PAGE 3, PANEL 1

The Anti-Cupid gets frustrated and yells at the man.

ANTI-CUPID: "You're wasting my time!"

ANTI-CUPID: "I'm not interested! Geez!"

PAGE 3, PANEL 2

The Anti-Cupid realizes the couple she was targeting has left. The park bench is now empty, and in the distance, the couple walks away over a bridge.

ANTI-CUPID: "No! They're gone! You made me miss my target!"

PAGE 3, PANEL 3

The Anti-Cupid's wing sweeps dramatically across the panel as she berates the man.

ANTI-CUPID: "Because of you that girl is doomed to six months of depression and anguish!"

ANTI-CUPID: "They're going to break up tomorrow after having sex for the first time!"

MAN: "Umm... So?"

SFX: "FFFFFFFF!"

PAGE 3, PANEL 4

The man looks confused while the Anti-Cupid glares menacingly.

MAN: "Hey, what gives?"

ANTI-CUPID: "For once I wish my arrows could end lives, not just relationships."

I like the third panel best. I was rather alarmed at the ending to this, which suggests that the Anti Cupid would be capable of homicide if her powers were tangible! But then again, the character is supposed to be sinister, not cuddly.
