“An old but thoughtful wife is the best,” the 25-year-old man said during the wedding ceremony, until nightfall when he returned to his room with his 57-year-old wife. “An old but thoughtful wife is the best!”

– The 25-year-old man said with a big smile during the wedding ceremony, in front of hundreds of skeptical and sarcastic eyes. The 57-year-old bride, holding flowers in her arms, smiled kindly. She was successful, intelligent, and gentle like a mother, who had taken care of him every little thing since he was a student renting a room downstairs. Everyone thought this was a “marriage in exchange for property”, but he said: — No! I married you because I love you. You are the one who understands me best. But when nightfall, returning to the bridal chamber… everything suddenly wasn’t like he thought. He had just entered the room, the light hadn’t been turned on yet, when he heard the sound of the shower in the bathroom stop. He smiled and walked over to knock on the door when… the bathroom door opened slightly. And at that moment, his heart stopped beating. In the dim light, the 57-year-old wife stood with her back turned, her skin covered with stitches, black threads that seemed to have not been removed, running from her neck down her back, from her shoulders to her heels. There was a whole patch of skin on her ribs that was missing, as if it had just been grafted from somewhere. Not having time to hide it, she turned around, smiling very slowly: — Did I see it? He stepped back, trembling and asked: — Sis… what did you do to your body? She stepped forward, still wrapped in a towel, but her eyes were strangely sparkling: — I just… replaced the parts that no longer interested you, to make myself younger, more beautiful, more suitable for you… — This is the thigh from a 19-year-old girl. The belly is from a 24-year-old model who died in an accident… And the hands? The hands are from a ballet dancer… He was stunned, backed up against the wall, the terrifying question ringing in his head: “How much do you love me? And… how many other people have ‘contributed’ to this marriage?”

🕯️ Voice

He didn’t remember how many steps he took back. He only knew that cold sweat was pouring down his spine.

“His sister — his brother

“Yes, really…” — she smiled, taking a step closer.
The scarf deliberately .

Her body was like a patchwork , every piece was the same .

⚰️ Where she used to live

“You know?” she whispered, sitting down on the bed, as if telling a very sweet story.
“I know a plastic surgeon in your country .

He fell to the floor, his hands shaking.
All the memories of her absences, the bruises she covered with foundation, the old photos and vivid nightmares.

🔪 Love… and obsession

“I love you so much that…” — she stood up, opened the cupboard, and took out a locked wooden box.
“…I have prepared the missing part — a face . Just

He shouted:
“Enough! Enough! This is not love! This is madness!”

She turned back. Her eyes were no longer warm.
“No, you’re wrong… this is sacrifice. Other women only know how to put on lipstick, wear revealing dresses… but you? You changed your whole body — to keep me.”

🚪 Way Out… or No Way Out?

He jumped up and rushed to the door. But the lock had been changed . Outside, a ticking sound echoed — not a clock , but an electronic door timer.

She held the small remote control and slowly walked over:
“If you want to leave… you can. But only after understanding… you are also a part of me.”

He froze.
“What…?”

She raised her hand— a scar ran down the back of her neck.
“My heart… came from a man I loved when I was 30. They call it an organ transplant. But I call it: keeping love, forever.”

📜 Marriage or voluntary organ donation?

That night, the villa was silent except for the wind blowing through the second floor windows.

The next morning, neighbors found the lights off, the doors locked, and only a newly printed wedding letter hanging on the gate, with the words:
“Thank you for coming to the wedding. Everything… is now perfect.”

🩸 And from that day on, no one saw the 25-year-old groom appear again…
