Pumipintig Na Ugat Sa Ulo

Ang ampon ng aking ama ay ikinulong lamang sa masikip na storage closet nang halos labinlimang minuto, ngunit tinalian niya ako at itinapon sa loob bilang parusa. Tinakpan pa niya ang ventilation gamit ang mga tuwalya. "Bilang nakatatandang kapatid ni Wendy, kung hindi mo siya kayang alagaan, marapat lamang na maranasan mo rin ang takot na naramdaman niya,” seryoso niyang sabi. Alam niyang may claustrophobia ako, ngunit ang aking mga desperadong pakiusap, ang aking matinding takot, ay sinagot lang ng malupit na sermon. "Magsilbi sana itong aral sayo para maging mabuting kapatid." Nang tuluyang lamunin ng kadiliman ang huling hibla ng liwanag, nakakaawa akong nagpumiglas. Isang linggo ang lumipas bago muling naalala ng aking ama na may anak pa siyang nakakulong at nagpasya siyang tapusin na ang aking parusa. "Sana'y naging magandang aral sa iyo ang isang linggong ito, Jennifer. Kung mangyayari pa ito muli, hindi ka na pwedeng manatili sa bahay na ito." Ngunit kailanman ay hindi niya malalaman na matagal ko nang nalanghap ang aking huling hininga sa nakakasulasok na silid na iyon. Sa kadiliman, unti-unti nang nabubulok ang aking katawan.

A hell-recycle world within the modern world, designed for death or near-death individuals. With the greenhouse effect resulting in instability in hell, access to hell becomes restricted, and the game keeps the new souls busy while offering them a second chance to return to their lives before death, depending on their performance.

This story contains graphic adult themes, including explicit sexual content, psychological tension, dark humour, trauma, and scenes of coercion and moral ambiguity. It explores mature, disturbing, and emotionally intense situations within a fantasy-system setting. Reader discretion is strongly advised.

No instante em que eu renasci, a primeira coisa que eu fiz foi espalhar as "cinzas" da minha melhor amiga, Helen Doyle. Na última vida, ela engravidou antes do casamento e foi abandonada tanto pelo namorado quanto pela própria família. Lutou sozinha até o fim da gestação e, depois de sofrer horrores durante o parto, teve uma hemorragia massiva na sala de cirurgia. Com o último fio de vida, ela me implorou que eu adotasse o filho dela. Eu aceitei por pena. Para criá-lo, eu me atrasei nos estudos e fui obrigada a abandonar a escola. Sem escolha, eu levava meu filho adotivo, Aidan Sutton, comigo para o trabalho, suportando humilhações e olhares frios por onde passava. Por fim, quando ele fez dezoito anos, um olheiro descobriu o talento dele. Depois de um filme, ele virou sensação da noite para o dia e ainda levou o prêmio de Melhor Ator. Na cerimônia, Helen, que eu tinha visto morrer dezoito anos antes, entrou de braços dados com meu ex-namorado, Joe Shepherd. Fiquei tão atônita que, quando recobrei os sentidos, já tinha avançado para confrontá-la. Helen só me encarou e sorriu. — Parabéns. Você passou no teste. Eu ainda estava em choque quando Joe explicou, cheio de orgulho: — Helen é a filha do homem mais rico. Vai saber se você não se aproximou dela por dinheiro, né? Ele continuou, como se estivesse me fazendo um favor gigantesco: — Já que você criou bem o nosso filho, pode ser uma amiga comum dela. Se você criar ele até ele casar e ter filhos, aí sim você pode virar a melhor amiga da Helen. Minha cabeça explodiu. Como se eu quisesse ser amiga dela! Aquilo tinha sido dezoito anos da minha vida! Consumida por raiva e dor, com os olhos injetados de sangue, eu avancei nos dois. Mas Aidan correu do palco naquele instante e me empurrou com força. — Como ousa machucar meus pais? A raiva subiu direto para minha cabeça, e eu apaguei ali mesmo. Quando abri os olhos de novo… eu estava de volta ao dia em que Helen entrou em trabalho de parto.

Durante el ataque vampírico en la frontera, tanto yo como la amiga de la infancia de mi compañero nos vimos atrapadas en el campamento. Sin dudarlo un segundo, mi compañero, Damon, se transformó en lobo y la rescató. A mí me dejó sola, enfrentando un infierno de llamas y la embestida de los vampiros. Al día siguiente, solicité formalmente al consejo de ancianos de la manada que se rompiera nuestro vínculo. Él, con el rostro sombrío, me increpó: —Tienes la sangre de sacerdotisa que te permite sanarte. Lydia es más vulnerable. Por eso la salvé primero. ¿Acaso tienes celos de eso? Lo miré con serenidad y respondí: —Bueno, ahora ya no importa.
