00:00No, no, no, no. Please, Stella, please don't do this, please.
00:03Look at me, look at me. You did this to me. You ruined everything, everything.
00:07You destroyed my chance to marry into money.
00:10Calm down, Stella. Please, I can help you.
00:12Shut up! Go to hell, Chloe!
00:16Throughout freshman training, my roommate covered herself from head to toe with sunscreen she had made herself.
00:21It left her complexion creamy and fair, while its tempting scent turned one boy after another into an admirer.
00:27My own boyfriend even spearheaded the effort to make her campus beauty queen.
00:31I alone recognized the truth.
00:33The spice in that sunscreen was poisonous, and repeated use would make her skin break down.
00:38Without saying a word, I quietly requested a room transfer.
00:41The first time I lived through this, I tried to warn her.
00:43She sobbed before everyone and lied that I wanted her shunned.
00:46Every boy called me bitter and jealous.
00:49Furious with me, my boyfriend ended our relationship and went after her.
00:52It was not long before my roommate's skin began to rot exactly as I had feared.
00:57I hurriedly mixed an ointment from an old family prescription and treated her.
01:00The open wounds closed, but her skin was left coarse and lifeless.
01:03The girl once celebrated as campus queen became the university's favorite joke overnight.
01:08My ex left her, and everyone else kept their distance.
01:11She decided that my jealousy was responsible for every disaster in her life.
01:15The day the university forced her out,
01:17she bound me on the academic building's roof and emptied a bucket of sulfuric acid over my head.
01:22That poisonous ointment caused all of this.
01:25Everyone mocks me now.
01:26You destroyed my chance to marry into money.
01:31You destroyed it.
01:33The pain killed me.
01:34Then my eyes opened again.
01:36I had come back to life.
01:37It was the first day of freshman training all over again.
01:43The row containing Stella Hawthorne sent its girls forward to introduce themselves.
01:50I'm Stella, like a bright star in the night sky.
01:52I'm so happy to meet you all.
01:54Every boy behind us went silent and stared.
01:56Stella's skin looks so fair and tender.
01:58You think it would blush if someone pinched it?
01:59Freshmen from other departments turned our way,
02:01and even the girls started whispering.
02:03Can sunscreen really work that well?
02:05Makeup is banned during training, and it's 104 Fahrenheit.
02:08She has no foundation on, yet she's still that pale.
02:11Do you smell that?
02:12It's amazing.
02:13What perfume does Stella use?
02:14Their excited chatter swallowed the introductions that followed.
02:17Praise brought color to Stella's cheeks,
02:19and her smile widened with every comment.
02:21The boys were practically vibrating with excitement.
02:23My boyfriend, Logan Prescott, stood just behind me to one side,
02:26looking completely dazzled.
02:28She's beautiful, fair, and she smells incredible.
02:31And that hourglass body?
02:33She has to be one of the hottest girls here.
02:35Once again, my hands curled into fists.
02:37In my last life, this was the exact moment Stella and her homemade sunscreen
02:41became famous throughout the university.
02:44Vanity had always ruled her.
02:45Once everyone started praising her,
02:47she went from applying the sunscreen once daily to using it four times a day.
02:51My family traded spices,
02:52so every sort of fragrance had surrounded me since childhood.
02:55One breath of that familiar poisonous sweetness brought the scene of my terrible death crashing back.
03:00Before I could pull myself together,
03:02Logan spoke from behind me.
03:04Is she your roommate?
03:05Is she seeing anyone?
03:08Introductions ended,
03:09and our drill instructor gave us five minutes to rest.
03:12Stella came over,
03:14repeatedly stealing glances at Logan beside me.
03:16Their eyes met.
03:17Stella flushed,
03:18and her sweet scent intensified.
03:20Logan could hardly keep his breathing steady.
03:22I was the only person who understood why.
03:25In the heat,
03:25Stella's sweat mixed with the spiced sunscreen,
03:27strengthening its scent.
03:29At the same time,
03:29it made the poison several times stronger.
03:31Logan!
03:32Called away by the instructor,
03:34Logan gave Stella one lingering look before leaving.
03:36Stella used the opening to question me.
03:39Chloe,
03:40I heard you and Logan knew each other in high school.
03:42Could you send me his number?
03:43Our other roommate responded with an eye roll.
03:45Everyone knows Chloe and Logan are together.
03:47You ask her for his number to her face?
03:49Are you openly trying to take him?
03:51You've misunderstood me.
03:52I heard Logan was temporary class leader,
03:54and I only wanted to...
03:55I'll send it.
03:55Her eyes brightened as she immediately reached for her phone.
