Candle Inanimate Insanity

After the college entrance exams, my parents left me at home and took their adopted daughter on a trip to the beach. A typhoon hit, and the three of them never came back. When the news reached me, I did not cry or throw a tantrum. I had their deaths registered right away and pulled out the life insurance I had bought in advance. I received one hundred million in compensation. My fiance scolded me for caring only about money. What he did not know was that I had been reborn. In my past life, after I learned about their deaths, the huge debts they had left behind fell on me. I gave up the chance to go to college and started working to pay everything back. I fought to protect our ancestral home from debt collectors. My fiance stayed with me and cheered me on when I came home late at night from delivery runs. But he never gave me a single cent to help. At thirty-five, I finally cleared every debt. On my birthday, I bought myself a ten-dollar cake to celebrate. Just as I was about to blow out the candle, the door opened. My parents and their adopted daughter, who should have died in the typhoon, walked in dressed in designer clothes. They smiled at me smugly. “Well done! We can finally believe that you aren’t greedy for money. You’ve passed the test. From today, you are qualified to be the daughter of the Jameson family.” “Jane, this brilliant idea was all thanks to you.” My adopted sister smiled. She leaned close and blew out my candle. The only light left in my twenty years of lifetime went out with it. My body gave in to exhaustion. My heart failed. I collapsed and died on the spot. When I opened my eyes again, they were about to head to the beach in the middle of the typhoon. I bought a massive accident insurance policy for them on the spot. This time, all I wanted was for them to disappear from this world forever.

Paninumula: Pagkatapos ng limang taon na patago nilang kasal, hindi kailanman malapit sa kanya ang kanyang asawa sa harap ng iba. Hanggang sa isinama nito ang kanyang dalawang anak na lalaki at maging si Trixie Domingo para mag candle light dinner at makatanggap ng papuri mula sa pamilya ni Shania mula sa internet bago ito tuloyang mamaalam. Nang marinig niya ang kanyang anak na tinawag itong "Auntie Trixie" dahilan ng pagkaguho niya at pagkawalang interest nito sa asawa niya na kailanman ay hindi ito mahal maging ang kaniyang mga anak ay kinamumuhian siya. Naisipan na lamang ng Thessa na magpaka layo-layo at tanging paraan niya lamang ay mahalin ang sarili matapos ang pakikipag diborsyo sa asawa nito, at balikan ang dating maliit na negosyo sa Baranggay Payapa, doon ay nakakapag experimento siya ng mga halamang para sa mga may sakit , at mga halamang pang paganda. Matapos malaman na gusto niyang maghanap ng Tatay para sa anak niyang Babae , isang sayantipikong boss, isang financial tycoon , at isang nangungunang idolo sa isang aktibadong teleserye at lahat ng mga ito ay nag rekomenda at nagpakilala sa kanilang sarili. Para humingi lamang ng pabor. Kalaunan ang kanyang dating asawa ay biglang lumuhod at punong puno ito ng pagsisi sa mukha, "Thessa" mahal kita pwede ba tayong magpakasal muli? Ang tila bosses na puno ng pagsisi ng kanyang asawa. "Carlo" para alam lang alam mo sariwa pa saakin ang lahat ng nagyari mula ng ikaw ay nagloko! Maging ang mga anak nito ay nagmakaawa na rin na balikan sila: "Nay" ikaw ang kailangan namin. At si Thessa ay iwinagayway na lamang ang mga kamay, " Hindi!" Hindi ko na kaya pa.
