00:00You could say that I was born with a brush and an eyeshadow palette in my hand.
00:04I was always obsessed with makeup, and I even sneaked into my mom and dad's room at night to practice on them.
00:09A little pink eyeshadow, some red lipstick, and glitter.
00:13Perfect! Hi guys, I'm Regina from Seattle, Washington. Before I continue, please hit like and subscribe.
00:19I had a happy family.
00:21My dad was in the army and was as big as a bear and as strong as a lion. When I was little,
00:26I used to daydream about all the exciting missions he went on.
00:30Daddy is defeating tigers today.
00:32He's building a hospital for children in Africa.
00:36Despite how proud I was of my dad, I couldn't help but miss him.
00:39Luckily, my mom was amazing too. She worked at a cosmetic store,
00:43so she was like my personal shopping assistant and taught me everything about fashion and makeup.
00:48But everything changed when I turned seven. Mom fell madly in love with an accountant, and dad let her go.
00:55Will mom ever come back? I don't like to see her only through video calls.
01:00My baby girl, I know you're sad, but see, your mom is happy and will be happy too.
01:05I'll get a desk job, and I'll take care of you from now on.
01:08But even though dad was so sweet, he was an army man, and he didn't know any better.
01:13So he would wake me up at five every morning with a trumpet to go for her run.
01:18He could only cook beans and sausage, and when it came to my hair...
01:22The brush is stuck. Ouch! Let's watch a tutorial, okay?
01:26...before I end up completely bald.
01:28After a good dose of online tutorials and MSA videos later,
01:31dad finally evolved into a normal parent.
01:34Here's your packed lunch and your PE bag. Ready for school?
01:38Thank you, daddy! You're the best!
01:39Except when it came to boys. When I was in middle school,
01:43one of my classmates gave me a chocolate heart for Valentine's Day, and I showed it to him.
01:47Dad, look! A boy asked me out!
01:50My dad snatched the chocolate and ate it in one enormous bite.
01:54No boyfriend until you turn 21.
01:56You'll have time once you're grown up, but right now, you need to focus on your studies.
02:00Okay, dad!
02:02And the day after, the boy who had given me the gift transferred to another school.
02:06What if dad scared him off?
02:08I felt furious about dad and told mom everything when she video called me.
02:13But suddenly, she hung up, and I realized it was because of her new husband,
02:17who didn't really like her talking to me.
02:19And gradually, she ended up only calling on birthdays and Christmas.
02:23I learned to live with it and got busy watching makeup tutorials and trying makeovers.
02:27But then, in my junior year, I met Simon.
02:30And he was so perfect, it was no wonder I forgot everything else, even my passion.
02:34I'm sure dad'll change his mind when he sees him.
02:37Hey, dad! I'm bringing a friend for lunch today, okay?
02:40Sure, bring her over.
02:42Uh, it's a boy.
02:43I expected dad to explode, but he said nothing.
02:46Ooh, did he change his mind?
02:48But I was wrong, so wrong.
02:51When we got back from school, dad opened the door without a smile
02:54and stared at Simon before turning back towards the kitchen.
02:58Your dad's kinda scary.
03:00Him? No, he's sweet, fluffy.
03:03I dragged Simon into the kitchen.
03:05See? He made fried chicken! He likes you!
03:08Sit down, sit down!
03:09But after he'd filled our plates, dad grabbed a piece of chicken tight and,
03:13looking Simon in the eyes, he snapped it in half.
03:16Simon literally squeaked and shot to his feet.
03:19I suddenly remembered I have to water my fish, I mean iron my plant.
03:23Bye!
03:24After that, Simon dumped me and everyone started whispering that my dad was a crazy,
03:29dangerous dude.
03:30I thought all the guys would stay away from me now,
03:33but I was stunned when they all asked me out to prove they were daring and not scared.
03:38Ha! See, dad? Your strategy backfired.
03:41It felt like being on The Bachelorette with everyone trying to win my heart.
03:46Hmm, too short, too tall.
03:48Lame joke. Smells bad.
03:50Ew. Yeah, you'll do.
03:51But like a dragon guarding a princess, my dad made them all run away.
03:56That was until the next year when James transferred to our school.
04:00As soon as he walked in, I knew he was the one.
04:03Tall, with abs like a washboard,
04:05and hair that looked straight out of a conditioner commercial,
04:08he was the captain of all the school teams,
04:11top of the class, and richer than Elon Musk.
04:14Well, a little poorer than Elon Musk.
04:16Oh boy, is it even legal to be this hot?
04:19I was pretty, but for someone in James' league, I had to up my game.
04:22The next day, I woke up at 3 a.m., and after literally hours of careful styling, I was ready.
04:29That day at lunch break, I gathered my courage and went straight to sit beside James.
04:34Hi, I'm Regina.
04:36And I'm amazed.
04:37Haven't I seen you on TikTok? You look like a celebrity.
04:40Then he kissed my hands like a gentleman.
