Tras 99 Perdones

박찬호에게 딸의 생일에 산에서 캠핑하자고 99번이나 부탁해서야 그는 겨우 허락했다. 다음 날 밤늦게 산 아래에서 딸을 찾았을 때, 그녀는 이미 죽어있었고 손에는 우리 가족을 그린 그림을 꼭 쥐고 있었다. 나는 딸의 시신 앞에서 통곡했지만, 박찬호는 오히려 SNS에 사진을 올렸다. ‘너와 아이는 나에게 보물 같은 존재야.’ 이 글과 함께 올린 사진 속에서 그는 그의 소꿉친구와 작은 여자애의 손을 잡고 일몰을 감상하고 있었다. 그리고 사진의 왼쪽 아래에는 작은 손이 보였는데 그건 내 딸의 손이었다. 이 잔혹한 사진은 내 딸이 찍은 것이었다.

Aku meninggal di hari aku memenangkan Penghargaan Doktor Medis Global. Tiga jam setelah kematianku, orang tua, kakak laki-laki, dan tunanganku baru saja pulang dari pesta ulang tahun ke-16 adik perempuanku. Ketika adikku mengunggah foto keluarga kami saat merayakan ulang tahunnya di media sosial, aku sedang terbaring di ruang bawah tanah yang tertutup rapat dan berlumuran darah. Aku mencoba menggunakan lidahku untuk menggeser layar ponsel dan meminta bantuan. Di antara kontak darurat, hanya tunanganku yang menjawab panggilanku. Artinya orang tua dan kakakku telah memblokir nomorku. Begitu telepon diangkat, tunanganku hanya mengucapkan satu kalimat, “Karin, pesta ulang tahun Lina yang ke-16 itu sangat penting. Jangan pakai alasan nggak masuk akal untuk cari perhatian kami dan bersikap manja lagi!” Dia menutup telepon dan memutus harapan terakhirku untuk bertahan hidup. Jantungku berhenti berdetak karena nada sibuk telepon. Ini adalah ke-100 kalinya mereka memilih adikku, ke-100 kalinya mereka mengabaikanku, mengecewakanku, dan ini juga yang terakhir. Aku terbaring di dalam genangan darahku sendiri, merasakan napasku perlahan berhenti. Mereka mengira aku kabur dari rumah lagi sebagai alasan untuk melampiaskan ketidakpuasanku. Mereka pikir bahwa selama mereka memberiku pelajaran, aku akan kembali dengan patuh seperti 99 kali sebelumnya. Sayangnya, itu tidak akan terjadi kali ini. Karena aku tidak pernah meninggalkan rumah, aku terus terbaring di ruang bawah tanah rumahku.

Rocco Falcone, que é o Don da família Falcone e meu suposto marido, desliga na minha cara pelo que parece ser a 99ª vez. Tendo sido diagnosticada com leucemia, arrasto meu corpo devastado até o escritório do advogado da família. — Estou aqui para pedir o divórcio. — Eu disse. … Quando Rocco fica sabendo, ele invade o local com a minha família dez minutos depois. No momento em que entra, ele me dá um tapa. — Você usou a linha de emergência só para arruinar a grande noite da Sofia? Você perdeu a cabeça? Lily Marone, minha mãe, arranca o diagnóstico da minha mão e o folheia rapidamente. Ela ri de forma desdenhosa. — Você fingiu estar doente só para chamar atenção? Quantas mentiras você contou desde criança, Claire? Sofia Moretti segura o braço de Rocco com lágrimas nos olhos. — Me perdoe, Claire. Eu não deveria ter aceitado o cargo. Por favor, pare de se machucar e de machucar o Rocco. Eu limpo o sangue da boca e me viro de volta para o advogado. — Eu não tenho mais família. Por favor, agilize a papelada do divórcio. Preciso que tudo esteja resolvido antes da minha cremação em três dias.

