Good Shounen Ai

I return to my hometown after becoming the wealthiest person in the world. I stand beside a luxury car I bought for my father and call him—I want him to be surprised when he picks me up. However, this backfires on me. I joke with him and tell him my company has gone bankrupt. My debtors are coming after me, so I'm home to flee from them. I end up standing under the sweltering sun until the sky goes dark and it starts to pour—my father never shows up to see his gift. I brave the rain as I head home. Before I even enter the house, I can sense my sister-in-law's panic. "Listen to me—don't tell that jinx that Dad has just won a million dollars!" My mother says, "I knew having a daughter was a bad decision. It's bad enough that she doesn't have money for us—why is she coming home when she's in trouble? She should just die out there!" My father sneers. "Well, we can sell her off to that cripple in the village. Maybe she'll fetch a good price!"

Out on a holiday with my boyfriend, Jack, and my good friend, Eva, a catastrophe occurred. As the floods came, we waited for the rescue helicopter to come. As I fastened the safety rope, I noticed that my metal safety clip had been swapped for a plastic ring. Climbing up the rope ladder, Jack said nonchalantly, "Eva's luggage is heavy. She needs another safety clip, so I gave her yours. You can wait for the next rescue." I replied in a panic, pointing at the water level already past my chest, "But I can't swim!" Jack replied irritatedly, "Naomi, stop causing a scene! You're a strong swimmer, what's a little time in the water? Eva is my boss's relative. If something happens to her, my promotion is gone. Why can't you understand that?" "Which matters more? My life or her luggage?" I reached for the rope ladder when he kicked my hand away. "I've studied the waters. The flood won't rise so quickly. It will at most be at the level of your neck. You won't die!" I said nothing further. Watching the floods rise crazily, I quickly pressed my family's special alarm on my wrist.

After my son’s surgery, I stayed overnight at the hospital. While keeping watch, I scrolled through my phone and came across a post. [What’s the worst thing you’ve ever done?] An anonymous user replied. [I used the senior who sponsored me as a stepping stone.] [My sponsor was rich and clueless. He paid for my entire college education, and after I graduated, I slept with his wife. She even had my child.] [The best part is that he treats my son like his own. He works himself to exhaustion just to set that kid up for life.] [By the way, his family just received three million from the relocation compensation. My lover will be here soon. She’ll pretend we need it for a school district apartment and trick him into giving it to us.] [Once the cash is in hand and the villa is bought, I’ll have my son acknowledge me as his real father and then throw my sponsor out of the house.] A blurry photo of a little boy was attached. My heart skipped a beat. On his wrist was the safety charm I had given my son. Just then, my wife pushed open the hospital room door. “Honey, Xeno is starting elementary school soon. Let’s take your mom’s compensation money from the relocation and use it to buy a place in a good school district.”

I lucked out, securing a guaranteed admission spot at Westbridge University—the one the real heiress throws away. Nicole Stewart drops out for love and runs off with the school's bully, shattering what should've been her perfect life. Meanwhile, I'm branded a thief, accused of stealing her place. However, I fight my way up to become a powerhouse in business and even marry her childhood sweetheart, Spencer Lowe. Yet, at the peak of it all, I open my eyes to find myself back to graduation day of senior year, right when I'm filling out my choices of colleges. A live barrage of comments flashes before my eyes. "That fake heiress, Gloria Stewart, is nothing but a thief. She stole Nicole's life!" "In her last life, Nicole actually dropped out of school to start a business with some school bully. She even gave her childhood sweetheart, who was her fiance, to someone else! Ugh, she's so stupid and pathetic." "Good thing Nicole gets a second chance. This time, the real heiress has awakened, so let's just see how miserable that fake heiress who stole her life becomes!" I just smile at the scrolling insults. Sorry, but I carve my own path. Nicole can be reborn a hundred times, and she still can't stop me from rising to the top.

Après ma renaissance, j'ai décidé de mettre fin à toute relation avec Jacques, mon compagnon de destin avec qui j'ai grandi. Quand il a organisé une fête à Hawaï pour tous les guérisseurs de la tribu, j'ai pris l'avion pour San Diego. Il a dit que mon odeur lui donnait la nausée, à lui et à son loup, alors j'ai immédiatement déménagé et dépensé 500 euros pour faire nettoyer la maison en profondeur. Il a exigé que je ne me présente plus jamais dans sa tribu. J'ai volontairement abandonné mon poste de guérisseuse privée de l'Alpha et suis partie travailler à temps partiel à la ville centrale pour subvenir à mes besoins. Enfin, il a dit que ma présence risquait de faire croire à sa bien-aimée petite demi-sœur qu'il éprouvait des sentiments pour moi. J'ai acquiescé, puis j'ai accepté la demande en mariage de l'Alpha de la ville centrale. J'ai accepté la dot et j'ai emménagé dans une villa d'une valeur de dix-huit millions d'euros. J'ai rejeté l'amour humble et obséquieux de ma vie précédente, et j'ai choisi de faire des transactions rationnelles et lucides. Après tout, dans ma vie précédente, j'avais tout sacrifié, ma fortune et ma vie, mais Jacques ne m'avait offert que trahison. Quand sa petite demi-sœur avait été empoisonnée, il m'avait traitée de meurtrière et m'avait condamnée à mourir sous la torture de la tribu pour crime. Cette fois, je comptais bien vivre ma vie. Et lorsque je tenais la main de l'Alpha lors de la fête de Pleine Lune, Jacques s'est soudainement dressé devant moi, les yeux injectés de sang. « Amina, reste avec moi, et je te pardonnerai ta décision incorrecte. » J'ai souri avec ironie : « Peux-tu te permettre la villa que mon Alpha m'a achetée ? »

Ikaw lang ang nakakaalam ng totoong Shintaro Terrano… Ikaw lang ang hahayaan kong makaalam.”