03:58After I sent Logan's number,
04:00Stella smiled and linked arms with me.
04:02Thanks, Chloe.
04:03You're wonderful.
04:04We're going to be good friends from now on.
04:05The tickle in my nose was unbearable,
04:07and instinct made me pull free.
04:09As Stella prepared to look hurt again,
04:11I buried my disgust and called to Logan behind her.
04:13Logan, come have lunch with us!
04:18He never stopped watching Stella on the walk to lunch.
04:20Her exposed skin gleamed like marble,
04:23and its sweet scent left Logan bewitched.
04:25I quietly put more space between us.
04:28Logan and I had dated for just three months,
04:30since the SAT.
04:31During my first life,
04:32his interest in Stella truly had made me jealous.
04:35After living through it once,
04:36I saw he had always been rotten inside.
04:38He and Stella deserved each other perfectly.
04:40At the cafeteria,
04:42a call from our faculty advisor reached Logan,
04:44when it ended.
04:45He gave me an uncertain look.
04:47I already knew what he wanted tomorrow.
04:49Each class had to send a speaker.
04:52In my previous life,
04:54the advisor selected me personally,
04:55because my entrance score ranked first.
04:58But Stella waited until I took the stage,
04:59then quietly cried and kept suggesting that I had stolen her chance.
05:03The boys all rushed to console him,
05:04leaving no one to hear my speech.
05:06Logan joined them in glaring at me with open hatred.
05:10As soon as I finished,
05:11he hauled me aside,
05:12and we had the ugliest fight of our entire relationship.
05:15After that,
05:16Stella became everyone's unquestioned choice,
05:17whenever the university offered an opportunity.
05:20Despite my top entrance score,
05:22she ended up with the scholarships,
05:23the awards,
05:24and even the prize for best graduation thesis.
05:26I had fought so hard for my dream school and major,
05:29never imagining Stella would take it all from me.
05:31By the time I returned to the present,
05:33Logan was still searching for the right words.
05:35My throat has been bothering me.
05:37I might be getting sick.
05:38Then get some rest.
05:40But tomorrow's speech,
05:41the advisor specifically asked for you.
05:43I can't do it.
05:44Send Stella instead.
05:45You mean it?
05:46Thank you!
05:47Why not?
05:49Best friends help each other,
05:50and your sunscreen is impressive.
05:52Wear plenty tomorrow,
05:53the stage gets full sun.
05:54Something flickered in Stella's eyes
05:56before she nodded eagerly.
05:57Logan let out a relieved breath.
05:59His gaze barely touched me
06:00before settling on Stella again.
06:02At the first university-wide event of freshman training,
06:04Stella became a sensation overnight.
06:07From the second she walked on stage,
06:09every boy in attendance kept his eyes fixed on her.
06:14I sat among the audience while talk about Stella surrounded me from every direction.
06:18That sunscreen is unreal.
06:20Everyone else is tanning in this heat,
06:22but Stella stays snow white.
06:24Her skin nearly bounces the sunlight back.
06:26If she can make sunscreen herself,
06:28her family must have money.
06:29Maybe she's an heiress.
06:30Now I get why Logan called her campus queen.
06:33There isn't a bad angle on her.
06:34When her speech ended,
06:36Stella bowed to the crowd.
06:37Her neckline sagged with the movement,
06:39putting her full cleavage on display.
06:43While the rest of us slept last night,
06:45she had stayed awake and blended the spice into perfume.
06:48The speeches began at 10.
06:49Before then,
06:50Stella had applied three layers of sunscreen
06:52and misted half a bottle of perfume over herself.
06:55Her fragrance now rode even the breeze,
06:58leaving every boy near the stage red-faced.
07:00Few of them were visibly aroused.
07:02Logan stretched his neck for a clearer view
07:04while covering his crotch with one hand.
07:06I found him more revolting by the second.
07:08Within hours,
07:09someone posted Stella's speech on the school forum,
07:11and the clip spread everywhere.
07:13The entire campus named her beauty queen.
07:15Countless people downloaded the video,
07:17and the homepage placed her full body portrait
07:19beside my top freshman photo.
07:21Her photo showed almost everything she intended to reveal
07:23beneath a white mini dress with thin straps.
07:26Her pale complexion and delicate air
07:27made her beauty look almost artificial beside her.
07:30I appeared in nothing more
07:31than an ordinary white t-shirt and jeans.
07:34The contrast made us look as if we belong
07:36to completely different classes of people.
07:39The forum immediately filled with comparisons
07:41between the two of us.
07:43At the start of school,
07:44I thought Chloe looked nice.
07:45Put her beside Stella, though,
07:46and she seems dark and ugly.
