00:00Hi, I'm Thule from Boston.
00:02Before I tell you my story, please like and subscribe to MSI.
00:05Growing up, I was really close to my dad.
00:08He was a space scientist who worked for the government.
00:11He built satellites, won multiple awards for his space research,
00:15and one time, he even predicted a war based on a satellite meeting.
00:19Dad was my hero, and I inherited his love for science.
00:23We would talk for hours discussing big mysteries of space, and I loved it.
00:28But my mom always felt left out in our conversations.
00:31Like this one time in 10th grade,
00:33Dad was telling me about his new project when Mom walked in and turned the TV volume up.
00:38You turn that stupid music down, it's giving me a migraine.
00:42Your stupid science talk is giving me a migraine.
00:45Dad snatched the remote and shut the TV off.
00:48Mom tried to snatch it back, but she lost her balance
00:51and knocked into a big shelf with Dad's trophies and awards.
00:54Everything crashed, and Dad looked mad.
00:57Look what you've done! When will you start behaving like a grown-up?
01:00You're a scientist's wife, and you're dumber than a tree.
01:03Gosh, what an embarrassment.
01:05Tully, come to my study. We'll talk there.
01:07Mom looked like she'd burst into tears, and I felt a little bad for her,
01:11but she was always acting so silly.
01:13Over time, my parents started fighting a lot,
01:16and every time Dad would get annoyed, he'd lock himself in his study.
01:19He started getting more distant and would hardly even talk to me.
01:23Then a week after my 18th birthday, I walked in on him packing his bags.
01:27Where are you going?
01:29On a big mission. I don't have time to explain, Tully.
01:31Just keep this necklace, and know that I love you.
01:34I opened the necklace and saw a picture of me and Dad,
01:37and broke into tears.
01:39Don't go, Dad.
01:40I just have to. Take care. I'll see you soon.
01:43Dad left, and I waited for him patiently.
01:46But weeks turned into months, and he never came back.
01:49And then one day we got a phone call from his office
01:51saying that they'd lost contact with his spaceship, and the search was underway.
01:56The news of Dad's disappearance spread like wildfire.
01:59Everyone was concerned for the hero scientist who had gone missing, except Mom.
02:04She was happier than ever.
02:06She went shopping, got a new phone, changed her hair,
02:09got rid of all of Dad's stuff, and wiped his study clean.
02:13When I kicked up a fuss about it, she said we had to move on with our life.
02:17But things hit the roof when the police came in asking for questions.
02:21Mom just screamed at them and asked them to leave.
02:24Why did you send the police away? They could have helped us find Dad.
02:27They already went through everything a few days back, Tully, and they found nothing.
02:32Why do I have to go through this again and again?
02:34How would they find anything when you literally got rid of everything Dad ever touched?
02:39It's so obvious you don't want him to come home.
02:42I heard you two fight the day before Dad left, and you sounded like you'd rip his head off.
02:46That's none of your business, and whatever I'm doing is for your own good.
02:50Now go to your room and stop giving me a headache.
02:53But I wasn't going to give up this easily, so I decided to take things into my own hands.
02:58I spent days reading every news article printed about his disappearance,
03:02tried getting in touch with his office, spoke to some of his friends, but nothing turned up.
03:07I was super distracted and failed a scholarship test to one of the best colleges in the city.
03:13Bummed out, I skipped school that day and went to a cafe when this guy crashed into me,
03:18spilling his drink everywhere.
03:20He tried to apologize, but slipped and fell right on top of me.
03:24This is the worst day ever!
03:27Yeah, it kind of is.
03:28I almost got hit by a bus in the morning, and then my car broke down,
03:32and then I came to the cafe, but they didn't serve any hot chocolate,
03:36and I had to get cold chocolate instead.
03:38And now I'll have to order a new one.
03:40Can you shut up and get off me? You're kind of heavy.
03:44Yeah, sorry.
03:46Oh my god, is that the sequel to the Underwater Alien Invasion series?
03:51Please, please let me borrow this.
03:53I'm a huge fan, and all the copies are sold out.
03:56I'll get you free coffees for a whole month.
03:58Please?
03:59I'm Kirk, by the way.
04:01Toolie.
04:02Kirk and I spent the next few hours together, and it turned out we had a lot in common.
04:06He was a science nerd like me, fun and really cute.
04:10He was a bit weird, but at least he made me smile.
04:13We started hanging out often,
04:15and slowly I opened up to him about my life, family, and dad's disappearance.
04:19That's exactly what happened to my uncle.
04:22He was a fisherman and went missing.
04:24We found him ten days later and kept asking him what happened,
04:27but he didn't say a word.
04:29Eventually we realized he'd gone deaf because of water clogging his ears.
04:33I don't see your point.
04:34The point is that we found my uncle, and we'll find your dad too.
04:38We just need to keep looking.
04:39Kirk told me his dad knew people in the government,
04:42and maybe he could help us get some inside scoop.
04:45I prayed something would turn up soon,
04:47but all my hopes went down the drain when a week later,
04:49Kirk came back and told me that my dad was never assigned a mission.
04:53Everyone in the government was just as confused about his disappearance as I was.
04:58But how's that possible?
05:00Dad told me he was leaving on a mission.
05:02He gave me this necklace right before leaving.
05:04Kirk asked me for the necklace, but just as I was giving it to him, it fell.
05:08My picture fell out, and behind it was a tiny key.
