.

Should be done early.

What do you say we meet up?

Have a little double datskie?

That'd be totally cool.

You sure you don't mind?

That's what big brothers are for, right?

You know, usually I talk

to Austin about these things,

but his idea of a special night

is watching Topless Pizza Party 3.

You know I was in that. (doorbell chiming)

I had a small but pivotal role

as a pizza delivery boy.

Ivan Trotz is a very interesting filmmaker.

Hello, Steve.

Abby, hi, come in. Thanks.

You know, I'm not sure Valerie's here.

I just got home myself.

VAL: I'm here.

Hi, sweetheart.

Uh, I hope you don't mind a full house.

I've got my little brother staying with us.

The more, the merrier.

STEVE: Great, I'm gonna make sure he doesn't

eat us out of house and home.

Nice to see you again.

Well, I'm glad somebody feels that way.

Aren't you going to say something?

Well, after what I said last week,

I'm surprised you're here.

You must want the money really bad.

What I want is for us to behave

like mother and daughter.

Well, those are two things you're not going to get from me.

I'd hoped you'd changed your mind

about signing the papers for the second mortgage.

I didn't.

Anything else?

No. That about covers it.

I'll fly back to Buffalo tomorrow morning

and put the house up for sale.

Thank Steve for his offer,

but I think both you and I

would be more comfortable if I stayed in a hotel.

Well, it's nice to know

that you're not completely insensitive.

Valerie,

I'm trying to reach out to you.

Why do you keep pushing me away?

You're right.

I could do something for you.

I can drive you to your hotel.

No, thanks.

I'll find a cab.

(sighs)

(door opens)

(door shuts)

(sighs heavily)

I'm very proud to present this plaque

commemorating the 100th broadcast of the CUTV Newscast

to our News Director and Acting Station Manager,

Brandon Walsh.

Brandon, your hard work, your integrity

and your determination have made us very proud.

Here's to the next hundred broadcasts.

Thank you, sir.

I'd just like to say that the success of our broadcast

is due to the efforts of our crew

both on the air and off.

So, uh, if you'll just follow me...

I'd like to present this award to our staff.

And Tracy, since you're the only one wearing makeup,

maybe you would be good enough to accept it.

I'd be happy to.

Thank you very much.

Chancellor Arnold.

So, that's it from CUTV News.

100 broadcasts and counting.

From all of us here,

this is Brandon Walsh and Tracy Gaylian saying...

Just read the cue card, sir.

Hmm? The cue card.

Oh, oh, uh,

good night and good news.

Now let's party!

Not the part in parentheses.

What?

Oh! (applause)

DIRECTOR: And we're out.

Yay! Great show, Chancellor.

Would you like something to eat? Yeah, sure.

Thanks, Steve. I'll get you a plate.

Okay, thanks. I'll go with you, Cliff.

Well, see, no one seems upset that I'm not here with David.

I know, you're right.

I'm sorry.

What are you doing after this?

Uh, I don't know.

Do you want to come with us to the pier?

Yeah, sure. Actually, let's go.

After everything that's happened,

this place is kind of creepy to me.

Okay.

So, did you talk to your mother?

I couldn't.

I know, I was all ready to,

but once I got face-to-face to her,

I just wanted it to be over as quickly as possible.

Well, that's not what we talked about.

What are you, my shrink?

Val...

Tom, just give it a rest, okay?

Well, Kelly Taylor,

as I live and breathe.

Hey! You look great.

Thanks, so do you.

Thanks.

How are you?

Fine.

How are you?

Good, good.

Good, and Tracy?

Fine.

Good.

(snickering)

So... (clears throat)

great show.

Yeah.

Yeah, it, uh,

it was okay.

I hardly ever see you anymore.

I should, uh...

have you and Tracy over for a barbecue or something.

Yeah, yeah, that would be, uh...

that'd be good.

That'd be a lot of fun.

Absolutely.

Hey, Trace.

Kel just, uh, invited us over for dinner.

Yeah. You were great tonight.

Thanks.

I'm gonna go.

I'm not really in the mood for a party.

What are you talking about?

We were supposed to talk after the broadcast.

But obviously,

this conversation is more important to you.

Ooh. Did I, uh,

get in the middle of something here?

No, no, you didn't.

Anyway, I'm gonna go.

And here, you can have your precious plaque back.

I gave it to you. Well, you're

the one with all the integrity.

Isn't that what the chancellor said?

