Karma

I die in the corridor of the private hospital my husband established after being forced to give my heart to his true love. Before my death, my six-year-old son tearfully begs him to save me thrice. The first time, he holds my husband's hand and says I'm coughing up blood. My husband sneers. "Looks like she's learned tricks—she knows how to teach children to lie now." Then, he has his bodyguards kick my son out of the ward. The second time, my son grabs his sleeve and says I'm in so much pain that I'm incoherent. My husband frowns. "It's just a heart transplant. The doctor said she won't die." The bodyguards step forward and drag my son out of the ward again. The third time, my son grovels at my husband's feet and grabs his pants, sobbing and saying that I'm already unconscious. My husband is infuriated. He grabs my son by the neck and throws him out of the ward. "I told you Nadia won't die! I'll throw her and you out of the hospital if you come here and disturb Ruby's rest again!" My son gives his most previous item—a guardian angel pendant—to a nurse to save me. The nurse accepts it and arranges for me to be admitted to the last available ward in the hospital. However, Ruby Sharpe has someone stand before it with her pet dog. She says, "Sorry, kiddo. Your father's worried I'll be bored without my dog, so this ward has been set aside for my dog to stay in."

Lorsque je suis enceinte de six mois, ma petite sœur a un grave accident et a besoin d'urgence d'une transfusion sanguine. Après le groupage, je suis la seule à pouvoir la lui donner. Cependant, je suis tellement épuisée et amaigrie par des vomissements gravidiques que je suis obligée de refuser. Mais ma famille me force à me rendre dans la salle de transfusion. Avec un gros ventre, je suis impuissante à leur résister et je ne peux que demander de l'aide à mon mari. À ma grande surprise, il adopte une attitude indifférente. « Tu es en bonne santé, le don de sang ne t'affectera pas, Hélène est différente, elle a un bel avenir, nous ne pouvons pas la laisser avoir des regrets. » Après la transfusion, je tombe dans les pommes dans la salle, après avoir repris mes esprits, la première chose que je fais est de réserver un avortement.

Ibuku adalah seseorang dengan pemikiran konservatif. Demi mempertahankan kesucianku, dia sengaja memesan set bodysuit ketat untuk membungkus tubuhku. Lantaran takut aku akan diam-diam membukanya di sekolah, dia bahkan mengikatnya dengan lima karet gelang dengan keadaan disimpul mati. Hanya saja, bahan pakaian ini terlalu kasar. Suatu bagian di tubuhku tergesek hingga terasa sangat gatal. Jadi, sejak kecil aku pun sudah bisa memuaskan diriku sendiri. Perlahan-lahan, cara ini sudah tidak ampuh lagi. Pada akhirnya, aku sampai ke tahap tidak bisa duduk dan berdiri dengan tenang. Aku menangis mengatakan kepada ibuku bahwa aku sakit, berharap dia tidak memaksaku untuk mengenakan pakaian ini lagi. Aku juga ingin dia membawaku berobat. Alhasil, ibuku hanya memarahiku. Dia mengatakan aku ingin mencoba untuk berhubungan. Demi meredakannya, aku mulai memasukkan banyak barang besar di dalam pakaian. Saat aku dewasa, ibuku meninggal akibat kecelakaan mobil. Akhirnya aku juga bisa terlepas dari pakaian sialan itu. Anehnya, setelah aku melepaskannya, aku bukannya merasa nyaman, malah merasa semakin tidak nyaman.

On my birthday, Connor Simpson's first love jumped off a building due to depression. She died on the spot. Connor blamed everything on me. I never celebrated my birthday again after she died. After the murderer electrocuted me for more than ten hours, they forced me to call Connor. "Connor, it's my 25th birthday today. Can you come over and spend time with me?" However, Connor did not notice anything unusual. His voice was laced with venomous iciness. "Clarisse Winter, Audrey wouldn't have died if it weren't for you. How dare you ask me to celebrate your birthday? If only you were the one who died." I heard him coaxing a woman on the other end just before he hung up on me. That low and gentle tone was what I loved to hear the most in the past. That night, the murderer cut my body into countless pieces, packed them in bags, and threw them in front of the police station. Connor was summoned back overnight. He spent two days and two nights piecing together the body parts, but he did not realize that the dead person was the wife that he hated the most.

It was almost New Year. I had just withdrawn money from the bank when I noticed that the amount on my passbook didn't match the cash in my hand. I counted carefully—my passbook showed a different figure than the five thousand dollars I was holding. Frustrated, I turned and went back to the counter to find the teller who had handled my transaction. Clutching the receipt, I tried to be polite. "Excuse me, I think there might be a mistake with this transaction." Instantly, she snapped, pointing her finger at my nose. "Don't you know that once you leave the counter, we are not responsible for any discrepancies?" I waved my hands, trying to explain. "No, wait, look again. I clearly withdrew five thousand dollars, but on my passbook, it shows…" She cut me off impatiently. "When you filled out the form, it was all right there. Once you leave the counter, it's not our problem. You signed the form yourself, confirming everything. Are we supposed to correct it every time someone claims a mistake after leaving the bank?" I froze. No wonder she kept repeating that the bank isn't responsible after leaving the counter. She thought I had come back to ask for more money. What I was really trying to explain was simple: I withdrew five thousand, yet my passbook showed that I deposited five thousand.
