I tried to stop crying but its like a tap that have open and couldn’t stop. So I nod my head slightly.

"Come on, we haven’t got all day!" Another officer shouts.

Shane gives her a death glare before giving me last chaste kiss. "I love you." I take my necklace off and put it around hers for luck.

"I love you too." Then she got taken away. I tried to hold on to her hands but they are too strong and the scene just broke my heart…

Bette comes over and sits me down at her office.

"Are you ok? I got you some coffee." She hands me a mug.

"I don’t want anything from you!" I raised my voice unknowingly.

"Come on, I don’t feel good doing this to you too! I told you she is no good!"

I just stare at her desk blankly, not knowing how to react. Girlfriend got arrested by one of my best friends! Something is nagging in my mind.

"Did you follow me?" I don’t want to know.

Paused… "Yes we did. I had a feeling that she would contact you sooner or later." She confesses.

"Shane was right. You used me." I accuse her.

"I am just doing my job, Carmen. Please understand my situation." Bette pleads.

My anger is rising quickly to my head. My chest is heaving up and down rapidly.

"Bette, Shane’s lawyer is here to bail her." An officer informs Bette.

"That’s quick." I mutter.

"She must have known that I was following you." Bette says, frowning.

It dawns on me that Shane has always known that I am her weakest link, but why did she still want to see me? She knew I was being follow and yet… There is only one answer. She must be crazy, remembering Alice comments on her plan, it’s suicidal. I don’t want to be part of her suicidal plan.

Bette is now busy sorting the paper work with her lawyer. I picked up a pen and write a few lines on the paper, folding it and stuffing it roughly into an envelope.

"Bette, please pass this to Shane when she is done here." I hand her the unsealed envelope.

"Aren’t you gonna wait for her?" She asks in a shocked tone.
