My Future Self Warned Me About My Boyfriend

Synopsis

The day before the SATs, I recorded a video for the version of me ten years down the road. And I actually reached her on the other end. "Did I get into the combined bachelor's and master's program at Stirling? Is Madison still my best friend? "If it all went smoothly, I should have finished grad school and gone from campus to wedding dress with Alex, right? "Maybe we even have a sweet little kid by now. I already picked out a nickname for the baby." My face went hot as I let myself imagine all of it. But the second my future self heard Alex's name, she blew up. "Alex loaded your pencil case with disappearing ink pens so Madison could take the top score in the city. "You didn't get into Stirling, and you had to repeat the year. "Alex acted heartbroken and agreed to do long distance with you. "Then he went public with Madison at school, and they became the couple everyone envied. "Sophie, you are such a fool. He cheated on you, and you thanked Madison for looking after your boyfriend."
