00:00Hi, I'm Kanya, and yes, this is me on top of a skyscraper in Chicago, and that is a
00:06massive storm coming in my direction.
00:09I was born in Thailand, and my parents divorced when I was just a few months old.
00:13Mom left, and Dad raised me on his own.
00:15He worked at a very fancy international hotel as part of the waitstaff, and it was a super
00:20fun place for a small kid to hang out.
00:22I spent days playing in the pool, learning to say hello in a million different languages,
00:28and every time I was hungry, I just had to turn my puppy eyes to the cook.
00:32Here, the clients didn't even touch it.
00:34They said the salad was too green.
00:36When it was too warm, Dad and I would go to the roof, eat khao lam, and watch the stars.
00:42Wow, they're so bright, it almost looks like it's day.
00:46But the brightest star is sitting beside me.
00:48Aw, Dad.
00:49You'd think I'd miss Mom, but Dad was extra caring.
00:54Every morning, Dad made pancakes and braided my hair.
00:58He also fought Cook to have first dibs on the hotel's lost-and-found box, and if there
01:02was something super nice, like that shiny pink bag both Cook and I wanted, they ended
01:07up pulling each other's hair.
01:09I wanted to do something nice for Dad, so when his birthday came up, I broke my piggy
01:13bank to get him a present, but I barely had anything.
01:16Well, just enough to buy a cheap lottery ticket.
01:19It's okay if I don't win, it's the thought that counts.
01:23But as the announcer read the lottery numbers, Dad's eyes grew bigger and bigger, and then
01:29he let out a loud scream.
01:31We had actually won the freakin' lottery!
01:34Dad knew his greedy relatives would come after him like bees to honey when they found out
01:38about his new wealth, so he decided to move to the U.S. with me, and we settled in Chicago.
01:44I was 12, and my life had turned upside down overnight.
01:49America was cold, and I wasn't used to Western customs.
01:52The first time he took me to a fancy restaurant, there were so many knives, forks, and spoons.
01:57What do you mean I can't eat spaghetti with chopsticks?
02:00They're noodles!
02:01But the biggest change was my dad.
02:04He invested the money in very successful startups, and we went from being really rich to filthy
02:10rich, and we moved into a massive mansion.
02:14Anything you want, you let Sebastian know, and he'll get it for you.
02:17Sebastian was Dad's personal assistant, and he was glued to his side.
02:22Every time I wanted to spend time with Dad, Sebastian was there too, tall and serious
02:27like a scarecrow in an expensive suit.
02:29He even went with us to the amusement park and followed us on the roller coaster.
02:33Does he really have to be here?
02:35Yes, I need him to hold my tie down so it doesn't flop in the pictures.
02:39Gosh, just buy a tie clip!
02:42I wanted Sebastian gone.
02:44I started giving him impossible tasks so when he failed, Dad would get rid of him.
02:49Sebastian, I want a copy of the next BTS album, the unpublished one.
02:54Sebastian, I want croissants every morning, fresh from Paris.
02:59But Sebastian always delivered.
03:02One day, I was stuffing down a box of fried chicken and plotting my next request, when
03:07suddenly I started choking on a chicken bone.
03:09Sebastian was immediately by my side, performing the Heimlich Maneuver until I spat it out.
03:14Oh my god, you saved my life!
03:17Just doing my duty, miss.
03:19After that incident, I started warming up to Sebastian, thinking of him as my grumpy
03:24guardian angel slash fairy godmother.
03:27When I started high school, I was nervous about whether my new classmates would like
03:31me or make fun of my accent.
03:33I'd heard American high schools were brutal.
03:36But then I met Diana, a total firecracker.
03:39Oh, you're from Thailand?
03:41I've always wanted to see the Festival of Lights!
03:44Yes, it's pretty amazing.
03:46We should totally organize one for our school, right?
03:49Everyone loved the idea.
03:51And while building lanterns with my classmates, I also got to make new friends quickly.
03:55As we watched the lanterns float into the sky, I was so happy to bring a piece of my
04:00culture to my new home.
04:02Diana became my partner in crime.
04:04She introduced me to a world of karaoke nights, greasy hamburgers, baseball games, and sleepovers.
04:10We spilled secrets about our crushes and talked about my upcoming 16th birthday.
04:15You know your dad is planning a massive Sweet 16 party, right?
04:19To be honest, I don't really care about a big party.
04:22I'd rather do something meaningful, you know?
04:25Sebastian helped me organize a day of volunteering with my friends at the local animal shelter.
04:30Dad, however, couldn't help going overboard.
04:33He donated a new building to the animal charity, complete with VIP grooming stations.
04:38I guess even the three-legged half-blind cats deserve a blowout.
04:42And they look great on my TikTok.
04:44Here, let's grab a selfie.
04:46At the end of the day, Dad rolled in the biggest cake I'd ever seen.
