00:00Hi! I'm Maren from Vermont, and my parents are a couple of lunatics who hid a secret from me
00:05that rocked my world. But before I continue, please like and subscribe!
00:09I guess you can say I'm the grumpy oddball of the family. My dad's a psychologist and
00:13my mom's a life coach, and they have permanent smiles plastered on their faces. Before I was
00:18born, they made millions and became famous selling books that taught people how to be happy. When I
00:24was a kid, they insisted on driving me to school, where they'd always make a big scene.
00:29Give daddy a hug, sweetie. Give mommy a kiss. And don't forget Mr. Stuffy and your magic hat.
00:35It was nice when I was five, but now I'm 16 and they're still doing it. Every day they'd find
00:41new ways to embarrass me. They'd burst into song in the middle of the grocery store. They'd insist
00:46we dress like triplets every time we went out, and they'd show up at school in cheerleading
00:51outfits before every big test. You can do it, honey! Yes, you can! Go, Maren!
00:57My parents and I couldn't be more opposite. I failed to inherit their cheery disposition
01:02or their good looks. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that my parents are gorgeous. People are always
01:08staring at them and stopping them in the street to pay them compliments, but no one ever noticed me.
01:13My parents tried to share their spotlight with me by dragging me to their photo shoots and
01:17TV interviews, but it always ended up a disaster. I was not photogenic. Then one time, they decided
01:23to do a photo shoot in Disneyland, and the place was just getting on my nerves. All the workers
01:28there and the Disney characters kept waving and smiling like they were infected with happiness,
01:33just like my parents. And then a woman dressed as Cinderella's fairy godmother came to me with
01:38a big smile. So, sweetie, how do you like being at the happiest place on earth? Bippity-boppity-boo!
01:44And something inside me just snapped. What is wrong with you? You're a middle-aged woman whose
01:50job it is to dress up as a fictional character in a dumb costume, and you're smiling like a psycho.
01:56What are you so happy about? Then I grabbed her wand, snapped it in half, and threw it in her
02:01face. Okay, I know that wasn't my best moment. I apologized to her, a lot, and gave her a really
02:06big tip. But someone had made a video of me, and it was making the social media rounds. For the
02:11first time, my parents didn't look too happy with me. I thought they'd ground me, which was totally
02:16understandable. But after a day of silent treatment, they burst into my room, hugged me, and took me out
02:22for ice cream. I learned to accept that my parents were just not normal, and we were poles apart. But
02:28then one day, I came home from school, and they told me something that changed my life. Honey,
02:33we think it's time you knew the truth. You're adopted. Dad's words echoed in my ears. I couldn't
02:38believe it. My mind raced, and so did my emotions. First, I was in denial. No way! I got so mad, I
02:45threw a chair. Then, I tried to convince my parents to come to their senses. Ha ha, funny
02:50joke. Now take it back. I'm sure you have a lot of questions. Suddenly, I started crying like a baby.
02:56It took a while for my parents to calm me down, but I was finally able to hear them out. They told me
03:01they'd adopted me when I was two years old, and the craziest thing was that I had a sister. Why
03:07tell me now? We received a letter from your sister. She saw us on TV. Up until now, we didn't know she
03:13existed. She's been in foster care her whole life, but she showed her records, and she's been
03:18adopted from the same orphanage we got you from. The more I thought about being adopted, the more
03:23it made sense. This is why I didn't have my parents' genes. They weren't my parents. Your
03:29sister wants to meet you. She'd like to visit, but the choice is yours if you want to see her.
03:34My parents gave me my sister's contact information, and I looked her up online. Her name was Francesca,
03:39and she was two years older than me, and she looked a lot like me, but somehow ten times better.
