INT. DIMLY LIT ROOM – NIGHT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2wfenF2JEr
The muffled, broken voice of a girl crying fills the silence. Her sobs echo through the room. She is alone. Her breath is shaky. Her words come out in soft, choked fragments.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ36A7WgiE1Q
KHUSHI (V.O.)
"I don’t know if I did something wrong... I can’t remember. How could this happen to me? Was it my fault? Maybe it was. Who told me to go to that party so late? Who told me to take a drink from someone I barely knew? I drank it like it was nothing. Please, God, let this be a nightmare. Let me wake up and find everything back to normal. How can I face my parents? How do I even begin to tell them?"

INT. HOUSE – LIVING ROOM – EVENING
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClHQhwiT29
Khushi paces nervously. The atmosphere is heavy. Her phone buzzes repeatedly. Notifications. Photos. Videos. It’s already on the internet. She can’t hide it. She has to tell them before someone else does.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWzWD7NndT
KHUSHI
"Mom... I need to talk to you about something."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit38ByDWS8
MOM (sharply)
"No, you answer me first. Why didn’t you call me this morning like usual? Where were you last night? You’re about to get married! Start acting like it. Where did these disgusting habits come from? Did we raise you like this?"
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5GSrfJC6H
KHUSHI (pleading)
"I went to the party I told you about. I asked for your permission. Mummy, please listen to me. At the party... I drank something. After that, everything went blank. I woke up in a room with a boy. I don’t remember what happened. I swear I didn’t do anything. It wasn’t my fault. It’s already on social media. Everyone's judging me, but I didn’t ask for this."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSguzhHOi1X
Before she can say more, her mother slaps her. Once. Twice. Then again.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4S8e22KSjy
MOM (screaming)
"I don’t know how you came from my womb. You should’ve died before you were born. Were you sent to ruin us? I warned you so many times! Who will marry you now? You’re already dark, you wear glasses, have a thick nose and acne scars. The day you were born, I felt I had given birth to a curse. And THIS is how you repay me? I should have ended it then. Why were you even born?"
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlcBlTT5Vi
MOM (coldly)
"You’re not stepping out of this house. Wait until your father gets home. He’ll deal with you."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTstt26HlF
She grabs Khushi’s wrist, throws her to the floor, and locks her in her room.

INT. HALLWAY – LATER
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9F0QuLDmI
Mom is breathing heavily on the couch. Sudhi, Khushi’s younger sister, brings her medicine.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbg5j268cX
SUDHI
"Mom? Are you okay? Did someone upset you?"
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUVYcP2zDx
MOM (bitter)
"Your sister. A disgrace. She’s ruined the one thing she had—her reputation. We found a groom with so much difficulty. And now she just slept with someone? If this marriage doesn’t happen, the only thing leaving this house will be her corpse. Don’t give her food or water until she agrees. That’s the only way. Don’t tell the groom. If no one knows, it’s fine. Right? I’m furious beyond words."

INT. LOCKED ROOM – NIGHT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlgCJdEThP
Sudhi knocks softly.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvX3hPatVAY
SUDHI
"Didi, are you awake? I brought water and snacks. Please eat. Did you scratch yourself again? You shouldn’t. What’s happening? Please say something. It hurts when you stay silent."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiViBKEpZWO
SUDHI (softly)
"I know it wasn’t your fault. You were drugged. You’re the victim. Stop blaming yourself."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpShqTg8LI
KHUSHI (whispering)
"Go back. Dad’s awake. He’s watching. Don’t talk. Take the food and leave. If Mom finds out, he’ll punish you."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHenw7NNHI
SUDHI
"But he was calm. He tried to calm Mom down."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYgnQKJWO9D
KHUSHI (firm)
"Don’t trust him. Ever. Did you forget what I showed you? You’re being kind because he spoke nicely? He’s the one who tore us apart. He broke Mom. Do you know why she has no hair? Because he didn’t like it. Why no traditional clothes? Because he hates them. Why we had to be top in studies and sports? Because he’s ashamed of us. He doesn’t even talk to us directly. He talks through Mom to make her look bad.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXL4RmDI9x
Mom wasn’t always like this. She became like this here. She should’ve chosen divorce. He only cares about his parents. Not us.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlgVFHnREx
When she was 8 months pregnant with you, he left her outside the house for three days. No food. No water. He didn’t even call a doctor when she gave birth to me. That’s why she hates me. I’m the scar of her pain.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ72ErttAKx
So don’t believe him. He’ll destroy you too."