07:48They sleep in the same dorm room.
07:50Why doesn't she copy Stella
07:51and start using sunscreen properly?
07:53A girl who never bothers with sunscreen?
07:55I can't believe Logan was willing to date her.
07:57A message from Logan arrived soon afterward.
07:59Chloe, this relationship isn't working for me.
08:01We should break up.
08:02At last,
08:03the day I had been waiting for was here.
08:04I contained my excitement
08:06and sent a few short replies
08:07pretending to ask him to stay.
08:09Never mind.
08:09Honestly, you suit Stella better.
08:11If she's who you really want,
08:12then you have my blessing.
08:14Several days later,
08:15Stella arrived with her arm
08:17wrapped around Logan's.
08:18Everyone applauded
08:19the instant they appeared.
08:20She coyly covered her smile,
08:21but I saw that the layer of sunscreen
08:23on her body
08:23was thicker than her body.
08:25She had become obsessed with it,
08:28setting an alarm
08:28so she could reapply it everywhere
08:30every two hours.
08:31At that pace,
08:31I would not need to wait
08:33until the school year ended.
08:34As I had before,
08:35her skin would begin breaking down
08:36before freshman training was over.
08:38Surrounded by cheering classmates,
08:40the pair approached like famous stars.
08:43Stella, you look prettier
08:44every time I see you.
08:45Thank you for stepping aside
08:47and letting Logan choose me.
08:48Sunscreen still marked the skin
08:49around Logan's mouth.
08:50This time,
08:51my smile was completely genuine.
08:53Of course.
08:53That's what best friends are for.
08:57Afterward,
08:58Logan and Stella took several days off,
09:00and Stella stopped coming back
09:01to the dorm.
09:02Her social media showed Logan
09:04driving her around in luxury cars
09:05and giving her tours
09:06of his family's companies.
09:08They ate extravagant meals
09:09beside the river
09:10and spent their nights
09:10in five-star hotels.
09:15One day as I packed,
09:16another roommate began
09:17muttering behind me.
09:19What could Stella have mixed
09:21into that sunscreen
09:22to drive every man crazy?
09:25Even you seemed bewitched
09:27and handed over your boyfriend.
09:29People in other departments say
09:31she calls Logan her boyfriend
09:33while dating several other boys.
09:36You're close to her.
09:37Did she ever admit that?
09:38I offered no answer
09:39and continued filling my suitcase.
09:41The university had approved
09:42my dorm transfer request.
09:44As soon as training ended,
09:46I would leave this room.
09:47I could not bear another second
09:49surrounded by that fragrance.
09:50The day before
09:51our final training showcase,
09:53the drill instructor
09:54seated all of us in a circle.
09:55Everyone had to join
09:56the formation march,
09:57but talented students
09:58could volunteer
09:59for an extra performance.
10:01Naturally,
10:02Stella volunteered first.
10:03She wore her white
10:04spaghetti strap mini dress
10:05over tiny white shorts,
10:07leaving just enough hidden
10:08to stir the imagination.
10:09Once she began dancing,
10:10I realized her scent
10:12had grown more than
10:12ten times stronger.
10:14The moist sheen of her skin
10:15agitated the boys further.
10:16Even the drill instructor
10:17flushed under her
10:18teasing performance.
10:19Across the circle,
10:20sunscreen was visible
10:21on Logan's face and arms.
10:23Then I glanced sideways
10:24and spotted the same white residue
10:25around another boy's lips.
10:27One boy had it on his arm.
10:29Even the tall,
10:29handsome student in back
10:30wore a bright smear
10:31across his collarbone.
10:35Stella had overloaded
10:36the sunscreen with that spice.
10:38Once the mixture
10:38touched someone's body,
10:40washing could never
10:40fully remove it.
10:41Her dance ended
10:42to an explosion of cheers
10:43across the field.
10:44A possessive shadow
10:45crossed Logan's face
10:46as though the crowd
10:47were reaching for something
10:48that belonged to him.
10:49Two seconds later,
10:50he strode forward,
10:51knelt on one knee,
10:52and raised an expensive
10:53diamond ring.
10:54Stella, marry me.
10:57I swear you will be
10:58the only woman I ever love.
10:59Stella shook with excitement.
11:01Sweat pushed through
11:02the sunscreen,
11:02spreading its perfume
11:03through the air.
11:04Yes, I will!
11:05Silence swallowed
11:06the entire field.
11:07Before long,
11:08one person shouted
11:09in celebration.
11:11Scattered applause
11:11followed,
11:12though reluctance
11:13showed on every face.
11:14From the edge of my vision,
11:15I saw all color drain
11:16from the drill instructor's face.
