In my old life, the woman I loved begged me for money. She wanted to bribe officials to save her boyfriend after he was thrown into prison. I tried to talk her out of it. I did not want her ruining her life with a crime. I refused. Instead, I hired the best lawyer money could buy and got his sentence reduced to the bare minimum. Ten years later, when he was finally released, the first thing he did was shove me off the rooftop. As I lay dying, she stood above me, looking down with cold satisfaction. "So you wouldn't lend me the money?" she said. "Then take your precious cash and rot in hell." When I opened my eyes again, I had gone back in time. This time, I did not argue. I did not hesitate. I pulled out a contract and had her sign a loan agreement on the spot. You wanted money, didn't you? I gave it to you. May you two stay tightly bound together, forever and always, never to be separated.
