00:00Squawk, I'm Rudy. Rudy. Who are you talking to? Oh, hi guys. I'm Naomi and this is Rudy
00:06Squawk stinky breath stinky breath. Hey, that's offensive stink guys
00:12I'll be right back in the meantime, please like and subscribe
00:16Hey y'all, I'm back
00:18And this handsome boy here is Rudy when I was five
00:22My grandmother got Rudy as a pet and he's been my best friend ever since but I was 11 when we lost grandma forever
00:29So Rudy is now my pet
00:31We live with my mom who raised me all by herself and is an amazing fashion designer and works really hard
00:38Nifty tie nifty tie squawk, but she never has time to go out and have a social life social life
00:45Squawk, no nifty ties. Don't be selfish Rudy just then I heard a noise outside of my window
00:51It was Leo the school bully and his goonies pushing around Dante Dante and his parents had moved in about a week ago across
00:58The street from me and he was in grade 5 2 but Dante was smaller than the other boys in our class
01:03And he wore glasses and had lots of acne which made him the perfect target for bullies
01:09You're like a science experiment gone wrong with those pimples, buddy
01:12I'm just practicing for Halloween gotta start early with the scary costumes, you know
01:16Suddenly Leo and his gang pushed Dante and dragged him away. We have to do something. Let's go
01:23Squawk Rudy and I stealthily trailed the boys to an abandoned house two blocks away
01:28We peeked inside and saw Leo and his boys harassing Dante Leo needed to be taught a lesson
01:34Rudy time to put on our spooky act. I opened the window slightly and Rudy crawled through
01:39He slid under a sheet and started flying around like a ghost
01:44I'm the ghost of parrot past
01:48The boy's face is drained of color
01:54As the boys ran out screaming I climbed in through the window and helped Dante up
01:59Thanks for helping me. You guys are awesome
02:01Let's go before real ghosts come from that day Dante Rudy and I were inseparable
02:08Dante basically became a member of my small family
02:10We played video games had all-night movie marathons
02:13And he even taught me how to ride a bike heck when we were 14, we even opened an animal shelter
02:20interesting people
02:21Interesting people. Are you saying I'm boring? He's just saying you're as interesting as watching paint dry
02:27Life was great the summer before high school mom Rudy and I even went to Paris for mom's first international fashion tour
02:34It was amazing
02:36I helped mom to outfit her models and even gave her a few designer tips because we were super busy
02:41I didn't have time to check in with Dante
02:43But I bought him a few souvenirs to make up for it after all he was my best friend and he'd understand right?
02:49But then something weird happened when we came back from Paris Dante suddenly disappeared
02:54He stopped talking to me and even stopped replying to my messages. I was super worried
02:59So on the first day of high school, I ran over to his house worried crazy when the door opened
03:04I almost passed out Dante looked amazing and cool. No glasses. No acne
03:10He looked like a teen model, but before I could even ask him what was up. He frowned
03:15No, I think I'll walk to school by myself today. Then he closed the door and walked away
03:20I was beyond shocked. Was he kidding?
03:23He had to be right wrong because at school things got even weirder
03:28Dante avoided me like the plague every time he saw me he dodged and ran away. Finally. I cornered him in the hallway
03:35What's with the dodgeball moves? Did I do something? Look I gotta go
03:40Distracted I bumped into Leo and his gang
03:42Oh, it's a little loser sad because Dante no longer wants to be seen with her better a loser than a clown
03:49What trick are you going to do today? How to use your mouth to talk instead of your butt Leo's face turned red
03:55He leaned towards me menacingly luckily a teacher passed by and he and his gang rushed away that evening
04:00I was very bummed out after school
04:03I saw Dante hanging out with some guys who spent more time in detention than they did in their classrooms
04:07Did he think he was too cool to hang out with me Rudy?
04:11You won't believe it Dante's acting so weird and I just don't understand why squawk
04:17secret agent squawk
04:19Undercover Rudy gave me a great idea
04:22What if I followed Dante around to find out what was going on and why he started hanging out with those guys?
