Retrograde

Angela, a wealthy and stunning woman, believed her secret, dark past was well hidden. After creating a successful app that brought her immense wealth, she became a public figure, attracting attention even from those who despised her. Little did she know, her past had caught up to her in the form of a threatening ultimatum. Faced with the choice to obey an unknown blackmailer or face the consequences, Angela was forced into action. Jessica's panicked voice echoed as Angela dashed through the forest, the wind swirling around her, making the leaves dance like a mournful symphony. Nature's forces, rain and sunshine, seemed poised to collide, their distinct scents mingling in the air. Dark clouds gathered above, ready to unleash their downpour. Stopping by the riverbank, Angela placed a trembling hand on her racing heart. It felt like it would burst through her chest, her quiet sobs barely contained. Each beat reverberated in her ears, so loud she feared it might betray her. Could it be the same person, her recurring nightmare's villain, now standing before her, masked and wielding a knife? "Who are you?" Angela cried, turning to confront the menacing figure. Her memory, plagued by anterograde amnesia, left her questioning the identity of this mysterious stranger whose presence seemed to haunt her every waking moment.
