00:18Check them out in the description below.
00:19Have you ever heard of maternal instinct?
00:22Well, my mother hadn't, literally.
00:24Her first words when I was born were, not now.
00:27She was so absent in my life that when I was a kid, I used to believe that my nanny was my mom.
00:32Mama, I love you.
00:33Oh, no, sweetie.
00:35I'm not your mom.
00:36But good luck with that.
00:37She was almost never at home.
00:39And when she was, she spent the whole time on her phone or engrossed in her Mac.
00:43Mom, it's really late.
00:45Can you tuck me in?
00:46I can't.
00:47Criminals don't sleep, kid.
00:48I have to take care of the city.
00:50Mom, for the last time, you're not Batman.
00:52No, she wasn't.
00:54But we were as rich as him.
00:55My mom was a hot-shot judge who dealt with high-profile celeb cases and was always on the news.
01:01She was like a celebrity.
01:03So we lived in a huge house, and she drove a shiny Rolls-Royce.
01:07My childhood was like a big winning streak.
01:10Fancy gadgets and futuristic toys, check.
01:12Anything to mute the tiny human.
01:14Private visits to the planetarium and zoo, check.
01:17Are you sure I can't just leave her here?
01:19That's the lion's cage.
01:21Is that a no?
01:22Despite the money, my life was far from being great.
01:25I didn't want expensive toys.
01:27I just wanted my mom to give me a little attention.
01:30So, since I was a kid, I tried to get it any way I could.
01:33Let's just say I was a bit of a troublemaker.
01:36One time, when I was visiting mom at work, I got bored of finger painting and went to her office,
01:40which was strictly off-limits to me.
01:43You can probably guess what happened next.
01:45I took my finger brushes and turned her aesthetic office into a huge,
01:49four-dimensional twister board.
01:51She didn't yell at me at that time, but I did hear her scream at the nanny
01:54who was supposed to be looking after me.
01:56I told you never to lose sight of her.
01:59You're fired.
02:00A few years later, in school, this girl was breaking into some teacher's office.
02:04She began to shuffle through everything in search of some papers.
02:07I noticed her shoelaces were untied, so I walked into the office to warn her.
02:11Hi, your shoelaces.
02:12When she heard my voice, she got so scared that she jumped out the window.
02:16She dropped some papers, and I grabbed them.
02:18Turns out, they were math exams.
02:20At that exact moment, the teacher came back from lunch.
02:22Oops.
02:23The next thing I knew, I was invited to the head teacher's VIP lounge,
02:27and mom arrived, giving me the side eye.
02:29Mom, you're not gonna believe what happened.
02:31You're right.
02:32I won't, so save it.
02:33I only got like a two-day suspension, but either way,
02:36my mom decided to take me out of that school and put me into a much stricter one
02:40to make me a responsible adult.
02:43Before my first day at my new school, she only said one thing to me.
02:47This is your last chance.
02:49I didn't know exactly what she meant,
02:50but I knew my mom hated having to deal with the problems I created,
02:54so I figured that all I had to do was stay out of trouble.
02:58Easy, right?
02:58Well, not really.
03:00Staying out of trouble meant not having any fun,
03:02and it's not like I had anyone to spend time with.
03:05Of course, I always wanted a sibling, but I never had one.
03:09What about friends, you might be wondering?
03:11Well, I guess I wasn't exactly popular at my new school,
03:14but it was not my fault.
03:16The school my mom sent me to was very prestigious and traditional
03:20for boring, wannabe-perfect rich kids,
03:22so my reputation was not the perfect hook for new friendships.
03:26I tried at least to make one friend,
03:28but each kid there was either completely afraid of me or so boring.
03:32My last hope was Laura, the resident brainiac of her class.
03:36She knew every answer and loved going to school.
03:39Although, weirdly, sometimes she'd have a couple of days off and never looked sick.
03:44Don't get me wrong, she's as dull as ditch water,
03:46but for some mysterious reason, I like her.
03:49Not that it was mutual.
03:50We were paired together in science class,
03:52but it was like an experiment gone wrong.
03:54Please, I can't be with her.
03:56I can't get into trouble.
03:57Come on, we're gonna have fun!
