00:00I was cutting my bangs in front of the mirror when the door sprung open and I was splashed with water.
00:05My scissors slipped and now my bangs were super short and it was all because of Greta.
00:12Oops, sorry. I didn't see you there.
00:14Grr, why can't you leave me in peace?
00:17Hi, my name is Luna and my dream is to become a hairstylist.
00:21But my life currently feels more like Cinderella's.
00:24Before I continue, please like and subscribe to MSA.
00:27When I was little, Mom used to be a super famous hairdresser with her own salon and I could hold scissors before a four.
00:33But then, Dad got arrested for gambling and left a massive debt with some shady crooks who threatened to do horrible things to Mom if she didn't pay it back quickly.
00:42And that's when Mom's competitor, Mr. Prudit, swooped in.
00:46I'll cover your debt in exchange for your salon and you'll work for me until you pay it all back.
00:50We had no other choice and from then on, Mom and I had to do everything Mr. Prudit said.
00:55To make matters worse, there was Travis, Mr. Prudit's son, and Greta, his business partner's daughter, who treated me as if I were their maid.
01:02I had to carry their backpacks and iron their clothes and they always called me,
01:06Hey, you!
01:07Hey, you!
01:08Luckily, Travis went to live with his mom five years ago.
01:11But I still had to deal with Greta, who had become jealous of my looks and found every chance to make me suffer.
01:17She put chili oil in my mascara or left my number on strange websites.
01:21I was tired of her pranks, so when I saw Greta had booked an appointment with Mr. Prudit,
01:26I mixed the strongest green hair dye I could find into his products.
01:30Enjoy looking like broccoli, Greta.
01:32But when I got back from school, I saw the mixed up products on Mom's tray and her client was the celebrity famous for leaving horrible reviews.
01:40I told her everything, but it was too late. She had already applied the dye.
01:44I'm so sorry. I just wanted to teach Greta a lesson.
01:48And now you're the one in trouble if Mr. Prudit finds out.
01:51You know he's just looking for an excuse to throw us out.
01:54How do we fix this?
01:55Leave it to me.
01:56Mom added orange to the green and the hair turned into a lovely chocolate brown.
02:01The client was so happy, she gave Mom a great tip.
02:04Phew, dodged a bullet there.
02:06I'd spoken too soon.
02:07Mr. Prudit got so jealous of the client praising my mom that he pushed her just as she was pouring hot coffee and it burned her hands.
02:14Oh, looks like you won't be able to work for a while.
02:17I was about to fry him with the hot pan, but I knew retaliating would only backfire.
02:22The best thing I could do was take her place at the salon.
02:24Greta was thrilled about it.
02:26She already thought she was the boss of the place, but now she had me doing all sorts of ridiculous tasks.
02:32Hey, you, color code all my makeup supplies.
02:35Hey, you, come braid my guinea pig's hair.
02:37But the little devils kept running away.
02:39I dived to grab one before it ran out of the shop and I almost collided with a guy walking in.
02:44As I looked up, I saw he had the most beautiful long hair ever.
02:49I've always dreamed of cutting hair like that.
02:51I raised my hand to touch it and I realized it was Travis.
02:55Oh no, he's back.
02:56So we're grooming animals now?
02:58Here, I think my dog needs a little trim.
03:00Sure.
03:01And so I grabbed his hair to cut it, but Travis jumped away horrified.
03:05What? You two basically look the same.
03:08Really? I bought her because she reminded me of you.
03:11Ugh, he might have become handsome, but he's still the same brat as before.
03:15I hated Travis, but since he got back, I noticed him everywhere.
03:19It was all his hair's fault.
03:21It was always tangled, getting up in his face, and I itched to give him a good haircut.
03:25Ignore him.
03:26So I did, until one evening, I saw Mr. Prudit throw an expensive, perfectly good hair product into the trash.
03:32I waited until everyone was done, then Ninja crawled to the bin and snatched it up.
03:37When I told Mom what I did, she freaked out.
03:39Put it back. He'll think you stole it if he finds out.
03:42Then he shouldn't have thrown it out, right?
03:44Plus, we are overrun with plastic. You can say I'm saving the planet.
03:48Just keep it hidden.
03:49I'll put it together with my hidden stash.
03:52But as I was going to the car, I saw a truck stop just behind Mr. Prudit's salon.
03:56Weird, isn't the salon closed right now?
03:59Something smelled fishy, so I sneaked in closer and saw a guy in a baseball hat and mask open the store's back door.
04:05A thief?
