00:00Please leave me alone mom ran down the dark corridor looking for a place to hide turning every doorknob that she came to
00:07Finally a door gave way and she crouched in a corner, but it was too late stay away from me stay away
00:13Hey, I'm Anastasia. My friends call me Anna, but my parents call me stay away from me or leave me alone
00:20Okay, I was being a little dramatic at the start of the video mom wasn't actually scared
00:25This is how it really played out mommy. Can you leave me a bedtime story? Please leave me alone go ask your dad daddy
00:32Look, I was outside playing and stepped in the poop see
00:36Stay away from me
00:38My nanny looked after me mostly because my parents were super busy with their careers and she always called me miss
00:44So I thought my real name was stay away from me
00:47It wasn't until my first day of kindergarten that I found out I was wrong. And what's your name, sweetie?
00:53Stay away from me. Excuse me. What did you just say stay away from me next thing?
00:58I knew my parents and I were sitting in the principal's office
01:01Sure
01:01I got into trouble but at least my parents used my name more after that and when I was four something amazing
01:07Happened my sister Isabella was born and she was beautiful
01:11Oh, I have the most beautiful daughter anyone could ask for I was so bummed by what she said that I stuck my tongue out
01:18At her but I got over it soon enough
01:20I finally had someone to play with or so I thought you see mom didn't want me near Isabella shoe go away
01:27But one night Isabella couldn't sleep and was screaming at the top of her lungs
01:32I crawled into her crib and began to sing her lullabies and soon enough. She was sleeping peacefully
01:37It felt like the best big sister ever
01:39But we never had a shot at getting close because of the way my parents treated us
01:43They were less busy with work now and spent all their time fawning over Isabella and spoiling her while completely ignoring me
01:49You know what? I see in the mirror. I see two beautiful girls with unlimited potential
01:54Oh Anna, how long have you been standing here? I was here first brushing my hair. You didn't even see me
02:00They'd whisk Isabella off to the mall or spa and one time they even took her to Paris
02:05Well, I was stuck with the neighbor and her nine cats. It bothered me a lot at first
02:10But eventually I just kind of got used to it
02:13But my parents were slowly turning Isabella into a monster who bullied them and threw a fit anytime
02:18She didn't get her way
02:19She would try to boss me around too, but I mostly wouldn't give in which didn't sit too
02:24Well with her like this one time when I was in fifth grade
02:26I was eating spaghetti and she turned to me with a weird look in her eyes spaghetti and worms taste the same
02:32Don't you think?
02:33What my stomach churned when I looked on my plate and sure enough there were worms mixed together with my spaghetti
02:41When I told my parents they told me it was a harmless prank every time Isabella did something to me
02:46They would make excuses for her and brush it off. Even the time she cut my head out of all the family pictures
02:52She's too young to know what she's doing. She's just having fun
02:57Lighten up the weekend before middle school
02:59I bought this super cute outfit for my first day and I couldn't wait to put it on but when I was getting ready
03:04I couldn't find it anywhere that is until I entered the kitchen and there sat Isabella in my outfit
03:12Isabella that's mine. It looks better on me. I look like a doll
03:15I rushed over to Isabella and tried to pull my outfit off of her when mom dragged me away
03:20And what are you doing to your little sister? I want her to take off my clothes
03:25Oh, is that what you want?
03:26You should have said it nicely and then she took a pair of scissors and cut herself out of the dress
03:32Oh my god, you're such a psycho. Mom. Aren't you gonna say anything?
03:36Yes
03:36If you knew how to share your things you could both enjoy them
03:39But now look at what you made your sister do Anna
03:41Pull my hair out
03:43There was no winning against this brat when she had some magic spell cast on my parents as I grew older
03:48I just avoided my family as much as I could and faded into the background
03:52I decided to focus on what I loved best singing and I became quite good at it
03:57But I only realized exactly how good I was when I was 16 two months before high school started
04:03I'd taken up a small gig at a cafe to sing occasionally and when I was done a stunning lady approached me
04:09Hi, I'm Gigi. You have a beautiful voice. I'd like to sign you up as a singer. What do you want me?
04:15Yes, I could make you a star. It was an offer. I couldn't refuse
04:20I gave Gigi my address and when she arrived at my house later that evening
04:24My parents were quite surprised and is a look so jealous
04:28Well, why would you want to sign her up because she's talented but her looks can be altered to look the part
04:34What do you mean altered by the time my people are done with you you won't even recognize yourself kiddo the following week
04:41I went to the studio with Gigi and I felt like I was in a dream and after rehearsals
04:46Gigi's makeup artists took over and she was right. I barely recognized myself. I looked
04:53Amazing when I got home mom looked shocked. Oh my god, Anna. You look stunning
04:59Flipped with excitement. Did my mother just give me a compliment as stunning as a chicken in a jumpsuit
05:05Later that week mom took me shopping
05:07In fact over the next two weeks mom and I spent a lot of time together
05:12We went to spas dinners and we even spent a day in Paris
05:16I picked up a few things there for Isabella
05:18But when I went to give it to her she dumped everything on my head
05:21You think you're better than me because of this music it your taste are numbered
05:26My baby's sister just threatened me I was too busy to think too much about what Isabella said
05:31I worked hard and released my first album by the time I started high school. I was already famous
05:36OMG, her skin is flawless. She's such an amazing singer
05:42I can carry your books around but life just had to give me lemons and this lemon was Mandy the meanest and
05:48Richest girl in school. She transferred to our school the year before and was the most popular girl around
05:54But clearly I dethroned her now because I had way more fans and social media followers than her and she just couldn't handle it
06:01Others may have forgotten how ugly you really are
06:03But I'll never forget and I'll make sure the others don't either I tried to ignore her and just enjoy my newfound fame
06:10But of course Mandy did everything to ruin it this one time after gym class
06:14She filled my body wash with oil another time. She filled my bag with live frogs that went crazy in the science lab
06:21She was a lunatic and then one afternoon while walking through the mall
06:24I saw Mandy and Isabella together Mandy was shuffling a dress into Isabella's hand and looking over her shoulder
06:31Wait, was she trying to get Isabella to shoplift? I stormed over to them immediately Mandy
06:36What are you doing with my sister? Mind your business Anna? She's my friend and way better than you
06:42Isa, she can't be that good if she's trying to get you to steal clothes
06:46You're coming with me. Isabella bit my arm hard and ran off stay away from my sister Mandy
06:51But after that, I'd see the two of them together all the time if they wanted to run their own Anastasia hate club then fine
06:58I had better things to focus on like my very first concert that Gigi has arranged to boost album sales on the night of the
07:04Concert my family came to support me and I was so excited
07:08I grabbed the mic and stepped onto the stage confidently and I was totally owning it
07:13Everything was going great until someone from the crowd screamed and pointed at the chandelier above me
07:18Which was falling down one of my guitar players threw himself at me and managed to get me out of the way
07:23Seconds before the chandelier crashed on stage before I could even process what had happened
07:27She whisked me away to get me checked up at the hospital
07:30But as I was leaving I spotted Mandy's face in the crowd
07:33I couldn't get rid of the thought that she had something to do with this incident, but would she go this far?