03:59I tapped her on the shoulder to encourage her,
04:01but that made her drop the test tube she was holding.
04:04Luckily, it wasn't that toxic.
04:06Nah, I'm just kidding.
04:07It was really toxic, and the school had to be evacuated.
04:10I was really trying to stay out of trouble,
04:12but trouble seemed to chase me.
04:14Outside the school, while we were waiting for the men in suits
04:17to take care of the hazard,
04:18a boy started to pick on Laura with his little drone.
04:21He kept flying it closer and closer to her.
04:23Laura covered her head and threw herself to the ground while everyone laughed.
04:28Stop, leave me alone!
04:30He didn't, so I had to step up for my new friend.
04:32I picked up this big stone and threw it at the drone,
04:35but turns out my aim is not that good
04:38as I bullseyed it into the head teacher's car window.
04:41When my mom found out that I had started a chemical disaster at school
04:45and vandalized a teacher's car on the same day,
04:47she was absolutely furious.
04:50Let's go.
04:50When we get home, you are gonna start packing.
04:53Packing?
04:54Where are we going?
04:54We are not going anywhere.
04:56You are going to boarding school.
04:58I thought she was joking, but she was dead serious.
05:01Mom!
05:01No, stop.
05:02Let me explain.
05:03There was this drone, and I tried to defend my friend Laura and...
05:06Stop lying for once.
05:08You're out of control, and I'm on the biggest case of my career.
05:11You need someone who can straighten you out.
05:13Then, just like Voldemort when you said his name,
05:16someone interrupted our discussion.
05:18Hi, I'm sorry.
05:19I couldn't help but overhear.
05:20I'm Laura's mother, Kelsey's friend.
05:22Great, she's gonna defend me.
05:24I can take her in if you want.
05:25I'm a specialist in child behavior.
05:27What?
05:28This must be a joke.
05:29Spoiler warning, it wasn't.
05:31I'm sure I can turn your little Kelsey into a perfect student, like my Laura.
05:35I looked at Laura, and she looked at me with some despair,
05:38as if she was trying to tell me something without speaking.
05:41She subtly shook her head.
05:42What is it?
05:43She wants me to go to the bathroom?
05:45So, what do you say?
05:46It sounds ideal.
05:47Before I could protest, my mom had already arranged to pay a generous sum of money to
05:52straighten me out.
05:54I was immediately shipped to Laura's house, only with a suitcase of my possessions.
05:58I didn't even get to say goodbye to my mother.
06:00How could mom do this to me?
06:02If she'd taken the time to listen, then she'd know I did nothing wrong.
06:05This can't get any worse.
06:07Okay, you might think that staying with Laura's family sounded better than a boarding school,
06:11right?
06:11Well, trust me, it wasn't.
06:13It was much worse.
06:15Let me spill the tea on Laura's parents.
06:17The dad was never there, always working, just like mom did.
06:20I didn't think I saw him even once.
06:22The worst part?
06:23He was the good parent there, because Laura's mom, she didn't love.
06:27If my mom had a cold heart, hers was a certified iceberg.
06:31Lights out at 7pm.
06:32Breakfast, 5.30am sharp.
06:34Then it's silent study until school.
06:36Silent study?
06:38Talking unless invited means losing privileges.
06:41After school, it's silent study again until dinner.
06:44When can I use my phone?
06:45Breakfast, 4.30am tomorrow.
06:47Wait, what?
06:48What?
06:483.30am.
06:49For both of you.
06:50Then I saw Laura with her finger over her lips, desperately trying to get me to shush.
06:54Hand me your phone.
06:55All social networks are completely banned.
06:58What?
06:58I can't miss my daily dose of MSA.
07:00I need to get out of here, and fast.
07:02I thought being Laura's roommate would help in devising an escape plan,
07:05but to my surprise, Laura was used to this.
07:08She can't starve us whenever she wants.
07:10Shush, she'll hear.
07:11She has supersonic hearing.
07:13Come on, don't be ridiculous.
07:14Breakfast, at 2.30am tomorrow.
07:17Darn.
07:17In the next couple of days, things went from bad to worse.
07:21I tried to talk to Laura in science class.
07:23Can't you see how wrong this is?
