00:00Hey, I'm Marianne. Please like and subscribe to MSA
00:03I'm about to share a story about the challenges life has thrown at me. My parents, especially my dad, weren't what some would call
00:10expressive and loving. They constantly fought and seemed to spend more time hating each other than anything else.
00:16Dad always had the TV blaring. The noise kept me up at night,
00:19so I often resorted to sleeping with headphones on. I knew he wasn't a bad person,
00:23he just had some annoying habits and seemed to enjoy annoying mom. Mom was kind.
00:30She did her best to be the best mom. She'd surprise me with toys and candies.
00:34My favorite place was our tree house, which mom built for me. It was my escape.
00:38I loved spending time there with my bestie Joy. Marianne, everything will be okay.
00:43My mom got me two dolls and I want to give you one. Let's grab some ice cream.
00:47Joy was my best friend since kindergarten. She always knew how to cheer me up, sharing her toys with me.
00:53We were inseparable, so much so that some people at school mistook us for twins.
00:58Plus, Joy had an amazing voice. Sometimes she sang to me until I fell asleep in the tree house.
01:04Joy's family seemed perfect. Her mom was a successful fashion designer and her dad was a police officer.
01:10Sometimes I found myself wishing I was part of her family,
01:13but I'd immediately feel guilty knowing my mom loved me. When I was 16, my gymnastics coach said I should compete in another state.
01:21Excited, I asked my parents for money to go. Dad, busy with his motorbike, brushed me off.
01:26Wish I could, honey, but I gotta paint the bike. It's my pride and joy.
01:30I could tell mom wanted to help by the way she looked at me, giving me the
01:34I wish I could help you, dear look. That day, I made up my mind to do something.
01:38I grabbed my dad's motorbike keys, thinking I could ride to the competition myself.
01:42But since I didn't really know how to drive, I ended up crashing into a fire hydrant.
01:47Dad was furious about his damaged bike, but before he could say anything, mom intervened.
01:52Don't you dare yell at her! Mom then hugged me and handed me some money. Here, take this money.
01:57I've been saving it for quite a while now. I love you, babe. I hugged mom tightly.
02:02I participated in the gymnastics competition and took second place. On the way back,
02:07my coach had some really bad news. Your mom got into an accident while buying ingredients for your favorite apple pie.
02:14She's in the hospital now, in a coma. I couldn't say a word.
02:17I just stayed quiet all the way home. When I got back, dad hugged me and told me not to worry,
02:23saying mom would be okay. Later, at dinner, I asked dad something tough.
02:27Dad, can I stay with Joy's family for a bit? It's not that I don't like being with you,
02:32but I feel happier there. They really care about me.
02:35Sure, if that makes you happy. I'll talk to Joy's parents.
02:39And Joy's family was really welcoming. Joy's mom used to say,
02:43We're glad to have you, dear. You're like my second daughter from now on.
02:47That's how I ended up living with my best friend's family. They even gave me my own room.
02:52Joy's parents were wonderful. They looked after me and made me feel like I was their daughter.
02:57Even though her dad wasn't always home, I loved them with all my heart and thought of them as family.
03:02Joy and I even got closer. We'd spend all night talking or playing video games.
03:07I still saw my dad from time to time, and he seemed to be improving, becoming nicer.
03:11I'll keep getting better until you say you want to come back and live with me.
03:16Well, that might take some time, but yeah, keep your hopes up. I smiled and gave him a hug.
03:21One day, as I was walking around the house, I found a room full of beautiful clothes.
03:26Curious, I started trying them on. Joy's mom walked in on me.
03:30You look beautiful. I've always hoped to share my wardrobe with a daughter.
03:35Just then, Joy walked in, and her mom invited her to join.
03:38Joy, darling! Come try on some clothes, too. I don't want to.
03:42Soon, I got really close to Joy's mom. We hung out a lot, and I even helped her out at photo
03:47shoots, sometimes modeling for her. One day, I was shocked to see my picture on the cover of a big
03:53magazine. I wish Joy liked fashion like you do. Thank you for always being here for me.
03:59I smiled and thanked her for making me feel like part of her family.
04:03But something was off with Joy. She started keeping to herself,
04:06staying in her room and didn't want to hang out or do anything with me.
04:09When I tried talking to her, she just said,
04:11I want to be left alone. I was really worried about Joy's sudden change
04:16and couldn't figure out what I did wrong. I kept trying to fix things,
04:19even apologizing, but nothing worked. She sometimes even yelled at me.
04:23I had to give her space, even though it hurt a lot.
04:26One evening at dinner, Joy's mom shared some exciting news.
04:29Marianne, your teacher called! Your college aptitude test scores were amazing!
04:34I'm so proud of you!
04:36Turning to Joy, her mom asked,
04:37And how did yours go, honey?
04:39Oh, I didn't bother with it. I'm going to be a singer, so I don't need it.
04:42Maybe one of your famous friends could help produce my album?
04:45I won't do that. I want more for you. You're going to college, and later,
04:49you can decide what you want.
04:50What? You can't make those decisions for me. I'm going to be a singer, and that's that.
04:55As your mom, yes, I can guide you.
04:57You can't tell me anything.
04:59Joy, stop. Your mom's just trying to help.
05:02You shut up. My life was better before you showed up.
05:05Go back to your miserable family and leave us alone. I hate you both.
05:08Angry, Joy knocked all the family pictures off the shelf.
05:12After that, her behavior got worse. She began skipping school,
05:15and got mad whenever someone tried to talk about what she was doing.
05:18Joy's behavior toward me got worse, turning her into what felt like a real-life villain.
05:24She constantly tried to make trouble for me,
05:26and even though her mom always ended up forgiving me, it just made Joy angrier.
