00:00Hi, I'm Chris, and I live in Los Angeles with my celebrity mom.
00:03Before I continue, please like and subscribe to MSA.
00:06I never knew my dad, but I totally worshipped my mom.
00:09She was a famous singer, and with her sparkly clothes and gorgeous voice,
00:13she was perfect in my eyes.
00:14Except, mom never seemed to love me the way I loved her.
00:17In fact, growing up, she was always so busy, she barely had time for me.
00:21Mom, could you help me with my hair?
00:22I'm late for school, and this knot is just the worst!
00:25Oh, sweetie, I'm late for a recording, but I've got an idea.
00:28And with that, mom took a pair of scissors and cut a huge chunk of my hair.
00:31I walked around the school looking like a shaved lizard for days.
00:35When I was 10, I got selected to play the lead in the play.
00:37Mom promised that she would come, but I kept waiting, and she never showed up.
00:40When I got home, I saw her having a spa session in the middle of our living room.
00:44Everything is calm.
00:46You're in your happy place, in the middle of the meadows, beneath the sparkling skies.
00:52Mom?
00:53Shh! She's in her happy place.
00:55I don't care! I need to talk to her!
00:58But mom just lay there, face down, completely zoned out.
01:00I felt so mad, I walked up to the massage lady and smashed the bowl of oil on the floor.
01:05What's the matter with you, Chris? Can't you see I'm busy?
01:07You missed my play for a stupid spa session? How could you be so selfish, mom?
01:12You have no idea about the stress I'm under, working on my new album to keep my millions of fans happy!
01:17And how about keeping me happy? Ever thought about that?
01:20With that, I just ran up to my room and shut my door.
01:23Mom and I didn't speak to each other for days.
01:25And after that, she left for yet another tour and didn't come back for two whole weeks.
01:29Over time, mom and I just got more distant.
01:31She got busier with work and I got busier with school and theater.
01:35With time, I got better and started performing in local dramas.
01:37Things were fine, but then I turned 16 and everything changed.
01:40Mom told me she was leaving on a tour for a year and I was going to a boarding school.
01:44But I don't want to go! My whole life is here! Why are you doing this?
01:48Chris, please don't make this more difficult than it already is.
01:50You're going to a boarding school and that's final!
01:52I kept arguing with mom the whole night, but she didn't give a hoot.
01:55And two days later, I was on a flight to my new school.
01:58Mom didn't even come to see me off.
02:00But by now, I didn't care!
02:01From the moment I arrived, I hated the place.
02:04The walls were so gray, it made my eyes hurt.
02:06And the hallways looked something straight out of a horror movie.
02:08Just when I thought the place couldn't get creepier,
02:11I was on my way to the class when suddenly, a girl my age collapsed at my feet.
02:15Oh my god, my head is so heavy! I feel like I'm going to throw up!
02:18Take me to the nurse, please!
02:20But I...
02:21The girl started shivering like crazy and I panicked and took her to the nurse.
02:24But she was so busy with someone else and just told me to take the girl to one of the treatment beds.
02:28I'm here a lot, since I suffer from fainting spells.
02:31But you didn't faint! You just dropped at my feet!
02:33Right, I mean, normally I faint a lot.
02:35But today, I just have a broken sneaker, sock, bone...
02:38Okay, fine. I'm just trying to get out of class.
02:40Please don't tell anyone! You can stay with me in this class too!
02:43I'll cover for you!
02:43I'm Melody.
02:44Chris.
02:45Melody and I got talking and instantly connected over our hatred for the boarding school.
02:49Incidentally, she was also my roommate and the biggest troublemaker around.
02:53She was always sneaking out, bunking classes, misbehaving with teachers.
02:56Her dad was one of the trustees, so the teachers didn't really say anything.
03:00This one time, Melody dropped fart bombs in the class and everyone went into a frenzy.
03:04Obviously, she got busted and threw a tantrum.
03:06I was trying to hide my fart smell with that bomb!
03:09I have a very weak stomach and I fart a lot.
03:12You know how kids can get really mean about these things?
03:14You want me to get bullied?
03:16What if I start taking drugs?
03:18What if I die?
03:20And then Melody dropped like a fly to the ground and the teacher ended up apologizing to her instead.
03:25Being with Melody was fun and slowly, I started liking my life in school.
03:30Until one day, I was on stage reciting a Shakespeare sonnet for a school play when I saw Mom walking in.
03:34I was so shocked to see her.
03:36I forgot all my lines and went backstage in panic.