07:25Kelsey, please, just don't make it any worse.
07:27I was actually considering trying to get used to that new lifestyle,
07:31but then Laura's mom took it too far.
07:33I had been studying for an age, and...
07:36Quick note, wow, it's amazing what you soak up when you actually study.
07:39But anyway, I needed soda, and Laura gave me a death stare when I snuck out of our room.
07:44When I got to the kitchen, all the cupboards and fridge were locked with Fort Knox-level security.
07:49Then I was caught red-handed.
07:51No wonder your mother gave you away.
07:53Hey, don't bring my mom into this.
07:55She couldn't deal with you anymore, so she quit on you.
07:58I couldn't stand her anymore.
07:59Shut up, you meanie.
08:01Maybe I didn't say meanie.
08:03You are not going to disrespect me in my own house.
08:06To the study room for the night.
08:08The study room was an extremely small room where she sent us when we misbehaved.
08:13I had to spend the night there.
08:14I tried to sleep using a book as a pillow, but I couldn't stop thinking about mom.
08:18I had to go see her.
08:20I knew she was angry, but I was also so sure that she loved me,
08:23and that she'd take me back if she knew the truth.
08:25One day, I managed to cut school and get to our house,
08:28but apparently, she had moved.
08:30When I snuck back to school, the principal was waiting for me.
08:33Hi, Kelsey.
08:34Laura saw you leave.
08:35That little goody-two-shoed snitch.
08:37Your foster mom's waiting in my office.
08:40Oh, boy.
08:41I made up my mind.
08:42You and your other students shouldn't have to deal with this.
08:44She'd be better off homeschooled.
08:46The thought of being locked up all the time in that house with her
08:49was truly scarier than any horror movie ever.
08:52No, I'll be good.
08:53I mean, I am good.
08:54I swear.
08:55Of course, my vote didn't count.
08:57From then on, I wasn't allowed to leave the house.
08:59It's the only way to keep you from trouble.
09:02How on earth is she qualified to foster kids?
09:05I tried to lay low while I came up with a brilliant plan to escape for good.
09:09Still thinking.
09:10What is this?
09:12What did I do now?
09:13Surprisingly, this time, she wasn't yelling at me.
09:16She was furious with Laura.
09:18You got a B plus?
09:20It's the day I felt dizzy.
09:22I don't care about your excuses.
09:24You know where to go.
09:25Laura headed straight to the study room.
09:27I was still angry at her for ratting me up.
09:29But after she spent the whole day there, I started getting worried.
09:33I decided to sneak her some food.
09:35I'm going to get help to escape.
09:36I may need you to cause a distraction.
09:38Are you out of your mind?
09:40Just leave me.
09:41Laura, you don't deserve this.
09:42My mom will take us both.
09:44When she knows the truth, she'll be so happy to have me back.
09:47Laura remained silent and refused the food.
09:49After two days of being locked in the city room, Laura was released.
09:53I guess that explains her absences from school.
09:55Sometime later, I asked her how she was able to stand so much time
09:59locked up in there without losing her mind.
10:02I just draw things on the wall and time goes by.
10:05As you can see, things in that house were absolutely crazy.
10:09Finally, some days later, my ticket to freedom presented itself.
10:12Her mom was out somewhere and all the windows and doors were on lockdown.
10:16But I managed to break one like a superhero.
10:18First, I went to school to tell them what was going on.
10:21But let me tell you, being a hero is a thankless job.
10:24The head teacher looked at me like I was pitching a school play on Mars.
10:28Let me call your foster mom.
10:30With my superhero escape plan foiled, I had no choice but to step out the window quickly.
10:35Next destination, the police station.
10:37Go now or I'll have you arrested for wasting police time.
10:41I seriously must have one of those faces.
10:43Nobody believes me.
10:45There was only one person who could save me and Laura.
10:48My mom.
10:48I ran to the court, stayed low, and waited hours until I saw her getting out of a fancy car.
10:53Wow, she has bodyguards now?
10:55I did my best to get her attention.
10:57Mom!
10:57Hi!
10:58Mom!
10:59Mom!
10:59But it was useless.
11:00She didn't notice I was there.
11:02Some things never change.
