Who's cursed?

A Uni Student

David Evanston was a typical lazy college student, barely scraping by in his classes and always on the lookout for an excuse to ditch his responsibilities. His dating life wasn't much better, a string of fed-up exes had earned him a reputation as a compulsive liar. But all of that changed when he woke up with a mysterious curse.

As David sat up in bed, nursing a pounding headache, he heard a voice in his head: "YOU HAVE ABUSED THE TRUST OF OTHERS FOR YOUR OWN BENEFIT AND MUST BE PUNISHED." The words swirled around him like an angry mob, making him clamp his eyes shut and grab his head. When the pain finally subsided, David was left reeling, and with a cryptic warning: "YOU SHALL NEVER LIE AGAIN, OR SUFFER TO FACE THE TRUTH OF YOUR DECEPTIONS."

Shaken, David stumbled out of bed and got dressed in his usual baggy T-shirt and jeans. He ran a hand through his messy brown hair before heading to the shared bathroom, only to find his roommate Rick already in the shower. When Rick told him to wait his turn, David shot back with "You'd think I would be used to waiting for the shower living with you girls" expecting the usual banter back.

But it wasn't Rick who responded, it was a soft, feminine voice saying "Yeah, you should let a girl enjoy her showers in peace." David's mind went blank as he frantically looked around, wondering if he'd somehow ended up in the wrong dorm. But when he glanced back at his open bedroom door, he realized with growing unease that everything seemed to be exactly as it was supposed to be... except for Rick.

David stood frozen outside the bathroom door, trying to process what had just happened. Was this some kind of prank? A side effect of last night's partying? But deep down, he knew better, something fundamental had shifted in his reality. And he had a sinking feeling that it was all connected to that mysterious voice and its ominous warning.

With a sense of trepidation, David approached the bathroom door again. "Uh, Rick?" he called out tentatively. "You okay in there?"

The response was immediate: "I'm Rachel, dumbass. Who the hell is Rick?"
