LOGINWhen I was seven, my sister and I were kidnapped at the same time. The cash my parents brought was only enough to save one child, so they chose to save me first. Because of that, my sister was raped by the kidnappers, and both of her legs were broken. After that, I became the sinner of the family, spending every day trying to atone for what had happened. On Christmas Day, just because my cooking didn't suit my sister's taste, my parents locked me in my room. My soul drifted out of my body, and I was shocked to see my sister, who had supposedly been disabled for twenty years, walking around perfectly fine. She kicked her wheelchair aside and complained, "I'm tired of pretending to be disabled after all these years." Mom said, "Sweetheart, if you didn't pretend to be disabled, Sophie wouldn't serve you willingly." Dad chimed in, "Exactly. After all, the three of us worked together to deceive her back then. You can't let the truth slip." So the twenty years I spent atoning for my sins had all been one big lie. Almost a week later, they finally remembered to come home. By then, I was already a corpse.

Are you trying to slack off?"The food tastes awful! Are you trying to starve us?"Those were the exact words they'd once used to berate me.Now, they were thrown right back at Rosie.Late at night, Mom and Dad would force her to kneel in front of my portrait and repent."Say it! How did you kill your sister?"Say it! Tell us how cruel you are!"Rosie kneeled on the cold floor while recounting her crimes. Her voice went from trembling, to numb, and finally to hysterical.I floated in midair and watched Rosie, who had once thought she was better than everyone else, crawl on the floor and beg for scraps.I laughed bitterly. 'What goes around comes around.'She was the one who had to ato
It was a family portrait.It was the only photo of the four of us together from twenty years ago.In the photo, I was smiling widely while holding Rosie's hand. My eyes were filled with hope for the future.That photo had once been torn to pieces by Mom in a fit of anger.It was because I'd accidentally knocked over Rosie's medicine.I couldn't bear to throw it away.I picked up every single piece, carefully taped them back together with clear tape, and hid it in this tin box. I held it dear and close.Mom picked up the photo with trembling hands and turned it over.There was a crooked line of childish handwriting on the back. It was written with a pencil. The words had already faded somewhat.[I wish the kidnappers had taken me that day. Rosie wouldn't have been in pain, and Mom and Dad wouldn't have been sad. I'm a bad girl. I deserve to die.]That one line completely broke Mom's heart. "S-Sophie. My Sophie–"She clutched the photo tightly against her chest and let out a h
Rosie's face instantly turned pale.She had never imagined that the secret she'd hidden all these years would be exposed."I-I have no idea what you're talking about–""No idea?" Mom stepped forward and slapped her hard across the face. "That fortune teller has already been arrested! He confessed to everything!"Rosie! How could you be so heartless? She's your sister!"You got her killed just because you wanted all our love to yourself and didn't want to do any work!"Mom sobbed hysterically. Thinking about everything they'd done to me over the past twenty years, she wanted nothing more than to kill the monster standing before her."I-I didn't mean to–"Rosie covered her face. Tears instantly streamed down her cheeks. "I-I was scared that you wouldn't love me anymore–""Enough!" Dad roared. "From today on, you're no longer part of the Jackson family! We won't pay a single cent of your medical bills anymore! Whatever happens to you has nothing to do with us!"After Rosie was t
After the old man was identified, he glanced at my parents and suddenly snorted. "Well, well. Isn't this the gullible rich guy I met?""The gullible rich guy?" Dad froze."Of course." The old man sneered. "Back then, I was only passing by your house. I only wanted to con you out of a meal."But your older daughter secretly slipped me five hundred bucks after hearing that I could make her parents love only her."I figured I'd be stupid not to take the money, so I casually told you that her little sister was a jinx and she was the lucky one."I never expected you to actually believe me! Hahaha! Your family was the easiest I've ever conned!"Thump.Dad nearly lost his balance. Mom pointed at the fortune teller, but for a long time, she couldn't get a single word out. "Y-You!"'Five hundred bucks.' I suddenly remembered.That year, five hundred bucks really had gone missing from our house.It had been Dad's freshly issued bonus.Back then, Mom and Dad had searched everywhere and
