No dia do meu casamento com Felipe Torres, a filha adotiva da família Torres ameaçou se jogar de um prédio. Para salvá-la, Felipe me abandonou no altar, vestida de noiva, e fugiu da cerimônia. Diante dos olhares zombeteiros de todos os convidados, anunciei publicamente: — Quem subir aqui e se casar comigo hoje, terá a mim como esposa! Três anos depois, Felipe retornou à casa da família Torres com sua irmã adotiva. Eu estava sentada em um sofá de couro, tomando um consommé e assistindo a uma série. Felipe encarou meu ventre protuberante, rangendo os dentes. — De quem é esse bastardo na sua barriga? Tomei um gole do consommé e sorri levemente. — O filho que carrego é, obviamente, um herdeiro da família Torres.

Casada há cinco anos, Luísa jamais imaginou que o próprio marido teria coragem de pedir que ela o "compartilhasse" com outra mulher. — Ela é muito importante para mim. Quero que você aceite a existência dela. — Disse ele. E ainda completou. — Contanto que você concorde, será para sempre a Sra. Monteiro. Ninguém jamais vai abalar a sua posição. Ela o conheceu quando estava no auge da desgraça. Rodrigo se casou com ela, a mimou, a encheu de cuidados. Luísa sempre acreditou que ninguém poderia amá-la mais do que ele. Mas agora descobria que tudo não passava de uma grande piada. Rodrigo nunca pensou que a mulher que ele havia cuidado com tanto carinho teria a ousadia de pedir o divórcio. Ele não a impediu, cedeu à teimosia dela, certo de que, ao não conseguir viver sem ele, ela voltaria para implorar seu retorno. Mas Luísa, apesar de ter um nome delicado, tinha um gênio forte. Preferiu se chocar contra a vida até sangrar, do que olhar para trás. — Você não consegue ceder, nem uma vez? — Perguntou ele. Mais tarde, Luísa cedeu. E foi justamente nessa vez que desapareceu por completo do mundo dele. Depois disso, Rodrigo, que nunca havia sentido medo antes, descobriu o que era estar aterrorizado. Mais adiante, Luísa apareceu diante dele de braços dados com outro homem. — Luísa, como você pode ser tão cruel? — Com os olhos vermelhos, Rodrigo disse, a encurralando contra a porta, tomado pela loucura da saudade.

Já passou da hora de ela aprender a lição. Fiquei presa na floresta, sobrevivendo nos refúgios de uma caverna. Logo, fui encurralada por animais selvagens. No fim, acabei sendo devorada viva, meu corpo ficou espalhado pela selva. Após a minha morte, ao ver a cena horripilante do meu cadáver, ele enlouqueceu.

The old house sat among flowers growing around all sides. The aroma of honeysuckle and jasmine fill my lungs filling me with a moment's peace. I’m sitting in my usual spot.

A noise can be heard from the back of the house. One of the shadows turns toward it. I jump down to follow only to have the other shadow hold me back. “Don’t go. Not yet. Listen to me!”