Soy la falsa heredera malvada que creció en una familia rica. Después de mi muerte, mi amor de la infancia publicó mis fotos íntimas, llamándome una cualquiera que solo sabía seducir hombres. Tras lo cual, la gente llegó a casa gritando que me merecía la muerte. Mis papás, para librarse de mi mala suerte, quemaron toda la mansión esa misma noche e incluso les dieron mis cenizas a los perros. Todos decían que me lo merecía. Hasta que el día de la gran boda en vivo entre la verdadera heredera y mi amor de infancia, recibieron mi regalo de bodas.

Vanessa León tuvo un noviazgo de cinco años que fue el tema de conversación en todo Cartaluz por lo apasionado que era. Sin embargo, el día que debían presentarse en el registro civil, la dejó plantada. Vanessa se hartó. Hizo la promesa de terminar con todo y convertir a su prometido en un simple exnovio. Pero, tras recibir una llamada y por impulso, terminó casándose con Rafael Cisneros, el hermano mayor de su ex. Él era alguien con quien ella siempre había tenido una relación distante y poco frecuente. *** Rafael era el heredero más respetado de Cartaluz. Fundó un imperio financiero en el extranjero y se convirtió en un tiburón de los negocios al que todos temían. Tras la boda, él se dedicó a consentir a Vanessa al máximo, cumpliendo cada uno de sus caprichos. En una ocasión, su ex intentó humillarla y dijo que ella no valía nada. Rafael le dio un golpe que lo mandó al suelo. —Mi esposa es lo más valioso que tengo y mi mayor tesoro. No me importa cómo sea, yo la voy a adorar siempre. Si te atreves a decirle una sola palabra más, te largas de la familia y te borro de la historia de los Cisneros. Mucho tiempo después, Vanessa descubrió que aquel hombre al que tanto respeto le tenía, llevaba diez años enamorado de ella en secreto. Todo lo que había pasado fue parte de un plan que él había preparado con paciencia.

When Rocco Morelli, a mafia don, finds me, it's when I'm working as a stripper at an illegal bar, pleasing the men around me with sultry smiles and provocative dances. He throws his jacket over me and grabs me by the jaw, saying, "Come home with me." From that day onward, I fell in love with Rocco. After doting on me for five years, he proposes to me. Yet, in the month leading up to the wedding, he suddenly disappears. I launch a frenzied search for him before eventually seeing him in a jewelry boutique. With his arm wrapped around the dolled-up woman beside him, he picks out a 20-carat wedding ring. That woman is Emilia Leone, who is my father's illegitimate daughter. He stares at her, his eyes filled with affection. "I'll prepare the grandest wedding ceremony for you." "What about Cassandra?" Emilia asks with a coy smile. "You proposed to her, too." Snorting, Rocco replies scornfully, "Can't you tell? That's just my way of toying with her. Her older brother nearly took your life. Now that he's gone missing, it's only right for her to suffer the consequences in his place. "On our wedding day, I'll abandon her at the altar and marry you instead. She'll become the laughingstock in all of Langshore. Only you, the daughter of the Leone family, the largest mafia family, are worthy of me." The wedding day arrives, and I skip out on the ceremony as well. At Rocco and Emilia's wedding ceremony, I broadcast 99 photos of Emilia fooling around with other men. He panics and tearfully begs for me to return to him, but I take the gun my brother hands me and point it at his head, saying, "Actually, I'm the real daughter of the Leone family."

Walter Stone has built a utopia for his private brothel with a ton of money with the proclamation that he wants to collect 100 wives. After kidnapping and forcing himself on 99 women, Walter has his eye on me, Caleb Ingram's pregnant wife. On the day I'm supposed to be sent to Walter, my housekeeper sinks down to her knees and pleads for me. "Please think your decision through, Mr. Ingram! I heard that Mr. Stone Senior is very brutal when it comes to bedroom matters! If Mrs. Ingram were to be sent to him, I'm afraid that she wouldn't be able to protect her unborn baby…" But Caleb remains cold and aloof. "Since Mr. Stone Senior has personally asked for Nala, she has to go to him no matter what. If she loses the baby, then that's that. At most, I won't file for a divorce from her. Once she returns, she'll still remain as the missus of the Ingram family. We can have another baby in the future." In my previous life, I refused to travel to Walter's residence. In the end, Caleb's private assistant, Sadie Riverson, offered to go in my place. But the moment she came back, she slit her wrist and died. The coroner's autopsy report showed that she was pregnant as well. Caleb kept his emotions bottled up since then. But on the day I gave birth to my baby, he walked to the rooftop of the hospital and threw our newborn down the building. Only then did I realize that he had been hating my guts the whole time since Sadie's death. Now that I've gotten reborn, I no longer resist against the chains of fate. Instead, I get into the luxury car Walter has sent for me coolly.

