THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT

𝑯𝑶𝑾 𝑴𝑨𝑫 𝑪𝑨𝑵 𝑭𝑨𝑴𝑰𝑳𝒀 𝑫𝑹𝑨𝑴𝑨 𝑮𝑬𝑻?

August 17, 1984. A small, quiet suburban town lies deep into the state of Olkahoma, where a small family of three reside. Taken from an oblivious point of view, they seem to be a small yet stable family.

Yet don't let this fool you.

The parents, Ashley & Matthew Merritt, are going through as what can only be described as a situationship, ten years into their marriage. Their fourteen-year-old daughter Angel, is trapped in the middle of it all. Having to deal with the burden of a failing marriage between her parents, her sympathetic counselor Adjani Martinez is the only person she can speak up about her mental stability with. But when he gets burnt alive in a church fire, skinning him and revealing muscle tissue and is now in the hospital Ashley works at, turns Angel's mental health into a spiral.

In the middle of her mental health crisis, she finds out terrifying things about herself that she vowed to tell nobody.

"Adjani, when I saw the television's shine of blue, pink and white, something inside of me began to crack. I ran to the bathroom, and my back began to rip open, revealing wings. But they weren't like angel wings, they w-were made up of television channels, I don't know how to describe it. I didn't feel anything, I was immune to the pain. As my stomach ripped open, throughout all of the channels my body was made up of, I saw the faint white silhouette of a boy as lost as I. There is a boy living inside of me, Adjani. Everyday since the incident, I would hide out in the bathroom and cut myself open to reveal what I am truly made up of. But I'm tired of this. I'm not going to hide out in the bathroom for nobody anymore. I'm not going to repress the tv's glow. I'll be whom I am truly meant to be. Long live the new flesh."
