Chastity was slowly learning to find her way around Orlando. She was at the grocery store right now. Since Niama had absolutely NO food in her house, Chastity had decided to go shopping.

At the store, Chastity ran into Jennifer.

"Hey Jen," she said.

"Oh, hi Chastity."

Chastity noticed Jennifer was crying, again. "Jen, what's wrong? It's not Howie again... is it?"

She nodded her head, "He called me earlier and said he had met some girl, and he thinks he's in love, and he doesn't want to see me anymore." She burst into fresh tears.

"Oh, how terrible!" Chastity couldn't help but feel guilty. "You should come over to me - er, Niama's house with me. We can buy ice cream and watch corny movies if you want, that always seems to help me."

Jennifer smiled a little through her tears, "You're sure Niama won't mind?"

"I'm sure."

*later that day*

"Howie, you've gotta meet this girl, she's absolutely amazing," Brian continued to tell his friend about Chastity.

"So when do I get to meet her?" he finally asked.

"How 'bout now?" Nick asked walking by, "Chas is here, Rok."

Chastity and Jennifer followed Nick into the backyard.

"Chastity," Howie said surprised, "What are you doing here... with Jen?"

"You've met?" Brian asked confused.

"Yeah, we met this morning -" Howie started.

Jennifer interrupted him, "Why you little bitch!" she said to Chastity, turning and slapping her. Then Jennifer ran off in tears.

"I'll get her," Krystal, who was also there, said.

"You know her?" Howie asked confused.

"Yeah, we met yesterday," Chastity said, rubbing her now reddened cheek, "I saw her crying this morning... she told me what you said, Howie."

"Oh," Howie said quietly.

"What are you guys talking about?" Brian asked, then it finally clicked, "Wait a minute. You mean Chastity is the girl from the coffee shop? The one you said you -" he cut himself off and stared blankly at Chastity.

"That's me," she said flatly.

"Ok," Brian said slowly.

"Look, Brian, if you want I'll -"

Brian cut Howie off, "No, it's alright, man. I never said I was in love." He turned and walked inside, "I'll see you guys later."

Chastity was confused, "What's going on here?"
