The Debt of Blood

The Debt of Blood

My father raised me on one principle: fair exchange. If I wanted anything, I had to earn it myself. Fifty cents for washing the dishes. A dollar for mopping the floor. Five dollars for a perfect score on a test. To buy the pair of white sneakers I had been dreaming of, I spent three months collecting recyclables. In that house, I lived like a pieceworker, paid by the task. It was not until my senior year of high school that everything began to crack. I collapsed during morning study, my body worn down by years of malnutrition. The doctor said I needed better nutrition. My father stood by my hospital bed and started doing the math. "Three hundred for the hospital stay. Two hundred for medication. Chester, this all goes on your tab for the future." I turned my head and saw a boy in a school uniform in the next bed. His father was feeding him spoonfuls of chicken soup, his eyes red with worry. In that moment, the world I had known for 18 years fell apart. It turned out not every child had to earn their parents' love. After I was discharged, I went home and saw the pair of designer sneakers on my brother's feet; it was worth thousands. That was when I finally woke up. I tore up the family photo and, without hesitation, applied to the college farthest from home. Ten years later, my father called me in tears. My brother had taken all his retirement savings, sold the house, and run off with his girlfriend. He was left with nothing. No home. No one. I smiled and tossed him a rag. "Want a place to stay? Sure. It's 50 cents per window. Earn your own rent."

A Price on My Hands

A Price on My Hands

I was the hospital's top surgeon. After three successful surgeries, Medical Affairs decided to reprimand me in front of the whole hospital and canceled my bonus for the month. I argued with the head of Medical Affairs. "I've been working for this place for ten years, and I've always been the first to do everything! I went through five surgeries nonstop last year and had to go through one myself for exhaustion! What did I do to deserve this?" Yes, I was the top surgeon, but the bills were stressing me out, too. My husband had just lost his job, and I had to pay for the car, the mortgage, and our kid's extracurriculars. The burden I had to shoulder wasn't an easy one. So, I was counting on that bonus to get my kid into a basketball club, and now it had been taken away from me. This couldn't be happening! I couldn't believe that they were blaming me for a successful surgery! I was high up in the hierarchy here, so the department head didn't start a fallout right away. Instead, he tried to calm me down. "You drank two bags of IV during the late-night surgery and charged the patients for it. Their family's complaining about unfair fees, and it went viral. We had no choice!" That reminded me. That surgery was a complex one, and it wasn't even supposed to be assigned to me. After all, I'd been working around the operating table for 36 hours prior to that. However, it was the deputy director who came to me and insisted that I take over. I had no choice but to go ahead.

Na Véspera do Casamento, Decidi Fazer um Aborto

Na véspera do nosso casamento, Leonardo Silva foi brutalmente agredido em um incidente inesperado. Quando cheguei ao hospital, desesperada com a notícia, ele já não me reconhecia mais. Os médicos diagnosticaram uma amnésia temporária causada pelo trauma na cabeça. Então, fiz de tudo. Planejei roteiros. Refiz nossos passos. Levei-o aos lugares que guardavam nossas memórias. Tudo para reacender algo, qualquer coisa. Mas, numa das visitas ao hospital, durante uma simples consulta de retorno, ouvi por acaso uma conversa entre ele e os amigos: — A Sabrina se esforça tanto por você. Isso não te comove? — Perguntou um deles. — Comover? Dá até enjoo. — Respondeu Leonardo, rindo. — Ela só me leva nos mesmos lugares de sempre. Tudo sem graça. As novinhas, sim... Sabem inovar. — E por que ainda vai se casar com ela? Se fosse eu, eu já teria cancelado o noivado e ido aproveitar a vida. Leonardo explodiu: — Cala a boca! Como pode dizer isso? Eu amo a Sabi! Nunca romperia com ela! Eu vou me casar com ela! Só... Talvez com um pequeno adiamento. Naquele momento, olhando o relatório médico perfeitamente normal em minhas mãos, tudo fez sentido. Não há grito que desperte quem escolheu fechar os olhos.
