INT. BETHANY’S APARTMENT – NIGHT π
The room is dim, lit only by the soft glow of a desk lamp. Shadows crawl across the walls. The silence is broken by a sudden, sharp ringtone.
1. The Call That Can’t Be Avoided
Bethany froze, eyes locked on the screen. Sharra’s name flashed in bold, demanding attention. Her thumb hovered, heart pounding. She had avoided this call all day, rehearsing excuses in her head, but now there was no turning back.
BETHANY
(taking a shaky breath)
Okay… just… answer it.
She swiped.
BETHANY
(voice trembling)
Hello?
SHARRA (O.S.)
(cautious, slightly cold)
Bethany?
Bethany’s fingers tightened around the phone.
BETHANY
Sharra… I… I need to say something.
A brief pause. Sharra’s voice softened fractionally.
SHARRA
Go ahead.
2. Confession in the Shadows
Bethany closed her eyes, trying to steady herself.
BETHANY
I messed up… I made a huge mistake. Please… forgive me.
SHARRA
(exhaling slowly, disbelief lacing her voice)
You’re calling me… now… after everything?
BETHANY
(voice barely above a whisper)
I know. I waited too long. But I can’t keep this inside anymore. Because of you… Larry hasn’t spoken to me at all.
A sharp silence followed. Bethany could almost feel Sharra weighing every word.
SHARRA
(careful, probing)
Because of me? Explain.
BETHANY
It’s my fault. I let my pride take control. I said things I shouldn’t… assumed too much… and pushed Larry away. I know you had nothing to do with it, but your presence… everything you represent… made me react wrong.
SHARRA
(sharp, measured)
You mean… you blamed me for what you did?
BETHANY
(winces)
Yes. And I hate myself for it. I just… didn’t know how to fix it, how to talk to Larry without making it worse.
3. The Weight of Truth
Silence stretched. Bethany could hear Sharra shifting on the other side, subtle creaks and faint hums marking her presence.
SHARRA
(cold, deliberate)
Do you realize Larry isn’t speaking to you because of your actions… not because of me?
BETHANY
(nods, voice tight)
I know that now. And I’m so sorry. I see it clearly… but he’s hurt. I’ve hurt him.
SHARRA
(interrupting, firm)
Bethany. Stop. Stop trying to explain. Just say you’re sorry. That’s all you can do for now.
Bethany’s shoulders sagged.
BETHANY
I’m sorry. Truly. I never meant to hurt him… or anyone.
SHARRA
(actions matter more than words)
Enough talking. Actions… that’s what counts.
4. The Warning and Resolve
Bethany nodded, even though Sharra couldn’t see her.
BETHANY
I understand. I want to make things right… if he’ll let me.
SHARRA
(firm, a mix of warning and understanding)
This isn’t just about Larry. It’s about you, Bethany. You need to understand your actions. Fix yourself before fixing anyone else.
BETHANY
(voice trembling)
I understand. I promise.
SHARRA
(reluctant sigh, layered)
Good. But remember… mistakes like this carry consequences far worse than you think.
BETHANY
I won’t let it happen again.
5. Silence Before the Storm
Another pause. The tension presses down over the line, heavy and suffocating.
SHARRA
I hope you mean that. Larry deserves honesty. And so do you.
BETHANY
(whispering, determined)
I do. I mean it.
SHARRA
I’ll be watching. Make it count.
The line goes silent. Bethany grips the phone, heart racing. She stares at the ceiling, mind spinning with what she said, what she didn’t, and what comes next.
BETHANY (V.O.)
The real challenge isn’t over. Larry… the truth… my mistakes… the storm coming… I have no idea how fierce it will be.
The phone lies quietly on the table, a small but powerful reminder: words have consequences. And the storm is only beginning. π
