ati ) Dutchess wakes up from a terrifying nightmare about Destiny’s shocking pregnancy… but one unexpected message makes her wonder if it was really just a dream.
THE DREAM THAT FELT TOO REAL
A Cinematic Suspense Story
SCENE 1 — THE QUESTION
The evening sky is slowly turning dark.
A quiet house sits beneath the fading light, surrounded by an uneasy silence.
Dutchess stands outside, staring toward the road.
She has no idea that within minutes, her entire world is about to collapse.
The front door suddenly opens.
Destiny steps outside.
Dutchess turns toward her.
At first, she says nothing.
Then her eyes move toward Destiny’s stomach.
She freezes.
Something about Destiny looks different.
Dutchess takes a slow step forward.
DUTCHESS
“Destiny… wait.”
Destiny stops.
She looks at Dutchess but avoids eye contact.
Dutchess studies her face.
Then her stomach.
Her expression changes completely.
DUTCHESS
“Are you pregnant?”
Silence.
The question hangs heavily in the air.
Destiny looks down.
For several seconds, she doesn’t answer.
Dutchess’s heart begins pounding.
DUTCHESS
“Destiny, I’m asking you… are you pregnant?”
Destiny finally looks up.
Her eyes are filled with fear.
DESTINY
“Yes.”
Dutchess takes a step backward.
Her face goes completely pale.
DESTINY
“I’m pregnant.”
SCENE 2 — THE SECRET
Dutchess can barely process the answer.
DUTCHESS
“What?”
Destiny remains silent.
Dutchess shakes her head.
DUTCHESS
“No… that doesn’t make sense.”
She looks at Destiny again.
DUTCHESS
“How could you be pregnant?”
Destiny says nothing.
Dutchess’s confusion quickly turns into anger.
DUTCHESS
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
Destiny lowers her eyes.
DUTCHESS
“When did you find out?”
Destiny doesn’t answer.
DUTCHESS
“How long have you known?”
Still nothing.
Dutchess steps closer.
The silence begins to feel unbearable.
DUTCHESS
“Who is the father?”
Destiny looks at her.
Her lips tremble.
Then she finally speaks.
DESTINY
“It’s your boyfriend.”
Dutchess freezes.
Her entire expression changes.
DUTCHESS
“What did you just say?”
Destiny starts crying.
DESTINY
“Your boyfriend…”
Dutchess shakes her head.
DUTCHESS
“No.”
DUTCHESS
“No, Destiny. Don’t say that.”
Destiny wipes her tears.
DESTINY
“I didn’t want this to happen.”
Dutchess stares at her.
DUTCHESS
“What happened?”
Destiny struggles to speak.
DESTINY
“He forced himself on me.”
THE WORDS HIT DUTCHESS LIKE A SHOCK.
She becomes completely still. For a moment, everything around her seems to disappear.
Dutchess struggles to control her emotions.
DUTCHESS
“You’re lying.”
DESTINY
“I’m not.”
Dutchess suddenly loses control of her emotions.
She raises her hand and strikes Destiny.
Destiny immediately steps back in shock.
Silence.
Dutchess stares at her own hand.
For a second, even Dutchess looks shocked by what she has done.
SCENE 3 — EVERYTHING CHANGES
Suddenly, the lights around Dutchess begin to flicker.
Dutchess looks around.
DUTCHESS
“What is happening?”
The entire scene begins to blur.
The house.
The driveway.
The evening sky.
Everything starts disappearing.
Dutchess reaches toward Destiny.
DUTCHESS
“Wait!”
Destiny’s voice echoes from somewhere far away.
DESTINY
“Dutchess…”
The sound becomes louder.
DESTINY
“Dutchess!”
DUTCHESS SUDDENLY OPENS HER EYES!
SCENE 4 — THE REVEAL
Dutchess sits upright in bed.
She is breathing heavily.
Her heart is racing.
She looks around the room.
The room is completely normal.
There is no Destiny standing outside.
No argument.
No pregnancy.
No confession.
No boyfriend.
IT WAS ALL JUST A DREAM.
Dutchess slowly puts her hand over her chest.
She tries to calm herself.
DUTCHESS
“It was a dream…”
She closes her eyes for a moment.
Then opens them again.
DUTCHESS
“Just a dream.”
But something about it feels different.
The dream felt too real.
The emotions.
The fear.
The anger.
Destiny’s voice.
Every detail remains trapped inside Dutchess’s mind.
She walks toward the window.
Outside, the night is quiet.
DUTCHESS
“Why would I dream something like that?”
THE FINAL TWIST
Suddenly, her phone lights up on the bed.
A notification.
Dutchess walks over and picks it up.
Her expression changes.
The message is from Destiny.
Dutchess stares at the screen.
Her fingers tremble.
She opens the message.
Dutchess stops breathing for a moment.
She reads the message again.
And again.
Her face slowly fills with fear.
Because now she doesn’t know what scares her more—
Was the nightmare completely meaningless?
Or was the dream warning her about something that hasn’t happened yet?
Dutchess slowly lowers the phone.
The room falls silent.
She looks toward the dark window one more time.
And somewhere outside…
A shadow moves.
FADE TO BLACK.
TO BE CONTINUED…
