My senior year was supposed to be the start of everything.
My award-winning screenplay, "Echo Park", had captivated a young producer named David, and my dream film school, USC, was within reach.
But then, everything shattered.
My SAT scores inexplicably plummeted, a disaster that strangely coincided with my best friend, Olivia's, perfect score.
A year later, Olivia's mysteriously acclaimed screenplay, almost identical to mine, landed her the very deal David had offered me.
Every ambition, every relationship, everything I cherished, she systematically stole, leaving me in a devastating spiral of depression that ended in an accidental overdose.
As darkness consumed me, a terrifying truth slammed into my consciousness: Olivia, clutching a shimmering "Script Switcher," used it to rewrite my fate, three times over.
How could my closest friend harbor such monstrous envy, possessing a magical device that allowed her to meticulously dismantle my entire life?
Now, I'm back.
Reborn on the exact day my downfall began, but this time with a chilling certainty and a ruthless plan.
Olivia may still have her notorious Switcher, but I have the memories of a life lost and a cold resolve to make her steal nothing but my most spectacular failures.
