99 Days

My wife and I were both liars. She lied to me 99 times. "I'll forget all about him, I swear." That man was her first love. She never did forget about him. I only lied to her one time. To get her to sign the divorce papers. Time came to the final day of the cooling-off period. Three hours before it was up, I packed up all my stuff and bought a flight ticket to another country. Two hours before it was up, I cut up all my photos that had her in it, leaving only myself. One hour before it was up, I placed the divorce papers on the table. When she saw the papers, they drove her mad.

Xavier Stafford claims to love Aurora Bowman to the moon and back, but he's escaped from marrying her 99 times. To delay their marriage, he even orchestrates a car accident to cause her to miscarry. As if Aurora isn't already devastated after losing her baby, she overhears Xavier and his friend's conversation. "I only dated her for seven years to get revenge for Violet. If Aurora thought any of this was serious, she'd be in for a rude awakening!" Aurora's heart goes cold at those words. A rude awakening, indeed. Thankfully, there's still hope for her to walk away and save herself. After regaining her composure and gathering her thoughts, Aurora agrees to another marriage proposal. While Xavier carries out his 100th attempt to escape marriage, Aurora proudly gets married to another groom in Elmstead.

Anya Sawyer and I have been married for eight years. In that time, she brought 99 men back home. One day, I found myself looking at the 100th young man she had brought home ever since we got married. He shot me a taunting look before turning to Anya. "Ms. Sawyer, is this your useless husband?" Anya leaned into her seat and replied with a lazy yes. The young man patted my cheek with a grin. "Tonight, I'll show you what a proper man is capable of." … That evening, I was forced to sit in the living room and listen to their moans all night long. The next morning, Anya ordered me to prepare breakfast for her as usual. I refused. She seemed to have forgotten our marriage was by contract. That day just so happened to be the third-to-last day of our contract.

I have tried to persuade my wife, Sandra Kimmel, to go to AnthoNIX's music concert with me 99 times now. On the 100th attempt, Sandra finally agrees to go with me. She then buys us two front row tickets. But during the concert, I am stopped outside the venue by the guards because I didn't have my ticket on me. I am then left standing there all alone, immaculately dressed as I am. None of my calls manage to go through to Sandra, not even when the concert comes to an end. News of Sandra and her sidepiece attending the concert and asking AnthoNIX to perform his hit song 'Night Blossom' then starts trending online. My heart shatters into a million pieces. I begin mourning the loss of my marriage.

Pasé tres años enamorada de Santiago Mendoza, el mejor amigo de mi hermano. Él jamás quiso hacer pública nuestra relación. Pero nunca dudé de su amor. Después de todo, tras haber estado con 99 mujeres, desde que estaba conmigo ni siquiera miraba a otras. Incluso si solo era un simple resfriado, él dejaba proyectos de millones de dólares en el acto y volaba a casa para cuidarme. Llegó mi cumpleaños. Feliz, me preparaba para contarle a Santiago que estaba embarazada. Pero por primera vez, se olvidó por completo de mi cumpleaños y desapareció sin dejar rastro. La sirviente me dijo que había ido al aeropuerto a recibir a alguien muy importante. Me dirigí al aeropuerto. Allí lo vi, con un ramo de flores en las manos y el rostro tenso, esperando a una joven. Una joven que se parecía mucho a mí. Más tarde, mi hermano me contó que ella era el primer amor que Santiago nunca podría olvidar. Santiago se enfrentó a sus padres por ella, y cuando ella lo dejó, perdió la cabeza y buscó 99 parecidas para sobrellevar el dolor. Mi hermano lo dijo con admiración, conmovido por lo profundo que podía ser Santiago. Lo que no sabía era que su propia hermana era solo una más entre esas sombras del pasado. Los observé a los dos durante un largo, largo rato. Luego, di media vuelta y volví al hospital. —Doctor, no quiero tener a este bebé.

