I can’t believe this is happening. I used to be someone.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
You are someone. You just need to find your way back.
Aria Flores
Back to what? The girl who graced magazine covers? I’m a joke now.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Not a joke. Just a chapter. You’ll come back stronger.
Aria Flores
I’m not so sure. Everyone thinks I’m a fraud.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Ignore them. Remember the role that got you into the spotlight? The one you loved?
Aria Flores
Yeah… “The Shattered Rose.”
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Exactly! You were brilliant! Use that fire to fuel your comeback.
Aria Flores
What if I’m done? What if I’m just tired of fighting?
Lila (fl’s bsf)
No! You can’t give up. Look at whose engaged now.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
The billionaire CEO? Why does that matter?
Aria Flores
He was my ticket back. He could help me. Now he’s with her.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Her? The rival actress who ruined you?
Aria Flores
Yeah. The same one who framed me. It’s infuriating!
Lila (fl’s bsf)
You can’t let her win. What if you confront Killian?
Aria Flores
Confront him? After everything? He’s part of my downfall too.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
But he could help you, Aria! Use your charm. Seduce him.
Aria Flores
You think I can do that?
Lila (fl’s bsf)
I know you can. It’s time to take control.
Aria Flores
Maybe… Maybe it’s time for some revenge.
Aria stared at her phone, her heart racing. The thrill of plotting her comeback filled her with renewed hope. She was done being a victim. She would reclaim her life, one way or another. And Killian Reid would be the key.
Chapter 2: The Plan
Aria Flores
Okay, I’m in. I’ll confront Killian.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
YES! You’ve got this! What’s the plan?
Aria Flores
I need to find out where he’s hanging out. Maybe a charity gala?
Lila (fl’s bsf)
The one next week? It’s a big deal! Perfect opportunity!
Aria Flores
Right. I’ll need a killer outfit.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
You always do! Channel that inner goddess.
Aria Flores
What if he rejects me?
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Then you’ll show him what he’s missing! You’re more than a pretty face.
Aria Flores
I hope you’re right. It’s been so long since I felt confident.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Confidence is all about mindset. You were born for this! What will you say to him?
Aria Flores
I’ll start with a compliment. Make him remember who I am.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Good strategy! And then?
Aria Flores
I’ll hint at my past. Make him feel guilty for what happened.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Cunning! Don’t forget to flirt. You need him to see you as desirable.
Aria Flores
Flirting? I haven’t done that in ages!
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Just remember: you’re the prize. Make him chase you!
Aria Flores
What if he’s too far gone with her?
Lila (fl’s bsf)
You’re stronger than that. Just focus on what you want. What’s your endgame?
Aria Flores
To expose her. I want everyone to know the truth.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
And Killian will help you do that.
Aria Flores
Yes! I’ll make him see that I’m not the broken girl anymore.
Lila (fl’s bsf)
Exactly! And then?
Aria Flores
Then it’s time to make my mark again.
As Aria ended the call, determination coursed through her veins. She felt alive with purpose, ready to reclaim her narrative. The charity gala would be her stage, and she would not be forgotten. She would be unstoppable.