04:06I grabbed a broken hair dryer from the nearby dumpster, ready to smack the thief in the head,
04:10when a gust of wind blew his hat off, revealing his hair that I'd have recognized anywhere.
04:15That's Travis!
04:17I watched as Travis loaded some boxes into the truck and then took off, even if it was his dad's shop.
04:22The way he had acted was super suspicious, so I checked the salon's inventory, but nothing was missing.
04:27I'm sure he was up to no good.
04:29The next day at school, I caught him right out of the bathroom.
04:32Oh gosh, you scared me.
04:34Good, you should be scared. I know what you're up to.
04:37For a second, he looked serious, but then he grinned at me.
04:40Really? I didn't expect you to be the jealous type.
04:43What?
04:44Yeah, I went to the bathroom to put on some deodorant for my date, but if you're offering...
04:48You used to be a little gremlin before, but you've grown up pretty.
04:52I felt a smile tug at the corner of my lips as I pictured us on a date at a romantic restaurant,
04:57but I quickly squished it away.
04:59No, he's just trying to distract me, but I couldn't help the blush.
05:02OMG, don't tell me you really like me.
05:05Denying would only make him feel more proud, so I just walked away with Travis laughing behind me.
05:11A few weeks later, Mr. Prudit threw a massive launch party for his new salon.
05:15As usual, he forced the staff to work as waiters and give out free cuts.
05:19I was determined to ignore Travis, but as he walked in, I felt my heart race.
05:24Get a hold of yourself!
05:25I moved to the back room to prepare food, but dropped all the mini sandwiches when I opened the cupboard
05:29and found Travis behind the door.
05:32Oh no! Those were for your dad! He'll be so angry!
05:35You won't find out if you're not here. Come on, let's go for a ride.
05:38Maybe if we're alone, I can ask him about the van.
05:41Fine. Instead of taking me to his car, Travis hopped on a bike and handed me a helmet.
05:45I've never been on a bike before!
05:47What's wrong? Scared?
05:49Of course not!
05:50Hold tight!
05:51And he was off like a rocket after I stopped screaming.
05:54I realized having Travis so close did weird things to my insides.
05:58It's not him. You just ate a bad prawn.
06:00He stopped by a beautiful hothouse.
06:02It was winter, but it was full of flowers blooming.
06:06A friend gave me the keys. Pretty amazing, right?
06:09But he was looking at me, and it made me blush, so I tried to change the subject.
06:13Why did you come back? I thought you liked it with your mom.
06:16Travis's smile slipped.
06:18Family stuff. How about you? Did you still want to become a hairdresser?
06:21Yeah. As soon as the debt is paid, I want to open a salon with mom.
06:25I'm sure you'll do great. And I'm sorry dad can be so horrible.
06:29My jaw fell. Why is he so nice?
06:31Who cares? Stop flirting, girl, and ask about the van!
06:34But just as I was about to open my mouth, a thunderclap interrupted me.
06:38And there was lightning, and it started raining, and I forgot all about the stupid van
06:42because I was deadly scared of storms.
06:45Here, put this on. You're trembling.
06:47It's not cold. It's fear.
06:49But then Travis wrapped his arm around me, and I didn't feel so scared anymore.
06:53Actually, having him so close was making me wonder how it would be to kiss him.
06:58And suddenly, my phone started ringing.
07:00Where are you? Mr. Prudit is looking for you, and he's angry.
07:04Travis and I raced back home, only to find that Mr. Prudit and Greta
07:08had dumped all my secret stash of salvaged products onto the lawn.
07:12There you are, you little thief.
07:14I haven't stolen anything. This is...
07:16That's my stuff. I just asked Luna to hold it for me.
07:19You wanted me to get more involved with the store, right?
07:21Mr. Prudit narrowed his eyes at Travis, suspicious.
07:24But since the clients were still around, he just walked away, and Travis followed him.
07:28Don't flatter yourself. He just did it because he didn't want his dad to cause a scene.
07:32Maybe. But Travis had helped me, so I wanted to thank him.
07:36Instead of finding him, Mr. Prudit found me.
07:39You sneaky little girl. I saw you on the bike with Travis. Stay away from him.
07:43Maybe you should tell him to stay away from me.
07:46As if he'd even look at someone like you.
07:48I just don't want you to ruin him with your horrible influence. I have plans for him.
07:52Plans? He's not a thing. He's your son.
07:55Mr. Prudit laughed, and it made me so angry.
07:58Until then, I hadn't fully realized how much I liked Travis.
08:02But hearing his dad talk about him like that made my blood boil.
