Lucio looked up to see who was approaching him on the terrace. It was the building manager reminding him that no one was permitted to be on the unfinished terrace. He reluctantly left the terrace and headed downstairs to his apartment in a pensive state. He didn't know what to do; he felt lost without Dina but needed to move forward with his life.

When Lucio entered his apartment, he looked around and knew things had to change, starting with the photographs of Dina covering his mirror, so he began to remove them. As he was removing them, one of the photographs fell, and when he went to pick it up, he saw Dina's handwriting on the back: "St Petersburg, Florida, 2014 at Justin's house," with a heart drawn on it. The photo was from before Lucio knew her, and he had never seen the writing on the back before. He also never heard her mention anybody named Justin, so he immediately wondered who Justin was. As he examined the photo closer, he saw a street intersection in the background.

Lucio paced around the apartment with the photo in his hand, thinking about what he should do, but at this point, he was sick of thinking. It was time for him to do something instead, so he booked a trip to St. Petersburg, Florida.

Though married to an American, Lucio had never been to the United States. Shortly before Dina's disappearance, he had applied for his passport, which he had now received. He remembered being surprised that Dina wasn't more excited when he told her he had applied, especially after she had asked him many times to come to America with her. Could that have been because of Justin? Was she involved with him while she was married to Lucio? These thoughts were beginning to consume Lucio, leaving him paranoid, jealous, and angry. Finally, he just came to the conclusion that he didn't know much about Dina's life in Florida because he never asked, but now he would know.

Lucio arrived in Florida with a one-track mind: to find Justin. He rented a car and drove to Justin's house as soon as he landed. The sun was setting, and it was dark by the time he arrived at the house.

Lucio parked across the street from the house, walked over, and rang the doorbell, but there was no answer. He then decided to walk around and look in the open windows to see if he saw Dina. Then he heard a man shout out, "Who's on my property?!" Lucio didn't speak English, so he didn't understand what the man was saying, but it didn't sound friendly, so he decided to hide in a bush. Then the man exited his home and walked around his property. Lucio saw him walking slowly with a gun. Lucio tried not to make a sound despite being frightened, but he was unsuccessful.

The man heard Lucio's breathing and began to walk toward the bush. Lucio was in a life-or-death situation where he needed to act fast, and by survival instinct, so he did the only thing he could do: run! As his feet hit the ground, he sprinted, and the bullets from the gun flew around him, luckily not hitting him, as he dodged them. Then, finally, the shooting stopped, but Lucio had not; he just kept running until he was very far away from that house, completely forgetting that the rental car was parked outside that house.

Lucio ran until he reached the beach. He had no idea where he was in relation to the house. He was exhausted, disappointed, and genuinely "shaken up," so he just decided to find a spot on the beach where he could sleep.

The next morning, Lucio was awoken by beachgoers. He felt the warm sun and admired how it shone over a seemingly perfect beach, more beautiful than any beach he had ever seen. It was a shame that he had to see Florida for the first time under such dire circumstances. As he looked around, it was exactly as Dina described it, and he regretted how dismissive he was when she talked about her home. He thought of what Dina would say if he knew that he had finally made it to her homeland, a piece of her he had never known.

Although the night before was dangerous, Lucio still had to return to the house to pick up his car. It was much easier for him to figure out how to get back to the house in the daylight. As he approached his car, he saw a car pull out of Justin's house. The driver appeared to be Dina, but Lucio was unsure.

Nonetheless, he quickly raced into his car to follow her. He drove intensely in pursuit of her and ran a red light, which caused another car to collide with his car. The car had begun to slow down before the collision, but not enough time to completely avoid it, so no one was seriously hurt. Although Lucio had some minor injuries, the most painful injury was when he saw the car he was following drive far away, and that he might have lost Dina yet again.
