PROLOGUE
[Scene opens with Olivia texting in an anonymous online group]
Olivia
(Typing…) Ever felt like you're the villain of your own story?
[No one responds for a few seconds. Then, a reply pops up.]
Bella
Lmao, what did you do now?
Ana
Lemme guess, you bullied someone again?
Mana
Or cried after bullying them?
Olivia
Shut up, idiots. I was just thinking... what if I never get to be the ‘main character’? What if I’m just that annoying side character people tolerate?
Mana
Bruh, stop overthinking.
Bella
You do act like a villain sometimes tho ngl.
Ana
And villains are hot. So, what’s the problem?
Olivia
The problem is... I don’t know who I am anymore.
[The group chat goes silent. For the first time, they don’t have a sarcastic response.]
[Flashback: Olivia’s childhood]
She was born into a family where her grandmother wasn’t happy to see a girl. But her grandfather? He was different. He gave out sweets in the entire hospital, declaring that his granddaughter was special. From that moment, she was his favorite.
Sleeping beside him, laughing with him, feeling safe in his arms—those were her best memories. Until one day… he was gone.
She was only five. She didn’t understand what death meant. She just knew he wasn’t coming back.
And after that… everything changed.
[Scene shifts to Olivia playing at home while relatives visit]
She was playing, minding her own business when a pair of hands touched her in a way that didn’t feel right.
She was too young to understand, but something inside her screamed wrong.
It happened again. And again. Different people, different places.
At first, she thought it was normal. Then, when she grew older, she realized it wasn’t. And that’s when the self-hatred started.
Maybe it was her fault? Maybe there was something wrong with her?
[Flashback ends. Back to the present, Olivia staring at her phone.]
Olivia
Yeah, just thinking about stuff.
Mana
Must be illegal thoughts.
[She stares at the screen, her fingers hesitating before typing.]
Olivia
What if I’m always going to be a failure?
She deletes the message before sending it.
Because deep down, she knows no one has the answer.