03:45She was head of her cheerleading team, voted most likely to succeed, and wore the most stylish
03:51clothes. I sent her a DM on Insta, and she responded a half a second later. Surprisingly,
03:56we had a lot in common. We both loved rom-coms and mint chocolate chip ice cream, and we both
04:02hated zombies. Maybe having a sister wouldn't be so bad. Francesca and I made plans to see each
04:07other the next weekend. The next morning at school, I told my BFF Ray the news. I showed Ray
04:12a picture of Francesca, and he couldn't stop staring, so I slapped his forehead. Ow! Earth to
04:17Ray. Sorry, it's just I can't believe you have a sister. You mean a pretty sister, right? I guess
04:23she got the pretty gene from our birth parents. You're just as pretty as she is. In fact, you look
04:28ten times better. Yeah, right. No, it's true. You're a goddess, and I love you. What? I said I love
04:33plastic spoons. Hey, look, that lunch lady has a bunch. I should go talk to her. Bye! Ray was a
04:39little strange, but that's what I liked about him. We met in fifth grade. Ray brought a snake into
04:44the classroom for show and tell. It got loose, and everyone freaked out, but I grabbed the snake by
04:49its tail and tossed it into its cage. Whoa! You're incredible! We've been besties ever since. My
04:55parents were excited about Francesca's visit, but they were busy the day she was arriving,
04:59so Ray and I volunteered to pick her up from the airport. The moment Francesca stepped off the
05:03plane, I had a feeling I was in for trouble. She was beautiful in her pictures, but in person,
05:08she looked like a movie star. A bunch of boys jumped over themselves to carry her bags. It's
05:14so nice to meet you, Maren. I can't believe how friendly everyone is. Then this old lady bumped
05:19into me and started yelling, move, girl! Sorry, ma'am, we didn't mean to stand in your way. The
05:24mean lady looked at Francesca and instantly smiled. Aren't you a sweetheart? You, on the other
05:30hand, could learn some manners and comb your hair. You look like a peacock. What the heck? And to make
05:35matters worse, Francesca kept fawning all over Ray on the way back home. OMG, Ray, your muscles are
05:42huge. Do you work out? A little. Ray was practically a toothpick. What was she talking about? I don't
05:48know why, but when Ray smiled at Francesca, it made my blood boil. When we got back to my house,
05:54I barely had a chance to introduce Francesca to my parents before she ran up and hugged them.
05:59Hi, Mom. Hi, Dad. Is it okay if I call you that? How about no? Don't be rude, Maren. She's our
06:05guest. That whole night, my parents and Ray couldn't get enough of Francesca. Francesca
06:10had apparently read all my parents' books and could even quote them by heart. She laughed at
06:14Dad's stupid jokes, sang show tunes with Mom, and geeked out when Ray showed her his comic book
06:19collection. She even volunteered to cook and made the most amazing five-course meal. You are
06:25just wonderful. Extraordinary. Unbelievable. I'm not saying I was jealous, but come on. Francesca
06:32made herself right at home. My parents gave her a room down the hall from me, and that night,
06:37I felt so relieved that the day was over. But just as I turned out the lights to sleep,
06:41I saw Francesca in my doorway staring at me with a creepy smile. What are you doing? I'm sorry. I
06:48didn't mean to scare you. I just wanted to say goodnight. Okay, thanks. Well, goodnight and don't
06:54let the bed bugs bite. It can get pretty bad if they do. You could get an infection or have an
06:59allergic reaction. I've even heard that a bug bite can drive you insane. Oh my god, is that a bug on
07:05your pillow? Huh? I was so scared I hopped out of bed. Francesca turned on the light and glided over
07:10like she was Wonder Woman. Oh, my bad. False alarm. It's just a piece of lint. Sweet dreams.
07:15Francesca skipped out of my room with that stupid smile on her face, thanks to her. I didn't sleep
07:21at all that night because I kept dreaming of creepy bed bugs. 48 hours later, I was so relieved
07:27because Francesca's visit was almost over. But when I came downstairs for breakfast, I found my
07:32parents and Francesca giggling with excitement. Guess what, sweetie? Francesca's decided to stay
07:37for another week. Oh god, I couldn't take much more of Francesca. She was ruining my life. I
07:43swear my parents liked her more than me, and so did Ray. That's not a good idea. Don't you need
07:48to go back home? You have school tomorrow. You'll miss all your classes. You could fail a test. You
07:52could flunk school. The decision could destroy your life. Don't worry, Maren. I'm actually going
07:58to stay so I can check out your high school tomorrow. Francesca and my parents were so
08:02excited about the possibility of us going to the same school. I tried to keep my frustration to
08:07myself, so I avoided them the best I could. I made up some excuse that I wasn't feeling well. I loved
08:13myself in my room and watched MSA videos to cheer myself up. The next day at school was as bad as
08:18I'd imagined. The moment everyone saw Francesca, they fell head over heels in love. Even the
08:23popular kids ran up to me asking me about her. Hey, Mavis, does your sister have a boyfriend?
08:30My name is Maren, and I don't know. Can you give Francesca this invitation to my party?
08:35What about me? Sorry, cool kids only. Francesca may have been perfect, but there was one thing
08:41about her that was a little weird. Every time anyone asked her about her foster parents,
08:45she'd tell a different story. Once, my parents asked to speak with them. Oh,
08:49they can't be reached. They're marine biologists, and they're in the middle of the ocean studying
08:53whales. A few hours later, I overheard her talking to the principal. My foster parents
08:57can't answer any calls. They work for the government, and they're on an undercover mission.
