Ati ) “Brooke is now so fed up with her life that she has decided to end it to escape from the pain.”


The room is almost completely dark. Brooke sits alone on the edge of her bed. Her phone lies beside her, filled with memories. But tonight, she doesn’t want to read any of them.
She remembers Larry humiliating her. She remembers Bethany making her feel worthless. She remembers Chicago disappearing from her future. And she remembers Isa walking away.
Young Brooke waits beside a window. She keeps watching the door. She keeps hoping her mother will return. But nobody comes.
Brooke enters Larry’s room. Her eyes move across everything around her. Then she notices something hidden away. Something that changes the night completely.
Her phone suddenly lights up. One unknown number has sent her a message. “YOU DON’T KNOW EVERYTHING.” Brooke slowly looks toward Larry’s desk.
A locked drawer finally opens. Inside is an envelope with Brooke’s name on it. One word is written across the back. MOM.
Brooke looks at the photograph inside. Her entire expression suddenly changes. A shadow appears beneath the bedroom door. Then a familiar voice whispers her name.
