Karma Akabane Aesthetic

My husband sends me a photo of our obedient daughter holding a plate of food. He writes, "Thanks to my patient guidance, our sweetheart has finally made her first dish! We're waiting for you to come home and taste it!" The exhaustion I feel from work is swept away when I see that. No one expects that I'll reach home half an hour later and kill him.

"Aku sudah membayarmu, jadi kamu adalah milikku. Mau aku menciummu ataupun berbuat lebih dari itu, kamu tak berhak menolaknya," tekanku pada Yumna yang wajahnya tampak merah padam. Alina hanya diam, berdiri di pojok lift dengan menatap ke arah lain. Ya, dia selalu tahu diri bagaimana harus bersikap. "Ya aku tahu! Apa perlu Anda mengul9angnya lagi dan lagi?!" Dia masih terus bicara. Merasa muak, aku mendekat dan kembali mengulang perbuatan yang sangat dibencinya, untuk menutup mulut Yumna. Sementara Alina jadi salah tingkah dan membalik badan melihat kami.

Everyone loved my older sister. When the novel I wrote shot to popularity, she got jealous and suddenly proclaimed that she wanted to be a popular author too. My older brother, who was the editor-in-chief, immediately announced that I plagiarized my sister's story at my book signing and she ended up becoming the genius author while I got cyberbullied so much that I was too scared to leave the house. After I got married to a young heir from high society and lived a happy life, my sister told me that she had a crush on him for years and wanted to be his bride at least once in her lifetime. He did not even think twice about divorcing me and holding the wedding of the century with my sister. My family was afraid that I would sabotage their relationship, so they made me leave the country. However, my sister did not think that I was miserable enough. She came for me outside the country and pushed me down the stairs. I was lying in a pool of blood when my mother rebuked me, "Did you say something that made your sister unhappy again?" That was how I died in despair. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day my brother accused me of plagiarism.

My dormmate, Summer Lodge, always uses heavy-duty electrical appliances to cook in our dorm. I kindly remind her that it's a fire hazard and that she'll get a demerit if the college finds her out, but she snaps at me and tells me to mind my own business. One day, her oven bursts into flames and burns one of our dormmates—the daughter of an affluent family—to death. When the college investigates the matter to apportion the blame, Summer and another dormmate push the blame on me. I'm expelled and cyberbullied. My dead dormmate's boyfriend even comes after me for revenge. He shoves me and my family into the furnace at a crematorium. When I open my eyes again, I'm back to the day when Summer decides to make a meal with the oven.

Clara Favietra hanya ingin memergoki suaminya yang berselingkuh. Namun ia justru berakhir di ranjang yang salah. Seorang pria pewaris dunia gelap yang menyembunyikan identitas di balik profesinya sebagai dokter. Saat Clara berusaha kabur dari dosa semalam, sebuah tragedi justru mengikatnya pada takdir pernikahan yang penuh sandiwara. "Kenapa? Apa aku membuatmu sedalam itu?"

Belakangan ini, teman sebangkuku selalu menatapku dengan tatapan aneh. Setiap kali aku ke kantin atau ke lapangan, semuanya menghindariku. Aku akhirnya tidak tahan lagi dan bertanya kepada teman sebangkuku, "Sebenarnya apa salahku? Kenapa kamu menjauhiku?" Dia ketakutan hingga mundur beberapa langkah, lalu menyahut tanpa berani menatapku, "Nggak ada kok. Ini bukan salahmu." Kemudian, dia memilih untuk pindah kelas, dari kelas plus menjadi kelas reguler. Aku lantas mencarinya untuk memperjelas semuanya. Aku datang ke kelasnya. Dia awalnya sedang mengobrol dengan teman barunya. Begitu melihatku, dia sontak berseru kaget, "Aku serius. Ini bukan salahmu. Tolong jangan mencariku lagi. Kumohon!"

After being reincarnated as the villain in a story where everyone doted on the heroine, the system appeared. It told me that if I could win over any one of the male leads, I would regain a healthy body and return to my original world. But I failed to win over any of them. There was my adoptive brother, the fake heir, who grew up with me. My rebellious high school deskmate, the real heir, who became a boxer. And my childhood sweetheart, the genius surgeon. Even my own son, whom I carried for ten months. Without exception, they all fell in love with that cold, stubborn damsel while growing to deeply despise me. The system sighed and told me that if I could die at the hands of any one of the male leads, I would be able to see my parents in the original world. In the end, I used every method possible and was finally killed by them, with their own hands. But why did they all go mad afterward?
