Once There Was An Ugly Barnacle

I once thought Jareth was the love of my life. He said "Mom's in the hospital," but then turned around and kissed Lily in the VIP seats at the concert; when his bipolar disorder flared up, he was violent with me, but then told Lily, "You’re such a good girl"; he had videos with Lily saved on his phone, and in the chat records, he called me "the cold, emotionless finance robot." Five years of love, ruined in his lies and betrayals. He thought I would cry and scream, but all I did was watch him finish his final act. When he knelt on the ground and said, "I was wrong," what I handed him was the merger agreement: "Sign it. This is the first debt you owe me." Those broken hearts will eventually turn into sharp blades that will pierce him. And I will rise from the ruins, living more beautifully than anyone else.

“Hindi na sapat ang pagmamahal lang.” Para kay Dean, masaya na siya at kuntento sa tahimik at simple na buhay na mayroon sila ng kanyang asawa na si Niah. Isang klase ng buhay na kasulangat ng kanyang kinagisnan. Ngunit hindi niya inakalang hindi ganoon ang nararamdaman ng kanyang asawa. Niah wants a luxurious and extravagant life. Isang bagay na hindi kaagad maibibigay ni Dean. Kaya noong makahanap ng lalaking magbibigay sa kanya ng buhay na pinapangarap, kaagad na nagdisisyon si Niah na hiwalayan ang asawa. She filed a divorce, dumped Dean, and hooked up with a rich man. Masakit iyon para kay Dean, pero hinayaan niya ang asawa sa kagustuhan nito. He loves Niah so much that he can do everything for her. Kaya noong inakala ng lahat na bumitaw na siya, doon siya kumilos at gumawa ng paraan. And what he did gradually surprised everyone, including his wife. Sa unti-unti niyang pagpapakita ng kanyang kakayahan bilang isang asawa at lalaki, dahan-dahan niya ring ipinakilala ang kanyang tunay na sarili. Would his wife, Niah, come back to him? And if she does, would he still accept her? Or would he move on upon realizing that his wife only loves him because of the things that he could give, and not because she loves him genuinely?

My husband and I have been married for a decade. When I finally conceive for the first time in ten years, I realize my worst enemies are my family, who all want me dead. I've made a promise to return to the fertility shrine on the mountain and fulfill my vow if things work out, but my mother-in-law deliberately messes up the cable car tickets. In the process of hiking up the mountain for two hours, I lose my baby. In the hospital, I cry to my husband about all the vicious things his mother has done to me, but he kicks me in the stomach. "I had a vasectomy a long time ago. There's no way that bastard inside you is mine!" When he hands me the proof, I'm completely speechless. I break down in tears and run back to my parents' place. Not only do my parents hire a nanny to help take care of me, but they even move out of the house so I can rest in tranquility. When I'm eight months pregnant, I overhear them whispering in the bathroom. "We can never let Gina have the baby. I don't care if it kills her—we're all screwed if the child is born!" "Relax. The doctor already told me that Gina's got leukemia from all the formaldehyde in our new house. Even the baby's deformed!" Shocked, I burst into the bathroom to confront them, but the slippery floor causes me to fall hard. Instantly, blood snakes across the tiles. As I lie there in pain, I look up and see the cold, twisted smiles on my parents' faces before taking my last breath. I cannot fathom why my family wants me dead. I thought they'd been looking forward to his baby for a decade. When I open my eyes again, I return to the very day my mother-in-law insists on taking me to the mountain.
