Some nights Ana would slip into Berto's room so they could watch TV alone. They usually watched comedies or soap operas, but one night he turned on Law and Order. In that episode there was a man attacking a young girl. Ana felt very uncomfortable and asked him why he watched that trash. He did not know anything was wrong and teased her about being scared. This reminded her greatly of Ernesto and the times he molested her and her sister. She became more and more tense and more memories kept coming back to her head. He finally asked her what was wrong and she told him about the night with Ernesto many years ago. She started crying and he held her and told her it was going to be okay. He told her it was not her fault and she should not feel bad about it. Now Berto and Ana knew everything about each other. All their secrets were not hidden anymore and nothing was between them to separate them.
The next week after they attended Mass together at the hogar, Pablo and Silvia took all the residents out shopping at the supermarket. Ana and Berto decided to stay back. They again sat next to each other on the couch while watching TV. They started kissing and going farther. Ana asked him if they really should be doing this and if they should be using protection. They were too caught up in the moment and let things happen without using protection. This became a usual thing at night, Ana would sneak to his room and they would make love. Every night but the first they used protection.
