Mãe Solteira

Casei-me com o mesmo homem sete vezes, e ele se divorciou de mim sete vezes — sempre pela mesma mulher, só para poder passar as férias com seu primeiro amor como um homem livre e também para poupá-la das fofocas do mundo. Na primeira vez, cortei meus pulsos num ato desesperado para fazê-lo ficar; uma ambulância me levou às pressas ao hospital, mas ele nunca apareceu para me ver. Na segunda vez, rebaixei-me para me candidatar a um cargo de assistente em sua empresa, apenas para poder vê-lo novamente, mesmo que de longe. Na sexta vez, já havia aprendido a empacotar minhas coisas em silêncio e a sair sozinha da casa que um dia foi nossa. Minhas crises de histeria, minhas concessões repetidas, minha resignação entorpecida — tudo o que recebi em troca foram seus casamentos pontuais, sempre seguidos pelos mesmos truques e pelas mesmas mentiras. Até agora: ao saber que seu primeiro amor estava prestes a voltar ao país, entreguei pessoalmente os papéis do divórcio em suas mãos. Como sempre, ele marcou a data do próximo casamento, sem imaginar que, desta vez, eu partiria para nunca mais voltar.

My brother and I have always been close, so close that sometimes I dress up like him so that we can hang out in all boys places and we can play twins. At first, it had been a problem especially because I had gone on a date with his girlfriend on his behalf because he was sick. He had been so pissed off but he got over it and over the time, it became fun for him too. It was all fun and games until my brother got sick and my parents had to send me to this town to leave with my grandmother while they travel the world looking for the best hospital for him. I don't know his illness, they never told me but I guess it's something serious. I miss my brother's presence so much that when I got to this new town, no one knows that I'm a girl, except my grandmother but I also hid my style of dressing from her. At home, I'm the perfect granddaughter but at school, I'm the drop dead gorgeous badboy that every girl wants to date. It was so cool, so cool and I was enjoying the attention until one day it all changed. The day I met him. Xavier Grey, the new transfer student and Teresa's -my girlfriend- cousin.

Sa isang mundong pinaghaharian ng yaman at kapangyarihan, ipinanganak si Elena Cruz sa kahirapan. Maganda siya—mala-porselanang kutis, brown ang mata, at may alindog na kahit sa simpleng ayos ay nakakakuha ng pansin. Pero sa likod ng ganda, puno ng sugat ang kanyang buhay—ama niyang lulong sa sugal at inang kasambahay sa pamilya ng mga Monteverde, isa sa pinakamayamang angkan sa bansa. Isang gabi, nagbago ang lahat. Sa desperasyon at gutom, nagnakaw ang kanyang ama mula sa mansion ng mga Monteverde—isang kasalanang nahuli sa CCTV. At nang mabunyag ito, nasira hindi lang ang tiwala, kundi pati ang buhay nilang mag-ina. Sa gitna ng kahihiyan, pagkakautang, at apoy na sumunog sa kanilang tahanan, namatay ang kanyang ina sa konsensya at pangamba, habang nagtatago naman ang ama. Walang ibang natira kay Elena kundi ang pangalang minantsahan ng kasalanan. Hanggang sa isang gabi, muling tumagpo ang landas nila ni Lance Monteverde—ang bilyonaryong CEO na anak ng among pinagsilbihan ng kanyang ina. Malamig, makapangyarihan, at walang pakialam sa pag-ibig. Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat, tila may kakaibang puwersang nagtulak sa kanya na iligtas si Elena mula sa kamay ng mga mapang-abusong nanghihingi ng utang. Kapalit ng kaligtasan, isang alok ang binitawan ni Lance: “Babayaran ko ang lahat ng utang mo, Elena. Pero may kapalit... ikaw.” Sa pagitan ng utang, galit, at pag-ibig na unti-unting tumutubo sa gitna ng poot—mapipilitan si Elena na maging asawa ng lalaking kinaiinisan at kinatatakutan niya… ang lalaking unti-unti ring matututo kung ano ang tunay na halaga ng pag-ibig at pagkatao. Ngunit sa mundo ng mga Monteverde, walang libre. At sa dulo ng bawat pangako, may kapalit na kalayaan.

Je suis morte le jour où je devais recevoir la médaille du service distingué de la meute. Trois heures après ma mort, mes parents, mon frère et mon compagnon venaient de terminer la fête de remise du diplôme qu'ils avaient organisée pour ma sœur. Pendant que ma sœur Élise publiait une photo de famille chaleureuse sur Instagram, j'étais enfermée dans notre sous-sol, appuyant sur mon téléphone avec ma langue pour appeler à l'aide. La seule personne qui a répondu était mon compagnon, Richard. Tout ce qu'il a dit, c'était : « Sophie, arrête de faire des histoires. La fête de remise du diplôme d'Élise est importante. Assez de crises de colère ! » C'était la quatre-vingt-dix-neuvième fois qu'ils faisaient cela. Je gisais dans une mare de mon propre sang, les poumons immobiles. Ils pensaient que je faisais juste une scène, que je me cachais quelque part, que s'ils me donnaient une leçon, je reviendrais en rampant. Mais ils ne savaient pas, j'étais à la maison tout ce temps. J'étais déjà morte.
