The TV show that I'm on doesn't exist II

Part One
I was in Phoenix for the last four days visiting family. I had tried to avoid talking about Myst Hill for the rest of the visit, but I was still racking my brain trying to figure out what the hell was going on. I looked through my phone on the plane ride back to California, scrolling through the pictures of me and the cast on set, on the red carpet, at the Grammys, and at the Teen Choice Awards. If this was some sort of set up, it sure was elaborate as hell. How could all of these things be fake? All my friendships with these huge celebs, and all of these memories that I had of them; how could they all be fake?
I had decided against using these photos as proof; my family would only ridicule me more and accuse me of photoshop or something. But I had the proof, it was in the pictures. Me sitting in my chair that read “Silvya Davenport- Myst Hill†In bold black letters, like the show’s intro. So what was going on? It was driving me crazy.
I went straight home after I arrive in Cali. I was recognized by a few fans at the airport and took a few pictures with them as I thought to myself could all of this really be a scam? When I got home I took a hot shower and scrolled through all of my emails.
I was wanted on set tomorrow to film my character’s comeback, and my hair stylist had booked me an appointment for early in the morning in order to change my hair up a bit for the show. It was driving me crazy to think that all of this could be fake. But how? How would they get that many people to play along? It was insane.
I was lying in bed, driving myself crazy over this when a text came in. I glanced at my phone screen, thinking it was probably a text from Myrina, my stylist, making sure I had seen her email, but it was from my brother Conrad.
CONRAD: So are you going to tell me what really happened to Silvya? I can’t wait another two weeks for a new episode!!! :)
I stared at the message. What was this? Why would Conrad pretend not to know about my show while I was visiting, but all of a sudden act like his denial never happened?
ME: I thought you didn’t believe I was on the show? ;P
I stared at the little dots at the bottom of the screen, waiting for his reply.
CONRAD: Are you kidding? I’m Myst Hill’s #1 fan!!!!
So it had been a joke. My family thought it would be fun to mess with me. Of course, I was the youngest, they had been playing pranks on me my whole life. Why would this be any different? I didn’t reply to Conrad, and instead fell asleep.
My alarm woke me up at 5:15 am this morning, and I walked around my house half asleep, gathering my purse, my coffee, my phone, and some other stuff that I liked to have with me on set. I made it to my hair appointment at 5:50, and Myrina got started right away. My character was coming back with short hair and bangs. I sat in the chair, scrolling through my phone as I waiting for her to finish up my bangs.

I scrolled through the articles, pushing back the idea of this being a scam. This was way too intricate. My family had to be kidding, right?
I got to the set of Myst Hill at around 8 am, and was greeted by one of my cast members, Emily Gray.
“Hey, nice to have you back!†She said as she gave me a hug.
I was always a bit taken aback when I hear Emily speak; she was British but played an American character, and her accent always caught me off guard since I was so used to her speaking with an American accent.
Emily was a very well-known actress, who became famous because she was one of the main characters in a very popular film franchise from a few years back.
“So did you enjoy your holiday?†She asked.
“Yeah, except my family acted like The Myst didn’t even exist.†I said, rolling my eyes.
Emily stared at me for a bit before she started laughing as well.
“Do they always mess with you like that?†She asked.
“Well I hadn’t seen them in a while, but my brother texted me last night wanting to know spoilers about the show, so I knew they were just messing around with me while I was there.†I replied.
Emily nodded, staring at me weirdly; like she was suspicious of something.
“What?†I asked.
“Nothing,†She shook her head, “I just think it’s odd that your family would do that.†She replied.
“They used to do it all the time,†I shrugged.
“Hey Bri! Wardrobe needs you!â€
One of the costume designers said as he walked by, dragging a box behind him.
“I gotta go, see ya!†I waved to Emily as I made my way to my dressing room.
Donovan Jones was there, looking through a rack of clothes in front of him.
“Hey, Don.†I said.
“Hey Bri!†He pulled out a jean jacket and threw it onto a nearby chair that already had a pair of jeans and a shirt on it.
“Put that on.†he said.
I grabbed the clothes and stepped behind the divider to change.
“Hey, Bri?†Don called from the other side.
“Yeah?†I asked, pulling the shirt on.
“I uh, I heard that you’re telling people about how your family doesn’t remember the show.†He said.
“Oh yeah, they were messing around and acting like it didn’t exist.†I said, stepping out from behind the divider as I pulled the jacket on.
“Listen, I shouldn’t be telling you this, but you need to stop bringing that up.†He said.
He handed me a pair of socks and boots.
“Why?†I asked, taking them.
He leaned in close to me, his face serious.
“Just listen to me, okay? Stop telling people that your family doesn’t remember the show. Don’t talk about that. If anyone else brings it up, simply tell them it was a joke that your family likes to pull on you, okay? Please promise me that you’ll stop talking about it.†He whispered.
I started at him, trying to see if he was joking too, but he wasn’t. He was being serious, and he looked scared.
“Alright.†I said.
He nodded and exited the room.
I sat down on a chair and pulled the socks and boots on.
“Hey, William wanted me to give you the script for next season.â€
I looked up to see one of the writers on the show hand me a script.
“Thanks!†I said.
I scanned through the script and stopped as caught sight of the second page. It wasn’t typed, but it was written out in William’s handwriting.
I scanned through the page, and then got up, walking around the set until I found William.
“Hey, what is this? I have to stay hidden from the public for a month? I can’t contact my family?†I asked him.
William turned around.
“Yeah, your character has to go through some major changes and if people saw you, then the secret would be ruined.†He said.
“But why? I thought she was making a comeback?†I asked.
William shrugged.
“What can I say? Anything can happen in Myst Hill.â€
I have a really uneasy feeling about this. I just can’t shake the feeling that something weird is going on, and I almost don’t want to know the answer to this, but do any of you know about Myst Hill? Does anyone know about this show at all?
