‘네가 되면 네가 해’라는 시스템이 탄생했다. “만약 누군가가 잘 못살고 있다고 생각되고 본인이 그 사람보다 더 잘할 수 있으면 상금을 획득하게 됩니다.” 딸만 바라보는 엄마, 가족의 책임을 회피하는 남편, 나를 창피하게 여기는 아들이 함께 나를 심판석에 올리길 바랐다. 세 사람은 모두 그들이 나라면 나보다 더 잘했을 것이라고 말했다. 만약 세 사람이 실제로 더 잘한다면, 나는 그들의 노예가 될 것이고, 그들은 사람마다 5억 원의 상금을 받게 된다. 반대면 나는 앉아서 15억을 받게 된다.

죽은 지 5년째 되던 해, 엄마는 경찰로부터 전화 한 통을 받았다. “따님의 소식이 들려왔습니다.” 엄마는 동생을 데리고 곧바로 고향으로 달려가 외할머니댁 문을 거칠게 열어젖혔다. “석경이는 어딨어요? 그 못된 계집애, 참 잘도 숨었네. 얼른 각막이나 빼서 동생한테 이식해야 해요!” 외할머니는 울음을 삼키며 말했다. “석경이는 이미 죽었단다.” 그러나 어머니는 비웃으며 소리쳤다. “헛소리하지 마요! 경찰이 분명히 소식이 있다고 전화했다고요.” “지금 당장 석경이 안 데려오면, 엄마도 당장 집에서 쫓겨날 줄 알아요!” 외할머니는 그런 엄마를 보며 눈물을 머금었다. 그리고 떨리는 손으로 내 사진을 꺼내 보이며 말했다. “석경아, 너는 네 동생을 구한 걸 후회하니?”

동생 유진이 5개월째 컬러렌즈를 빼지 않고 있다. 나는 문제가 생길까 두려워 유진이를 직접 병원에 데려갔다. 다행히 각막이 손상되진 않아 우리는 안약만 좀 처방을 받아 집으로 돌아왔다. 그러나 유진이가 이 일로 나에게 원한을 품을 줄은 전혀 생각지도 못했다. 유진은 내가 잠든 틈을 타 나에게 복수했다. “눈은 재생 가능한 기관이야. 곧 염색에 성공할 뻔했는데 너 때문에 처음부터 다시 시작해야 하잖아!” 죽기 전, 나는 피투성이가 된 유진의 얼굴에 나에 대한 원망으로 가득 차 있는 것을 보았다. 다시 눈을 떴을 때, 유진이는 소파에 앉아 친구에게 자신의 컬러렌즈를 자랑하고 있었다. 하지만 이번에 유진이 착용한 것은 그녀를 죽음으로 이끌 렌즈였다.
