In this chapter, we learn that Victor and Vincent have decided to move to a neighboring village because they want to teach some kids there. They've already done a lot of good work in the village, and they're worried that they'll be disappointed if they don't get a raise. They want to know why they need to work so hard for a living, and if it's because they have a special power that makes them look like the person who rejected them. This power, they say, is healing itself. It's like a clock that's been flipped over, and Victor says that his younger brother gave him the clock as a gift. He says that he's fine, as long as he doesn't sleep at night. Time is flowing forward, he says, and he'll tell a story about him that no one listens to. True friends are people that know everything about one another. He's going to tell a secret story about himself that nobody listens to . He wants you to buy him a present for Christmas. He asks if he can ask the cards at the library one last time before he leaves to go live with his family in the new village. Vincent says yes, but he'd like to know if there's anything he can do to get the cards. He works at the local library, which brings back some memories of Jacky. He thinks that Jacky is a good person, and that he has a decent amount of attention, protection, and a good share of things.
