Genius Face

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.

Si Yana "Kelly" Reyes, medical graduate na maling inakusahan ng plagiarism at itinakwil ng sariling pamilya, ay tumatakbo sa kanyang nakaraan sa pamamagitan ng pagtatrabaho bilang nurse sa MS Pacifica, isang mamahaling cruise ship na naglalakbay mula sa Pilipinas patungo sa Europa. Si Kapitan Lucas "Alex" Montenegro, ang matapang, gwapo, ngunit lubhang misteryosong pinuno ng barko, ay una nang nagdududa kay Yana — akala niya ay isang espiya o mandaraya. Ngunit habang nakikita niya ang kanyang katapatan sa pag-aalaga ng mga pasyente at tapang na harapin ang sunud-sunod na kakaibang pangyayari sa barko (misteryosong sakit, nawawalang gamot, pati na rin ang mga nakakatakot na "aksidente"), unti-unting nahuhumaling si Alex sa kanya. Habang mas malalim na iniimbestigahan ni Yana ang mga kaganapan, natuklasan niya ang isang malawak na sabwatan na kinasasangkutan ng mga mayayamang negosyante, pulitiko, at maging ang sariling pamilya ng barko — isang sabwatan na hindi lang nasa MS Pacifica, kundi may malalim na ugnayan sa kanyang sariling iskandalo noon. Kasama si Alex, na may sariling nakaraan na kinasasangkutan din ng sabwatan, kailangan nilang harapin ang panganib, linisin ang kanilang mga pangalan, ilantad ang buong katotohanan, at ipaglaban ang isang ipinagbabawal na pag-ibig na maaaring magbago ng lahat ng kanilang alam.

The day before New Year's, my younger brother announced he was bringing his girlfriend home for dinner. Excited, I drove my new car to pick them up, taking my daughter along with me. However, as soon as his girlfriend got in the car, her face darkened. "Henry, you didn't tell me your sister was staying at your place—and with a kid!" she snapped. I frowned and was about to explain when my brother quickly interjected, "She's not staying. After dropping us off, she'll be heading to a hotel." Only then did his girlfriend's expression ease. I swallowed my discomfort and asked my brother what he was planning. He leaned in with a conspiratorial grin and said, "Sis, don't cause any trouble for me, okay? My girlfriend is the daughter of the Cromwell Group's CEO!" My eyes widened in shock. Was not the Cromwell Group the same company my ex-husband had just handed over to me as part of our divorce settlement?

“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.” ***