04:50But suddenly, he tripped and fell face-forward into the cake.
04:54After a moment of horrified silence, I started laughing.
04:59I guess now everyone knows how sweet you are, Dad.
05:02He laughed too, and I hugged him, getting frosting all over myself.
05:07Best birthday ever!
05:09But the very next day, Dad was dropping me off at school when our limo got surrounded by police cars.
05:15An officer handcuffed my dad as half the school watched and recorded videos.
05:20You're under arrest for fraud.
05:22What? That's impossible.
05:24As the police took him away, I frantically called Sebastian, but I couldn't get through.
05:29Please, pick up, Sebastian. You're the only one who can fix this. Pick up, pick up.
05:34When the police released Dad without charges, and without money,
05:38he told me Sebastian had transferred everything into offshore accounts,
05:42disappeared, and left us with a mountain of debts.
05:46We weren't the first family he'd stolen from.
05:48He was a conman wanted in 17 countries.
05:52This is all my fault. I should've never trusted him.
05:55I have a lot of friends. They'll help us out, Dad.
05:58But I was so wrong, and I discovered that at Diana's doorstep.
06:03Wow, you really have some nerve showing up here.
06:06What? Oh, you thought we could still be friends?
06:09Your dad's a criminal, and who knows what you've been up to.
06:13Before, you were rich and exotic. Now, you're poor and toxic, so scram.
06:19She tried to slam the door shut, but I pushed her in so hard that she fell on her butt.
06:24My dad's not a criminal.
06:26Then he's an idiot who got scammed by a butler.
06:29I left before I ended up punching her stupid face.
06:32I couldn't believe I ever thought of that snake as a friend.
06:36Luckily, not all of my friends were as horrible.
06:39One helped Dad find a job as a night guard, and another let us stay in her uncle's apartment.
06:44I moved to a public school, and things were not so bad, except for one thing.
06:49The debt collectors. They hounded Dad and even followed me everywhere.
06:54One even pretended to be a teacher to get into the school and took my bag.
06:58Hey, give me back my bag!
07:00You mean my bag? Where's the money, girl?
07:03Are you stupid enough to think I'd carry it around in my school bag?
07:07Sebastian took everything, and we're broke, you moron!
07:11I don't believe you. Tell your dad to return our money soon, or things are gonna get a lot worse.
07:18Of course, I didn't tell Dad. He was already crushed and looked worried all the time.
07:23The only time I saw him smiling was when I sent him a selfie I'd taken of us on our old hotel roof.
07:29We didn't have much in Thailand, but we were happy.
07:32I just had to remind him that happiness was possible here too, but I didn't know how to do that.
07:38But then a few months later, I was working part-time at a coffee shop,
07:41when I overheard two customers chatting about an upcoming meteorite shower.
07:45That's it! Dad loved the stars!
07:48If I took a picture of the falling stars, it would remind him of us on the rooftop of the hotel in Thailand.
07:54It would cheer him up for sure!
07:56Chicago boasted a towering skyscraper, over a hundred stories high.
08:01The roof, reserved for the top-floor hotel clients, was just the spot I needed.
08:06On the night of the meteorite shower, I sneaked into the hotel's kitchen wearing a borrowed chef's uniform from work,
08:12then went to the lost and found.
08:14Bingo! I found a perfect fake fur coat and hat.
08:18I channeled my inner Paris Hilton and got to the elevators, where a bellhop boy was stationed.
08:23He stared at me suspiciously all the way up.
08:26You look familiar. Do I know you from somewhere?
08:29Unlikely. I don't really mingle with the bellhop crowd.
08:33Why? What's wrong with the bellhop crowd?
08:36Oh, nothing at all. I'm sure your family's very proud of you.
08:41Your mother must have dreamed of a future for you where you press buttons for a living.
08:45He turned away silently, and I hopped out of the elevator as we reached the top.
08:49I felt bad that I'd offended him, but I was just selling my rich brat role.
08:54The view from the top was amazing, but the wind was incredibly strong.
08:59As time passed, it intensified, and a thunderstorm loomed on the horizon.
09:04Just as I was about to give up, a multitude of shooting stars lit up the sky.
09:09I took countless pictures before running back home, and I burst through the front door.
09:13Dad, look! Dad!
09:15I stopped short when I saw the whole place had been trashed.
09:19I ran into the kitchen, where I found a strange woman looking anxious.
09:23Uh, who are you? What happened here? And where's my dad?
09:28Oh, thank God you're here. Kanya, I... well, I... I'm your mother.
09:34What the what now? I didn't even know she was American!
09:38I know you don't remember me, but your dad asked me if I could take care of you, so here I am!
09:43Excuse me? You're about sixteen years too late!
09:47I'm sorry. I was so young when you were born, and your dad and I didn't really work out, so...
09:53I thought leaving was the best solution. I knew he'd take good care of you.
09:57You're right! He did a great job, and I want him back!
