Karma Seals

Ibu angkatku memiliki kebiasaan yang mengerikan. Dia sangat suka makan plasenta dan hanya menginginkan plasenta dari kerabat dekatnya. Dia percaya bahwa plasenta dapat menyembuhkan segala penyakit, jadi dia mengadopsi banyak gadis untuk dijadikan pelampiasan nafsu bagi putranya. Aku dan kakakku adalah saudara kembar. Namun, tampang kami sama sekali tidak mirip. Kakakku cantik dan pandai, serta sangat populer di panti asuhan. Karena itulah, ibu angkatku langsung terpikat padanya. Aku tidak tahu apa yang dikatakan kakakku pada ibu angkatku waktu itu. Namun pada akhirnya, dia memutuskan untuk mengadopsiku juga. Awalnya, aku berpikir kami akan menjalani kehidupan yang normal bersama. Namun, ilusi itu hanya bertahan selama satu tahun. Kenyataan baru mulai terbuka suatu malam ketika aku terbangun untuk pergi ke kamar mandi dan mendengar suara erangan dari kamar kakakku. Dengan jelas, aku melihat bayangan Donny, putra ibu angkatku, melakukan hal yang membuatku merinding di atas tubuh kakakku. Sejak itu, kakakku harus memenuhi keinginan ibu angkat dengan memberikan plasenta dari tiga anak yang dilahirkannya. Namun, saat ibu angkatku akhirnya menelan plasenta dari anak keempat kakakku, sesuatu yang tak terduga terjadi. Ibu angkatku tiba-tiba mengalami gangguan jiwa.

"Lima belas ribu, Mas? Yang benar saja. Besok kamu tahu kan, kalau ibuku mau datang?" Kedua alis Aira naik ke atas dengan mata melebar.  "Kenapa? Apa ada yang salah? Terus ... kalau orang tuamu datang, kita mau menyambut seperti ratu, menyediakan ikan, daging, udang, cumi, begitu? Kita hidup harus hemat. Nggak peduli siapa yang datang. Bukankah orang kampung juga menyambut tamu dengan hidangan seadanya?"

After being reincarnated as the villain in a story where everyone doted on the heroine, the system appeared. It told me that if I could win over any one of the male leads, I would regain a healthy body and return to my original world. But I failed to win over any of them. There was my adoptive brother, the fake heir, who grew up with me. My rebellious high school deskmate, the real heir, who became a boxer. And my childhood sweetheart, the genius surgeon. Even my own son, whom I carried for ten months. Without exception, they all fell in love with that cold, stubborn damsel while growing to deeply despise me. The system sighed and told me that if I could die at the hands of any one of the male leads, I would be able to see my parents in the original world. In the end, I used every method possible and was finally killed by them, with their own hands. But why did they all go mad afterward?

"Aku sudah membayarmu, jadi kamu adalah milikku. Mau aku menciummu ataupun berbuat lebih dari itu, kamu tak berhak menolaknya," tekanku pada Yumna yang wajahnya tampak merah padam. Alina hanya diam, berdiri di pojok lift dengan menatap ke arah lain. Ya, dia selalu tahu diri bagaimana harus bersikap. "Ya aku tahu! Apa perlu Anda mengul9angnya lagi dan lagi?!" Dia masih terus bicara. Merasa muak, aku mendekat dan kembali mengulang perbuatan yang sangat dibencinya, untuk menutup mulut Yumna. Sementara Alina jadi salah tingkah dan membalik badan melihat kami.

Mon fiancé Roch Martin m'a séquestrée dans son sous-sol pendant dix jours pour venger son amie d'enfance. Il m'a tranché les bras, condamnant mon corps, déjà fragile à cause de mon trouble de la coagulation, à une lente hémorragie. Le jour de notre mariage, il a maudit mon « retard », croyant aux calomnies de cette même amie qui m'accusait d'adultère. Ses mensonges ont tué ma mère, morte d'infarctus sous l'outrage. Pourtant, quand il a découvert mon cadavre desséché, c'était lui qui a sombré dans la folie...

My husband is a rock climbing route setter. It's our wedding anniversary today, but he brings his female best friend with him on an adventure to discover uncharted territory. It comes about because his female best friend says life is so boring. We're trapped in the mountains when we encounter extreme weather, and the rescue helicopter can only take two people with them. They climb up the ladder deftly, leaving me to slowly grow colder in the rain. I shout his name with all my strength. "I have a heart condition! I'll die if I don't get to the hospital soon!" He throws a rope down at me without even sparing me a glance. "Luna has menstrual cramps—she never says she's in pain. You, on the other hand, are only good at acting. Think of a way to get down yourself." What he doesn't know is that his "good friend" has already sliced the rope he threw to me.

My grandfather is a nationally renowned inheritor of an intangible cultural heritage. Today, I'm supposed to attend a grand ceremony as his rightful successor. However, when I arrive, I see my father's adoptive daughter already standing on the stage. She's dressed to the nines. She holds an award and is giving a thank-you speech, looking moved. In the past, I would've left without saying anything or speaking up for myself. Too bad for her that I'd been reborn. The discrepancy between our statuses is so large that we're basically from different worlds. Yet she has the nerve to claim to be my grandfather's successor and put on a show with what is supposed to be my family's.

Everyone loved my older sister. When the novel I wrote shot to popularity, she got jealous and suddenly proclaimed that she wanted to be a popular author too. My older brother, who was the editor-in-chief, immediately announced that I plagiarized my sister's story at my book signing and she ended up becoming the genius author while I got cyberbullied so much that I was too scared to leave the house. After I got married to a young heir from high society and lived a happy life, my sister told me that she had a crush on him for years and wanted to be his bride at least once in her lifetime. He did not even think twice about divorcing me and holding the wedding of the century with my sister. My family was afraid that I would sabotage their relationship, so they made me leave the country. However, my sister did not think that I was miserable enough. She came for me outside the country and pushed me down the stairs. I was lying in a pool of blood when my mother rebuked me, "Did you say something that made your sister unhappy again?" That was how I died in despair. When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day my brother accused me of plagiarism.
