Mistério

It was almost New Year. I had just withdrawn money from the bank when I noticed that the amount on my passbook didn't match the cash in my hand. I counted carefully—my passbook showed a different figure than the five thousand dollars I was holding. Frustrated, I turned and went back to the counter to find the teller who had handled my transaction. Clutching the receipt, I tried to be polite. "Excuse me, I think there might be a mistake with this transaction." Instantly, she snapped, pointing her finger at my nose. "Don't you know that once you leave the counter, we are not responsible for any discrepancies?" I waved my hands, trying to explain. "No, wait, look again. I clearly withdrew five thousand dollars, but on my passbook, it shows…" She cut me off impatiently. "When you filled out the form, it was all right there. Once you leave the counter, it's not our problem. You signed the form yourself, confirming everything. Are we supposed to correct it every time someone claims a mistake after leaving the bank?" I froze. No wonder she kept repeating that the bank isn't responsible after leaving the counter. She thought I had come back to ask for more money. What I was really trying to explain was simple: I withdrew five thousand, yet my passbook showed that I deposited five thousand.

Eu fui forçada a trocar meu coração com o primeiro amor do meu marido. Depois disso, morri no corredor do hospital particular que ele mesmo criou. Antes de eu morrer, meu filho de seis anos, Otávio Júnior, chorou e implorou a pai dele três vezes. Na primeira vez, Otávio segurou a mão daquele homem e disse que eu estava vomitando sangue. Ele riu com desprezo: — Dessa vez ela finalmente aprendeu algo, até ensinou você a mentir. Em seguida, ele mandou os seguranças expulsarem Otávio do quarto. Na segunda vez, Otávio agarrou a manga de sua camisa e disse que eu estava delirando de dor. Ele franziu a testa: — É só uma troca de coração. Os médicos já disseram que ela não vai morrer. Mais uma vez, os seguranças puxaram Otávio para fora. Na terceira vez, Otávio se jogou no chão, segurou firme a barra da calça dele e chorou dizendo que eu já estava inconsciente. Dessa vez, ele perdeu a paciência. Ele agarrou Otávio pelo pescoço e o jogou para fora do quarto: — Eu já disse que Heloísa Dias não vai morrer. Se você vier aqui incomodar o descanso da Bianca Nunes de novo, eu juro que vou expulsar vocês dois deste hospital. Desesperado para me salvar, Otávio penhorou seu escapulário, algo que ele considerava um tesouro, para uma enfermeira: — Tia, eu não quero viver cem anos. Só quero que minha mamãe continue viva. A enfermeira aceitou o escapulário e se preparou para me transferir para o último quarto disponível. Mas o primeiro amor do meu marido, Bianca, bloqueou a porta com seu cachorro no colo e disse: — Sinto muito, garotinho. Seu pai está preocupado que eu me sinta sozinha sem o meu cachorro. Este quarto foi reservado para meu cachorro.

Com vinte e cinco semanas de gravidez, Tatiane foi sozinha à consulta pré-natal. Foi ali que descobriu a traição do próprio marido. Mais pesada, com os traços apagados e mal conseguindo sustentar a barriga, acabou sendo tratada como uma mulher muito mais velha pela amante - jovem e bonita - e ignorada pelo marido diante de todos. Henrique não a defendeu. Não explicou. Não negou nada. Limitou-se a olhá-la com desprezo, como se ela fosse um peso do qual queria se livrar. Poucos sabiam que, anos antes, no primeiro encontro entre Tatiane e Henrique, ela também fora o centro das atenções, admirada por todos. Convencido de que Tatiane havia se aproveitado dele para ascender socialmente, foi Henrique quem tomou a iniciativa de pedir o divórcio. Naquele instante, o coração dela morreu. Oito anos. Da universidade ao mercado de trabalho. Um amor silencioso, dedicação absoluta, incontáveis sacrifícios. Nada daquilo tinha valido a pena. Tatiane deu à luz, assinou o acordo do divórcio e foi embora sem olhar para trás. Cinco anos depois, ela já não era a mulher apagada de antes. Agora, era uma empresária poderosa, dona de um império avaliado em centenas de milhões. Linda. Confiante. Radiante. Cercada por admiração, poder e possibilidades. O homem que pedira o divórcio, porém, jamais o oficializara. Quando Tatiane entrou com uma ação judicial, Henrique voltou a se aproximar, afastando, um a um, todos os homens que tentavam chegar perto dela. Até o dia em que Tatiane surgiu em público, de mãos dadas com outro homem, anunciando o noivado. Henrique a encurralou contra a parede. Fora de si, rosnou: — Tatiane, casar com outro homem? Nem pense nisso.