08:05He's a million times better than you will ever be.
08:08I doubt he truly belongs to you.
08:10Watch your mouth, girl. You don't want your mom to have another accident, do you?
08:14Before I could say anything even worse, I stormed off.
08:17I was so tired of Mr. Prudit, and now I had to go and fall for his son.
08:21The only solution is to avoid Travis at all costs.
08:24It's a temporary madness. It will pass.
08:26Easier said than done since we went to school together.
08:29Every time he walked into a room, I hid under the table or pretended to be on the phone.
08:33OMG, your cat is on fire? I'll be there right away.
08:37Finally, he cornered me in the salon's back room.
08:39Gotcha.
08:40What do you want, Travis?
08:41To thank you. I heard what you told my dad. No one's ever stood up for me like that.
08:45Don't flatter yourself. He just gets on my nerves.
08:48I don't believe you. I can see how you look at me.
08:51Be my girlfriend?
08:52Your dad won't let us.
08:53Only if he finds out.
08:55I give up.
08:56We started dating secretly, and every night was like a fairy tale as we snuck out and went for long drives.
09:02And I realized I was falling for him. He was funny and kind and his hair... I wanted to touch it all the time.
09:09And then everything changed when Mr. Prudit announced that his business partner, Greta's mom, was coming back and he was throwing a party.
09:16Suddenly, Travis got so busy, I didn't see him for a week.
09:19I volunteered to be on the catering service, but whenever I tried to catch Travis's eye, he was socializing with his fancy guests.
09:26Whatever. I'll wait for him in his bedroom.
09:28Where Greta was lying in Travis's bed, in a silk dress, my heart sank.
09:33Oh, my. Look at your face. He didn't tell you, did he?
09:37She showed me a massive ring on her finger.
09:40We're engaged. Our parents are announcing it right now.
09:44I didn't want to believe her, but I heard clapping from downstairs, and when I ran out, everyone was congratulating Travis.
09:50So this was why he wanted to keep our relationship secret. He's been dating Greta all this time?
09:56Luna?
09:57Here to congratulate the happy couple?
09:59I looked at Travis, but he stayed silent. Greta was telling the truth.
10:03There was a steak knife on the table, so I grabbed it and...
10:06You're just a liar!
10:07Luna, wait!
10:08I chopped Travis's hair off.
10:10Oh, his beautiful hair. That's it. You and your mother are out, and you still owe me.
10:15Everyone was looking at us, and I realized I had just ruined my life for a stupid boy.
10:21But Mom stepped out of the crowd, and she was smiling.
10:24I don't think so. By burning my hands, you've actually done me a favor.
10:28I finally had time to speak with a lawyer.
10:30Your interest rates are illegal, and we've repaid our debt a long time ago.
10:35Plus, I'm suing for damages.
10:37Let's go, Luna.
10:38OMG, Mom is so cool!
10:40I was completely heartbroken over Travis's betrayal,
10:43but watching Mom's lawyer wipe the floor with Mr. Prudit gave me great satisfaction.
10:49He lost all his clients and had to sell the business to his partner.
10:52With the insurance money, Mom and I moved to a new town and opened our salon,
10:56which, you guessed it, was super successful.
10:59Five years later, I was a senior stylist.
11:02Finally, everything was good in my life.
11:04Well, almost everything.
11:06Because every time a guy with nice hair had an appointment,
11:09I remembered Travis and wondered what that last look on his face meant.
11:13Did he really betray me like that?
11:15And just then, as if I'd called out to him, Travis walked into the salon.
11:19He's even more handsome than before.
11:21What do you want?
11:22A haircut, of course.
11:24You've got your own salon for that. Well, your wife's salon.
11:27I didn't marry her. Also, I cut ties with my dad.
11:30Sure.
11:31Look, I never liked Greta. I was just trying to protect you.
11:35From what? We've done fine by ourselves, as you can see.
11:38From Dad.
11:39I came back and discovered that my dad was throwing away lots of stock for the silliest reasons.
11:44I tried to return some of it, but the other business partner found out,
11:47and Dad accused you and your mom.
11:49The partner believed him and threatened to put your mom in jail.
11:52Agreeing to marry his daughter was the only way I could protect you.
11:55But I broke up with her right away, and I worked to refund all the missing stock.
11:59And now, I'm here.
12:01I was speechless. Travis had really done all that for me?
12:05He could have just walked away, but he protected me while I hated him.
12:10Okay, fine. Sit down.
12:11So, you forgive me?
12:13Maybe. But for now, let me cut your hair.
