Tragedy

My mother was the best portrait artist in the police station. She had a strong sense of justice and brooked no evil. However, all I got was a sharp retort when I called her to save me. "You know it's your sister's coming-of-age celebration today, and you're cursing her? Kidnapped, are you? Fine, the kidnappers can kill you for all I care." She assumed it was a prank call. So, she refused to go to the police station and do her job. I wasn't saved in time and was tortured to death. When the DNA report came out, she came to the scene all wobbly. She drew a portrait of me with my bones as reference, her hand trembling all the way. "Jessica? It can't be her. This is a mistake!" She tried again and again. Yet, it didn't matter how many times she redid it as the portrait showed my face. My mother, who had hated me my whole life, teared up.

Five years had gone by since my death. The cops called my mom and told her they got news about me. My mother and brother marched to my grandmother's home and kicked her door down. "Where's Charlie? That shameless woman has been hiding from us far too long. Her brother needs her cornea, and she's giving it to him!" "Charlie's dead," said my grandmother, sobbing. My mother sneered. "As if. The cops called us. They said they had her news. Hand her over or get out of the house, you hag." My grandmother looked at her daughter, tears streaming down her cheeks. With trembling hands, she took my photo out. "I wonder if you've ever regretted saving your brother, Charlie."

Five years ago, my brother's fiancée died because of me. Five years later, I'm burned to a crisp and laid out on his autopsy table.

Klan iblis datang dan mengikatnya. Mereka berteriak pada Lian dan menunjuk-nunjuk wajahnya. "Kita bunuh wanita ini!" "Dia akan menyembuhkan Dewa Naga kuno, karena itu dia harus dimusnahkan!" "Bunuh saja dia!" "Wanita ini belum berkembang dan ilmu sihirnya masih sangat lemah, kita bakar saja dia!" "Lihat tanda Dewi di keningnya, dia adalah wanita yang ditakdirkan untuk mati!" Lian menggelengkan kepalanya, dia tidak mengerti apa maksud dari ucapan klan iblis. "Kenapa aku harus dimusnahkan? Apakah aku melakukan kesalahan? Sebenarnya apa dosaku? Aku baru saja berubah wujud...."