09:01It's a matter of national security. She even told the popular kids that her foster parents were in
09:06a heavy metal band on tour in Thailand. I don't trust Francesca. She's a liar,
09:12and I think she's up to something. Not Francesca. She's the nicest,
09:15sweetest, and kindest person I've ever met. That's what she wants you to believe. She's
09:20got everyone under her spell. You have to help me expose her. Well, of course I'll help you.
09:24I adore you, and I would do anything for you. What?
09:26I said I love helping my friends. We should spy on her like in those spy movies.
09:30She's smart. What if she catches us? Believe me, she won't.
09:33Ray and I bought a bunch of spy equipment online, like binoculars, hidden cameras,
09:38listening devices, and these cool camouflage outfits so we could sneak around without
09:42being noticed. We spied on Francesca at school, when she went out for a run,
09:46and when she got groceries, but she didn't do anything weird. Till one day,
09:50we were spying on her while she was cooking, and we heard her on the phone
09:53speaking in a strange coded language. I-A-N-O-T-K-O-T-A-I-T-R-A-O-N-A. What?
09:59Oh, oh, I know. Uh, that's pig Latin. You keep adding A to the end of each word or
10:03something like that. My parents have been talking like that since I was a kid.
10:06Okay, so what is she saying? I don't know. I've never been able
10:09to crack the code and figure out their secrets. Oh my god, do you think they're hiding something
10:13really big from me and- Focus on my problems, Ray. Yours can wait.
10:17Then one day, I caught Francesca sneaking out of school. I followed her to the park across town,
10:22where she met this shady couple. I hid in the bushes and used my spy equipment to listen
10:26to their conversation. What's the holdup, Francesca? I've changed my mind.
10:30You can't back out now. We had a deal. You break into their safe, steal their money,
10:34and then you're free. You'll get your share, then you can go to that fancy college you're
10:39always yapping about. I said no. I won't do it.
10:41The mean woman grabbed Francesca's arm. You don't have a choice. We could always tell them
10:46about your past. You think those rich people will love you after they find out you're a thief?
10:50Suddenly, my allergies started to kick in, and I sneezed really loud.
10:54Francesca and the shady couple looked in my direction. I panicked,
10:57then I saw a bird on a tree, which gave me an idea.
11:01Okay, my bird impression was a little lame, but I had to do something. What the heck was that?
11:06Sounded like a bird dying, but forget about that. You're out of time,
11:09Francine. We'll make our move tonight. The shady couple got into the car and
11:13drove away. Once they were out of sight, I jumped out of the bushes and confronted Francesca.
11:18No, Francine. Geez, this is getting confusing. I'm just gonna call her Francesca, okay?
11:23Like I said, I jumped out of the bushes. I knew you were up to no good, you thief. I heard
11:27everything. You're going down. Suddenly, Francesca burst into tears, and man, did she look ugly.
11:34Her eyes got puffy, snot ran down her nose, and her face looked like a newborn's wrinkly butt.
11:39I'd never seen anyone look like a hideous troll when they cried.
11:43Can you please give me one chance to explain? Yes, yes, anything that stops you from crying.
11:48Francesca told me all about her awful childhood with her conning foster parents,
11:53who always made her part of their schemes. I've been waiting to turn 18 to get away from them.
11:58Then one day, they showed me you and your parents on TV and told me you were my biological sister.
12:04They said if I stole money from you, they'd give me my share and I could go to my dream college.
12:09I just wanted out really badly, so I agreed. But soon after I met you and your family,
12:14I knew that I couldn't go through with the plan. You're my sister,
12:18my only friend in the world, and I love you.
12:20Francesca hugged me tight and cried some more. I hadn't thought of her as a friend before,
12:25and she was getting snot all over my shirt, but it was okay. I started to realize how silly I was
12:30for being jealous of her. I was the lucky one. Even though my parents were annoying,
12:34there was no doubt that they loved me. That night, Francesca and I told my parents everything.
12:38They told the police, and Francesca's foster parents were arrested the next day.
12:43I asked my parents if Francesca could live with us, and they said yes. After that,
12:47Francesca moved in for good, and we became a happy family.
12:50One day, I was hanging out at the pool with Francesca and Ray.
12:53Hey sis, I've got one question. Why did you say your name was Francesca?
12:57I wanted something fancy. Francine was too plain. Now it's my turn to ask one.
13:02When are you gonna admit that you're in love with Ray?
13:04I spat out my juice. I'm what now? You heard me. And he's always looking at you like an infatuated
13:10cow. I am not, and that doesn't even make any sense. I'm as thin as a toothpick.
13:15Oh, geez. Just shut up, admit it already, and work it out, losers. And with that,
13:20she pushed us into the pool and ran off cackling.
13:23Maybe it wasn't gonna be so fun to have a sister after all.
