息子がピアノコンクールに参加する日、私は向かう途中で交通事故に遭った。 怪我の状態を気にする余裕はなく、私はおびえながら会場に駆けつけ、ちょうど授賞式に間に合った。 息子は金メダルを手に取り、興奮した表情で私の方に走ってきた。 私は微笑みながら頭を下げ、彼は背を向けて金メダルを夫の初恋の首にかけた。 私が10年間愛してきた夫でさえ、イライラした口調で言った。 「お前、こんな格好してどうしたんだ？汚くて、まるで物乞いみたいだ！ 今夜の息子の祝賀会には来るなよ。お前が来たら恥ずかしいって言われるぞ！」 私は一言も言わず、一人で病院に行って診てもらった。 雨の中を走って別荘に戻ったが、ドアがすでに施錠されているのに気づいた。 そして、私は激しい雨の中、一晩中ドアをノックした。 夜明けが訪れ光が差し込む頃、私は彼らにメッセージを送った。 「離婚します。あなたたちの望む通り、これからはもう邪魔しません」

Hindi ko kailanman inakala na ang isang desperadong desisyon ay tuluyang magbabago sa buhay ko. Nang lumobo ang bayarin sa ospital ng aking lola, wala akong ibang pagpipilian kundi tanggapin ang isang hindi pangkaraniwang alok—ang magpakasal kay Conrad, ang bulag ngunit malupit na tagapagmana ng makapangyarihang pamilya Laurier. Sinasabi nilang ipinanganak siyang nagdadala ng kamalasan dahil namamatay ang mga mahal niya sa buhay. Ngunit kailangan nila ng asawa para sa kanya, at kailangan ko ng pera. Dapat sana, isang simpleng kasunduan lang ito. Ngunit mula nang pumasok ako sa kanyang mundo, napagtanto kong may higit pa kay Conrad kaysa sa mga bulung-bulungan. Ang kanyang pagkabulag ay hindi kahinaan—bagkus, ginawa siyang mas matalas, mas mapanganib. Bawat salitang binibigkas niya ay may bigat, at bawat dampi ng kanyang kamay ay nagpapadala ng kilabot sa aking balat. Hindi niya ako pinagkakatiwalaan. Iniisip niyang isa lang ako sa mga babaeng nais samantalahin siya. Pero paano kung unti-unti kong makita ang totoong lalaking nasa likod ng malamig niyang maskara? At mas masama pa—paano kung mahulog ako sa kanya?

I head to the hospital to get an abortion. Then, I return to the countryside and rear pigs with my grandmother. Later, when Levi sees my flat belly and asks to see our child, I throw a handful of ashes in his face. "There you go. It's all there."
