¿Hasta dónde puede llegar alguien con dinero? Mi esposo tenía tanto que, en Bruma, le decían Medio Bruma, ya que casi la mitad de la ciudad es suya. Llevábamos cinco años casados; cada vez que se iba a acompañar a su amor de toda la vida, me traspasaba una casa. Cuando a mi nombre ya había noventa y nueve, él notó que yo había cambiado. Ya no lloré ni supliqué, simplemente me limité a escoger la mejor mansión de la ciudad, preparé la escritura y esperé a que él la firmara. Cuando lo hizo, su voz se le ablandó al prometer: —Cuando regrese, te llevaré a ver los fuegos artificiales. Guardé los papeles y asentí. Lo único que no le conté fue que: lo que acababa de firmar esa vez no era una casa más, sino… nuestro acuerdo de divorcio.

Mi amigo de la infancia me había prometido que, al graduarnos de la universidad, se casaría conmigo. Pero el día de nuestra boda llegó tarde y, cuando por fin lo encontramos, estaba en una cama de hotel, enredado con mi hermanastra, Viviana Torres. Ante todos los presentes, fue el heredero del hombre más rico del país, Sebastián Fuentes, quien dio un paso al frente y declaró, sin reservas, que yo había sido la mujer que amó en secreto durante muchos años. Llevábamos cinco años de matrimonio. Cada palabra que alguna vez dije, Sebastián la guardó en su corazón. Yo creía, de verdad, que era la persona que él más valoraba en el mundo. Hasta que un día, mientras hacía los quehaceres de la casa, encontré por accidente un documento confidencial oculto en el fondo de su escritorio. La primera página era el currículum de Viviana Torres. Sobre él, escrito de su puño y letra, se leía: “Atención prioritaria. Por encima de todo.” Luego venía un expediente médico que nunca había visto. La fecha correspondía exactamente a la noche en que sufrí aquel accidente automovilístico. Esa vez fui llevada al hospital perteneciente al Grupo Fuentes, pero la cirugía nunca llegaba. Cuando desperté, el bebé que llevaba en mi vientre ya no estaba conmigo, perdido por la hemorragia. Lloré hasta quedarme sin voz en los brazos de Sebastián, pero jamás le conté la verdad. No quería causarle más preocupación. Pero ahora lo sé: esa misma noche Viviana también resultó herida, y la orden que Sebastián envió al hospital fue: “Movilicen a todos los especialistas. Prioridad absoluta para Viviana Torres.” Las lágrimas se filtraron entre las páginas, borrando parte de la tinta. “Si no soy tu máxima prioridad, entonces desapareceré de tu mundo.”

"Pwede bang ako naman, Blaze? Pwede bang ako naman ang piliin mo?” nagmamakaawang wika ni Jane sa harapan ni Blaze. “Don't get me wrong, nagpakasal ako sa 'yo hindi dahil kamukha mo na si Gizelle kundi para manahimik na ang mga magulang natin. Kahit pagbali-baliktarin mo man ang utak ko, si Gizelle pa rin ang mamahalin ko. Siya at siya lang. Apelyido ko lang ang gamit mo pero kahit kailan hindi mo ako magiging pagmamay-ari! ” Para kay Jane, ang pagsusuot ng maskara lamang ang tanging sagot upang tanggapin siya ng lalaking mahal niya. Ngunit kailan nga ba siya matatanggap? Hanggang saan ang kaya niyang tiisin? Hanggang saan pa ang kaya niyang gawin sa ngalan ng pag-ibig? Hanggang kailan siya magpapanggap bilang ibang tao? May patutunguhan pa rin kaya ang pagmamahal niya para kay Blaze?

En la etapa terminal de mi insuficiencia renal, mi esposo le dio a mi hermana menor el único riñón que se adaptaba a mí.

Le entregué a mi hermana menor toda la fortuna que había construido durante estos años y, por fin, pude ver a mis padres sonreírme. Mi esposo quería cuidarla día y noche sin descanso. Pero yo solo no me enojé, sino que le aconsejé que fuera muy atento con ella. Incluso, cuando mi hijo dijo que quería que mi hermana fuera su mamá, también asentí sonriendo. Todo salió como ellos querían... entonces, ¿por qué ahora se arrepentían?
