Length: 1 Minute
Gender: Female

A woman stands in front of a mirror, her reflection filled with fierce determination. Her voice is strong, unwavering, as she makes a vow to herself. Her eyes are intense, burning with a newfound resolve as she stares herself down, ready to take on whatever comes next.

I’ve spent my whole life watching other people take what should have been mine, but not anymore. I’ve been the sidekick, the background character, the one who claps while someone else takes the spotlight. But something snapped in me, and I’m done standing in the shadows. I see how they look at me, how they think I don’t notice—their whispers, their smirks, like I’m not good enough, like I’ll never measure up. But they have no idea what I’m capable of.

Jealousy? Yeah, I feel it. But instead of letting it eat me alive, I’m using it. I’m letting it fuel me, push me harder, make me stronger. They think they’ve got all the power, that they can just walk all over me. But they’re wrong. I’m taking control, rewriting the story, and this time, I’m the one calling the shots. I’ll do whatever it takes—whatever it takes—to get what I deserve. And when I do, they’ll all see. They’ll see the strength they never knew I had, the determination they underestimated.

I’m done playing nice. This is my life, my time, and I’m not letting anyone else write my ending. Not anymore.
