Reconciliation so soon

Even if one blabs about a celebrity, many fans want a so-called receipt or evidence. However, some people can get away with it with others merely relying on his/her words.

Sometime ago, someone spread a rumor about the reconciliation of an estranged couple. The pair was involved in a controversy that made headlines and as soon as the news came out, kibitzers doomed the relationship to failure. They were right because Female Companion (FC) declared her breaking away from Clueless Man (CM) immediately. In response, all CM subsequently did was to declare his love for FC incessantly. FC was not buying it and kibitzers were proud of her decision.

Oh, oh. Time passed. Despite the incident, FC and CM were allegedly spotted overseas. Contrary to her earlier declaration of keeping far away from CM, the sighting made observers wonder as to what happened to FC's stern declaration then.
