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.

Faltava apenas um mês para o meu casamento quando descobri que meu noivo já planejava ter um filho com sua amada. Eu não aceitei aquilo, mas ele insistia nesse assunto todos os dias. Duas semanas antes da cerimônia, um exame de gravidez chegou até mim. Foi então percebi que a tal amada já estava grávida havia quase um mês. Meu consentimento nunca foi sequer considerado. Naquele instante, todos os anos do nosso relacionamento evaporaram como fumaça. Cancelei o casamento, apaguei todas as lembranças e, no mesmo dia em que deveria estar vestida de noiva, vesti meu jaleco e mergulhei de cabeça no laboratório. Dali para trás, eu não tinha mais a ver com ele!

Depois de renascer, decidi que não iria mais me apegar obsessivamente a Wagner Rocha. No aniversário dele, ele colocou uma placa dizendo: [Cachorros e Juliana Campos não entram]. Dei meia-volta imediatamente e fui para São Cristóvão, ficando bem longe dele. Ele disse que sentia enjoo ao sentir meu cheiro em casa, então obedeci e me mudei sem questionar. Disse também que, após a formatura, não queria nem respirar o mesmo ar que eu na cidade, então parti rapidamente e nunca mais voltei. Por fim, afirmou que a minha presença poderia fazer Clarinda Prado entender as coisas de forma errada. Eu apenas assenti, e logo comecei a sair com outra pessoa. Fui repetidamente fazendo escolhas opostas às que fiz na minha vida passada. Tudo porque, na vida anterior, depois de finalmente me casar com Wagner, Clarinda se jogou de um penhasco e tirou a própria vida. Ele me chamou de assassina, me torturou, me maltratou e, no fim, me deixou morrer no fundo do mar. Desta vez, só quero viver bem. Depois, quando segurei a mão do meu novo namorado, Wagner ficou parado no meio do caminho, os olhos injetados de sangue. — Juliana Campos, se você vier comigo agora, eu perdoo a brincadeira que você fez.

“Oh my darling Uncle”. I said while hugging him as he was backing me. “Uncle?”. A different voice asked and it seems to come from the person I'm hugging. He turned around with me in his arms and I stared into his eyes. Dark eyes. Uncle Max's eyes are blue, like mine. I let go of him immediately like I had been burned and blushed furiously. “Uhm, sorry. I thought you… were my uncle”. I told him. A chuckle brought my attention back to his handsome face. “Hello cutie, why do you think your uncle is here?” He said, his voice sending shivers down my body. *** Happiness Matthews, a 19-year-old college freshman, thought she had everything figured out when she left her small Texas town for the bright lights of California.

lunch went by pretty quickly, and we were back to classes soon enough. I'd like to forget to get a book out of my locker, so I went to go quickly and went to get it. I was leaning against the locker next to mine as I quickly scanned my schedule on my locker door. When warm air fanned the side of my face. "Move" being the excellent human being I am, I jumped out of fright, flinging the heavy calculus textbook in my hands backward. I hear a grunt and turn to find the person hunched over as they hold part of their face "Oh God! I'm so sorry!" I panicked. and then he looked up. the first thing I noticed was his short, dark hair. it looked so smooth, and 1 almost reached out to play with it. My eyes trailed down to his strong jaw line, down to his broad shoulders. I didn't even realize that I was biting my lip as I further inspected the Adonis before me. His arm flexed, bringing my attention to the amber eye he was now covering It was him. Six. He is the most popular and dangerous guy in school. And I'd managed to injure him with my calculus textbook.
