100 Simple Paper Flowers

帰りの車は荷物でいっぱいになり、弟しか座る場所がなくなったので、両親は僕に100円を渡し、バスで帰るように言った。 でも、バス代は200円だった。 「どうしてそんなに気が利かないの？『子供だから100円でいい』って言いなよ」 二人はそう言い捨てると、弟だけを連れて行ってしまった。 家に着いたら、母が、弟に新しく買ったおもちゃの箱を開けてあげていた。 そして、父は、彼に新しい服を着せてあげていた。 外がどしゃ降りの雨になって、二人は、ようやく僕のことを思い出した。 「あの子、なんでまだ帰ってこないの。本当にトロいんだから、何にもできやしない！」 だけど、その時、たった100円足りなかったせいで、僕はバスから降ろされ、別の方法で帰るしかなかったんだ。 その後、変わり果てた姿にされた体を引きずって、僕が家にたどり着いた時、みんな、その場に泣き崩れた。

100回目となる婚約披露宴。それだというのに、神崎湊（かんざき みなと）はまたしても、迷うことなく私を置き去りにした。 交際して七年。これまでの99回の婚約でも、彼は「幼馴染がまだ結婚していないから、約束を破るわけにはいかない」と言い続けてきた。 私は手の中にある指輪を握りしめ、初めて彼に問いかけた。 「じゃあ、白川琴音（しらかわ ことね）が一生結婚しなかったら、あなたも一生彼女に付き添うつもりなの？ 私はどうなるの？私のことは何だと思っているの？」 湊は瞬く間に顔色を曇らせ、私の手から指輪をひったくると、窓の外へと投げ捨てた。 「琴音とは子供の頃から、一緒に結婚しようって約束してたんだ。彼女を一人残していくなんてできるわけないだろ！ それに、一ノ瀬雫（いちのせ しずく）。お前は紙切れ一枚にそこまでこだわるのか？俺たち、七年も一緒にいるんだ。その紙があろうがなかろうが、同じことじゃないか」

私は杉野芽衣（すぎの めい）、音信不通だった九条一航（くじょう いっこう）が、突然SNSにこんな投稿をした。 【この投稿を100番までに『いいね』した人全員に、別れ祝い金をプレゼント】 瞬く間に、「いいね」は99件まで増えていた。 きっとまた、私が以前の十回のように、折れて謝り、投稿の削除を懇願するのを待っているんだろう。 だが、今回は違った。 私はその投稿をシェアし、一言コメントを添えた。 【私もその一人に入れて】 そして、彼のSNSも電話番号も、すべてブロックした。 三日後、一航の幼馴染からメッセージが届く。 【一航さんの卒業公演、あなたのチケットも取ってあるよ。来てくれたら、今回のことは水に流すってさ】 私は机の上にある航空券に目を落とした。 【用事があるから無理】 用事があるのは本当だ。東山大学の大学院に合格し、今夜の飛行機で東山に向かうところだ。 彼とは、もう二度と会うことはない――そう心に決めていた。

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?"

Zesa Russo commands the boardroom with the same precision and confidence she brings to every aspect of her life. At 28, she’s the fierce CEO of Techya, a company she’s built from the ground up. Driven, unrelenting, and unapologetically bold, she’s never been one to wait for a prince charming to come sweep her off her feet—instead, she’s the force that shapes her own destiny. And her destiny has always involved him. The man who had once eluded her grasp, the one she had silently craved for years. But Zesa isn’t the kind to let love slip through her fingers. No. She's determined to make him hers, no matter what. Slowly, inevitably, she knows he’ll surrender his heart to her—just like everything else she’s ever set her sights on. ____ Levi’s mischievous gaze locks onto mine, daring, seductive, his lips curving into a slow smirk as he steps closer. “Should I stop?” His voice is velvet, deep and teasing, laced with danger. But I don’t flinch. “No,” I breathe, my pulse quickening, every nerve in my body on edge. His smirk deepens, a dark promise in his eyes as his fingers slowly trace the hem of my dress, lifting it with agonizing precision. The whisper of fabric against my skin sends shivers down my spine. His lips—warm, soft, and skilled—graze the sensitive skin of my inner thighs. Levi’s hand slips beneath the fabric, fingertips brushing against my desire, teasing, drawing out a soft gasp from me. The heat between us is suffocating, yet intoxicating. “Levi…” My voice trembles as he nips gently at my thigh, his breath hot against my skin. “You’ll be the one begging me to stop,” he murmurs, the promise in his words thick, dripping with need.

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.
