Meu amigo de infância prometeu que assim que terminássemos a faculdade, iríamos nos casar. Mas no dia da formatura, perante todos, ele se ajoelhou não para mim, mas para Ana, aquela falsa herdeira. Para o mundo, Ricardo era o herdeiro zen do círculo social, um homem que, mesmo tendo conquistado a mulher de seus sonhos, não hesitou em exibir sua paixão por mim após o pedido de casamento. Durante cinco anos de um casamento em que fui tratada como uma rainha, recebendo todo o carinho e atenção possíveis, me deixei enganar acreditando nesse conto de fadas. Até que um dia, por acaso, ouvi uma conversa entre Ricardo e um amigo dele: — Ricardo, agora que a Aninha virou celebridade, você ainda vai continuar fingindo para Júlia? — Não consegui casar com a Aninha, então tanto faz. Pelo menos, estando comigo, ela não atrapalha a felicidade da Aninha. Quando descobri todos os escritos deixados por ele, cada um deles tinha o nome da Ana. “Que Ana se liberte do que a prende, que ela encontre paz... Que seus desejos se realizem, que ela nunca sofra por amor. Ana, talvez não tenhamos destino juntos nesta vida, mas tomara que, em outra, eu possa segurar sua mão.” Cinco anos vivendo uma ilusão, e então acordei. Decidi assumir uma nova identidade e, para romper de vez, planejei meu próprio desaparecimento no mar. A partir de agora, mesmo que o destino insista, minha história e a dele não vão mais se cruzar. Não nesta vida, nem na próxima.

Grávida de nove meses, vi a amada do meu marido se mudar para a nossa casa com uma desculpa qualquer. Ela fingia sofrimento sempre que me via, e ele me acusava de exibir a barriga só para provocá-la. — A Rafa já sofre demais! E você ainda exibe essa barriga enorme só pra machucar! Só vai aprender se eu te der uma lição. — Rosnou ele, com frieza. Sem hesitar, mandou me trancar no sótão e proibiu qualquer um de me trazer comida. Supliquei, dizendo que os gêmeos estavam grandes, que o médico havia pedido minha internação urgente, pois o parto podia acontecer a qualquer momento. Mas ele apenas riu como se eu estivesse contando alguma piada tola. — Ainda faltam três dias pro parto. Não inventa desculpa para escapar! Vai pro sótão pensar bem no que você fez! Isso é o mínimo, depois do que fez com a Rafa! — Ele insistiu, ignorando completamente a minha dor. No sótão escuro, gritei até minhas unhas se quebrarem na porta. No silêncio sufocante, as contrações rasgavam meu corpo, cada onda de dor parecia não ter fim. Coberta de sangue, exausta e ainda presa, percebi que meu filho não sobreviveria. Três dias depois, enquanto tentava tomar um mingau, meu marido, já incomodado, comentou com desprezo: — Manda a Joyce descer para me preparar o mingau, e depois vá pedir desculpas à Rafa. Se ela pedir de um jeito decente, pode até levar ela pro hospital na hora de parir. Mas ninguém respondeu, pois o sangue já escorria do sótão, degrau por degrau, inundando a casa num silêncio mais aterrador que qualquer grito.

Di sebuah desa yang tenang namun menyimpan banyak rahasia, berdirilah sebuah warung makan sederhana bernama Warung Bu Rini. Tak ada yang istimewa dari tempat itu—kecuali satu hal: warung itu tak pernah sepi pembeli, bahkan di hari-hari paling sunyi sekalipun. Orang-orang hanya bisa menebak-nebak, hingga suatu malam, seorang gadis muda bernama Diah datang bekerja di sana. Sejak hari pertamanya, ia sudah merasa ada sesuatu yang tidak beres. Bau anyir menyengat muncul setiap kali Bu Rini menutup warung. Dari dapur belakang, ia sering mendengar suara bisikan yang memanggil namanya dengan lembut… lalu berubah menjadi tawa mengerikan. Sampai akhirnya Diah menemukan selembar kain lusuh di dalam toples kaca yang disembunyikan di bawah meja altar kecil. Kain itu basah oleh darah yang tak kering, dan setiap kali disentuh, tubuh Diah gemetar ketakutan. Sejak malam itu, mimpi-mimpi buruk mulai datang. Bayangan perempuan berambut panjang dengan kain merah menutupi wajahnya selalu mengikuti ke mana pun Diah pergi. Dan satu demi satu, orang di sekitar warung mulai mati dengan cara yang mengerikan. Apakah benar warung itu mendapat keberkahan dari “penglaris”? Atau sebenarnya, ada perjanjian lama yang menuntut darah sebagai bayaran? “Kain Penglaris” adalah kisah tentang keserakahan, kutukan, dan dosa yang diwariskan dari satu generasi ke generasi lain—karena tidak ada rezeki yang datang tanpa harga.
