100/6

義父が脳梗塞で倒れ、床には血が広がっていた。 私は慌てることなくモップを手に取り、淡々とその血を拭き取った。 嫁として、脳梗塞の治療で最も重要と言われる最初の6分間――そのゴールデンタイムを、私は意図的に見送ることにしたのだ。 前の人生では、義父が倒れているのを最初に見つけたのは私だった。すぐに救急車を呼び、病院に搬送した。 しかし、手術には直系親族の署名が必要だと言われ、私は夫に連絡を取ったものの、彼は「初恋相手との時間を邪魔された」と勘違いし、「どうせくだらない理由だろう」と取り合おうとせず、結局病院には来なかった。 その結果、義父は適切な治療を受けられず亡くなり、夫は最期の瞬間に立ち会うこともできなかった。その怒りの矛先は私に向けられ、彼は私を激しく責め立てた挙句、隙を見て包丁で何度も私を刺し、命を奪ったのだ。 「全部お前のせいだ！高齢の父親をちゃんと世話しなかったお前が悪い！生きている間に孝行できなかったなら、死んででも償え！」 気がつくと、私は義父が倒れたあの日に戻っていた。

父親を亡くし、入院中の母を養っている私――須藤朱莉は、ある大手企業に中途採用された。けれどその実態は仮の結婚相手になる為の口実で、高校時代の初恋相手だった。 二度と好きになってはいけない人。 複雑に絡み合う人間関生活。そしてミステリアスに満ちた6年間の偽装結婚生活が始まった――

이혼을 제기한 다음 날, 위자료 100억 원이 적힌 서류에 서명한 뒤 아내는 사라졌다. 그녀가 실종된 후, 쌍둥이 임신 소식과 아이의 친부가 따로 있다는 소문, 그리고 정체불명의 해외 송금 문제까지 차례로 수면 위로 드러났다. 지금까지 아내가 했던 모든 행동이, 진심이 아닌 모두 거짓이었던 걸까? 단 한 번만이라도 좋으니, 우리가 부부였던 시절로 돌아갈 수 있다면— 재벌가 후계자의 깊은 후회가 뒤늦게 찾아왔다.

I found an old quill in an antique shop and decided to buy it since I have always wanted to write with quills. However, as soon as I touched the quill to the paper, I was transported into the book. I wasn't the only one there, though three males who always hide their identities behind masks were in the book with me. They claim the quill belongs to them, and I must return it. Since I refuse, they follow me into every book I go into. One day, I was debating which of my mature books to write when I accidentally spilled the ink onto my book, 1001 Dark Tales. The only way they'll help me out of the book is if I give the quill back, and there is now a fourth. As I go through more of the book with them, I start noticing things. Things I had never planned for in my book, and it concerned me because even though I hadn't written those parts yet, none of the other stories I had used the quill on had ever gone that off track. However, when we tried to leave the book, it wouldn't let us back out. It seems we're stuck in the book until we finish all 1001 Dark Tales.

Even on my hundredth proposal, Isabelle Cole still turns me down. We've been together for seven years. For the previous 99 proposals, she said her childhood friend isn't married yet, and she can't bring herself to break the promise they've made. Staring at the ring in my hand, I finally can't hold it in anymore. "If Ronald never gets married, are you going to keep him company forever? What am I to you?" Isabelle's expression turns gloomy in an instant. She snatches the ring and throws it into the river. "Ron and I made a promise when we were kids that we'd get married at the same time. How can I just abandon him? "And besides, is that piece of paper really all that important, Lucas? We've been together for seven years. What difference would it even make?"

Eight years married, and my wife? She asked for a divorce 99 times. I thought it was just her usual drama—testing me. Then I found out she'd been wiring half a million every year to some dude. Always with the same note: ILU. When she hit me with divorce number 100, I finally signed. I pulled my money out of her little passion project and ghosted—moved my company overseas, wiped my tracks clean. Now she's out there losing her mind, trying to find me.

What was it like to grow old? Graduate college? Have a career in life? Get married and have your own family with your own kids?

But I didn't knew that in this lifetime, new things would begin again when I met a crazy but famous lead vocalist of Dare, the Interhigh Academy's most famous band.