11:18Clear streaks of sunscreen
11:19marked his neck as well.
11:20This was about
11:21to become entertaining.
11:23A long while passed
11:24before the instructor
11:25finally cut in.
11:26Apparently,
11:27he could not stand
11:27another second of it.
11:29Have you decided
11:29who will lead
11:30your formation tomorrow?
11:31There's nothing to decide.
11:33Stella will lead, obviously.
11:34Every other boy
11:35agreed the moment
11:35Logan finished speaking.
11:37They hated that
11:37she had accepted
11:38his proposal,
11:39yet on this point
11:39they were remarkably united.
11:41The drill instructor
11:41nodded in acknowledgement.
11:44Come with me then.
11:47I'll brief you
11:48on tomorrow's performance
11:49in March.
11:49The rest of you,
11:50stay here and rest.
11:52Stella was still floating
11:53on the happiness
11:53of the proposal.
11:54After nodding,
11:55she shared one affectionate
11:56glance with Logan
11:57before walking away
11:58behind the instructor.
11:59Logan watched them
12:00cross into another
12:00training area
12:01and disappear around
12:02a corner.
12:03Only then did he give
12:03the other boys
12:04a triumphant look
12:05and sit down beside me.
12:07His very first words
12:08were a threat.
12:09Listen carefully, Chloe.
12:11If my parents ask
12:12about Stella,
12:13watch what you tell them.
12:15Try to come between us
12:16and I'll ruin
12:17your family's spice
12:17business too.
12:19So he had not forgotten
12:20what my family did
12:20for a living.
12:21Yet last time,
12:22he refused to believe
12:23anything I said
12:24about that particular spice.
12:25Love truly could
12:26blind a person.
12:27It had blinded me before
12:28and it had done
12:30the same to him.
12:31I honestly believe
12:31you belong together
12:32and I hope you stay
12:33together for life.
12:35Stella is my closest friend
12:37so why would I ever
12:38hurt her?
12:39How could you
12:40think that of me?
12:41My response left him
12:42with nothing to say.
12:43Only after an awkward
12:45silence did he lower
12:46his head.
12:47You'd better be
12:47telling the truth.
12:48Stella and the drill
12:49instructor finally returned
12:50half an hour later.
12:51Logan hurried forward
12:52and took her hand.
12:53As she nestled against him,
12:54the instructor turned.
12:55Thick smears of sunscreen
12:56covered his palm and arm.
12:57He rubbed at them
12:58while walking,
12:59desperate to blend
13:00the white marks
13:00into his dark skin
13:01before anyone noticed.
13:03Our gazes collided.
13:04Guilt made him
13:05look away first.
13:06My spirits immediately lifted.
13:07Then I studied Stella,
13:09still surrounded
13:09like a celebrity.
13:11The sunscreen coating
13:11her face and body
13:12had thinned,
13:13though she still
13:14appeared fresh and soft.
13:15But beneath the sugary
13:16perfume,
13:17a weak odor of decay
13:18had entered the air.
13:19The moment was almost here.
13:20On showcase day,
13:22Stella ignored
13:22the standard uniform
13:23and wore a miniskirt
13:24Logan had ordered
13:25especially for her.
13:27She looked fairer
13:28and more delicate
13:29than she ever had before.
13:30The moment she marched
13:31our group onto the field,
13:32applause and cheers
13:33crashed across the stadium
13:35like thunder.
13:35That's Stella at the front.
13:37She looks like she's glowing
13:38from the inside.
13:39Her skin seems so soft
13:40and bouncy.
13:41One touch and I could
13:42die satisfied.
13:43Quiet.
13:43Haven't you heard Logan proposed?
13:45Keep talking like that
13:45and he may come after you.
13:47Logan served as our
13:48class sports representative.
13:49He marched behind Stella
13:51with his chin lifted in pride.
13:52My eyes stayed on the back
13:53of Stella's neck
13:54as sweat dampened it
13:55and my heartbeat quickened.
13:57The temperature had climbed
13:57to 107 degrees Fahrenheit.
13:59The spice's poison
14:00had now spread
14:01to its absolute limit.
14:02As our formation
14:03neared the center of the field,
14:05Logan called out.
14:06March forward!
14:07Every face turned
14:08toward the main platform.
14:09Stella froze midway
14:10through the change in step.
14:12A wave of shocked noise
14:13swept through the audience.
14:14Why is Stella bleeding
14:15from her face?
14:16What's oozing from her leg?
14:18Is it pus?
14:20It's revolting.
14:21The others too!
14:22Logan's face is the pain!
14:23Whispers rose from all sides.