You know, if he's so virtuous,

why can't he tell the truth?

I guess it's hard

to be honest with other people if you can't

be honest with yourself.

You should go to her.

Yeah.

(sighs)

(calliope music playing)

Oh, yes!

Whoo!

So you up for a little more?

Yeah, I'm game if you are.

You know, thanks for coming with me tonight.

It really meant a lot.

Thanks for asking me.

I know it must have been pretty hard to do.

You know, could you just stop being perfect

maybe for, like, a minute there?

Um, I could try.

Nah, perfect works for me.

So how about the Ferris wheel?

Ferris wheel, let's go! Let's do it!

You know, Donna and Cliff

are spending a lot of time together, huh?

Yeah, I like him.

He's cool.

Yeah, but what about David?

What about David?

Donna can hang out with Cliff if she wants.

David's with Chloe all the time.

That's different, Clare.

That is such a double standard.

What're you saying,

guys can do whatever they want, girls can't?

Yeah. In case you haven't heard,

it's still the 20th century.

MAN: Muscle! Thank you.

Mm!

(mechanical whirring)

Nice try, honey.

Here, honey.

So were you scared?

Not with you.

Is this okay?

Yeah. Don't you want to kiss me?

More than anything.

Way to go, Clare.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, way to go, Ryan.

CLARE: Aw, that's cute.

STEVE: Cute? Nothing.

That's the Sanders touch.

Yeah, well, let's just hope he keeps the Sanders touch

where she wants it to. DONNA: Hey,

S and C, we're gonna go get dinner.

You guys want to come? There's an all-you-can-eat

special at Hot Dog on a Stick. Mmm.

It's our favorite.

Uh, we....

Yeah, no thanks, guys. We gotta go.

I think we'll pass. DONNA: Oh, right,

I get it. Bye-bye.

See you later.

Go, Ryan. Bye, guys.

Hey.

Hey, uh, Steve, can I, uh, talk to you

for a sec? Yeah, sure,

why don't we catch up to you guys in a second?

Okay, we'll meet you in the car. Let's go.

Dude...

she is fine.

Ah. Thanks.

I think so, too.

So what's the problem?

You need some cash?

Steve, got any condoms?

(laughing): Oh!

You gotta be kidding me?!

Oh, this is a good day!

This is a proud moment for me!

Well, I need to borrow a condom.

Rule number 22.

You don't borrow condoms-- nobody wants it back.

Well, her parents are going out of town,

and she invited me over to her house.

That means we're going to be completely alone.

Ooh, tonight?

Tomorrow.

But I need to be ready.

Oh, very good, grasshopper.

You know, Trace, I don't know

how we're supposed to get through this

if you won't talk to me.

Is that what you want to do?

Get through this? How many more

times do I have to tell you?

I wasn't keeping the ring

because I'm waiting for Kelly to come back.

Then why are you keeping it?

I don't know.

You know, maybe you'd better think about it

for once in your life.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means you can't let somebody

think you love them if you don't.

I know that. But why can't you realize

you're just upset because you're embarrassed?

I'm upset because you're cheating on me!

That's ridiculous.

Just tell me if you love her.

Trace.... It's a simple question.

I wish I had a simple answer.

(sighs)

Well, at least you had the decency not to lie to me.

Good-bye, Brandon.

Good-bye.

(door slamming)

(calliope music playing)

So, you having fun?

Do you need to ask?

Okay, so I'm insecure.

Don't be.

I had fun tonight.

Good.

Then let's have some more.

It's David, isn't it?

We just... we go back so far,

I don't want to hurt him.

So you can hurt me? No,

of course not. I...

I don't want to hurt anybody.

I just don't know

if I should be playing around with you.

This isn't a game to me, Donna.

I'm not playing around.

(playing gentle tune)

Did you talk to her?

No.

No, she must still be out with fireman Cliff.

(sighs)

You know, it's amazing

how you can know someone so little

and hate him so much.

Well, I don't see what she sees in him.

I mean, he certainly doesn't do it for me.

That's pretty. Is it new?

Just something I'm playing with.

I think it's gonna be a love song.

It's not sad enough.

This is really getting to you, isn't it?

I just don't get it.

I mean, it's not like I did anything to make her mad,

but he...

he comes into town, and she's all over him.

David, if Donna's cheating on you,

maybe you should just forget her.

No, it's not like that.

She's not sleeping with him, believe me.

Why?

Because she told you?

No.

She's a virgin.

You're kidding me. No.

