My Bestfriend Stole My Boyfriend
ep 1: Shattered Reality
Kai's hospital room. Sunlight streams through the window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. Kai lies in bed, her eyes fluttering open. Disorientation washes over her as she takes in her surroundings sterile white walls, the rhythmic beep of a heart monitor.
Kai
*weakly* Mom? Where... Where am I?
Melissa
*rushing to her side* Kai! My darling, u're awake! U've been in a coma for... well, it's been a while.
Kai
*confused* A while? How long?
Melissa
3 years, 2 months.
A wave of nausea washes over Kai. 3 years? It feels like only yesterday she was laughing with Jo, her boyfriend. She tries to sit up, wincing at the pain.
Melissa hesitates, her eyes welling up. She gently guides Kai back down.
Melissa
Sweetheart... there's something u need to know.
A flashback montage plays, showing snippets of Jo and Akira together over the past 3 years: laughing, shopping, attempting social events, looking increasingly happy and in love. The montage ends with a shot of Jo and Akira's engagement announcement in a local newspaper.
Back in the hospital room. Melissa breaks the news, her voice trembling.
Melissa
Jo... Jo and Akira... they're engaged.
Kai stares blankly, the words registering slowly. A cold dread creeps into her heart. She remembers Akira, her best friend, the one she confided in about everything. The betrayal stings more than the physical pain.
Kai
*whispering* No... that can't be...
Kenjie, her dad enters the room, his face etched with worry. He embraces Kai, offering a silent comfort.
Kenjie
Oh sweety... I'm so glad u're awake.
Kai
Dad... what happened? How did this happen? How could Jo... and Akira...?
Kenjie avoids her gaze, unable to fully explain the complex web of events that led to this point. He knows that Kai needs time to process this devastating news.
Later that day, Tian, Jo's friend, visits. He looks uncomfortable, avoiding eye contact. He tries to explain Jo's perspective, but his words ring hollow and unconvincing.
Tian
Look, Kai... Jo... he... he loved u. But things changed. After the accident... well, he was heartbroken, and Akira was there for him.
Kai doesn't buy his explanation. She feels a deep sense of betrayal and confusion. The love she thought was unbreakable has shattered into a million pieces.
Akira arrives, her face pale and filled with guilt. She attempts to apologize, but Kai's pain is too raw. The once-unbreakable bond between them is irrevocably broken.
Akira
Kai... I'm so sorry. I never meant to...
Kai
*interrupting, her voice laced with anger* U stole him from me.
Kai is left alone in her hospital room, the weight of betrayal heavy on her chest. The rhythmic beep of the heart monitor is the only sound, a constant reminder of her shattered reality. She stares out the window, lost in thought, wondering how to piece her life back together. The road to recovery will be long and arduous, both physically and emotionally.
quick question remains to all reader: "can she ever forgive Jo and Akira? And more importantly, can she forgive herself?"
See yah.. For the next Episode ( ◜‿◝ )♡
ep. 2: Shattered Trust
Kai's hospital room - Day
Kai sits up in bed, the sterile white walls a stark contrast to the turmoil in her heart. The engagement ring Akira flashes a gaudy diamond is a physical manifestation of her betrayal. Melissa, her mother, fussed over her, offering weak tea and quiet comfort.
Melissa
*softly* Take it easy, sweetheart. It's going to take time.
Kai stares blankly at the ring. The memories 3 years, 2 months of love with Jo flood back, bittersweet and agonizing.
Kai
*whispering* How could they? Akira... she was my best friend.
Melissa
Sometimes, people make mistakes, Kai. Don't let this define u.
Jo paces restlessly, a half-empty bottle of beer on the coffee table. The engagement ring glints on Akira's finger as she sits, seemingly unconcerned.
Jo
*anxious* Are u sure is right? Kai... she's still...
Akira
*cutting him off* She's awake. So what? She's weak, vulnerable. Besides, we're engaged now. This is our life.
Jo hesitates, guilt warring with self-preservation.
Kenjie, Kai's father, sits behind his imposing desk. Tian, Jo's friend, stands before him, his face etched with concern.
Tian
Mr. Kenjie, plz. Jo isn't a bad guy. He's just... confused. He needs help.
Kenjie
*coldly* Help? He stole my daughter's heart, her future. He betrayed her trust while she was unconscious. This isn't about confusion, it's about consequences.
Kai sits on a park bench, Akira's betrayal a heavy weight on her soul. She sees Jo walking past. He avoids her gaze. The pain is palpable. The sting being replaced is fresh.
Kai's hospital room - night
Kai receives a single red rose, delivered anonymously. A note is attached "I'm so sorry, Kai." The handwriting is familiar. It is from Jo.
This episode ends on a cliffhanger as Kai contemplates the note, unsure whether this is a genuine apology or another manipulation.
