Flashback Selena's first life, six years, Indonesian.
"Mother's sick?"
Selena sat next to her mother and brought a cupcake with candles. "Mother, Selena brought a birthday cake. Today is Selena's birthday. Selena was told that she expected Selena's presence and said love every day."
Aelia just sat on the bed with both hands tied to the bed so as not to hurt herself. Both of his eyes were staring at the window, as if he wanted to leave the room.
Selena wiped away the tears with the back of her tiny hand. "Mother, Selena can't light a fire, neither can sister. But Selena thinks fire is already on top of the candle."
"....O.."
Selena raised her head. "Mother?"
"Ste..... O."
Aelia turned her head to Selena. "Where is my husband?"
Selena, who had been standing by the bed, walked backwards in fear.
"I... get sick... Where is my husband?"
"I... Mothers... Dad... Dad's working."
"Work? He's playing with another woman, do you know? Waitaminute! Whoareyou? Are you that whore's son?"
"I-Mom, Selena's Mom's son."
"No, you're not my son. You're someone else's son, my son was taken out of my hands!" Aelia screamed hysterically.
Little Selena cried and was about to run to her mother. "Mom-mom."
"Selena, where are you going?"
Suddenly an adult man catches the tiny body of six-year-old Selena.
Selena tried to reach her mother. "No! Release him! I want to be with Mom! Mama!"
A cupcake bought with savings money fell to the floor and the man stepped on it, as did the candle and its hope.
Selena who saw that from the light of the opened door, was shocked.
Selena hit the man and ran to her sister when they were audited out of Aelia's room.
Aether hugged her sister. "Selena, what are you doing at mom's place?"
Selena crying. "I want to see mom, I want to celebrate mom's birthday."
The man who took Selena roughly, sighed in annoyance. "Selena, your mother is crazy! He can no longer be saved. Just really want to get close to him."
Selena looked at the man. "Don't say rude things to my mother!"
Stefano, who was wearing an expensive and neat suit, walked up to her two children who were making a fuss. "What's this about? Why is Selena making a fuss now?"
Tonight is Stefano's firm's birthday party, many important guests come while her two children make a mess.
Selena turned her sharp gaze to the father.
Stefano frowned. "What's that look, Selena? Can't you be a good boy anymore?"
Aether spoke in place of Selena, without looking at their father. "Today's Selena's birthday and she just bought a cupcake with her savings, but I think it's been destroyed by that guy."
Aether's eye gaze led to the shoes of the man who acted rudely towards Selena. Noticing Aether's gaze, he immediately lifted his foot and was surprised to see the rest of the cake stuck to his expensive shoes.
"What the fuck?" shouted the man in disdain.
Stefano feels guilty for Selena. "Selena, I'm sorry. We celebrate our anniversary tomorrow."
"Stefano, there are already many guests coming. Why are you here? Oh, why are the bad boys here?"
Stefano got up and looked at his mother's anger. "Mom, they're my kids."
"The bad boys can only trouble your life. They'd better stay in the dormitory, expand their knowledge."
Aether hugged her little sister tightly and calmed down. "Don't worry, if dad dumps us. Selena's still got a sister."
Stefano who heard that, scolded Aether. "Speak what are you? Go to your room and celebrate your birthday with your sister! I work for you too!"
Aether gently pulled her sister away from the adult commotion.
Selena looked at the door of her mother's room that was closed once again and asked her brother. "Mom can heal, right?"
Aether nodded to calm her sister. "Yes, I'm definitely cured."
But, everything Aether said was a lie to Selena.
Every birthday, Selena has to pass it along with the closed door in her mother's room and the birthday cake along with the candle that was not lit by fire.
Selena can light her own birthday candle. However, what he got was a bitter reality.
Along with the candle's extinguishment, the door of the room accidentally opened and Selena saw a leg hanging in the air.
Shouts echoed inside the house.
Aether immediately pulled her sister away while Stefano pulled Aelia's body.
"Aelia! Aelia!" Stefano shouted frantically as he hugged his wife's cold body.
Stefano's family who came to visit and saw it was shocked, Aelia who was stubborn and embarrassed the family, decided to commit suicide.
Selena looked one by one at her father's family who had been insulting her mother. "It's all because of you! You tied her up like crazy, when she was sick! Brother! Mother's autopsy! Please autopsy mom, I know you're sick. I know you can't afford such unfair treatment."
Stefano got up and carried Aelia's already stiff body. "No need, I'm the only one who knows what pain he's in!"
"Where are you going to take you?" Selena pushes the shocked Aether and blocks Stefano's path. "Don't hurt my mother's body! He is no longer alive!"
"Surge!" Press Stefano.
Selena refused to leave.
Stefano shouted furiously. "NECK, SELENA!"
Before her father does anything out of control, Aether pulls her sister's body. "Selena."
Selena rebel. "No, it's my seventeenth birthday. She should be healed and with me now! Mom's not crazy! I'm a mother's son, I know everything!"
Stefano's mother grunted angrily. "Mom and son are both crazy!"
It was Selena's worst birthday, a birthday that signified maturity and hope, just vanished.
A few days later, Selena and Aether must come to terms with a painful reality.
"The great lady was pregnant and it was time to give birth but could not get out because her body was too thin and had no energy, one of the babies died in the womb."
"One? Then there's another one?" Aether asked after getting a statement from the butler.
The butler took a long breath. "The other one is in the incubator and is in good health."
"Isn't mom crazy? Who's been impregnating mom?" Selena asked in a high tone in front of her father's family. He used to hate the family of the father who always cursed his mother in the back.
Stefano's family dared not comment, but Stefano's mother, who had hated Aelia from the beginning, cursed Selena. "Your crazy mother must be having an affair with another man, she's lost her mind so she can't tell other husbands and men apart anymore!"
