to catch his flight when he notices Emily and her boyfriend arguing, and fighting at the music band
in which they work together. Oliver is sitting at the airport, hearing music on his headphones,
and observes Emily. She looks at him back and witnesses him looking at her.
They both get on the same plane leaving for New York. The air hostess approaches Oliver and asks

She comes out of the bathroom and sits on her seat. A few moments later,
Oliver also comes out and sits on his seat. When they both arrive at their destination.
Oliver sees Emily sitting alone, he approaches her and introduces himself. He tells her his
name but she acts differently and says that she does not want to talk to him as it will ruin
their secret. He tells his name to her again but she mocks him for keep telling his name.
They both wait at the train station and waits for the train to arrive. Emily lights up her
cigarette and smokes. Oliver stands beside her and asks about what happened to her with
her boyfriend. He calls her boyfriend Bon Jovi. She informs him that his name is not Bon Jovi.
She is reluctant to talk to him but lets him know about her ex-boyfriend.
She shares that the guy he saw her with is her ex-boyfriend now and he plays guitar. They get
on the same train and sit together. While Emily minds her own business,
Oliver starts talking to himself thinking that she might talk too. He tells himself
that he is going to New York to meet his brother who studies in law school.
Emily smiles and questions him if he also wants to go to law school. He informs her that he has
just graduated but doesn't have a job. Emily asks him about his zodiac sign and he tells
her his sign is Cancer. Soon, Emily's destination arrives, she says bye to him and leaves the train.

her. Emily is surprised to see him, and she questions if he is stalking her. Meanwhile,
they have a chit chat and Emily's parents arrive. She throws the cigarette away.

greets him. Emily excuses her parents saying that she doesn't want to go to the museum.
Her father tells her that Christine took an off from work. She excuses them that Oliver
has test results coming today, and she has to go with him so her parents let her go.
She walks with Oliver and they have a little conversation. Oliver tells her that it was a
bit embarrassing for him because Emily made a foolish excuse. Emily asks why
he cares about her dad while he informs her that they might become a thing in the
future. Emily lets him know that he is not her type and they are never going to be a thing.
He informs her that he doesn't want a girlfriend anyways as he wants to get
success in life. He tells her that he wants to build his future by focusing on his career and
studies. He will get a job, a nice car, and has a bright future. He tells her that he
will be successful in the next six years and by then he expects to find his dream
girl. Emily looks at him and smiles, she stops, and Oliver looks at her while she
removes his muffler. She tells him that he is attractive enough to find a girl.
Later, they both go to a bar. They drink in the middle of the afternoon. Oliver pays for the
drinks and informs Emily that he has to owe him money after six years. Emily tells him she doesn't
believe in getting successful in six years, and that it can take more years. Oliver assures her,

later. Oliver's parents will give her his number and she can talk to his wife and pay him back.

Later, Emily is calling to several people seeing
the numbers from her diary. She suddenly comes across Oliver's parent's number,
which he gave to her in a bar. She picks up the phone and decides to call his parents.
She hesitates to call him first but she calls and his mother receives the call.
She asks her about Oliver and his mother gives the phone to Oliver. Emily asks him
if he remembers her and he tells her how could he not. While they both are talking his sister
keeps interrupting him on the call. It makes Emily laugh but she controls it.
She asks him if he would meet and have a coffee with her. He says yes and asks for her address.
Emily gets ready for Oliver to arrive at her house. Suddenly the doorbell
rings and she opens the door. She finds another man standing instead of Oliver,
he pretends to be Oliver. Emily is surprised and tells him that he is not Oliver. Oliver
comes out of the bushes and meets Emily. The man was his brother and he was just joking with her.
She invites Oliver inside her house. She looks at him and suddenly starts to kiss him. Oliver
desperately kisses her back and tries to take off her shirt. Emily interrupts their kiss and
asks what he would like to drink. She tells him that she is not the same desperate girl
she was three years ago. She does not sleep with anyone after her breakup.
Oliver starts to search for her pills in the kitchen cabinets and drawers. He informs her
that she might have forgotten to take her crazy pills, that's why she is acting so intensely.
At night, they go to a restaurant to have dinner. Emily asks him about staying at his
parent's house and just three years away till he gets rich. He informs her that he
is moving and has his diaper business. He is just visiting his parent's house.
Later, in the restaurant, Emily eats her food. She acts to get the choke, Oliver sees her doing
the act but enjoys his food and does not help her. She rests her head on the table and acts to faint.
When Oliver doesn't react she raises her head and agrees to tell him about Peter, her ex-boyfriend.
She informs him that he dumped her and that they met in an acting class she has been taking.
They both sit in their car and Emily questions him about his plan for New year's eve,
which was later that day. He informs her that he is not really into new year's eve
nor he celebrates it. Emily tells him that she knows a place, a party where they can go. They
excitedly get off the car and Emily takes out some clothes from the back of the car. He is
surprised to see that she has clothes in her car. She gives a shirt to him and asks him to change.
She goes behind a trash can and changes into a dress. While Oliver changes his shirt,
she looks at him being shirtless from behind. They both go to the party. She meets her friend,
Michelle, and her fiancé, and introduces them to Oliver. Oliver meets them and makes
an excuse to get a drink, while Emily is busy chatting with her friends. Suddenly,

and his girlfriend were dancing. The announcement begins, as there were only a few seconds left in
New Year. The clock strikes twelve and the New Year begins. Peter kisses his girlfriend while
Emily just stares at them. All of a sudden Oliver arrives and kisses her passionately.
Later, at night Oliver takes her to his place. She sees no furniture in his apartment and asks
about it. He informs her that he told her earlier he was moving. He reminds her of
his business in San Francisco. He further tells her that he will leave the next day.
Emily tells him that when she started liking him he is moving away. She looks at some of
the boxes and finds his camera. She clicks his pictures and keeps the camera in the box again.
She finds a frame in which Emily's picture was there which she clicked earlier with him in New
York. She shows the frame to him and he informs her that he liked the picture. He steps forward
to put the frame back in the box. He comes closer to Emily and she kisses him.
While they are kissing Emily excuses him, grabs her purse, and runs to the bathroom. Meanwhile,
Oliver prepares himself to finish what they have left off in between. He takes
a glass of wine and waits for her. After some time he calls out her name but she
does not respond. He goes to check in the restroom and there he finds

something when the woman arrives and questions him about leaving for Los Angeles. He talks to
the woman and tells her about Bridgeton. He speaks his heart out with her about how
he wants his business to be successful, but Bridgeton isn't happy with that. However, the

inside the house but he refuses. She tells him that she has to go look after the baby, which
she babysits for Michele. As Oliver is about to leave her place, she hugs him tight and he leaves.

person who would help her find Oliver's parent's house, and give her the address
by using his parent's phone number. She hurries and rushes to his parent's house.
On the other hand, Oliver is getting dressed in a suit for the big day.