It's pretty important to her.

How do you feel about it?

I love her.

I respect her wishes.

Like she respects you by going out with Cliff?

Come on, that's not fair.

Maybe not.

But it's true.

Having a bad dream, honey?

Yes, Daddy.

Do you want me to tell you a story?

Yes, Daddy.

Once upon a time there was a little girl

who loved her daddy so much,

she made her daddy do all kinds of terrible things.

Where are you going?

I gotta deal with this.

(knocking on door)

I gotta talk to you.

Come in.

You won't speak to me,

now it has to be in the middle of the night?

Well, you were always such a sound sleeper.

What do you mean?

You must have been,

to be able to sleep through the night

while your husband was coming into my room.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about rape, Mother.

Incest. Child abuse.

Our family, your husband, your daughter.

Does that ring any bells?

You're accusing your father of...

How dare you! That's right.

Defend him in the grave.

It's not like you have to care about me at all.

I was married to him for 20 years!

I think I knew him better than anyone.

I guess you didn't know him

as well as you thought.

Your father had his faults,

but he was a good man.

Victor Malone was a vicious son of a bitch,

and if you didn't know it, you were blind.

You were always wild.

Always in trouble.

You know what?

As much as I hated him,

you were worse than he was.

You could have stopped it.

You could have stopped him

coming into my room....

(gasps)

Go to hell!

(gasps)

I, I've been in hell.

Since I was 11 years old.

(door slamming)

KELLY: You always hear this stuff about fate.

Destiny.

But what if you only get a certain number of chances

for fate to take its course?

I mean,

if Brandon and I are meant to be together,

why aren't we together?

Here you go.

Hmm.

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

How was your date?

The date? Oh.

The date was terrific, the date was awful.

It was a little bit of everything.

I think you need to elaborate.

Yeah. Uh...

I don't know, it just...

seems so easy with Cliff.

And with David,

everything's just always difficult.

Hmm.

Do you still love David?

Yeah.

But if I do, why do I have all these feelings for Cliff?

(chuckling): And I do have all these feelings for Cliff.

(chuckles)

Well, aside from the fact

that he's gorgeous, maybe you're just mad at David

because he wasn't there for you.

Hmm.

Go on, Dr. Taylor.

No, this is very familiar territory for me.

It's the Emily Valentine syndrome.

Brandon was with her the night I was in the fire.

That's right.

Just like David was with Chloe when I was taken hostage.

Exactly.

Have you forgiven him for that?

I don't know.

Well, did you talk to him last night?

'Cause he doesn't look very happy.

Yeah, I know.

I've been thinking about him a lot.

Thinking that maybe you want to get back together with him?

It doesn't matter what I think.

I'm not going to do anything about it.

Well, that's stupid.

If you still love him,

you have to tell him.

I have told him.

After Colin, after Susan.

He knows how I feel.

If he wants to do anything about it... he will.

Well, I still think you should talk to him.

Like you're going to talk to David?

Hmm.

(tapping)

What?

What's the matter, Clare?

Talk to me, you're killing me here.

Do you know what the expression

"in loco parentis" means?

Isn't that from the Kama Sutra?

(sighs)

No, it means if you're going

to be responsible as Ryan's parent,

you have to deal with this situation.

Okay? What situation?

He's going to have sex.

It's a good thing.

You don't just hand a condom to a teenager

and say, "Go out and play."

Since when did you become Dr. Ruth?

I seem to recall when you were a teenager,

you... you handcuffed yourself

to Brandon's bed.

Am I right? Well, obviously,

I needed advice back then.

I know what you needed.

Ah, good morning.

CLARE: Morning.

So... tonight's the big night, huh?

Oh, God.

You told her?

Ryan, um,

how much do you know about sex?

And I don't mean from Penthouse Forum, 'cause...

most women don't really throw themselves

on strange men in the hot, steamy laundry room.

Isn't that a shame? I am so embarrassed.

STEVE: Yeah, join the club.

Clare, I told you I'd talk to Ry

after breakfast.

Okay.

Let's eat.

You look like you had a rugged night.

Yeah, I didn't get much sleep.

(sighs)

Last night, I, uh...

I lost something important to me

because I couldn't let go of the past.

You mean Kelly.

(sighs)

She still cares for you.

Nat, I asked the woman to marry me.

She knows how I feel.

If she wanted things to be different, she'd say something.

What are you going to do? Something

I should have done a long time ago.

Talk to Kel?

No.

