Early February, 1998

  • Not long before Hae's body is found, Becky, Adnan, Krista, Aisha and Sean go out to dinner. After dinner, they sit in Krista's room and look at pictures of Hae. Adnan is teary eyed.

  • Adnan drives Becky home, says he's worried about Hae, he prays for her, and that Hae was still calling him and paging him after the breakup. He says Hae called him the night before she went missing, and that she asked if they would ever get back together. Adnan told Hae no, but they would always be close. Adnan asks Becky if she thinks he "could have said something to Hae that night that made her do something or go somewhere?" Adnan says he was confused, but okay, with the breakup. But the fact that Hae still paged him after the breakup bothered him. Adnan didn't understand why Hae would do that but not want to be with him.