03:38But I tripped on the stairs and the next thing I knew, I was in the hospital with Mom and Melody sitting next to me.
03:43I'm a horrible mother.
03:44I shouldn't have come and upset Chris like that.
03:46It's my fault.
03:47I called you here so we could finally tell Chris the truth.
03:50But I guess we messed up big time, Mom.
03:52What?
03:53When did you wake up?
03:54Around the same time you called my mom your mom.
03:57I didn't say mom.
03:59I said bomb.
03:59Cause your mom's the bomb.
04:01Shut up.
04:01I might have hit my head, but I'm not stupid.
04:03Now tell me, why did you call her mom?
04:05It's okay, Mel.
04:06I think it's time.
04:07Chris, sweetie.
04:08Melody is your twin sister.
04:09Mom told me how years ago, she was in a horrible marriage with my biological father and she had no choice but to run away from home.
04:16But after a week, she found out she was pregnant with twins.
04:18She couldn't afford to raise two kids, so she gave Melody up for adoption.
04:22I ran away to LA and met this music producer who helped me out.
04:25When I got successful, I tried looking for Melody, but I couldn't track her down.
04:29My adoptive dad's witchy girlfriend wanted me out of the house, so he enrolled me in this boarding school.
04:34But last week, Dad finally told me about my biological mom.
04:36I got in touch with Mom and asked her if she'd want to meet me.
04:39And you chose to meet her here, Mom?
04:41You didn't think what would happen if I found out?
04:44I thought it would be nice to introduce you to your twin sister.
04:46Mom, you paid zero attention to me all my life and then you show up here, unannounced, and tell me I have a twin sister?
04:52What part of this is nice?
04:54And Melody, you knew I was your sister and didn't say a word to me?
04:57Why?
04:58Mom asked me not to.
04:59And you listened to her?
05:00The woman who abandoned you!
05:01This is crazy.
05:02My head's spinning.
05:03Just leave.
05:04Both of you.
05:04Mom and Melody left and I just sat in my bed, feeling totally betrayed.
05:08Doctors discharged me that evening and soon after, Mom left for home.
05:11Back in school, I just avoided Melody like the plague.
05:13Even though she tried talking to me a million times.
05:15Soon, it was time for spring break and I was packing my stuff when Melody walked in.
05:19Are you done?
05:20The driver's here to pick us up.
05:21What do you mean?
05:21I'm going home.
05:22My dad is traveling for business, so Mom invited me to stay at your place.
05:26I know you hate the idea, but I've waited all my life to have a family.
05:29Please, just let me have this one spring break.
05:31I promise I won't butt in your life ever again.
05:33I wanted to say no, but Melody looked like she would break in a million pieces, so I decided to look the other way.
05:39It would be good for Melody to discover what a terrible mom we had.
05:42But I was totally wrong.
05:44Mom was so excited to have Melody around, she took a break from work, made us breakfast, took us out on shopping sprees, dinners, and she even threw a homecoming party for Melody.
05:52Mom had never paid me so much attention and it made me so jealous watching her bond with Melody.
05:57Soon after spring break ended and it was time to get back to school, but a day before we had to leave, Mom gave me yet another surprise.
06:04So, I've spoken to your dad, Melody, and we have decided that it's best you girls stay near home.
06:09No more boarding school for you guys.
06:10Isn't that exciting?
06:12Oh, Mom, that's great!
06:13It sucks.
06:14Mom, I begged you not to send me to that dreaded school and you didn't listen to me.
06:17But now that you have your new daughter, you want her to stay near you?
06:21I want both of my daughters to stay close to me.
06:23I've missed out on so much already and I just want to make up for the lost time.
06:27Yeah, right?
06:28You'll just end up disappointing Melody like you've always disappointed me.
06:31With that, I just left.
06:32And the next day, Mom enrolled us in a school nearby.
06:35I just wanted to stay away from home as much as possible, so I decided to join the drama club in my new school.
06:40On my first day, we were asked to perform a dialogue from Romeo and Juliet,
06:43and I got paired up with this dreamboat of a boy, Matt.
06:46He was so cute, I could hardly focus.
06:48Oh, my Juliet.
06:50Why won't you come down?
06:52I want to see your pretty face and your beautiful, sparkling eyes.
06:56Uh-huh.
06:57Go on.
06:58It's your line?
06:59Ahem, sure.
07:00Oh, Matt, I mean Romeo.
07:02You are the light of my life.
07:04Your face is so perfect, like a sculpted statue.
07:07And those arms, so strong.
07:09Do you work out a lot?
