A story begins with a character trying to make a major life decision. The character goes to sleep, and the next day the storyline splits in two. One thread of scenes follows the character showing their life if they had decided the big choice one way. The other follows the character showing their life if they had decided the big choice another way. Both paths involve unexpected downsides and upsides. Near the end of the story, the character hits their head in both storylines. For a moment, the character fully understands both realities and must choose which reality to return to.

The subplot that would add tension to the story is:
one in which the character’s decision has dramatically different effects on a dear friend in each reality.
This subplot introduces emotional stakes and consequences that deepen the character's dilemma, making the choice between the two realities more impactful and significant.
