Pam thought her high school reunion would be a simple walk down memory lane, but when an old prom tape surfaced, her curiosity took a deeper turn. The grainy footage revealed unexpected emotions and secrets, forcing her to question everything she thought she knew about those close to her.
At the reunion, Caleb was uninterested, while Connor was his usual warm self. Pam, feeling a mix of nostalgia and frustration, stumbled upon an old VHS tape labeled “PROM.” When she tried to play it, Connor hesitated but agreed, though he was clearly uneasy.
The footage began with cheerful scenes of young Connor at prom, but then it took a turn. As Connor and his mom drove to pick up Pam, they saw her sitting on her porch, crying, convinced Caleb wouldn’t show. Connor, about to confess his feelings to Pam, was left standing alone when Caleb arrived and Pam ran to him with a smile.
In that moment, Pam realized that Connor had wanted to tell her he loved her that night. But he never did, choosing instead to let her be happy with Caleb. The revelation shook Pam, and she sat beside Connor, her heart torn.
“Maybe in another life,” she whispered.
“Maybe,” Connor replied, his smile bittersweet.
As Pam lay awake that night, she realized how much she had overlooked and began to question her understanding of love.
