Genius Face

While my corpse was rotting in the morgue, my fiancé, Ron Corleone, was comforting my murderer. Lisa Corleone sobbed as she said, “After we were kidnapped and brought here, Wendy disappeared. We don’t know if she managed to escape. It was all my fault. If I hadn’t insisted on going out with Wendy…” Ron’s face was ice cold. “The future mistress of the Corleone family actually abandoned my sister and fled on her own. If she dares to come back, I’ll break her arms and legs and turn her into a maggot that only deserves to live in the dark!” In fact, I did die in some random corner with my limbs broken. The truth about my death made Ron, who had vowed to make me regret my existence, crazy.

“Ya, mencintai itu memang butuh ketulusan, kesabaran, juga pengorbanan,” jerit batin Raditya Pambudi. “Tapi, ketulusan, kesabaran, serta pengorbanan seperti apa lagi yang harus aku persembahkan kepada seorang istri yang tidak memberikan hal yang sama terhadap diriku, suaminya? Memang, aku nyaris tak pernah diperlakukan selayaknya seorang suami oleh wanita yang aku nikahi dan cintai itu. Di kala aku berusaha membahagiakannya dengan segenap jiwa dan ikhtiarku, dia malah dengan tanpa merasa berdosa justru menganggapku bukan siapa-siapa dalam kehidupannya. Walau berat dan seolah hidup dalam neraka, tapi aku mencoba bertahan, bersabar, dan tanpa lelah berdoa, semoga kelak ia menjadi istri terbaik dan calon bidadari syurga bagi aku dan anak-anaknya kelak, seperti yang kuimpi-impikan dahulu.” ***

After I come back to decades ago, the first thing I do is feed a million-dollar production patent to the pigs. In my previous life, I handed that patent over to the government. My husband turned me in, accusing me of faking the data and scamming a fortune in patent royalties. Overnight, I went from being a celebrated genius researcher to a lying thief that everyone despised. As I prepared to pull out my manuscript to prove my innocence, my husband's childhood sweetheart beat me to it. She waved it in front of everyone and accused me of misconduct and plagiarism. My husband took her side, reprimanding me, "I know you've always been jealous of Juni for being well-educated, but I can't believe you were bold enough to steal her hard work. What are you going to do next? Embezzle state funds?" I couldn't defend myself. No matter what I said, no one chose to believe me. The other researchers assaulted me so badly that I bled out and died. After my death, my husband and his childhood sweetheart took my patent without a second thought. The never-ending stream of patent royalties made them rich and powerful. When I open my eyes again, I'm back on the very day she accuses me of stealing.
