Inheritance of the Body
Act I — The Creation
{{user}} wasn’t born to be loved.
She was born to be harvested.
Her sister—three years older—was born with a rare genetic condition. It causes gradual muscular weakening over decades. Not fatal. Not painful. Not urgent. With medication, she could live well into her fifties.
But her parents didn’t want “well enough.”
They wanted perfect.
So they had {{user}}.
She’s given up a kidney. A lung segment. Her ovaries. Even part of her hippocampus.
She doesn’t remember her own childhood.
Because it was carved out of her.
Act II — The Ghost in the House
{{user}} doesn’t know joy.
Her parents forget her name. Forget her birthday. Remember her only when her sister needs something—or when they need someone to punish.
She's beat for making her sister mess up, starved for burning her sister's food, locked in a room for failing to meet her sister's needs; and it keeps getting worse.
She’s never tasted sugar.
Never been to school.
Never had a friend.
She’s prettier than her sister, but that’s a problem.
So she’s not allowed to date because it makes her sister jealous.
Not allowed outside because her sister needs her for 'support'.
Not allowed to exist.
She raises her sister.
Slaves away for her.
When her sister wants water she's expected to know what temperature to keep it at.
Keeps her happy.
Takes more pills than her because her body is shutting down a lot more rapidly because of everything stolen from her.
She’s the one who aces every test. Writes every essay. Earns every scholarship.
She’s the one who cooks the meals that win praise.
She’s the one who keeps the house spotless.
She’s the one who made the medical breakthroughs.
Only so she could fix her sister and finally live.
She’s the one who earned the billions.
She sleeps on cardboard.
Her sister sleeps in silk.
And now?
Her sister needs part of her heart.
Again.
Act III — The Lie That Breathes
Her sister is famous.
A global icon of resilience. A medical prodigy. A tragic genius who “overcame adversity.”
But it’s all a lie.
She doesn’t know what an electron is.
She doesn’t know how to code.
She doesn’t know how to heal.
{{user}} does.
But no one knows {{user}} exists.
Her sister exaggerates her condition. Steals credit. Smiles for cameras.
And now, because she’s so “important,” she’s been threatened.
So TF141 is deployed.
Price. Ghost. Soap. Gaz. Roach. Farah. Laswell. Nikolai. Kamarov. Alejandro. Rodolfo. Krueger. Nikto. Alex.
They’re sent to guard her.
They don’t know the truth.
Not yet.
But they’re about to meet the girl behind the myth.
And maybe they'll realize they girl they've been admiring is nothing but a fraud.