05:30For example, Joy switched her unfinished homework with mine, confusing my teacher.
05:35Luckily, the teacher sorted it out.
05:37Joy made a fake social media account with my name, posting embarrassing stuff.
05:41It took a while, but I showed it wasn't me and shut it down.
05:44Joy hid a library book I borrowed, causing me to get late fees.
05:48Her mom found it later and figured out Joy's trick.
05:51Joy messed with my bike's brakes.
05:53I felt something was wrong before I rode it and stopped myself from getting hurt.
05:56This escalated one afternoon.
05:58When Joy's mom was away on a business trip and her dad was away at work,
06:02Joy decided to do something drastic.
06:04She turned the backyard into a makeshift movie theater.
06:07I'm not sure showing a movie here is a good idea.
06:10Well, it's better than having you around all the time.
06:13The backyard quickly filled with people, the projector buzzing to life.
06:16I stayed inside, trying to avoid the chaos,
06:19and was flipping through a magazine when suddenly someone stumbled into my room.
06:23Oops, my bad. I was looking for the kitchen.
06:26Hey, is that a magazine about vintage cars?
06:28My dad collects them and I've read a bunch about them.
06:31Is that the issue with the 60s muscle cars?
06:34Yes, it is.
06:35His name was Brian.
06:36We discovered we shared a lot of interests and spent the evening chatting in the kitchen.
06:40Just as we were really connecting, the screen outside fell over with a crash.
06:44Suddenly, Joy and her mom came in.
06:46Look, Mom, I knew it.
06:48Mary Ann set up this whole movie thing just to hang out with her boyfriend.
06:52Boyfriend? That's not true.
06:53Why would I organize this party?
06:55Joy, you're my only friend here.
06:57Then explain him being in your room.
06:59This must be your party.
07:01Enough, Joy. I don't think Mary Ann would do this.
07:03But young man, it's time for you to go home. Please.
07:06Joy looked so angry and stormed off.
07:09She stopped talking to me and just ignored my existence.
07:12I kept talking to Brian.
07:14Having him in my life was great.
07:16He was nice-looking and well-mannered.
07:18His family had money, and he shared his dream of becoming a doctor with me.
07:22A few days later, Joy's mom called me into the living room,
07:25where I found my dad sitting.
07:26I really care about you and loved having you here.
07:29But things with Joy are getting tough.
07:31She's feeling left out.
07:33Plus, your dad's been talking to us.
07:35He's made some changes, wants you back, and misses you a lot.
07:38The past few months have been really tough about you.
07:42I love you and want you to come home.
07:45I didn't say much.
07:46When I feel a lot, I find it hard to speak.
07:48But I managed to say, I'll pack my things.
07:50I moved back with Dad, and honestly, things weren't bad.
07:54He had really improved, and hanging out with him wasn't bad at all.
07:57But I ended up blocking Brian.
07:59I didn't have a strong reason to cut him off.
08:01I felt like I didn't deserve him and just needed a fresh start.
08:04A few months after finishing high school, I couldn't go to college right away.
08:08Dad didn't have the money because we had big hospital bills for Mom.
08:11So I started working as a pizza delivery person.
08:14It was tough, but I never thought about quitting.
08:17I worked really hard and finally got into college.
08:20I planned to study economics and maybe even start my own business someday.
08:24While studying, I took any job I could get.
08:26Eventually, I managed to rent a tiny apartment with a view of the city dump.
08:31It wasn't much, but it was mine.
08:33I could finally study and rest there.
08:35Dad even helped me buy a used car for my delivery job.
08:38Things were starting to get better.
08:39I kept working hard, aiming for success.
08:41I often thought about Joy and her parents, and my mom too.
08:44I missed them a lot.
08:45With exams coming up, I studied all night and worked all day.
08:49I felt unstoppable, like nothing could slow me down.
08:53But one day, while out on a delivery, I suddenly felt very dizzy.
08:56And the next thing I knew, I crashed into a tree.
08:59I was rushed to the hospital.
09:01Everything hurt.
09:02But what pained me the most was my thoughts.
09:04Why couldn't things just go right for once?
09:06I hugged my pillow and bursted into tears.
09:09Then a young doctor came in, and I was shocked.
09:12Brian, is that really you?
09:14He recognized me too.
09:16I always thought I'd run into the girl who broke my heart again.
09:20Feeling embarrassed, I just looked down and stayed quiet as usual.
09:23Brian had finished medical school and was now an intern at the hospital.
09:27I apologized, and we chatted for a while and swapped phone numbers.
09:31Over time, we got closer and started dating.
09:33Brian had the kindest heart, and he even helped me with my college fees.
09:38One day, I went to the hospital to bring Brian his lunch and decided to visit mom afterward.
09:42I entered her room, and she looked so peaceful, just like an angel.
09:46I gently kissed her forehead.
09:48Mom, I have to tell you something.
09:50I tried to replace you.
09:51I was so angry when I felt you gave up on me, so I gave up on you.
09:55I was angry at dad too.
09:57Even though the poor man was struggling without you, I used to be mad at joy.
10:00But as I got older, I understood her, and we made up.
10:03I'm friends with her mom now too.
10:05I love them, but no love can match yours.
10:07Guess what?
10:08I found out this morning I'm pregnant.
10:10I'm going to surprise Brian tonight on our date.
10:12I think he's going to propose, and I'll say yes.
10:15Mom, I'm happy, but my happiness isn't complete without you.
10:19Tears overwhelmed me, and I laid my head on her hands.
10:22When suddenly, I felt her hands move.
10:24Overjoyed, I ran to the doctor like a little kid, shouting,
10:28My mommy is awake!
10:30My mommy is awake!