Tenho estado em um relacionamento com o melhor amigo do meu irmão, Emilio Slater, há três anos, mas ele nunca quis tornar nosso relacionamento público. Ainda assim, eu nunca duvidei do amor dele por mim. Afinal, ele já esteve com 99 mulheres antes, mas parou de olhar para qualquer outra por minha causa. Mesmo que eu estivesse com um leve resfriado, ele largava projetos de bilhões de dólares e corria para casa para cuidar de mim. Mas no meu aniversário, quando eu estava animada para contar a notícia da minha gravidez a Emilio, ele esqueceu meu aniversário pela primeira vez e desapareceu sem deixar rastro. A governanta me disse que ele tinha ido buscar alguém importante no aeroporto. Eu corro até lá e o vejo segurando flores, o rosto cheio de antecipação nervosa, esperando por uma mulher, uma que se parecia surpreendentemente comigo. Mais tarde, meu irmão me diz que ela é o primeiro amor de Emilio, aquela que ele nunca conseguiu esquecer. Emilio desafiou os pais por ela, e ele desmoronou depois que ela terminou com ele. Ele procurou 99 mulheres que se pareciam com ela para preencher o vazio. Meu irmão fala com admiração da profunda devoção de Emilio, sem saber que eu sou uma dessas substitutas. Eu observo Emilio e seu primeiro amor por muito, muito tempo. Depois, volto para o hospital sem hesitação. — Doutor, eu não quero mais esta criança.

In our five years of marriage, my husband, Derrick Wickham, bails on me 99 times for his childhood sweetheart, Jessica Harson. This time, after he stands me up, I find two plane tickets to Frantines in his office. "I was planning to surprise you for our anniversary. Since you've already seen them, we'll just meet at the airport," he says icily. I eagerly pack and get myself ready, arriving early at the airport. I wait from the wee hours of dawn till the late hours of night, but Derrick fails to show up. Then, I see a post on Jessica's social media. "It's my birthday today. Though he doesn't have the time to go on a trip with me to Frantines, I forgive him because he brought me to the amusement park instead!" In the past, I'd have called him, crying and demanding answers. But this time, I'm truly done.

Tahun ketiga mengejar Titus, sang "biksu suci" di kalangan elite ibu kota, aku tetap belum berhasil menikah dengannya. Aturan leluhur Keluarga Lingga menetapkan bahwa siapa pun yang ingin masuk ke Keluarga Lingga harus memohon sendiri dan mendapat hasil ramalan paling mujur. Namun, aku sudah memohon sebanyak 99 kali dan semua hasilnya adalah yang paling sial. Sebelum yang ke-100 kali, aku melihat dengan mata kepalaku sendiri, Titus mengganti semua kertas lamaran di dalam tabung. "Nggak peduli berapa kali, dia hanya akan mendapat hasil ramalan paling sial." Barulah aku sadar, dia benar-benar tidak mencintaiku. Tidak apa-apa, aku juga tidak ingin menikah dengannya lagi. Aku membuang tabung ramalan itu, lalu menelepon orang tuaku. "Aku menyetujui pernikahan aliansi dengan Keluarga Winata."

Seseorang bisa sekaya apa? Suamiku sangat kaya, orang-orang menjulukinya Bayang Kota, karena hampir separuh properti di Kota Bara adalah miliknya. Selama lima tahun menikah, setiap dia pergi menemani cinta pertamanya, dia akan memberikan sebuah rumah padaku. Setelah aku memiliki 99 rumah, suamiku menyadari bahwa aku berubah. Aku tidak menangis dan mengeluh, bahkan tidak memohon padanya untuk menemaniku. Aku memilih sebuah vila terbaik di Kota Bara, lalu menyiapkan surat pengalihan properti dan memintanya untuk menandatangani surat itu. Setelah menandatangani surat pengalihan properti, suamiku mencoba untuk menghiburku. "Tunggu aku pulang, aku akan membawamu pergi melihat kembang api." Aku menyimpan surat itu dengan tenang sambil mengiakan. Namun, aku tidak memberitahunya bahwa surat yang ditandatangani kali ini adalah surat perceraian kami.

Menjalin cinta selama tujuh tahun, pacarku yang seorang CEO sudah 99 kali membatalkan rencana untuk buat akta nikah denganku. Pertama kali, ketika asisten perempuan barunya terkunci di kantor, dia segera bergegas kembali dan meninggalkan diriku di depan kantor catatan sipil sampai tengah malam. Kelima kali, saat kami sedang berfoto bersama, dia mendengar asistennya diganggu oleh klien dan kembali untuk menolongnya, meninggalkan aku menjadi bahan ejekan orang lain. Sejak itu, setiap kali kami hendak membuat akta nikah, selalu ada kesulitan yang menimpa asistennya. Akhirnya aku benar-benar putus asa, dan memilih untuk pergi. Setelah aku pindah dari Kota Niros, dia malah dengan terobsesinya mencariku selama lima tahun.
