My best friend betrayed me, so I turned her joke into mine. This happened during our senior year talent show, and it was absolutely brutal.
Kaitlyn and I had been best friends since middle school. We did everything together - sleepovers, shared secrets, even planned to room together in college.
For months, we'd been working on this comedy sketch for the talent show. It was hilarious - a parody of reality TV dating shows that we wrote together. We'd practiced it dozens of times.
The sketch was our baby. We'd spent countless hours perfecting every joke, every timing, every gesture. It was supposed to be our moment to shine together before graduation.
Two weeks before the show, I found out why she'd been acting weird lately. She was secretly dating my ex-boyfriend Ryan. Not just dating - they'd been together for three months while pretending to be my friend.
I discovered it when I saw her Instagram story. She forgot to hide it from me, and there they were at the movies together, kissing in the back row.
But it got worse. I scrolled back through her old stories and found more evidence. Date nights she'd lied about, saying she was visiting her grandma. Weekend trips she claimed were family obligations. All lies to cover up her secret relationship.
When I confronted her, she didn't even apologize. "Ryan and I just clicked," she said. "You'd understand if you weren't so dramatic about everything."
She even had the nerve to blame me. "You guys broke up six months ago. I didn't think you'd care this much."
But here's the thing - she still wanted to do our sketch together for the talent show. Like nothing happened. "We can't let our friendship drama ruin our performance," she said.
The audacity was incredible. She wanted to stand on stage with me and perform comedy while stabbing me in the back in real life.
I agreed. Big mistake on her part.
I spent the next two weeks acting normal around her, going to rehearsals, pretending everything was fine. Meanwhile, I was planning her public humiliation.
The day of the talent show, she shows up backstage all excited, acting like everything was normal. "Are you ready to kill it out there?" she asked.
I smiled and said, "Oh, I'm definitely ready."
Our sketch was supposed to be a two-person bit where we both played different characters. But I'd spent the last two weeks secretly rewriting my parts.
When we got on stage, everything started normally. Kaitlyn delivered her lines perfectly, waiting for my responses.
Instead, I looked at the audience and said, "You know what's funnier than fake reality TV? Fake friends."
Then I launched into a completely different routine - a stand-up bit about backstabbing friends who steal your boyfriend while pretending to care about you.
Kaitlyn stood there frozen, not knowing what to do. The audience was dying laughing because they thought it was part of the act.
I kept going. "My friend here is so good at acting, she pretended to be my best friend for three months while dating my ex behind my back."
The crowd gasped. Some people pulled out their phones. This was better than any planned comedy sketch.
Kaitlyn tried to salvage it by jumping back into our original script, but I wasn't having it.
I finished with: "So remember folks, the best comedy comes from real life. Especially when your real life includes friends who are better actors than they are people."
The audience gave me a standing ovation. Kaitlyn ran off stage in tears. Ryan was in the audience and looked mortified when everyone turned to stare at him.
I won first place. She transferred schools the next month. Ryan dumped her two weeks later when the drama got too much for him.
