Pagkamatay ng nanay ni Joey ay bigla na lamang nagpakita ang tatay niyang ni sa hinagap ay hindi niya alam na buhay pa.

You will enter the Ember University and pass their upcoming exams. If not, you must leave.” Halos lumubog si Joey sa kinatatayuan nito dahil sa bilis ng pagsasalita ng kanyang madrasta. ‘Nag-fli-fliptop ba ‘to?’ tanong niya sa isipan. Pero napakamot na lamang siya ng kanyang ulo. “Do you understand?” Nakaka-pressure pang dagdag na tanong ni Aling Mariebeth. Mas lalo lang tuloy lumalim ang gitla sa noo niya saka siya mabagal na napalunok. “Uhm, ang galing niyo naman pong mag-English. Pwede pong pa-translate?” nakangiwing saad niya rito dahilan para mamula ang mukha nito sa pinaghalong inis at galit. *** Ngunit paano nga ba niya haharapin ang pagbabagong ito ng buhay niya? Mula sa isang kahig, isang tukang paghihirap, ngayon ay anak pala siya ng isa sa pinakamayamang negosyante sa bansa. Idagdag pa ang mukhang laging galit na madrasta niya at prinsesitang hilaw na kapatid niya. Isa lang ang kailangang gawin ni Joey at iyon ang pumasa sa Ember University. At magagawa lamang niya ‘yon kung tutulungan siya ni Ivan Dela Fuente, ang lampa at nerd niyang kaklase. Pero bakit ba bigla-bigla na lang tumitibok ng malakas ang puso niya dahil sa loser na lalaking ito? ‘Bwesit! Hindi nakakaastig ‘to!’ Inis na sita ni Joey sa sarili lalo pa kung ang gusto naman ni Ivan ay ang hilaw niyang kapatid at hindi siya.

Mis padres adoptaron a un huérfano. Yo le tomé mucho cariño y lo quería como a un hijo propio. Hasta que me di cuenta de que se parecía cada vez más a mi esposo, Javier Mendoza, y que a mi hermana menor llamaba "mamá" a escondidas. Resultó que mi esposo que tanto amaba me había sido infiel desde hacía tiempo. Él y mi hermana habían formado una feliz familia en secreto. Hasta contaban con la bendición de mis padres. Cuando todo se supo, mi hermana me rogó que los dejara ser felices, y mis padres me ordenaron que les cediera el lugar. El niño que había criado con todo el amor me gritó que ojalá muriera de la peor manera. Pero lo que nadie esperaba era que Javier se negara al divorcio. Lloraba suplicándome perdón, diciendo que me amaba profundamente y que lo del niño había sido solo un error. Fingí creer en su pasión y le dije: —Siete días. Te doy siete días. Si logras demostrarme tu sinceridad, te perdonaré. Él, eufórico, cumplió mi cada deseo y me trató como a un tesoro. Hasta donó todos sus ahorros a mi nombre y obligó a mi hermana a arrodillarse en la nieve para pedirme perdón. Todos pensaron que al final lo perdonaría, hasta el día en que la policía vino a pedir la identificación de un cadáver. Ese día él enloqueció por completo. Lo que Javier nunca supo es que en realidad yo llevaba siete días muerta. La Muerte me había permitido regresar por siete días para darle mi propia despedida.
