Solo Leveling Monsters

Mi prometido, Victor Blackwood, es el Don de la mafia que controla el bajo mundo de todo el país con mano de hierro. Para los demás, él es la personificación del poder. Pero para mí… era el amor hecho hombre. Nunca imaginé el precio de amar a un hombre como él. En el Día de San Valentín preparé sus comidas favoritas y lo esperé en casa. Sin embargo, las horas pasaron, el vino se enfrió… y su silla seguía vacía. Con un mal presentimiento, abrí la red social de Queenie Stone, su «hermana adoptiva», quien había publicado: «Solo bastó que le dijera que me sentía sola… para que viniera enseguida. Incluso, aunque derramé vino sobre él, no se enojó. Victor siempre ha sido así… La familia para él es lo primero, aunque eso signifique dejar a su novia esperando. Nunca me falla. Ojalá nada cambie». En la foto, la camisa de Victor estaba empapada a la altura de la cintura, y el pañuelo de Queenie descansaba de manera peligrosa cerca de su entrepierna… Él ni siquiera se había apartado… sino que solo la miraba con ternura. No hice ningún escándalo. Solo le di «me gusta» a su publicación y luego le envié un simple mensaje: «Terminamos.» Pero como siempre… lo ignoró. Después supe que, al ver mi mensaje, él se limitó a comentar: —Vivienne no puede vivir sin mí. Solo está haciendo un berrinche. Si la ignoro un par de días, volverá arrastrándose. Es fácil de contentar. Lo que él no sabía… era que yo solo era fácil porque lo amaba. Pero ahora que decidí irme, no hay vuelta atrás… No importa lo que haga.

Mi novio insistió en escalar de noche la montaña nevada para ver la cascada. Ese mismo día, resbalé y caí desde la cima. Al despertar, descubrí que no solo sufría amnesia, sino que también había perdido una pierna. Incluso mi novio se había convertido en el esposo de mi hermana. De repente, todos me abandonaron. Solo Samuel, mi psicólogo, me guió con paciencia y cuidado. Cuando me propuso matrimonio con flores y un anillo frente a todo el personal médico, creí ver al ángel que había venido a salvarme. Pero seis meses después de casarnos, lo escuché por casualidad hablando con su amigo: —Samuel, parece que la hipnosis de este año ha sido un éxito. Ya ayudaste a Valeria a obtener lo que quería, ¿para qué dar un paso más y casarte con Sofía? —¿Crees que lo deseaba? Es solo por si recupera la memoria y podría hacerle daño a Valeria. Así la vigilo de cerca. —¿Merece la pena hacer tanto por Valeria? Ya antes limpiaste todos sus desastres, ¿y ahora usas a Sofía para eso…? —Haría lo que fuera con tal de ver feliz a Valeria. Samuel apagó el cigarrillo con fuerza y, tras un largo silencio, respondió lentamente: —Además, solo es prestar un vientre… ¡Aprovechar lo inservible!

Cuando yo estaba embarazada de cuatro meses, mi esposo médico me dejó plantada 16 veces cuando íbamos a registrar nuestro matrimonio. La primera vez, su amante, la enfermerita Lucía, se desmayó por la sangre durante una cirugía. Esperé todo el día frente a la oficina de registro. La segunda vez, recibió una llamada de Lucía. Me abandonó en el puente elevado solo para comprarle toallas sanitarias. Cada vez que intentábamos registrar el matrimonio, su amante encontraba una nueva excusa. La última vez, escuché que él estaba enfermo. Corrí al hospital bajo la lluvia torrencial, solo para descubrir que era la Lucía quien estaba enferma. Él permaneció a su lado sin moverse, mientras me mentía descaradamente por teléfono. En ese momento, comencé a odiarlo. Decidí abortar y marcharme. Pero él recorrió medio mundo, persiguiéndome hasta otro país, solo para suplicarme perdón.
