Le premier amour de mon mari a été brûlée par de l'eau bouillante, et pour me punir, il m'a enfermée dans un cuiseur à vapeur à mi-hauteur, avec le feu réglé au maximum. « Tu dois subir mille fois la douleur que Pauline a endurée ! » J'étais enfermée dans cet espace étroit, je respirais difficilement, mon corps brûlait, et je lui ai crié en pleurant : « Je vais vraiment mourir ! » Mais il est parti sans se retourner, tenant son premier amour dans ses bras. « Ne t'inquiète pas, tu ne mourras pas. C'est la seule façon pour toi de comprendre la souffrance de Pauline ! » J'ai hurlé de désespoir dans le cuiseur, l'eau bouillante sous le panier s'est mise à éclabousser mon corps, et ma voix s'est peu à peu éteinte. Il est tout de suite parti en voyage à l'étranger avec son premier amour, et ce n'était qu'une semaine plus tard, en rentrant, qu'il s'est soudain souvenu de moi. « Cette garce a sûrement compris sa faute, sortez-la de là ! » Mais il ne savait pas que, dans le cuiseur arrêté par le manque d'eau, mon cadavre était déjà couvert de vers.