14:26Confused students
14:26in our formation
14:27turned around.
14:28They found Stella
14:29clawing wildly at her face,
14:30her eyes filled with terror.
14:31My face!
14:32Why does it itch so badly?
14:34Everything itches!
14:35Logan help me!
14:37Why am I bleeding this much?
14:39Somebody help!
14:40Logan's eyes widened
14:42in disbelief.
14:43He moved toward her
14:43on instinct,
14:44but pus and blood
14:45ran from her face,
14:46arms and legs.
14:47Every exposed patch
14:48of skin was rotten.
14:49The surrounding chatter
14:50grew louder.
14:51Disgust twisted Logan's face.
14:53Then an itch began
14:53crawling over his own body.
14:55He looked down
14:55and realized he was
14:56digging his nails
14:57into his arm
14:57without any control.
15:00And he was not
15:00the only one.
15:02More boys in our group
15:03then noticed changes
15:04in their own bodies.
15:05Decay had appeared
15:06around their lips
15:06and across their palms.
15:08What happened to that group?
15:10Several of those guys
15:11have skin rotting off.
15:12Stella's whole face
15:13is ruined.
15:14And what is that smell?
15:15It's horrible.
15:16I can't.
15:16I'm going to be sick.
15:17Hers is the worst.
15:18Could this be
15:19an illness?
15:20That single question
15:21sent panic
15:22racing across the field.
15:23It was showcase day
15:24and every exit
15:25from the field
15:26had been sealed.
15:26No one could run
15:27even if they tried.
15:29The university officials
15:30fled the main platform
15:31leaving only the host
15:32shouting into the microphone.
15:34Where is the medical team?
15:36Get these students
15:37to the clinic
15:38immediately!
15:39The medics looked over
15:40uncertainly
15:41but not one of them
15:42stepped forward.
15:45That smell is decaying flesh.
15:49What did you put on yourselves?
15:51How did your skin
15:52get this bad?
15:52The boys whose skin
15:53was breaking down
15:54started to panic.
15:55After exchanging looks
15:56they all focused on Stella
15:57at the head of the formation.
15:59Not one patch of healthy skin
16:00remained on her body
16:01yet her nails kept tearing
16:02at the wounds
16:02as she screamed without pause.
16:04Help me!
16:05Somebody please!
16:06The itching is killing me!
16:10Logan where are you?
16:11Your family has money!
16:12Get me to a hospital!
16:13Now!
16:15What Stella did not know
16:16was that Logan
16:16was hardly better off.
16:18The flesh around his mouth
16:19had deteriorated
16:20until speech
16:20was almost impossible.
16:21while the puss on his palms
16:23made him die.
16:24What is happening to me?
16:26Who poisoned me?
16:27Where's my phone?
16:28I need a hospital!
16:31After finally finding his phone
16:33he discovered
16:34stabbing pain in every finger.
16:35He could not hold
16:36the device at all.
16:37The girls in the crowd
16:38were first to notice a pattern.
16:39Could this really be a disease?
16:41None of the girls are affected.
16:42Every person rotting is male.
16:44No!
16:44Stella is female
16:45and no one is worse than her.
16:47Uneasy glances
16:47passed through the crowd.
16:49Moments later
16:49the girls huddled together
16:50all speaking at once.
16:52I stood in their midst
16:53watching coldly
16:54as more puss
16:55seeped out of Stella's body.
16:56Only 20 minutes earlier
16:57she had been a radiant
16:58campus queen.
17:00Now she resembled
17:01a hideous creature.
17:02Logan continued
17:03muttering curses
17:03a short distance away.
17:05Every few curses
17:06ended in a moan
17:07until all that remained
17:08was helpless fury.
17:12Call my family for me.
17:14$10,000.
17:15No.
17:16Make it $20,000.
17:17A student dared
17:18to move toward the phone
17:19only for the others
17:20to hold him back.
17:21Are you insane?
17:22What if the phone
17:22carries it too?
17:23Of course it's contagious.
17:24Otherwise,
17:24why is their group
17:25the only one affected?
17:26The university officials
17:27on the platform
17:27were calling for ambulances.
17:29Closest to the live microphone,
17:31the host accidentally
17:32shouted what he had just heard.
17:33Other departments
17:34have cases too?
17:35And the instructors?
17:37Isn't that the instructor
17:38from your department?
17:41Logan stopped scratching
17:42and froze where he stood.
17:44He and the other boys
17:45turned together
17:46and saw that boys elsewhere
17:47were starting to rot as well.
17:49Redness filled
17:49even the drill instructor's eyes.
17:51He ground his teeth
17:52while clawing wildly
17:53at his mouth and arms.