04:43Play it cool.
04:45Breathe.
04:46Breathe.
04:47James asked me out a few weeks later, so I brought him home.
04:50There's no point in dating him if he can't get past Dad.
04:53Just so you know, my dad can be a bit hyper-protective.
04:57Don't worry, he can't resist me.
04:59Dad pulled the same tough-guy routine, but James was unflappable.
05:04When Dad told James to carry super-heavy stuff, James did it whistling.
05:08Then they got into an eye-staring contest, and James didn't back down.
05:12Okay, I'm going to bed.
05:14Have fun, you two.
05:15Eventually, Dad ran out of ideas.
05:17Now that he's survived my dad's trials, we can start dating for real.
05:21We had so much fun.
05:23But then James started to get a little bit too enthusiastic.
05:27Every time we were alone, he tried to kiss me, and I wasn't ready.
05:30But I didn't know how to tell him, so every time he got closer, I dodged.
05:35During the movie, I spilled soda on myself.
05:37Ugh, I'm so clumsy.
05:39In the library, I sneezed.
05:41Ugh, allergies.
05:42Walking home?
05:43Oh look, a penny!
05:44Ouch.
05:45Oh no, are you okay?
05:47No, I'm not okay.
05:48What is wrong with you?
05:49He'll understand.
05:51Tell him.
05:51Can we take things a bit slower?
05:54What?
05:54I like you, but maybe we should get to know each other better.
05:58You know what?
05:59I only dated you because everyone said your dad was too scary.
06:02But he's not all that.
06:04You're breaking up with me?
06:05It's more like we never even dated since you don't want to kiss me.
06:09What a loser.
06:10As James left, I felt my heart break in two.
06:13That night, I was too ashamed to tell my dad what had happened with James.
06:17And I didn't want him to tell me, I told you so.
06:20But at dinner, I couldn't hold it in anymore, and I started crying into my soup.
06:24Dad got up and hugged me until I stopped.
06:27You were right, Dad.
06:28I'm sorry I didn't listen.
06:30Baby girl, I don't care about being right.
06:32I just don't want to see you hurt.
06:34Remember, you don't need anyone.
06:36You're a smart girl, and I know you can succeed.
06:39But don't forget yourself.
06:40Didn't you love makeup?
06:42You haven't given me a makeover in years.
06:44Oh, Dad, you're the best.
06:46And then I vowed to myself, no more boys.
06:50From that day on, I only focused on my life and school.
06:53I made friends with a few awesome girls, and I started to go back to my passion,
06:57which was makeup and fashion.
06:59Once, when our teacher invited the whole class to her wedding,
07:02my friend couldn't believe I didn't hire a professional stylist.
07:06Your makeup is flawless.
07:08Maybe you could give me a little touch-up?
07:09Of course.
07:10Let me ask my dad to bring my beauty case.
07:12When my other classmates saw my friend's new look,
07:15they all wanted a makeover too, including my teacher.
07:18After that moment, word went around that I would give the best makeovers,
07:23and I became the school's unofficial fashion guru.
07:26Girls and boys lined up after class to talk to me.
07:29Have you tried an autumn palette?
07:31Ironic bow ties are for clowns only.
07:33You cut these things by yourself, didn't you?
07:36I liked how makeup positively affected my friend's self-esteem,
07:39and I spent all my pocket money on it.
07:42I wielded my brush like a Japanese samurai sword.
07:45But then one day, a girl came to me with a problem I couldn't solve.
07:49I want to go blonde, but the bleach ruins my hair.
07:52Is there an alternative?
07:53After Googling for a day, I realized that the only way to go blonde was to damage the hair.
07:59But what if I can find an alternative solution?
08:01Imagine how many people I could help.
08:03And so I went down the rabbit hole of research,
08:06and when I thought I had found a solution,
08:08I got permission from my teacher to use the chemistry lab,
08:11even though chemistry was the only class I had failed.
08:14Okay, hair sample, check.
08:16Dye sample, check.
08:17Now, if I put this here, and then a drip of that there...
08:21OMG, it's on fire!
08:22My hair sample is on fire!
08:24A boy in the lab came to help me.
08:26Oh, thank you.
08:28You saved me.
08:29I'm Regina, the girl who has a scary dad.
08:31I'm Tyrell, and I'd love to know why you were setting fire to my lab.
08:35Your lab?
08:36Let's say I'm the resident chemistry nerd.
08:39I looked at him.
08:40Pimples, thick glasses, bad haircut, and...
08:43Oh my god, are those khaki pants?
08:45Gosh, this guy really needs a makeover.
08:48But I wasn't in the business of giving unrequested advice,
08:51so I told Tyrell about my research instead.
08:53He gave me suggestions, and I realized that my love for all things beautiful
08:58was totally rooted in chemistry.
09:00Who knew science could be so glamorous?
09:02But no matter how much I wanted to learn, I kept messing up with chemicals.
