Help RESIGNING! so that I can come back! BC

So I left my job 2 months ago, the work culture and CTO was very very toxic, couldn’t handle it.

So I get offer from a startup, nice start up, good work culture, good learning. I joined this startup 15 days back. Now I got an offer from a established mid size company whose pay is 35-40% higher, it’s a substantial amount so I signed their offer letter.

Now I wanna leave my current startup but I dont wanna burn bridges while leaving, I have a doubt that if things dont go well with the new offer, cause I left without serving notice period from the toxic one, so I have this paranoia that something might go wrong with the onboarding for the new offer. I dont wanna leave such that my current startup doesn’t even consider me for rejoining.

I want a solid excuse for resigning, such that even if after 1 week I want to return to A, they would consider me! I am saying this because I worked my ass off for 3 months to get a job and I got a good start up, nowadays it’s hard to find decent workplace, don’t wanna end up with nothing if something goes wrong with the new one!

HELP!! I was thinking about some family emergency so can’t continue, Any other solid reasons???

I was in similar situation last year, chose the startup over the midsize company with a pay cut, got laid off last week, imo, just say that you’ve currently been offered a job where you were previously on hold and would instead love to join that at this point in time, but would love to keep the door open should your situation change.
