To my relief, Farrow finally answered. The sounds of expensive jazz and clinking glasses bled through the receiver. His voice was cold as ice. "What is it this time, Grace?" "Farrow... help me..." He cut me off before I could finish. "Listen, Betty's book launch is tomorrow night. If you dare cause a scene or embarrass the Family, I'll disown you. I'll ship you off to a convent in Sicily." The line went dead. A moment later, a second splash of acid hit my face, and the searing agony consumed me. My eyes were gone, leaving nothing but hollow, bloody sockets. You don't need to exile me, Farrow. I'm already gone. Forever.

เรื่องราวความรักของเพื่อนที่แอบหลงรักเพื่อนสนิทตัวเองแต่ไม่กล้าบอกเพราะกลัวจะมองหน้ากันไม่ติด

Minha sogra sofreu um acidente de carro e foi levada para a sala de emergência. Liguei mais de vinte vezes para meu marido advogado até que ele finalmente atendeu. — O que você está aprontando de novo? Mirella teve um problema, estou ajudando aqui, para de me incomodar à toa. Segurei minha mágoa e contei que sua mãe sofrera um acidente, pedindo que transferisse cem mil reais. Mas ele, acreditando nas palavras de Mirella, respondeu com grosseria: — O que o acidente da sua mãe tem a ver comigo? Nem pense em tirar dinheiro de mim para ajudar sua família. Não me incomode, estou ocupado. A ligação foi abruptamente encerrada. A sogra não resistiu e veio a falecer. Três dias depois, na audiência, vi meu marido advogado defendendo com eloquência a ex-namorada, acusada de dirigir embriagada. Ele alegou falta de provas e conseguiu que Mirella fosse absolvida. Desolada, após a audiência, pedi o divórcio. Ele entrou em pânico. — Minha mãe sempre te tratou tão bem, se você se divorciar de mim, ela vai ficar arrasada! Ri friamente, jogando na cara dele o comprovante do hospital e o atestado de óbito. Idiota, ele ainda não sabia que já não tinha mais mãe.