07:11I do, but I don't think that's what we were talking about.
07:14Then what are you talking about?
07:15The play.
07:16Are you okay? You're not blinking.
07:18I'm fine. I'm just getting into character.
07:20You know, Juliet and all.
07:22I'm weird. Sorry. Bye-bye. Nice to meet you.
07:24I ran in the other direction, feeling totally embarrassed.
07:27A minute later, Matt came behind me.
07:28The two of us started talking, and by the end of the day, Matt asked me out on a date.
07:32I had the best time with Matt that evening.
07:34He was fun, cute, and a really good listener.
07:37Pretty soon, I found myself pouring my heart out to him.
07:39Telling him everything about my family and Melody.
07:42It sounds tough. I grew up without a family, too.
07:45I mean, I had my dad, but he was hardly around, so I get where you're coming from.
07:49Thanks for listening. I've ruined the date, haven't I?
07:51Maybe there's still time to turn things around.
07:54And with that, Matt leaned in and kissed me, and I kissed him back.
07:57We went on a few more dates, and I was over the moon when Matt asked me out officially.
08:01Every night, he'd come over, and I'd sneak out with him.
08:04We'd go for drives, parties, walks, and it helped me keep my mind off things at home.
08:08One evening, Matt invited me to this party at his cousin's place.
08:11It was a little out of town, so he told me we'd be staying the night.
08:14I was just climbing out my window when Melody walked in.
08:16Where are you going? To hang out with your hippie boyfriend?
08:18I know you've been sneaking out to spend time with Matt, but Chris, I just don't think he's right for you.
08:22I heard he's always skipping school, and his grades are trash.
08:25And just last week, he almost got arrested for stealing cars!
08:28Those are baseless rumors, and you're one to talk.
08:31Have you completely forgotten what a mess you were in school?
08:33Besides, you should be happy I'm out of your hair so you can spend more time with Mom!
08:37I'm just trying to reconnect with my family.
08:39And look how great that's going!
08:41Now, I'm getting late, so go back to your room and stay out of my life!
08:44And I just picked up my bag and left.
08:46I took a cab and went straight to the location Matt had sent,
08:48but when I reached the place, it was totally dark and there was no one around.
08:52I walked up to the cabin and knocked, but no one answered, and seconds later, someone tapped on my shoulder.
08:57I turned around and saw two big men staring at me, and Matt was right behind them.
09:01What's happening, and who are you?
09:02Oh, don't worry, sugar. We'll only keep you here till your mom comes and rescues you.
09:07Rescue me from what? Matt, what is this?
09:09I'm so sorry, Chris. I owe these people a lot of money, and since my dad won't give me any,
09:15I had no choice but to kidnap you.
09:17Just do what they're saying and we'll all be safe. I promise you.
09:20Are you out of your mind? I trusted you! You're my boyfriend!
09:24Oh my god, this is such a mess!
09:25Help!
09:26Don't bother. There's no one around.
09:28Please, Chris, just sit tight and hear me out.
09:31Get away from me!
09:32I pushed Matt away and ran for my life, but one of the two big hounds caught up to me and took me back to the cabin.
09:37Just as he was trying to tie my hands, I bit his ear and pushed him away.
09:40The other guy launched himself at me, but before I could react, a vase came flying out of nowhere and hit him in his head.
09:45He fell backwards, and I saw Melody jump in with a baseball bat.
09:48Matt saw everything and rushed out the cabin, but he was stopped by Mom and a bunch of policemen.
09:53As they handcuffed and dragged Matt and the two guys away, Mom came running and hugged me tight.
09:57I'm so glad you're okay!
09:59Thank god! I saw you getting into that cabin noted down its number.
10:02He's the one who told me about this place. Don't you dare do something like this again, Chris!
10:06I'm so sorry, Mel. I was so mad watching you and Mom together.
10:09It just made me jealous and crazy, and I just couldn't think straight.
10:12I thought you guys didn't care about me since you had each other.
10:15It's my fault. As a single mom, I needed to work hard and I got my career break, but I guess I just kinda got carried away with it.
10:21I wasn't there when you needed me, Chris, and I will never forgive myself for that, but I'm here now.
10:26Not just for Melody, but for both of you, so please, give me another chance.
10:30I'm sorry, too. I should've been there for you as a friend before anything else, but I was so happy to have found Mom.
10:36I ignored how you must've felt.
10:37Hey, hey. At least we're all here and together, and that's all that matters.
10:42How about we start with a clean slate?
10:43You spoke my mind.