Return the ring.

(sighs)

(door opens, then closes)

Hi, Tom.

Mrs. Malone.

Valerie's around here somewhere.

I'll go get her. Actually,

I wanted to talk to you for a minute. Is that okay?

Sure.

Can I get you some coffee or anything?

No, thank you.

I need your help with Valerie.

I, uh...

She...

You know what?

Never mind.

I can't do this.

I'm sorry to have wasted your time.

I know.

If it makes it any easier for you,

I knew what was happening.

(sighs)

I still can't believe it,

but I guess I have to.

Yeah, you do.

At least now I know

why she hated me all this time.

But you have to believe me.

I didn't know what was happening.

I swear to God I didn't know.

But you did? Yeah,

Valerie told me what was going on.

Why didn't she tell me?

Well, maybe I was afraid

I'd get the same reception as I got last night, Mother.

Valerie.

Or that I thought it was my own fault.

How can you say that?

You know, when it happened the first time,

I was so scared that I, I didn't tell anybody about it.

And then I didn't tell anybody about it

and it happened again and I thought I'd get into trouble.

Besides, he told me you said I had to.

Tom... would you leave us alone, please?

No.

He was there for me when I needed him,

and I need him now. What do you mean

he was there for you?

When Valerie told me what was going on,

I wanted to kill the son of a bitch,

but I didn't... on one condition.

Tom said if I didn't go to the police, that he would.

But you didn't.

I told Daddy.

I said if he didn't leave

or if he didn't get some help,

that I was going to go to the police.

He shot himself that night.

Oh, my God.

And that's not all I feel guilty about.

I'm glad he did it.

That's what I feel guilty about.

I'm glad the bastard's dead.

(sobbing)

(doorbell chimes)

Hi.

Uh, I, I wasn't expecting anyone.

I'm sorry.

I should have called. No,

no, that's okay.

Come on in.

Look, Tracy, if this is about last night...

Brandon and I broke up last night.

Wow.

I'm sorry.

Are you?

Yes.

I'm sorry.

I didn't mean it to s-- I...

Do you know why we broke up?

No, I don't.

I found your engagement ring.

He never got rid of it.

Did you know that he still had it?

(sighs)

Uh... no, I-I didn't know that.

(sighs)

This is so hard.

(sighs)

Tracy, I'm really sorry.

Yeah, that's just what he said.

Look, Kelly, I came here to do the noble thing--

to tell you that I'd bow out gracefully

and let the royal couple assume their rightful place--

but I can't do it.

You love him, don't you?

Do you?

Yes.

So do I.

This isn't fair.

You know, you turned him down.

You broke up with him.

But you never let him go.

Love is supposed to make people happy, Kelly.

Are you happy?

Brandon and I could be happy together.

I know we could.

But you have to make up your mind.

Once and for all.

(sighs)

Okay.

(clears throat)

Ryan, I've been meaning to talk to you about, uh...

Sex with Katie? Sex.

Katie sex.

And, um...

It's like this.

You got the egg...

Steve, Steve.

I already know that part.

Good. Look, what I don't know

is why I'm so nervous.

Well, how do you feel about her?

Do you love her?

I don't know.

I mean, I like her, but we've only been out one time.

Hmm.

Well, uh,

maybe you owe it to her to, uh...

Wait?

Wait. Wait?

Yeah.

You mean that's okay?

All the guys I know are always in this big hurry.

(doorbell chimes) (laughs)

Do you, uh, want me to get that?

No. I think we're done.

Yeah, wait.

Uh, thanks a lot, Steve.

Oh, hey, Kel.

Hey, is Brandon here?

No, but he'll be back later.

Do you know where he went?

Yeah, but I really can't say.

Look, Steve, I know about the ring.

Tracy told me.

Yeah, Brandon told me, too.

So, if you know where he is, I could really use your help.

Well, he, uh, he went to return it.

Do you know where?

Westwood,

some German jewelry store.

Yeah, I'll find it, thanks.

You'd better hurry.

DAVID: You did what?

Martin Burns, Luther Vandross's manager?

I sent him a copy of my demo tape,

and, uh, he wants us to go to New York.

No, no, I can't go to New York.

Oh, that's right.

You have to stay here so that Donna can make a fool of you.

I thought we agreed to take it slow.

Why didn't you wait?

Look, David,

I'm tired of taking things slow.

Come on. We're a team.

We could be big.

Stop, all right?

What's the big deal?

