Da Umberto Review

Minha família tinha uma loja de produtos adultos. Naquele dia, eu estava exausta demais e acabei descansando ali mesmo, no fundo da loja. Não imaginava que, por um descuido do destino, eu ficaria presa em uma cadeira erótica. Quando o senhor Gabriel, o vizinho da porta ao lado, entrou na loja, acabou me confundindo com um novo modelo de brinquedo adulto recém-lançado. Sem desconfiar de nada, começou a agir como um cliente comum. Foi longe demais e chegou ao ponto de puxar minha calça...

Depois que tranquei a faculdade, meus pais não me pressionaram. Mas a amiga de infância do meu namorado, que sempre cultivou a imagem de ser uma pessoa superinteligente, me ligou. Eu estava ocupada aproveitando a vida no interior, cultivando uma horta, nadando no riacho, sem tempo algum para programar. Na vida passada, ela entregou, um dia antes de mim, um projeto de programação idêntico ao meu. Todos me insultaram, dizendo que eu era desavergonhada, acusando-me de plágio e fraude. Tentei me explicar, mas ninguém acreditou em mim. Depois, ela ainda fez lives, caluniando-me na internet, dizendo que eu praticava bullying no campus. Atacaram minha família nas redes sociais de maneira enlouquecida, meus pais, tentando fugir de perseguidores extremistas, acabaram sofrendo um acidente de carro e faleceram. Não suportando o golpe, saltei de um prédio alto, morta sem poder descansar em paz. Até o último instante, enquanto minha consciência se dissipava, eu não conseguia entender o que havia acontecido. Era claramente o fruto do meu próprio esforço, por que alguém conseguiu publicar antes de mim? Quando abri os olhos novamente, eu, Sílvia Simões, voltei para o dia anterior ao incidente do plágio.

Eu falhei no teste de educação física da faculdade, e treinar era a última coisa que eu queria. Lorenzo, meu tio sem relação de sangue, insistiu em me ajudar para treinamento. Mal tinha feito alguns agachamentos, e já senti uma dor forte no meu peito. Meu corpo fraquejou, e acabei caindo, sem forças, nos braços de Lorenzo. — Não dá mais, tio Lorenzo... — Murmurei, com a voz fraca. — Eu... eu não estou usando top esportivo... Lorenzo respirava pesado. — Viviane, eu vou te ajudar. — Disse ele, com firmeza. Para minha surpresa, senti as mãos dele, ásperas e fortes, segurando meu peito. Ele começou a me guiar, me levantando e abaixando. O movimento ficava cada vez mais rápido, e meu corpo inteiro tremia...

Quando descobri a gravidez, Umberto Azevedo contratou um médico renomado a peso de ouro para me receitar medicamentos para a gestação. Ele ficou na igreja, sem comer ou beber, ajoelhado por longas horas orando por um parto seguro para mim. — Querida, você está sofrendo muito. Assim que o bebê nascer, vou compensá-la por tudo. No mesmo dia, atendi o telefone dele por acaso. — Diretor Azevedo, conforme suas ordens, o remédio da senhora foi adulterado com medicamentos abortivos. A criança nascerá morta. — O filho da Sra. Santos é muito saudável e certamente nascerá bem para se tornar o herdeiro do Grupo Azevedo. — A senhora não perceberá nada, e isso não estragará a relação entre o senhor e ela, pode ficar tranquilo. Baixei os olhos para a minha barriga proeminente, nunca imaginei que o amor dele fosse tão falso. Então, sem mais apegos, eu, Lílian Werneck, assinei o acordo de divórcio e decidi partir.

Setiap kali ditanya, kenapa tak pernah meng-upload foto Luna di media sosial?

Perempuan itu jadi banyak tuntutan hanya karena ketidakpercayaan di dalam diri terlalu besar mempengaruhi, hingga akhirnya diri sendiri yang menyebabkan orang lain menertawakan keburukan yang selama ini dijaga oleh Rizky. Sanggupkah Rizky bertahan dengan perangai Luna yang berlebihan hingga tak lagi mennghargai cinta tulus yang telah diberikan?

— Com um homem como eu por perto, pra que brinquedos? Vem. Deixa-me cuidar de você. Enquanto o cheiro pesado dos trabalhadores impregnava o vagão-leito do trem, o meu vício começava a se manifestar. A calcinha já estava completamente molhada. Sem alternativa, acabei buscando prazer sozinha. Não imaginava, porém, que seria pega em flagrante. Um dos homens puxou o cobertor de uma só vez. Os olhos dele brilhavam de expectativa enquanto me encarava, claramente pronto para agir.
