Blurb: Nang malaman ni Kana Marie Ramirez Palma na bilang na lang ang araw niya sa mundong ibabaw, nagpasya siyang i-enjoy na lang ang sarili sa pamamagitan ng pag-travel. At hindi niya inaasahang makikilala si John Serrano sa isang bar sa Malaysia. At dito niya ipinagkaloob ang matagal na niyang iniingatang perlas. Para sa kanya, para saan pa ang iniingatan kung kukunin na siya ni kamatayan? Si Master Sergeant John Serrano ay isang sundalo na kasalukuyang may misyon sa bansang Malaysia. Pero napagbintangan siya sa isang kasalanang hindi naman ginawa. Nakulong siya ng dalawang taon ngunit nakalaya din para sa isang misyon- ang maging personal bodyguard ng anak ng isang Chief of Staff ng Pinas at ng Bilyonaryang. Ano kaya ang magiging reaksyon ni John kapag nalamang ang babaeng inaakalang nasa langit na ang kanyang magiging amo?

Peter Cooper lives in the town of Capistrano. After being dumped by girlfriend Amelia his friend James arranges a job at Trans-Port, bossed by the famous Professor William Carver. Carver’s assistant is an American woman called Claire. Peter is pressurised into being a guinea pig for the company’s teleportation experiments and gets sent to another reality ‘The Projection’. On returning he's told Trans-Port have mentally imprisoned him in Capistrano slnce ten. The programme is a wormhole to another reality and Peter is forced to go back there and bring home its creator, his brilliant scientist father John, so Trans-Port's teleportation system can work successfully. The Projection is only programmed for John and Peter’s DNA. Peter finds the alternate reality called ‘Guildford’ similar to Capistrano but landscape and identities have changed. He meets another ‘Claire’, now English. She helps him find his ‘parents’ who informed his doppelganger (Other Peter) is a successful scientist, married to Amelia and working for Kilgore Industries in ‘Cambridge’. They are also building a teleportation device. Realising 'his' John might have gone there, Peter follows. At Kilgore he finds another ‘James’, now ‘Other Peter’s’ Project Manager. He pretends to be his doppleganger's non-existent brother to find out about an 'accident' on the site. That night a dream shows ‘Other Peter’ involved in a metaphysical reaction to the accident. John asks Peter to help him find out more about it. They force Amelia to take them to ‘Other Peter’ at Kilgore. They find him trapped between two states of reality just like Peter’s dream. Peter forces John to return to Capistrano but Carver appears telling him neither realty actually exists. The accident killed Peter and he is now purely cyber intelligence. But is this true? Can Peter’s REAL life still be saved?

Late one night after getting off work, I was scrolling through my company group chat when a colleague shared a piece of news. The headline was horrifying. "Night-Shift Courier Murdered During Delivery, Police Suspect Robbery." I zoomed in on the crime scene photo that had been partially pixelated, and a chill ran straight down my spine. Lying in a pool of blood, the courier who had been hacked to death was unmistakably me. I had scrolled into news of my own death. Almost at the same time, my delivery app began vibrating violently. "Urgent pickup! Destination: Unit 704 Hawthorne Ridge Apartments, Building 7. Time limit: 15 minutes. Penalty for timeout: Death." As I stared at the notification that read "Pickup failed three times", the searing pain of my brutal death surged through my body. So that was it. I had already died three times. When I forced open the half-closed security door of 704 for the fourth time, a thin delivery envelope lay quietly inside. I tore it open. A photograph slipped out. It was a picture of my dismembered body. The timestamp showed tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. On the back was a single line written in fresh blood: "Next time, remember to pick it up on time." At that moment, the red indicator light on the hallway surveillance camera suddenly went dark. I looked up. From the ventilation opening in the exact same spot, a single eye was staring straight at me. The mole at the corner of that eye was identical to mine.