17:57Chloe,
17:57Stella is your best friend, right?
17:59And Logan is your ex.
17:59You must know something.
18:00Is this some illness
18:01or something else happening?
18:02We're only freshmen.
18:03We can't die here.
18:04She's right, Chloe.
18:05My boyfriend's hand
18:05is rotting too.
18:06If you know anything,
18:06tell us now.
18:09I can't be certain,
18:11but something bothered me earlier.
18:14Did she die here?
18:16Every boy whose skin is decaying
18:18seems to have had contact with Stella.
18:20You mean boys who touch Stella?
18:22Ethan Clark!
18:23You claimed you weren't interested in her,
18:24so explain that!
18:25You were sneaking around
18:25with another woman behind my back!
18:27Ethan went rigid
18:28as the skin over his wrist
18:29and hand deteriorated.
18:30Then some memories struck him
18:31and he began screaming abuse at Stella.
18:34So you caused this?
18:35I touched your face once
18:36and now I'm rotting!
18:37What did you use?
18:38Give me the antidote!
18:39Every other boy stared in shock,
18:41especially Logan.
18:42His already twisted face
18:43darkened with rage.
18:45Stella?
18:45Tell me how many other men
18:47you've been involved with.
18:48The relentless itch
18:49had pushed Stella
18:49close to madness.
18:51Terror from Logan's shout
18:52sent her crumpling to the ground.
18:53Pus pulled around her
18:54while the stench of decay
18:55rolled off her entire body.
18:58Stella!
18:59Out of nowhere,
19:00the instructor rushed in
19:01and drove a foot into her shin.
19:03He kept clawing his own arm,
19:04jaw-grinding tight.
19:05You had a boyfriend
19:06and still led me on?
19:09Were you trying to take me down with you?
19:11Give me the antidote
19:12or you're dead!
19:13Hand over the cure!
19:14You're disgusting!
19:15I must have been blind
19:15to ever idolize you!
19:18More and more boys
19:19closed in around Stella
19:20while Logan remained
19:21completely still.
19:22His back faced us,
19:23but its rigid line
19:25told me he had finally shattered.
19:26As the only son of a wealthy family,
19:28Logan had been spoiled
19:29since childhood
19:30and carried enormous pride.
19:32He had never failed
19:32to obtain anything he desired.
19:34He had even pursued me
19:35mainly because
19:36my predicted SAT score was high.
19:38Hoping our relationship
19:39would make him look impressive,
19:40I had foolishly mistaken
19:41his grand pursuit for devotion
19:43and agreed to date him.
19:44Unfortunately,
19:45college had barely started
19:47before he grew tired of me.
19:48His attention then shifted to Stella
19:50with her pale skin
19:52and sculpted hourglass figure.
19:53She accepted him immediately
19:55and before training even ended
19:57she accepted his proposal too.
19:59To Logan,
20:00every easy victory
20:01proved how irresistible he was.
20:03Today that pride
20:04had been smashed beyond repair.
20:05The campus queen he flaunted
20:07had seduced countless men
20:08and passed her condition to them.
20:10His precious girlfriend
20:11was filthy and deceitful.
20:14I'm finished.
20:16If this can't be cured,
20:17my parents will destroy me.
20:18I barely caught Logan's low muttering.
20:21Then he spun around
20:22and fixed his eyes on me.
20:24Chloe,
20:25I need that family ointment,
20:26the one made from your inherited recipe.
20:28He rushed toward me as he spoke.
20:29The other girls scattered.
20:31Before I could dodge him,
20:32his hand locked around my wrist.
20:33The red bottle in your backpack.
20:35That's the ointment I want.
20:36Hand it over.
20:37I stared at him,
20:38stunned.
20:40That red bottle held the ointment.
20:42I had used to cure Stella
20:43in my previous life.
20:45How could Logan possibly know about it?
20:49Why did you stay silent this time?
20:52Suddenly everything made sense.
20:54Logan had returned
20:55from our previous life too,
20:56but his memories had awakened
20:58at this exact moment.
20:59The decaying sores across his face
21:01turned my stomach.
21:05I have no idea
21:06what you're talking about.
21:07Yes, you do.
21:08Otherwise this time,
21:09you wouldn't...
21:11The ointment!
21:12Give it to me now!
21:15Ambulance sirens drew steadily closer.
21:18Several medics in full protective suits
21:20pulled Logan away,
21:21then checked on me with concern.
21:22Are you hurt?
21:23We're taking them to the
21:24disease control center for isolation.
21:26For safety,
21:26would you like to come too?
21:27No, I...
21:27I won't be isolated!
21:28Chloe, we're running out of time!