04:27I wanted my best friend back as I was trying to understand Dante's odd behavior
04:32There was an unexpected knock on the door and mom waltzed in. Hey kiddo
04:36I've got some news. I've met someone and he's coming for dinner with his kid tonight. Is that okay?
04:43Squawk
04:44Nifty ties gone Rudy. Shh, of course mom
04:48I'm so happy for you with a chuckle mom hugged me dress up a bit. Okay
04:52I want us to make a good impression to be honest
04:55I was excited for mom that is until I opened the door for her guests and saw who they were
05:02Naomi what a pleasant surprise. I'm gonna make your life a nightmare
05:07I gulped this was going to be a disaster
05:10But to my shock during dinner Leo was super polite. I could hardly recognize him
05:15He even poured juice for me
05:17Was I wrong about him just then mom and Leo's dad went to the kitchen to grab the chocolate cake mom had baked
05:22I sat with Leo awkwardly when suddenly I felt something crawl up my leg and onto my chest
05:28I
05:29Screeched louder than a pig in a mud bath and leaped from my chair as the rodent darted into the kitchen
05:35Leo's dad emerged from the kitchen holding the toy mouse
05:39Naomi Claire, I'm so sorry about this
05:42Boys will be boys no harm done and jerks will be jerks as soon as Leo and his dad left
05:48I rushed over to Dante's house to give him the bad news that my mom was dating Leo's dad
05:53Hey Dante, can we talk but Dante didn't look happy to see me Dante shook his head and looked away what Naomi?
06:00Oh and she what the heck is wrong with you. Why are you acting like such a jerk then go away?
06:06You know what? I will I spun on my heels and walked away silent tears rolled down my cheeks
06:12I missed my best friend and I needed him now more than ever as days turned into weeks
06:17my school life became a minefield of misery courtesy of Leo's relentless pranks at school and at home and
06:24Dante's silent treatment Rudy was my only friend, but even he was worried about me. Tell mom tell mom
06:31What was I supposed to tell her that her boyfriend's son's heart was as dark as a moonless night?
06:36But just when I thought my life was over something amazing happened. I got an opportunity to win a scholarship to college
06:43I was thrilled if I could get it
06:45I wouldn't have to worry about my fees. All I had to do was write an essay about the career path
06:50I wanted to choose and why I deserve the scholarship. I was so excited
06:54I spent the next month working tirelessly on my essay and when I finally finished I was super proud of myself on the day of
07:01The deadline I rushed to the principal's office
07:03Clutching my laptop with my cherished essay when out of nowhere a torrent of dirty muck water Korean toward me
07:10It was like everything was opening in slo-mo my laptop fell on the floor and broken too before I could get it someone standing close
07:17I jumped on it smashing it to bits
07:21OMG stop stop. I didn't save it on the cloud. This can't be happening my essay
07:27But it did happen
07:29I sat in a pool of dirty stinky water with bits of laptop around me my precious essay gone forever
07:35And then I heard it the most terrible sound on the planet Leo laughing
07:41Suddenly my vision blurred with anger and before I knew it I was on top of him
07:45Clawing at his hair like a wild animal it took the combined strength of three teachers to wrestle me away
07:51You ruined my chances of getting that scholarship Leo. I hate you
07:55I ran out with tears in my eyes at home. I locked myself in my room and cried that night
08:01I got a call from Dante
08:02But I refused to answer shortly after he sent me a text saying that he saw what happened at school
08:07And he was really sorry he called repeatedly and eventually I switched off my phone and cried myself to sleep
08:13Over the next few days
08:14I couldn't eat and I spent most of my time in and out of sleep
08:18Darling if something is troubling you you can always talk to me. Okay. I'm here for you
08:24Squawk tell her with a deep breath
08:27I opened up to mom and told her everything about Leo's relentless bullying the scholarship and the essay and how Dante
08:35Distanced himself from me. I was devastated and miserable. Oh, honey
08:40Why didn't you tell me earlier?