07:38She was acting like a lunatic lately, but I had no proof and it would be useless confronting her a few days later
07:45I came across the opportunity of a lifetime
07:48There was one spot open in the most prestigious music college and they'd be visiting the school in three months to hold auditions
07:55I just had to get that scholarship. You can drool on that spot all you want, but it's mine
08:00Gosh, why was the world always putting Mandy and me against each other?
08:04She played the piano and she was good like Beethoven good I couldn't let her win this I threw myself into practice
08:11After rehearsals with Gigi I'd stay back in the studio and practice for my big day one evening while I was walking home from practice
08:18I was passing by the bakery when I saw Mandy stuff two loaves of bread under her jacket and sneak out of the bakery
08:24Mandy was the richest girl in school. Why was she stealing food?
08:27I followed Mandy until she went into the bad part of town
08:31The houses were small and shabby and I watched as she entered one of them what on earth?
08:36I needed to know what was happening
08:37So I walked up to the door and was about to knock when I heard a familiar voice Isabella
08:42I told you already I'm done with this
08:44I'm not doing your homework shoplifting or going out of my way to be your puppet
08:48Isabella was making Mandy do stuff feeling shocked
08:52I pulled out my phone opened the door by an inch and started recording what I heard next made my head spin
08:58You'll do as I say or I'll spill your filthy little secret all over the internet
09:02I am so sick and tired of this tell everyone I don't care
09:05Ha you the oh-so-popular Mandy not caring what people think are you really comfortable with people knowing that your father is rotting in?
09:14Jail for fraud while you and your mother are left with nothing and living in this rat hole
09:18I find that hard to believe even how hard you've been trying to keep up appearances in school
09:22I've done everything you've asked me to do since you read my diary and discovered my secret
09:27You made me tamper with the chandelier at Anna's concert. She could have gotten seriously hurt. I should have never agreed to do it
09:33It's been giving me nightmares, but if you don't do as I say, I'll tell everyone what you did
09:38Oh, yes, I recorded it and then you'll go meet daddy in jail. Do your worst Isabella. I don't care
09:44I watched in horror as Isabella picked up a bat and raised it at Mandy
09:49I flung open the door and lunged at Isabella not a bat from her hand and pinned her to the ground
09:53Get off you ugly jerk. Did you completely lose your mind? What have I ever done to hurt you?
09:59How could my own sister hate me so much because you overshadowed my life?
10:04You should have never been in the picture and I'd do anything to bring you down
10:08Isabella lunged at me with a scream
10:10But the commotion had attracted the attention of some neighbors who came running in and held Isabella
10:15Someone called the police who took her away kicking and screaming
10:18I was still reeling with shock when Mandy turned to me you you helped me
10:23Why we may have our differences, but I couldn't let Isabella blackmail you or hurt you. Thanks Anna. No problem
10:29That's what friends are for friends. Are we friends?
10:32Maybe we could try crazier things have happened my parents world turned upside down when I showed them Isabella's video
10:38They decided to get Isabella evaluated and they were told that Isabella had some problems
10:44It was taken to a facility to get the help she needed
10:46I've been pointing out Isabella's issues
10:48But you've always just let them slide if we'd gotten her help earlier things might have been different Anna
10:53We're sorry for not treating you both fairly. We're starting to see how our actions have affected you both. We want to do better
11:00Can you forgive us?
11:01It's gonna take some time
11:02But maybe going to therapy together could help us improve as a family hearing this my parents nodded their heads in agreement at school
11:09Mandy and I even smiled at each other
11:11Finally the day of the big audition for the scholarship arrived and I saw Mandy backstage looking super nervous
11:18I don't think I can do this you can and you will break a leg. Thanks you too. Oh, I'm not auditioning
11:24I thought I should give you a fair shot Oh because you think you're better than me and I have no chance against you
11:29No, because I think you'll beat my butt and I'd rather not be humiliated and you need this more than I do
11:36I'll be cheering for you though. Mandy gave an amazing performance that received a standing ovation and she won the spot
11:42I learned that showing kindness to a rival can turn a bitter battle into an unexpected friendship
11:47You