INT. HOUSE – SIX DAYS LATER
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCKhSeKtRu
KHUSHI’S POV
She hasn’t eaten in days. The pain in her stomach is unbearable. She feels dizzy, on the verge of collapse. She knows if she stays, she’ll die. She has to escape.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8tNKp1dxU
Her mom lets her out to use the bathroom. She decides to make a noise, a distraction—hoping her mother, in her forgetful state, leaves the key behind.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe0KDbzpjj
MOM (spitting)
"So? Do you still think you were innocent? A normal daughter would have killed herself by now. You didn’t even cry. Oh right, you don’t have emotions."

INT. KHUSHI’S ROOM – NIGHT
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw7PDrpeEEw
Khushi finds the key. She unlocks the door. The kitchen is locked, but under the couch cushion, she finds 200 rupees. She searches the living room for her phone—her mother had taken it. She finds it.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSKO1JH3qq
The front door is locked. She sneaks upstairs and softly calls the neighbor’s dog. It sees her but doesn’t bark. She uses the adjacent wall to climb into the empty neighboring house, crosses it, and escapes. She thanks the dog and runs.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1D37Z2wt8
She runs through the dark streets, barefoot, with her phone. No food. Every shadow feels dangerous. She reaches the bus stand, takes a bus, and gets off near her hostel.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB6rAuwtMuy
She collapses at the entrance. In the darkness, she sobs uncontrollably. The suicidal thoughts come again. She almost gives in. But she holds on. She sleeps in tears. The next morning, the thoughts return. But something snaps.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTqn3KD5jh
KHUSHI (to herself)
"Who did this? Who drugged me? Who destroyed my life? I need to find out."

105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCePu3P74aX
She visits the hotel.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyeO29xjzQH
Asks about CCTV footage. They refuse.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRE267CQYbn
Staff tells her she needs police permission.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvMeAW4YPT
She calls Shruti for advice. Maybe just to talk. Shruti tells her to file a case.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZvHmN0LYp
She goes to the police. Faces constant questions, shame.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdrgHN0CaQ
Cries for days. Hears people whispering everywhere.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFZr2eriui
Her classmates gossip. Nobody sits next to her. She is isolated.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIDC78YD7K
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVWrIiOzT2
Three months pass. Alone, she keeps pushing forward.

INT. SHRUTI’S HOUSE – CONFRONTATION
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxmBGnj9Cs
KHUSHI (angry)
"Why? Why would you do this to me?"
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxewjzHPA83
SHRUTI (cold)
"Because no one is truly yours. People stay because they need you. Your fiancé? Ankur? He never loved you. You were just convenient. Wake up. This is life. Accept it. Move on."
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDj97EfQvtv
KHUSHI
"But why? It was just a joke. Why would you destroy my life?"
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAO97XI7pCW
SHRUTI
"Because none of us are real, Khushi. We’re just creations in your mind."

INT. HOSPITAL ROOM – MORNING
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1N27WaSh5
Khushi wakes up in bed, paralyzed. Hours pass. A nurse enters for a routine check. Khushi doesn’t understand what’s happening.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSsgzWR9N4
Weeks later, she learns the truth: she was in a bus accident. Her father never existed. Her mother is alive and loves her deeply. She is their only child. She never had a friend named Shruti.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrwhlq7Doh
Everything... was in her mind.

📝 Author’s Note:
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6MEIFxJrO
This story is not meant to follow a traditional narrative.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueFDpdsnGB
It’s told from the perspective of a girl who is experiencing severe trauma and mental breakdown. That’s why some details feel incomplete, confusing, or even unrealistic—because they’re not grounded in reality. They’re happening **in her head.**
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeg9GpZS7XH
This is a hallucinated version of events, shaped by guilt, shame, and suppressed memories. She doesn’t remember full names. People disappear or appear without logic. Timelines are broken. Even her “friend” turns out to be imaginary.
105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GLWgTz2qU
The gaps are intentional. The story reflects how trauma distorts time, people, and memory. It's one-sided because trauma often is. She blames herself, stays silent, and builds an entire world around that shame—until her mind collapses under it.
