Mad Season Above

Antes que a cerimônia de noivado aconteça, meu noivo, Vincenzo Rizzi, faz um anúncio formal no convés de um navio cargueiro atracado no novo porto. Aparentemente, minha meia-irmã mais nova, Sofia Russo, será sua esposa legítima. Vincenzo envolve a cintura de Sofia com um dos braços. Enquanto estão sob os holofotes, ele sorri para ela com ternura. "De acordo com as regras da máfia, apenas aquelas que receberam o reconhecimento dos anciãos principais podem se tornar a Madre da família. As outras não passam de amantes e concubinas." Sob as bênçãos dos anciãos da família, Vincenzo presenteia Sofia com um colar de diamantes negros. Em seguida, eles trocam votos e ficam oficialmente noivos. Eu apenas assisto à cerimônia em silêncio. Depois, marco uma consulta para fazer um aborto. Amei Vincenzo desde os meus 16 anos. Agora tenho 28, ou seja, o amo há 12 anos. Ainda assim, Sofia é a única que ele já amou. Nesse caso, escolho deixá-lo ir de uma vez por todas. Depois disso, viajo para um esconderijo secreto localizado em Sombral. Tudo o que deixo para Vincenzo é uma carta informando o fim do nosso noivado e um presente de despedida. Mas o homem que nunca demonstrou preocupação comigo durante todo esse tempo acaba desmoronando, a ponto de não ter nem ânimo para lidar com os assuntos da própria família.

On the day of the wedding, my fiancee, Bianca Newton, approached me with a bright smile, handing me a glass of wine. I drank it down in one gulp. Suddenly, her male best friend, Xander Lynch, raised his phone and burst out laughing. "See! I told you this idiot wouldn't even notice that it was my piss! Pay up, everyone! Don't forget to follow my account! Pay up!" I started puking uncontrollably, but Bianca merely looked at me with disgust. I demanded that Xander apologize, yet Bianca placed herself in front of him and stopped me. "It was just a joke! Why are you taking it so seriously?" At the same time, Xander said smugly, "Come on, say hello to the views in my livestream! Tell them how it feels to drink piss!" I smashed a wine bottle right on his head. Bianca demanded that I kneel and apologize to him. Then, she hurriedly escorted Xander to the hospital, still in her wedding gown. Looking at the wedding venue in utter chaos, I calmly took my phone out and dialed a number. "Are you interested in marrying me?"

The moment I was pushed into the river by my six stepbrothers and drowned there, I was still clutching a piece of candy my mom had given me. When I open my eyes again, I curl up in my swaddle as a one-month-old baby. That's when I notice six children glaring at me darkly with their hands outstretched, ready to strangle me. As I stare at them, I begin cursing them out mentally. "Just you wait till the day I can speak, you bastards!" My mom rushes out of the kitchen instantly. "It's a rare occasion for me to cook for the family, so I told you to keep an eye on your baby sister. Why are you cursing all of a sudden?" The brothers swap glances with each other in confusion. The oldest brother, Alex Finch, scratches his head. "You must be hearing things, Mom. We were about to play with Meadow. No one was speaking just now." Upon hearing Alex's shameless words, I continue cursing him out silently. "You're the most shameless bastard I've ever seen! When I'm three years old, you'll plot to sell me to an old single man in the countryside! Screw you!" Mom's hands tremble slightly at that moment. She quickly picks me up, her eyes as wide as saucers. I flash a toothless grin at her in return. "Don't be scared, Mom. This time, I'll definitely protect you!" Watch as I, a one-month-old baby, send my bastard of a father as well as the six ungrateful brats to prison!