A 99ª vez que meu noivo, Draven, desligou na minha cara, eu me arrastei até a igreja da família, com meu diagnóstico de doença renal terminal agarrado na mão. — Padre, desejo renunciar à família Rocci e romper meu noivado com Draven Frost. As palavras mal haviam saído dos meus lábios quando meus pais irromperam ali com minha irmã adotiva, Bianca. Meu pai, o consigliere da família, não hesitou. Ele me deu um tapa no rosto, ali mesmo, na frente do padre. — Seu noivo é um capo respeitado no nosso mundo, e você escolhe insultá-lo assim! — Você está arrastando o nome da nossa família pela lama diante de toda a organização! Minha mãe arrancou o diagnóstico da minha mão, zombando após um breve olhar. — Fingindo estar doente para chamar atenção de novo, é isso? O que você quer desta vez? Minha irmã adotiva, Bianca, segurou nos braços deles, sua voz embargando com lágrimas. — Desculpa, irmã. Você pode ficar no meu lugar no baile. Por favor, só pare de causar problemas para a mamãe e o papai! Eu limpei o sangue que escorria do meu nariz e repeti calmamente minhas palavras ao padre. — Eu não sou mais uma filha da família Rocci. Não sou digna de uma aliança com os Frost. — Estarei morta em três dias. Quero que este noivado seja rompido antes disso.

これで妻からの冷たい仕打ちは99回目になる。 落ちた彼女のバッグから、コンサートのチケットが2枚こぼれ落ちた。 「誕生日に連れて行こうと思ってたの。見つけちゃったなら、その日に会いましょう。出張に行くから」 そう言う彼女の声さえ、冷たかった。 誕生日当日、僕は彼女の好きな色の服を着て、賑やかなコンサート会場の入り口で待った。 終演まで、彼女は現れなかった。 スマホを開くと、妻の幼なじみが投稿したSNSが目に入った。 「コンサート見れなかったけど、あの子を慰めるために、ずっと観たがってた映画を観に来た」 スマホを閉じる。心は不思議なほど静かだった。

On the day we chose our college majors, the influencer who was the school's heartthrob held a livestream and announced that he had decided to lead the anti-rat-race movement and would choose to attend a vocational college. The whole class followed him. Seeing the rapidly increasing number of followers, he smiled smugly. "They can do these low-class jobs if they like. I'll change my choice back to Harvard University at the last minute." I tried to dissuade him, but this would cause network congestion. My girlfriend slapped me. "You nerd! Who are you to tell our idol, Zach Simpson, what to do?" In my previous life, I spent half an hour dissuading them, and only then did the students change their college choices. However, Zach failed to change his application due to network lag and was admitted to a vocational college instead. He could not bear the blow and jumped into the river to commit suicide. The students who had entered prestigious universities collectively vented their anger on me. At the class reunion, they poured 99 bottles of beer down my throat and locked me in the karaoke's freezer. "Who cares about the prestige of a prestigious university? You'll just be working for someone else after graduation anyway!" "Why did we follow Zach in the first place? Wasn't it to break this damn rule?" "Zach was leading us to realize our dreams! If you hadn't interfered, I would already have gone to a vocational college with him!" They spoke disdainfully of prestigious universities, yet not one of them chose to drop out. I froze to death in a dark, cold freezer, my eyes wide open. Years later, they became elites in their respective fields, while my parents could only weep looking at my portrait. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the day Zach was livestreaming in the classroom. This time, I promised I would not interfere. Instead, I wished them a happy vocational college experience.
