Alex Banana Fish

Ang kapangahasan ni Rose ang nagdala sa kanya sa isang malaking panganib. Kung saan sa malayong probinsiya at liblib na bayan sa Cotabato siya ay napadpad. Habang nasa biyahe ay hinarang ang kanyang sinasakyang bus ng mga masasamang loob. Binitbit siya ng mga armadong lalaki na may nakakatakot na mga pagmumukha. Animo mga buwitreng gutom na nakakita ng karneng pag-aagawan sa katauhan niya. Nanganganib siyang malapastanganan. Subalit sa kabila ng takot ay hindi pinanghinaan ng loob si Rose. Dinala sya ng grupo sa kuta ng mga ito at ginawang bihag. Sa puntong iyon alam niyang nasa panganib ang kanyang buhay lalo na at natipuhan siya ni Horan ang mabagsik na pinuno ng mga bandidong dumukot sa kanya. Napasakamay siya sa pangangalaga ni Dimitri. Ang lalaking may mala-leon na lisik ng mata. Ngunit Imbis na mas lalong mangamba sa kaligtasan ay natagpuan niya ang sariling nais na mahulog sa mga bisig ng lalaking tulisan.

Cuando me apuñalaron, luché con todas mis fuerzas para llamar a mi hermano. Solo cuando mi conciencia comenzaba a desvanecerse, él respondió, con un tono de evidente fastidio. —¿Qué quieres esta vez? —Hermano, ayuda... No pude terminar la frase. Me interrumpió bruscamente. —¿Por qué siempre tienes problemas? A finales de mes es la ceremonia de graduación de Luna. Si no vienes, ¡te juro que te mataré! Dicho esto, colgó el teléfono sin dudar. No pude soportar el dolor. Cerré los ojos para siempre, con lágrimas aun corriendo por mi rostro. “Hermano, no tendrás que matarme. Ya estoy muerta.”

George Quinn brought his childhood sweetheart and their illegitimate son home. He said it was just a drunken mistake from seven years ago, and now he just wanted to make things right. Covering the boy's ears, he whispered to me, "Lucas is sensitive. Just say Emma is adopted to avoid upsetting him. Lily has struggled to raise him alone, and I owe her a proper title. In a few days, let's head to the courthouse for a divorce, but our daily life won't change." I didn't argue or fight. After enduring heartbreak and finalizing the divorce, I packed my things and left with my daughter. The butler urged George to persuade me to stay, but George dismissed him. "She is nearly 40 with a child in tow. Does she think another man will want her?" What he didn't know was that my long-lost first love came back last month. The man was still single, waiting for me all these years.

Saat tubuhku dimutilasi, aku berusaha untuk menelepon kakakku. Ketika aku hampir kehilangan kesadaran, dia menjawab panggilan dengan kesal. "Ada apa lagi?" "Kak, tolong ...." Sebelum aku selesai berbicara, dia sudah menyelaku. "Kenapa kamu begitu suka berulah? Pesta ulang tahun Yeri akan diadakan pada akhir bulan. Kalau kamu nggak datang, aku akan menghabisimu!" Setelah berkata demikian, dia langsung mengakhiri panggilan. Aku sudah tidak sanggup menahan rasa sakit dan memejamkan mata untuk selamanya, air mata masih mengalir dari sudut mataku. Kak, kamu tidak perlu membunuhku, aku sudah mati.

Quando eu estava sendo despedaçada viva, usei minhas últimas forças para ligar para o meu irmão. No instante em que minha consciência quase se apagava, ele atendeu o telefone, mas sua voz estava cheia de impaciência: — De novo? O que foi agora? — Mano… me salva… Antes que eu terminasse a frase, ele me interrompeu friamente: — Você arranja problema todo dia? No fim do mês é a festa de formatura da Marina. Se você não aparecer, eu mesmo te mato! E desligou sem hesitar. A dor me consumiu até eu fechar os olhos para sempre. As lágrimas ainda escorriam pelo canto do meu rosto. Mano, você não precisa me matar. Eu já estou morta.

While they slice me apart, I desperately call my brother, Nathan Slade. He finally picks up as my consciousness starts to slip and answers in an annoyed voice, "What now?" "Nathan, help—" I don't get to finish before he cuts me off. "Can't you ever go a day without drama? Gemma's graduation is at the end of the month. Miss it, and I swear I'll kill you!" Then, he hangs up without a second thought. The agonizing pain swallows me whole, and my eyes close for good, tears still trailing down my cheeks. Well, good news, Nathan… You won't have to kill me because I'm already dead.

Di acara tahunan perusahaan, suamiku dan sekretaris wanitanya bermain piano bersama di atas panggung dengan mesra. Setelah turun dari panggung dengan bergandengan tangan, putraku juga berlari dengan penuh semangat menghampiri mereka. “Bibi Sally hebat sekali, bisa melakukan apapun. Andai saja Bibi adalah ibuku.” Melihat tiga anggota keluarga yang tampak begitu harmonis di hadapanku .... Aku pun memutuskan untuk melepaskan semuanya. Sampah memang seharusnya dibuang.

The moment I was pushed into the river by my six stepbrothers and drowned there, I was still clutching a piece of candy my mom had given me. When I open my eyes again, I curl up in my swaddle as a one-month-old baby. That's when I notice six children glaring at me darkly with their hands outstretched, ready to strangle me. As I stare at them, I begin cursing them out mentally. "Just you wait till the day I can speak, you bastards!" My mom rushes out of the kitchen instantly. "It's a rare occasion for me to cook for the family, so I told you to keep an eye on your baby sister. Why are you cursing all of a sudden?" The brothers swap glances with each other in confusion. The oldest brother, Alex Finch, scratches his head. "You must be hearing things, Mom. We were about to play with Meadow. No one was speaking just now." Upon hearing Alex's shameless words, I continue cursing him out silently. "You're the most shameless bastard I've ever seen! When I'm three years old, you'll plot to sell me to an old single man in the countryside! Screw you!" Mom's hands tremble slightly at that moment. She quickly picks me up, her eyes as wide as saucers. I flash a toothless grin at her in return. "Don't be scared, Mom. This time, I'll definitely protect you!" Watch as I, a one-month-old baby, send my bastard of a father as well as the six ungrateful brats to prison!
