My name is Ethan. I was once an ordinary office worker, living a mundane nine-to-five life. My wife, Selena, and I had been married for two years, and our early days were sweet and warm. On weekends, we would go to the farmers market together to buy groceries. Back home, she would wash the vegetables while I cooked, and after dinner, we'd cuddle on the sofa and watch movies. However, all of this came to an abrupt end when her first love, Felix, returned home.Felix's appearance shattered the peace of our lives. Selena began making frequent excuses to go out, and her attitude toward me became indifferent. One evening, I came home from work and was met with a strong smell of gas as soon as I opened the door. Before I could react, everything went black, and I fainted. When I woke up again, I had gone back a week. I also realized that Selena had orchestrated the gas explosion to kill me for Felix. When I confronted her, she said coldly, "Felix isn't like you; he has a terminal illness. I want to be with him to fulfill his remaining wishes, and you, you have countless chances at rebirth.
From then on, I was trapped in a death loop. Selena's methods were endless. Sometimes she'd arrange for a car to hit me on my way to work, other times she'd poison my food. Each death is unbearably painful, and she always kills me the moment Felix dies, restarting the rebirth.
I tried to escape, changing cities and phone numbers, but Selena always found me. It's as if a pair of invisible eyes are constantly watching me; no matter where I hide, I can't escape her grasp.
After another rebirth, I returned to my home with Selena. Looking at our wedding photos on the wall, the happy memories of the past now pierce my heart like sharp blades. We smiled so brightly in the photos. Back then, we were planning to travel together and welcome a new life. But now, all of that has vanished.
Just then, the door burst open, and Selena rushed in. A flicker of surprise crossed her eyes when she saw me. She hurried to my side and embraced me, saying, "Ethan, you're still here. Thank goodness." As she spoke, she tightened her grip on my arm, as if trying to meld me into her very being. Anyone else would think she pitied me, but I knew the truth: she was terrified of never having the chance to fulfill their "One Hundred Little Things" promise with Felix.
Releasing me, she said with false sincerity, "Darling, just give me a little more time. After I help Felix finish the last few things, we can finally live our lives together." My heart ached with bitterness as I gently pushed her away. "Aunt made dinner. Will you be eating at home tonight?" I knew she would go to Felix, but I asked anyway.
Selena seemed to sense my coldness. She knelt down, took my hand, and tenderly stroked my brow bone with her other hand, her eyes filled with concern. The last time I died, she drugged me with an addictive substance and locked me in the bedroom. The pain was unbearable; I could only bang my head against the wall for relief. Eventually, my skull fractured, resulting in brain death. I've died so many times, but the last one was the most agonizing and painful. "Ethan, did it hurt terribly when you died last time? I'll make it quick this time; I won't let you suffer too much." Her words chilled me to the bone. In her heart, I was no longer her husband, merely a tool to fulfill her desires.
Just then, Selena's phone rang. It was Felix. She looked at me apologetically and went aside to answer. I overheard Felix crying on the phone as Selena gently comforted him. After hanging up, Selena said, "Felix needs me tonight; I have to go. Just eat by yourself." I was long accustomed to her choices, and responded faintly, "Understood." She picked up the cashmere coat from the sofa and turned to leave.