21:29Give me the ointment!
21:30They dragged him away
21:31before he could say more.
21:32By the time I looked again,
21:33Stella and every boy with decaying skin
21:35had been loaded into ambulances.
21:36University officials ordered security
21:38to disinfect the ground
21:39while advisors hurried everyone
21:40back to their dorms.
21:41What ointment did he mean?
21:43If it can help these students,
21:44hand it over as soon as possible.
21:45Saving lives comes first right now.
21:48Every eye seemed fixed on me
21:49and whispers began moving
21:50through the crowd.
21:51What was Logan talking about?
21:52Does Chloe have an antidote?
21:53Or did she cause this?
21:54She hated that Logan chose Stella
21:56so she poisoned her
21:57and every man who touched Stella
21:58began to rot.
21:58That's monstrous!
22:01All moisture vanished from my mouth.
22:03My fingers shook as I took a tube
22:05of antibiotic ointment
22:06from my pocket.
22:08Is this what he meant?
22:09I often got hurt as a child
22:11and this always worked on broken skin.
22:12I used it when Logan injured himself
22:14playing basketball too.
22:15Please take it.
22:16I hope it helps my classmates.
22:21This is ordinary antibiotic ointment.
22:23It treats scraps
22:24but it cannot repair skin
22:25this badly decrazed.
22:26Stop gathering here!
22:28Go back!
22:28Open your dorm windows
22:29and be careful!
22:32Once the ambulances disappeared,
22:34the students dismissed
22:34the whole scene with a wave.
22:36All that drama over regular ointment?
22:38I knew Chloe couldn't do anything special.
22:40She couldn't even keep her boyfriend.
22:43Clutching the tube,
22:44I trailed behind everyone
22:45with the slightest curve at my lips.
22:47This time I would never play
22:49the helpful fool again.
22:50Once the showcase ended,
22:51I moved to a different dorm.
22:52Nearly two weeks passed
22:54and Logan and the others
22:55still had not returned to campus.
22:57Whenever anyone asked our advisor,
22:58she only shook her head,
23:00equally confused and without news.
23:01The boys' parents and Stella's parents
23:03visited the university several times.
23:05Logan's family came with 20 lawyers,
23:07pressing the university for answers.
23:09One day after class,
23:10we left the department building
23:11to find the parents
23:12gathered outside the library,
23:13shouting through megaphones.
23:14My daughter was perfectly healthy
23:16before coming here.
23:17Two weeks of training did this to her.
23:19The university is responsible.
23:22Bring out the dean and pay us!
23:25A crowd of students gathered
23:27to see what would happen.
23:28Stella's mother kept her chin raised
23:30when the grim officials appeared,
23:31acting as if the payout
23:32were already hers.
23:33One official simply raised
23:35a medical report
23:35where everyone could see it.
23:38The hospital has finished
23:39its investigation.
23:41Your daughter used
23:42homemade sunscreen
23:43containing a spice
23:44now confirmed to be poisonous.
23:46She coated her entire body
23:47in excessive amounts every day,
23:49causing widespread skin decay over time.
23:51As for the boys,
23:53their skin touched the sunscreen
23:54on her body,
23:55so each suffered
23:56to a different degree.
23:57Stella's parents stared at him,
23:58their eyes wide with shock.
24:00Before they could respond,
24:01a furious parent sees them.
24:02Your daughter's sunscreen did this,
24:04and you still brought us here
24:05demanding money?
24:06Have you no shame?
24:08You're not leaving!
24:09Our children suffered because of her,
24:10and your family will pay for it!
24:12You just got it here!
24:14From the edge of the crowd,
24:15I met the eyes of Logan's parents.
24:17They asked me to visit
24:18the disease control center with them.
24:23Chloe, please see him.
24:24You and Logan once cared deeply
24:26for each other.
24:26That vicious Stella
24:27lured him into this,
24:28so he is a victim too.
24:29He calls your name
24:30every day at the center.
24:31He truly wants you there!
24:33I gave them no answer.
24:34See my son,
24:35and your family
24:35gets a two million dollar contract.
24:37Who turns away business
24:38that arrives at their door?
24:40With a nod,
24:40I masked up and went with them
24:42to the disease control center.
24:44At the center,
24:45Logan lay before me
24:46with bandages covering
24:47every inch of him.
24:48Everyone else left
24:49until the hospital room
24:50held only the two of us.
24:52The sight of me
24:53made him struggle to rise,
24:54but the bandages
24:55held his body firmly in place.
24:57You came back too,
24:58didn't you?
24:59Otherwise,
24:59you could never watch us die.