She can't give you what you want, and I can.

I don't think you know the first thing about what I want.

Okay.

Fine. I guess I'll just go to New York by myself.

Yeah, you do that.

Just get dressed and go, all right?

If that's what you want.

(knocking)

DONNA: David, are you home?

Oops.

Go in the bedroom, please.

Why, did you change your mind?

Just do it.

(sighs)

Hey. Hi.

Um, I just came to say

that I think we should talk about everything.

Yeah. Yeah, I think we should, too.

Okay. Um, can I come in?

CHLOE: David?

She's here?

Well, we-we were working.

Oh.

Hi, Donna.

(sighs)

I knew this was a mistake.

Donna, wait. DONNA: No.

David, forget it.

Valerie, come in.

I was just packing.

Listen, Mother, uh...

(sighs)

...I've changed my mind, huh?

I'll sign the papers.

Why?

He's dead. I...

I should let the past die with him.

Yeah, we all should.

I'm gonna sell the house.

I could never live there.

(voice breaking): I'm glad.

(sighs)

Listen, there's something else I need to tell you.

Oh, God, Valerie.

(sniffles) I don't know if I can take any more.

I believe you.

I believe that you didn't know.

But I should have.

(sighs)

(crying)

Oh.

I'll never forgive myself for what happened to you.

(sighs)

(crying)

Neither will I.

(crying)

FREUDENBERG: Back again?

Pardon me?

I don't forget.

A couple of years ago, you came in here.

You bought a ring.

Then last year, you came in again.

You wanted to return it.

That's right.

How'd you remember that?

That is my business.

You couldn't return the ring,

because you still loved the girl.

I think I'm ready now, sir.

Okay.

Do you want cash, or

maybe an exchange?

Take a look in the case.

Maybe for the other girl.

I don't think there is another girl.

Don't tell me my business.

In love, not in love.

Halfway between the two.

I've seen it before.

How do you know so much?

It is not magic.

35 years of making love

into metal, you get a feeling for such things.

Hmm?

Do you see something you like?

Yeah. Yeah.

The, uh...

The bracelet.

Yes, the bracelet is lovely.

So,

are you ready to exchange your past for your future?

No.

I can't do it

until I know it's really over between us.

Okay.

Then I will hold on to this

for you until you make up your mind.

Thanks.

She must be

some girl, this one in your past.

You do know your business, Mr. Freudenberg.

What a strange young man.

(sighs)

Kelly?

(sighs)

Brandon.

What are you doing here?

I, uh...

Tracy told me about the ring.

Really?

Yeah.

She shouldn't have done that.

Maybe not, but she did.

What are you doing here?

I, uh...

I came to return the ring.

Good.

Good? Good

that, that you, uh, returned it.

Good.

That's what I came to talk to you about.

You came to talk to me about returning the ring?

Yeah, if that's what you want to do, you-you should.

(laughs)

We shouldn't...

We can't.

Not anymore.

It's just too much.

Yeah.

Yeah, it's, uh...

It's too much.

VALERIE: Hey.

You okay?

Much better than I thought.

(sighs)

So, where's Abby?

I thought we could have, uh, dinner together or something.

She's on her way to the airport.

Oh.

Valerie, um...

No, I just....

I just need that part of my life done and over with.

I never want to think about it again.

Does that mean me, too?

I love you so much.

I've always loved you.

You know that.

It's just, every time I look in your eyes,

I can't help but see him

coming into my bedroom and...

feeling him touching me...

seeing him dead on the bathroom floor.

Tom, it's just all mixed up, you know.

Me, you, my mother, him.

It's just too much.

Um...

Maybe you need some time to...

sort it all out.

I don't know what I need.

I just...

I know this isn't the time.

Yeah, well, I'm not used

to staying this long in one place, anyway, so...

It's for the best.

For now, and then, may...

maybe later...

I don't know.

Well, I'm glad you, uh, worked things out.

I couldn't have done it without you.

Well, at least I'm good for something, right?

(sighs)

How about a drink for the road?

Sounds good.

(sniffles)

(knock on door)

You told Kelly.

(sighs)

I'm sorry. I had to.

Not as sorry as I am.

I returned the ring.

You did?

Yeah.

I saw this.

Thought you might like it.

What is it?

Open it.

(paper tearing)

Oh.

(seagulls calling)

KELLY: I bought a gift today

for someone I love.

Maybe I paid too much

for something no one will ever see, but

I didn't want anyone else to have it.
