The next morning after breakfast, the two bands went to the recording studio once again. They recorded the last couple of songs for their album, which was titled "Union". When they recorded the final track, which was titled "Bittersweet", the touching lyrics got to Leila. After the recording sessions were done, Leila broke down into tears and ran out of the studio. The others went after her. After a couple of hours, Paul managed to find her. He said, "Leila, we've been looking all over for you. We were so worried." She said, "I'm sorry." He then asked, "Are you all right?" She said, "Yeah, it's just that our song reminded me of something. He asked, "What is that?" She said, "Today is the anniversary of when I lost someone very special to me, a dear friend of mine." Paul was touched by this. He knew exactly how she was feeling. He said, "I'm so sorry to hear that." He gave her a hug. The others soon caught up with Paul. Erin said, "Next time you get upset, don't run off. Please talk to us." Leila said, "You're right. I'm sorry I worried you." Lola said, "Don't be sorry. We're just glad you're okay." This made Leila smile. Her new friends really cared about her. That was a good feeling. Knowing they would listen, she decided to tell them her tragic story.
Closing
Carl finished telling his story. John said, "This was a very touching story. I understand what you've been through." He wiped a tear from his eye. Peter had been crying, too. He said, "You're living a good life, mate." Stan, who rarely cried, was also crying. He said, "Yes, especially compared to what you've been through." Allen said, "I'm really glad you are living a good life." Erin and Lola hugged Carl. They admired how brave he was for telling his story. Erin, of course, sort of knew what he went through. After all, she had been abused by her grandfather. Paul placed a hand on Carl's shoulder and said, "You're a brave man, Carl. You're a brave man." Carl said, "Thanks for supporting me while I told my story. I'm glad that things have turned out for the better."
