Riri tam
( tears drop on her eyes )
A dimly lit room. The sound of faint whispers and harsh footsteps echo. RIRI TAM, a young sixteenth girl, sits alone at a small, cracked table in the corner, staring blankly at her reflection in a dusty mirror. Her hair is tangled, and her clothes are a bit too big, as if they were hand-me-downs. The sadness in her eyes is raw, like she’s been carrying it for years.
Riri tam
( still depressed because of what happened to the school yesterday.)
Riri tam
Every day is the same. A world that whispers I'm not enough… I was never enough
Riri tam
( she keep repeating it, while she's crying almost puffy her eyes )
(The door bursts open. AUNTIE storms in, her voice sharp and filled with bitterness.)
auntie bet
You think I don’t see what you're doing, huh? Fixing yourself up like you’re some kind of princess? Stop pretending like you matter.!
Riri tam
wh-what.. ( shaking )
Riri tam
(Riri winces at the words, but she doesn't fight back. She bites her lip, trying to hold it together.)
auntie bet
Look at you, all pretty on the outside, but just a waste of space inside. Just like your mother. You’re nothing but a pretty face, a decoration. You’ll never amount to anything. (mocking)
auntie bet

auntie bet

auntie bet

auntie bet

auntie bet
( push her body on the floor.)
auntie bet
tch! I shouldn't give you a house and food before.
Riri tam
(Riri tries to hold back tears. Her aunt leaves, slamming the door behind her.)
Riri tam
How can they see me like this? How can they see nothing but what’s on the outside?..
Riri tam
( she whispers while her head lower and crying.)
— a hour's later : riri fell asleep on the floor, she cry so much after hee auntie did that.
Her mind racing with thoughts. She grips a crumpled notebook filled with her daydreams—fantasy worlds, adventures, places where she could be more than just "pretty." She closes her eyes, wishing for a different reality.
Riri tam
"If only I could escape… escape to a world where I don't have to pretend to be something I'm not."
Riri tam
( whispers at her sleep.)
As the room grows quiet, the soft glow of moonlight illuminates her face. Slowly, the air around her begins to shimmer, faint golden sparks flickering in the corners of the room. The notebook pages flutter open, and a whisper of wind stirs the air. Riri’s hand twitches, sensing something—someone—calling her
"Riri… come… come and see… escape… escape the chains of this world…"
Riri tam
(woke up exhausted)
Riri’s eyes snap open. She looks around, confused, the whispering voice fading into the night. Her heart pounds in her chest. The air around her starts to spin, and she falls into a deep, peaceful sleep.