10:01I ran out and called my dad crying.
10:04I'm sorry it has to be this way, sweetie.
10:06The debt collectors are getting too dangerous, and I need to draw them away from you, so...
10:11I'm leaving for good. I love you, and I'll miss you terribly.
10:15You have to leave this house immediately and go stay with your mom.
10:18And you have to do what she tells you. I may not be able to call or text you again.
10:23No! Dad, wait!
10:25But he had already hung up. Dad was gone, and now I had to leave my house and my school
10:31and go live with this stranger at the other end of the city.
10:34And she forced me to wear a wig and contact lenses to make myself unrecognizable.
10:39I did what she said, but I just wasn't ready to accept her as my parent.
10:44I made it my life's mission to find Sebastian and make him return our money so dad could pay off his debts and come home.
10:51I started visiting police stations every day, but no officer wanted to help me until I bumped into...
10:57Hey, it's you!
10:59Uh, bellhop boy? You recognize me?
11:02Yeah, your disguise isn't that great. Also, my name's Enzo, and you owe me a tip.
11:08I'm so sorry about that encounter. How about I buy you an apology coffee?
11:13Better make it an extra large.
11:15It turned out that Enzo had started a new job at the police station as an IT assistant,
11:20and he recognized me from the viral video about my dad's arrest.
11:24So now you want to catch this Sebastian guy?
11:27Yeah, but I don't know how or where to start.
11:31Let me see if I can dig up some info.
11:33You'll really help me?
11:35Let's say I'm tired of asking.
11:37Have you tried switching it off and on again every time something doesn't work around here?
11:42Like a couple of Sherlock Holmes, we started tracking famous rich people's social media accounts,
11:47because such people were usually Sebastian's targets.
11:51He's like a tick, looking for the fattest victim to suck on.
11:54But Sebastian was also sly, and he knew the police were on his tracks,
11:59so no matter how many pictures we looked at, we couldn't find him.
12:03Until one day…
12:05Wait, wait, isn't that him on the yacht with Sily Myrus?
12:09OMG! Yes, even with the mustache, I'd recognize that sleazebag anywhere!
12:14Okay, let's zoom in on the boat name and…
12:18Found him! He's in Greece, posing as a… pet masseuse for TikTok canine stars?
12:24The next day, I bought a flight to Greece with the last of my savings
12:28while Enzo alerted the local police.
12:30Together, we descended on Sebastian.
12:33Drop the poodle. You're under arrest.
12:35Give me back my money!
12:37Your disguise is dumb, and I've already gambled all the money away, stupid.
12:41I kicked him in the shin as the police carried him off.
12:44I was happy he was caught, but the money was gone.
12:47With no chance to pay off our debts, Dad would be on the run forever.
12:51That night, I went walking on the beach, and I saw the sky was filled with stars.
12:56I took a picture of it and sent it to Dad, but he didn't reply.
13:00After I returned to the States, I decided to start mending things with Mom.
13:04It wasn't easy, but she was the parent I had now, and I could see how hard she was trying.
13:10She even had a box with my baby clothes and pictures that she'd kept all these years.
13:15Slowly, we started to get to know each other, and she was really cool.
13:19As for Dad, I would send him a new sky picture every night, even though he never replied.
13:25He did make me realize I loved taking pictures of the night sky.
13:29Enzo, who was still looking for his dream career, was now working at an electronics store.
13:35So, I asked him if he could find me a good deal on a camera.
13:38Sure, but it'll cost you.
13:40Name your price, Scrooge.
13:42How about a date?
13:43Really? But what if you grow tired of me and dump me?
13:47I mean, you change jobs every two seconds.
13:49Yeah, but I'm sure dating you won't feel like work.
13:53For our first date, we went back to the skyscraper roof, and I took more night sky pictures.
13:59Enzo loved them and suggested I start an astrophotography vlog.
14:04And when I won a super fancy prize in a competition, I realized I'd become a professional.
14:10I sent Dad the picture of the prize announcement, but like always, he never replied, and I finally accepted that he was never going to.
14:18I invited Mom and Enzo to the awards ceremony, and I caught her beaming with pride as she admired one of my pictures in the gallery.
14:26I'm so sorry I missed your childhood, Kanya.
14:29If I could go back, I'd do everything differently.
14:32We're together now, Mom, and that's all that matters.
14:35I love you.
14:36The presenter announced I was the winner, and Enzo walked me to the podium.
14:41I dedicate this award to my father.
14:43You made me discover my love for the stars.
14:46All the pictures I take, I take for you.
14:49I miss you.
14:50As I stepped off the stage and hugged Mom, I let out a tiny gasp.
14:54One of the waiters in the room was smiling brightly at me, and he was unmistakably my dad.
15:01He had tears in his eyes as he blew me a kiss, and then quietly left.
15:06And for the first time in years, I felt truly at peace, knowing Dad was okay and always watching over me.
