1. Mom, I'm leaving for college in twenty minutes, your phone's blowing up.
2. I'm awake, tell me what happened, I'm seeing the video.
3. Abby posted a TikTok of a locked box labeled 'Kayla'.
4. She promised she'd never show that box, I don't understand.
5. Relatives are DMing asking if I was switched at birth.
6. Delete those DMs, don't reply, don't give them anything.
7. People are calling my dorm already, it's racking up views.
8. You didn't see what I saw in the comments, it's dangerous.
9. What did you see?
10. They spelled out names and an old town, someone recognized it.
11. That's our old town—why is that on the box?
12. Because we changed everything when you were born.
13. You changed my name?
14. Yes, after threats, we legally altered your name and records.