09:07That... how did you do that?
09:09Instead of getting mad, he helped me fix it.
09:11In exchange for all his help, I offered to tutor him in English.
09:15Spanish was his first language, so he needed it.
09:17And I invited him to my house to do homework.
09:20Don't worry, dad.
09:21He's just a friend.
09:23He's still a boy.
09:24Door open at all times.
09:26Yeah, yeah.
09:27Like I could fall for a guy like Tyrell.
09:30He's not my type.
09:31I needed to test all my beauty products.
09:33And since Tyrell was always around, I convinced him to be my guinea pig.
09:37One facial cleanser and haircut at a time, Tyrell turned into a hottie.
09:42You can't help yourself from turning frogs into princes, eh?
09:44But he's so cute now.
09:46No, don't think like that.
09:47You said no more boys.
09:49The more I tried to stop developing a crush on Tyrell, the more I realized how cool he was.
09:55Until he walked into the lab with a gorgeous girl at his side.
09:58Oh no.
09:59He has a girlfriend?
10:01Why does this feel so horrible?
10:03Hi?
10:04Hey, Regina.
10:05This is my older sister, and she's an angel investor for women's startups.
10:08I told her about your ideas, and she'd like to invest in them.
10:12I was so relieved to hear that she wasn't his girlfriend that it took me a moment to
10:16register the rest of the sentence.
10:18An investor?
10:19You deserve a lot of success.
10:20But you helped me out a lot.
10:23It's hard to say no to a beautiful and smart girl like you.
10:26Tyrell blushed to the tip of his ears, and I couldn't resist.
10:30So I kissed him, and he kissed me back.
10:33I thought I was just a friend.
10:35You can be my friend and my boyfriend.
10:37Really?
10:38But you're dad.
10:39I'll talk to him.
10:40Tyrell was nothing like the boys I had been with before, and I hoped that he could see it too.
10:46But when I explained, he refused.
10:49If he really likes you that much, he can wait a few years.
10:52No!
10:52That's not fair!
10:54It doesn't have to be fair.
10:55Now, didn't I promise to take you to the mall?
10:58If you think you'll mollify me with some shopping, you're mistaken.
11:02Dad really seemed determined to make me forget, and he said yes to everything I wanted.
11:07But I had other plans.
11:08I texted Tyrell to meet us in the garage where we had parked.
11:11If I can't convince him by myself, maybe Tyrell will.
11:14But when we were in the elevator to get to the car, it suddenly stopped, and the lights went off.
11:19I switched on the torch on my phone and pressed all the buttons, but nothing changed.
11:24It looks like we'll be stuck here for a bit.
11:26Dad didn't reply.
11:28He was staring at the floor.
11:29Dad?
11:30He doesn't look so good.
11:31I'm sorry, baby girl.
11:33Dark, small spaces bring back bad memories.
11:37My chest… I feel like I can't breathe.
11:40I looked at my dad, stunned.
11:42I always thought he was invincible, but the truth was, he was just human.
11:47I pressed the emergency button, but nothing happened.
11:49Dad started breathing very fast.
11:51He's having a panic attack, and there's no signal in here.
11:55Sit down, put your head between your knees, and think about nice things.
11:59I miss your mom most of the time.
12:01I sat beside my dad and wrapped my arms around him.
12:04I miss her too, but we are happy together, and you've been an amazing dad.
12:09I'm so proud of you.
12:10And I am of you too.
12:12I kept talking to my dad until he was a little bit calmer,
12:15and then the doors to the elevator opened.
12:18It was Tyrell and the firemen, and they were getting us out!
12:21My hero!
12:22I'm glad you're okay.
12:23I got worried when you weren't answering the phone.
12:25I realized the elevator was stuck, and I called the emergency service.
12:29That was very clever of you.
12:31I think your daughter is amazing.
12:33I came here to convince you to let me date her, but I…
12:35I know how much she cares about you.
12:37And if it's really important, I'll wait for her for a few years.
12:40But just maybe, please don't let me wait forever.
12:43Dad looked at me, and I could see something changing in his eyes.
12:47You've shown me that strength is not always in the muscles.
12:51Some old memories brought me to my knees,
12:53but you kept your cool and helped me through it.
12:55So yeah, I think you're strong enough to take care of yourself.
12:58And I like this guy.
12:59Oh, thank you, dad!
13:01But if you hurt her, I'll crush you.
13:03Like a can.
13:04That is very clear, sir.
13:06Luckily for me, dad didn't have to crush anyone,
13:09because Tyrell was the perfect boyfriend who grew up into a perfect man.
13:14With his help, I developed a makeup line that became a global sensation,
13:18and Tyrell became my head of research.
13:20Knowing I was in good hands, dad retired early and started traveling the world,
13:25challenging himself to explore the darkest caves.
13:27And in one of those caves, he met a spry, adventurous widow,
13:31whom he married the next year.
13:33See, dad?
13:34True love always finds a way.