25:01Last time,
25:02the moment you recognized
25:03the poison,
25:04you warned Stella!
25:05And what did that warning earn me?
25:08Every one of you
25:08accused me of jealousy
25:09and of deliberately
25:10excluding her.
25:12You stole every opportunity
25:13meant for me
25:14and handed it to Stella.
25:15You knew the research team
25:16was my dream,
25:17yet you gave her my place.
25:21You treated me as worthless.
25:22You had your parents
25:23and their business with my family,
25:24dumped me,
25:25and immediately chased Stella.
25:26Now you fault me
25:27for not saving you?
25:28But when her skin decayed,
25:29you still gave Stella
25:30the ointment.
25:30You were kind then,
25:31which means this time you can.
25:32This time,
25:33I'm not making that foolish choice.
25:35I saved her with the ointment,
25:36but her skin could not be restored.
25:38She blamed me,
25:39then killed me
25:40with sulfuric acid.
25:41Why would I repeat that mistake
25:42and put myself in danger again?
25:44Stella killed you,
25:45not me.
25:45I always loved you.
25:46She tempted me.
25:47Blame that sunscreen,
25:48not me.
25:49Chloe, please.
25:50I'm my family's heir.
25:51I can't live disfigured.
25:58Help me,
25:59and I swear I'll marry you.
26:00The Prescott family
26:01will support your business
26:02from now on.
26:03Chloe, please.
26:04Why are you frightened,
26:05Mr. Prescott?
26:07Disfigurement requires
26:07heavy, repeated exposure
26:09and intimate contact.
26:11If you were never intimate
26:12with Stella,
26:13time alone will heal you.
26:14No, Chloe.
26:15I was confused
26:16and made a mistake.
26:17Don't leave me behind.
26:18Chloe!
26:20Chloe!
26:21Stella was being kept
26:23in the room immediately next door.
26:24I covered my face,
26:25entered,
26:26and found pus continuing
26:27to soak through her bandages.
26:29Her nurse wore full protective gear
26:30and fought back wretches
26:31while wiping it away.
26:33Why would a young woman
26:33use something like this
26:34just to be pretty?
26:35Training lasted only two weeks.
26:37Did you really need
26:37that much sunscreen?
26:38Look what your handmade product
26:39did to you
26:40and to all those classmates.
26:41I can't take the smell.
26:43How much did you apply?
26:44Stella ignored every word
26:45and kept her empty gaze
26:46fixed on the ceiling.
26:50I gave a quiet cough.
26:52The nurse saw me,
26:53took the hint,
26:53and stepped outside.
26:55You have the nerve
26:56to come here, Chloe?
26:57I heard everything Logan said.
26:59Your family sells spices.
27:01You recognized the poison
27:02in my sunscreen
27:03and never warned me.
27:04You're vicious.
27:05You deserve to die.
27:06I hope you rot!
27:11I pressed my mask into place
27:13and savored the sight of Stella.
27:15Fine.
27:16Here's the truth.
27:16I've already died once.
27:18I gave her a short account
27:19of our previous life.
27:21Anger blazed more fiercely
27:22in her eyes.
27:23However violently she struggled,
27:24she could not raise
27:25even one finger.
27:26Threats were all she had left.
27:27I killed you once
27:28and I can do it again.
27:29Stop looking so pleased.
27:31When I get out,
27:32I'll make you pay.
27:32A laugh almost escaped me.
27:34When that bucket of acid
27:35poured over my head,
27:36I had promised myself
27:37that survival would mean
27:38making Stella pay.
27:39In this life,
27:39I had kept that promise.
27:41You're planning too far ahead.
27:43My family's ointment
27:44kept you alive last time.
27:45This time,
27:46there is none.
27:47You also buried yourself
27:49in sunscreen
27:49and turned the poisonous spice
27:50into perfume.
27:51So use whatever time remains.
27:53You likely have only days
27:55and one or two more
27:56won't matter.
27:57Still,
27:57as your best friend,
27:58I have one last thing to say.
28:01This time,
28:03you're the one who will pay
28:04with your life.
28:10The two rooms rang
28:11with furious yelling
28:12as I departed
28:12and the sound was music to me.
28:14My advisor had messaged me.
28:15A professor wanted promising freshmen
28:17for a laboratory team
28:18and asked whether I was interested.
28:20I immediately replied yes
28:21and booked a ride back to campus.
28:23Before leaving the center,
28:24I walked past
28:24the other students' rooms.
28:26Some cases were mild,
28:27others were severe,
28:28and several students
28:29had already been discharged.
28:30Those outcomes
28:31no longer concern me.
28:32My new college life
28:33had begun
28:33and the future ahead