Di hari ulang tahun anak dari Kakak Ipar john yang sudah menjanda, Peter, anak kami tak sengaja makan satu suapan kue lebih awal. John meledak marah. Dia langsung melempar putra kami ke dalam ruang bawah tanah. “Kok kamu selalu mau merebut dari Leo? Bahkan di hari ulang tahunnya pun, kamu juga membuatnya menangis! Hanya gara-gara sepotong kue, emangnya kamu itu setan kelaparan?” Kemudian, dia melakban mulut Peter rapat-rapat. “Diam di sini dan renungkan kesalahanmu! Tiga hari kemudian baru boleh keluar!” Ruang bawah tanah itu gelap gulita tanpa setitik cahaya pun, bahkan sering ada laba-laba beracun. Peter tak akan sanggup bertahan meski hanya setengah hari di sana. Aku menangis tersedu-sedu, memohon padanya untuk memaafkan Peter, tapi John sama sekali tak bergeming. “Trik apalagi yang mau kamu mainkan? Sudah berapa kali kubilang, Kakak Ipar membesarkan anaknya sendirian itu nggak mudah. Aku meminta kamu lebih pengertian, tapi bukannya nurut, kamu malah makin menjadi-jadi menindas mereka!” Aku berlutut dan mencengkeram ujung celananya, berjanji bahwa setelah ini kami akan benar-benar menghilang dari hadapan mereka, asalkan dia mau melepaskan Peter. John menyentakkan kakinya hingga peganganku terlepas, lalu menendangku sampai tersungkur. Dia berkata dengan dingin, “Kalau kamu memang nggak bisa jauh-jauh dari Peter, sana ikut merenungkan diri bersamanya! Tiga hari lagi, aku akan mengantar Kakak Ipar dan anaknya keluar negeri. Kalian baru boleh keluar setelah benar-benar tak bisa menindas mereka lagi.” Setelah mengantar Kakak Ipar dan anaknya keluar negeri untuk menikmati hidup, akhirnya John teringat padaku dan Peter. Namun, saat dia sudah memilihkan kado dan hendak menjemput kami, dia malah menerima telepon dari asistennya. “Nyonya dan Tuan Muda … sudah hilang!”

‘네가 되면 네가 해’라는 시스템이 탄생했다. “만약 누군가가 잘 못살고 있다고 생각되고 본인이 그 사람보다 더 잘할 수 있으면 상금을 획득하게 됩니다.” 딸만 바라보는 엄마, 가족의 책임을 회피하는 남편, 나를 창피하게 여기는 아들이 함께 나를 심판석에 올리길 바랐다. 세 사람은 모두 그들이 나라면 나보다 더 잘했을 것이라고 말했다. 만약 세 사람이 실제로 더 잘한다면, 나는 그들의 노예가 될 것이고, 그들은 사람마다 5억 원의 상금을 받게 된다. 반대면 나는 앉아서 15억을 받게 된다.

I had my meal and was about to leave my sister's restaurant, but the manager stopped me. "Sorry, sir, but you haven't paid your tab." I never saw this guy before. He probably had no idea who I was. Kindly, I explained, "Put it on your boss' tab. She knows what to do." The manager instead gave me a look of derision. "Sir, we're a 3-star Michelin restaurant. We do not put anyone's bill on another person's tab." He handed me an itemized bill. The guy had it ready and printed. I went through the list. The meal alone cost 75 grand. The 'dining utensil gleam maintenance fee' ran up to 45 hundred. There was also an exclusive air purifier fee, which would cost 75 hundred. And there was a 'VIP calm headspace service fee' that ran up to 15 grand. Those were the ones that stood out, but they were far from the last. I had no idea my sister was running an extortion gig. Mirthlessly, I laughed. "I'm your boss' brother. Tell her she's talking to me when she comes home." The manager did not let me go. "Just say you can't afford it. You're not the first one to try and claim you know Ms. Grayheim. I know leeches like you well enough." I texted my secretary. 'Tell my sister she either fires this guy, or I pull my funds out.'
