Rand O'Connel is a young man with whom Belinda attended school. She meets him again at a church party for Melissa. It is during this party that Belinda suggests to Rand a way that he can realize his dream of becoming a builder. Although Belinda at first believes that Rand is interested in Melissa, it soon becomes evident he is interested in dating Belinda. Although her speaks of their future, asks Belinda about her future, and hints that he has a proposition to make to her once he gets some money in the bank, Belinda does not seem to notice Rand is interested in her as a marriage partner.
