INT. BETTY'S BEDROOM - NIGHT
Betty sits on her bed, her room shrouded in darkness save for the soft glow of her bedside lamp. Tears at the corners of her eyes as she grapples with the painful realization settling in her chest like a heavy stone.
BETTY:
I'll never be with James... I wasn't good enough for him.I wasn't enough then and i'm not now
Her voice cracks with emotion as she speaks the words aloud, the weight of her self-doubt crushing her spirit. In the silence of her room, the echoes of her insecurities bouncing off the walls, amplifying her pain.
BETTY:
I'm not skinny enough, not good-looking enough... I'll never be what he wants.
A sob escapes Betty's throat as she succumbs to the overwhelming sense of inadequacy that gnaws at her from within. She thought she could ignore the whispers of self-doubt, but now they roar in her ears, drowning out any hope she had left.
The realization that her love for James will never be reciprocated cuts deep, leaving a jagged wound in her heart that refuses to heal. She longs to be enough, to be worthy of his love, but she knows deep down that it's a futile wish.
With a heavy heart, Betty buries her face in her hands, the tears flowing freely now as she mourns the loss of what could have been. She knows she must find a way to move on, to accept that James will never be hers, but the ache in her chest tells her that letting go will be the hardest part of all.
As the night stretches on, Betty's tears eventually subside, leaving her drained and exhausted. But even in her darkest moments, a glimmer of hope flickers within her, whispering that perhaps one day, she'll find someone who loves her just as she is.
FADE OUT.

The memory of their laughter echoes in her mind, transporting her back to Spanish class, where they sat side by side, giggling uncontrollably at some inside joke only they understood.