08:42You were so happy with Leo's dad, and I didn't want to ruin it for you
08:46You will always be my number one priority and as for Dante, let's work on finding out what's wrong there, too
08:53Later that evening. I decided to walk to the park to clear my head
08:57I was sitting behind a tree when I heard familiar voices and what I heard next made my blood run cold
09:03I refuse to be involved in this any longer. Oh
09:07Don't you what about the $50,000 that I gave you for your mother's hospital treatment. I gasped
09:14$50,000
09:15Remember our deal I provide the money and in return you become my slave you do as I tell you and I'm telling you
09:21To stay the heck away from Naomi. I hate her or your mom suffers
09:26Leo's words hit me like a sledgehammer Dante was being blackmailed
09:30He was trying to save his mother while also protecting me and mom that night
09:34I decided to take things into my own hands and decided to visit Dante since I knew he wouldn't let me in through the front
09:40Door I decided to climb in through the window
09:43But it was way tougher than they make it look in movies as soon as I leaped onto the roof a tile
09:48Dislodged and slid down the roof and I was clutching the gutter for dear life my life flashed before my eyes
09:55I heard the window open followed by Dante's voice
09:59Naomi, what are you doing? Shut up and help. I'm here to rescue you. Hang on
10:04I'm on my way within a few seconds a ladder leaned on the roof next to me and Dante safely brought me back to solid ground
10:11I wrapped my arms around Dante overflowing with gratitude, but he gently pushed me away
10:17You shouldn't be here because Leo would hurt mom in us, right Dante's eyes widened in surprise
10:23I overheard you guys at the park. Come on. Let's go to your room before Leo catches us
10:28Finally Dante told me about his mother's illness and his father losing his job while we were away. I felt so guilty
10:35I'm so sorry Dante. I should have been there for you
10:38No, it's fine
10:39but I don't have any money for Leo and if I ever cross him all the things I did for him will come back to
10:44Haunt me a mischievous grin crept across my face as I rub my hands together
10:49Leave it to Rudy and me the next evening
10:51I told mom to invite Leo and his dad over for dinner because we had settled things between us when they arrived
10:57I was still connecting the camera that I had secured in Rudy's tie to my laptop when I finally emerged
11:03I spied Leo's father slipping into my mother's office
11:06I tiptoed to the office and peeked inside with Rudy perched on my head and what I heard sent shivers down my spine
11:13Yes, I'm bringing her designs tonight and my gambling debt will be squared off, right?
11:17I was shocked mom had spent months making designs to pitch to Prada
11:21This was a huge deal for her her entire career depended on it Rudy and I scurried back to my room
11:27It wasn't the footage. I hoped to get it was ten times better
11:31I quickly sent a copy to Dante before heading to the dining room to greet our guests
11:35Leo and I pretended to like each other and had a polite conversation
11:39After the meal I turned to everyone I've decided to apply to a few colleges and they wanted me to do a short video of
11:45Myself, I'd love to get your opinions as the tape played in the living room
11:49Leo's father looked like he'd seen a ghost mom on the other hand was furious
11:54How dare you come into my house and try to steal my designs? I worked so hard
12:00Get out, but I wasn't going to let Leo and his father leave just like that. Not so fast
12:06I won't share this on social media if Leo leaves Dante alone
12:10I know about the 50,000 and all the things you've made Dante do you what blackmailing our Dante pal?
12:17You have three days to pack your bags and move out of town or I'm calling the cops
12:22Leo and his father practically ran out crying
12:25Squawk trash gone trash gone while I was happy that I got justice for Dante
12:31I felt super bad that Leo's dad had broken mom's heart. I'm so sorry mom. I know you liked him a lot
12:38Don't worry kiddo. You just saved my business. I rushed over to Dante to tell him the great news
12:44Thank You Naomi for having my back even though I was a jerk to you. That's okay
12:50Relationships aren't always sunshine. They need a little rain to grow
12:53Slowly Dante's mother recovered and my mom hired Dante's father as her personal assistant
12:59After Dante and I finally graduated high school we got into the same college
13:04Excited about whatever life had in store for us
13:07Confident that our enduring friendship would weather any storm that came our way