11:04When she disappeared inside the building, I snuck into the place hoping no one would recognize me.
11:08Soon, I found mom.
11:10She was in court with her gray wig on and in the middle of a trial.
11:13I decided to wait until the trial was over to avoid interrupting her work.
11:17I knew she hated that more than anything else in the world.
11:20See?
11:20I can be a good girl.
11:21However, it was all so boring.
11:24It was so obvious that the guy with the mobster tattoos who appeared on the tapes was the bad guy.
11:29And there was no plot twist.
11:31After a while, I just fell asleep.
11:34Waking up at 4.30 in the morning was too hard for me.
11:37A little later, someone grabbed me by the arm and woke me up.
11:40I thought it was my mom.
11:41But when I opened my eyes, to my shock, it was Laura's mom!
11:45Come on, your mom spotted you and told me to get rid of you.
11:48She did see me?
11:49Can't you understand that she doesn't want you anymore?
11:52Laura's mom tried to silently pull me out of the courtroom,
11:55but I let go and hopped up on one of the seats.
11:57Mom!
11:58You gotta help me!
11:59Laura's mom is a psycho!
12:01Everyone turned to look at me.
12:02She forces us to study all day and when we're bad, she locks us in a tiny room!
12:07You have to believe me!
12:08Please mom, I love you!
12:10Mom looked at me in embarrassment, showing no hint of compassion.
12:14I'm sorry, everybody.
12:15My daughter is a troublemaker.
12:17Addicted to lies.
12:18I should have sent her to boarding school.
12:20I could hear my heart breaking.
12:21I knew my mom was mad at me, but at that moment, I understood that she didn't love me.
12:26Not even a little bit.
12:27Laura's mom grabbed my arm again to pull me out of there.
12:30This time, I didn't resist.
12:32I was completely defeated.
12:33But right at that moment...
12:34Kelsey is telling the truth!
12:36Everything she said is true!
12:37Everybody, including myself, now turned to look at Laura,
12:40who was standing on some seats a few rows behind me.
12:43I hadn't noticed, but her mother had brought her with her.
12:46Laura!
12:47My mom is a monster!
12:49Please help us!
12:50Laura, shut up or you will spend a month in the study room!
12:54I...
12:54The whole courtroom gasped, just like in a real courtroom drama.
12:57One of my mother's security guards grabbed Laura and was ready to pull her out of the courtroom.
13:02But I broke free from Laura's mom's grip and jumped onto him to help her.
13:06Chaos followed as the rest of the bodyguards, along with our mothers,
13:09stepped in to catch us, while Laura and I scurried around the room.
13:13Go, girl!
13:14Run!
13:14Be free!
13:15A few seconds later, more people from the courthouse came in and finally caught us.
13:20We were taken to an office, where Laura and I awaited our fate.
13:23I'm sorry I dragged you into this.
13:25Your mom will be extra hard on us.
13:27You can say that again.
13:28For what it's worth, thanks for sticking up for me.
13:30You should have seen your mom's face.
13:32I always knew you had it in you.
13:34Because your rebellion inspired me.
13:36Finally, we were friends.
13:38After a few hours, somebody finally came.
13:41Girls?
13:41We held hands and waited for the worst.
13:44We investigated what you said, and apparently you were right.
13:47At your mom's house, Laura, we found the study room with your drawings inside.
13:51So she was detained and you will go to another family's house.
13:54What about me?
13:55You're going with your mother.
13:56She wants to apologize.
13:58I'm really sorry, Kelsey.
13:59I should have believed you.
14:01I don't know how I could make it up to you.
14:02Well, to start, we can take Laura in.
14:05Done.
14:05Laura smiled and I hugged her.
14:07We moved in with my mother.
14:09Her remorse was short-lived and she soon returned to her old ways,
14:12ignoring our existence completely.
14:14But we didn't care.
14:15Me and Laura had each other.
14:16We became not only friends, but sisters.
14:19I told you guys I always wanted a sibling.
14:21As soon as we turned 18, we moved in together and started a new life far from our mother's.
14:26A happy life.
14:27Because family isn't the only one you're born with.
14:30It's also the people you encounter along the way.
14:32The ones who support and love you no matter what.
14:39you