05:12When I went home that night, I tried looking everywhere
05:15if there was a box or locker that dad might have left behind, but I found nothing.
05:20I was searching the living room when I heard a car pull up in my driveway.
05:23I went to check and saw mom all dressed up talking to some man.
05:28As soon as he left, I rushed outside to confront mom.
05:31You moved on quickly.
05:33I just went out to a nice dinner. With a nice man.
05:36It's not a big deal.
05:38Really? I wonder what dad will say when he gets back
05:41and finds out that his wife is cheating on him with some clown.
05:44And what will he say when he sees that his genius daughter failed an important scholarship test.
05:50That's right, your teacher called me.
05:52How are we supposed to afford college now, huh?
05:54Oh, don't worry about it.
05:56We'll just borrow some money from your rich boyfriend.
05:59He drives a fancy car.
06:01I don't think he'll have a problem sparing a few bucks for your poor daughter.
06:04You know what, mom? You never deserved dad.
06:07He was too smart for you anyway.
06:09Good that you're finding someone from your own league.
06:11Watch your mouth, Tuli.
06:13But I was already on my way inside the house.
06:15That night, I slept with one thought on my mind.
06:18I had to find dad and move out of this miserable house as soon as I could.
06:23The next day, I met Kirk and told him my plan of breaking into dad's office.
06:27Mom got rid of all of his stuff, and the office is the only place I haven't looked yet.
06:31How are you so sure that you'll find something?
06:34The police might have looked already.
06:36But they didn't have this key.
06:38I know it means something, and I have to give it a shot.
06:41Fine, I'm coming with you.
06:42No way I'm dragging you into this.
06:44Saying that, I turned around and left.
06:46Dad worked in a government facility, and it was difficult to get past the security checks during the day.
06:52So I decided to sneak into the office building at night.
06:55That evening, when mom slept, I slowly slid out of my window and left.
06:59I was standing outside dad's building when a guy dressed up as Batman came and stood next to me.
07:04How do I look?
07:05Kirk, why are you dressed like that?
07:08I've always wanted to dress up like Batman and fight crime.
07:12Actually, no.
07:13I wanted a disguise, and this was the only costume available last minute.
07:17I wish they had Spider-Man.
07:19Listen, I'm coming with you, okay?
07:21I know you're strong and independent, but you need my help.
07:24Why do you want to help me?
07:25Because I like you, dummy.
07:27And if we survive tonight, I'm taking you out on a date.
07:31Um...
07:32Just think about it.
07:33Now, remember, be quiet and fast.
07:35Kirk said that, took one step, and fell on his face.
07:39I was showing you what we shouldn't do.
07:42Got it, Buttman.
07:43I'm joking, don't cry.
07:45Let's go, Batman.
07:47Kirk and I went inside, kept our heads down, and dodged a bunch of cameras.
07:51It was dark, and Kirk kept bumping into me,
07:54but somehow we made our way towards the Department of Space and Aerotechnology.
07:58This must be it.
07:59But just as we took one step inside, alarms started blaring like crazy,
08:04and within seconds we were surrounded by a SWAT team.
08:07I told them my dad worked here, but they still handcuffed me and Kirk,
08:11took us to the police station, locked us in, and called our parents.
08:15Kirk's dad used his connections to get us out,
08:18and I even had to pay a lot of money so my arrest won't go on my permanent record.
08:22When we got home that night, she was pissed.
08:26I sold my jewelry to get that money.
08:28It was for your college.
08:29I don't even know what to say to you.
08:31You could start with telling me where Dad is.
08:33Oh my God, Toolie, your dad's gone.
08:36I've accepted that, and you should too.
08:38I just can't give up on him so easily.
08:40Look, look at this necklace.
08:42It's a key, and Dad gave it to me right before he left and asked me to keep it safe.
08:47Obviously it's something important.
08:49This might have information on it that can lead us to him.
08:52Give this to the police and let them handle it.
08:55This is beyond your control.
08:57And what if the police fail to handle it?
08:59It's been months, and we have no clue where Dad is.
09:02People don't disappear like that, Mom.
09:04Something happened to him.
09:06If he is out there, how can I stop looking for him?
09:08If you know something, just tell me, Mom.
09:11I can handle the truth.
09:12I just know I can't go on like this anymore.
09:16Oh, my sweet baby.
09:18I wish I could help you.
09:19Mom hugged me tight as I sobbed like a little baby.
09:23In all my years, I'd never felt this close to her.
09:26And maybe she was right, and the situation was beyond my control.
09:31The next morning, Mom and I went to the police and gave them all the information I had, including the necklace.
09:37The principal agreed to let me appear for the scholarship test again, thanks to my previous scores.
09:42And this time, I cracked it.
09:44Dad took me out to celebrate over ice cream when he suddenly jumped on a table and started singing.
09:49Oh, Tilly, my Tilly.
09:52You're sweeter than ice creams.
09:54I want to be with you.
09:56Will you be the peanut butter to my jelly?
09:59That was so cheesy.
10:01Then what do you have to say about this?
10:03Kirk kissed me, and it felt perfect.
10:06We started dating officially, and he even got through to the same college as mine.
10:11I was happy, and everything was fine, except I still missed Dad terribly.
10:16Then, a day before I was leaving for college, I was loading my stuff in the car when a bunch of police vehicles pulled up in our driveway.
10:23They spoke to Mom for a while, and then she walked up to me with tears in her eyes.
10:27It's about your dad.
10:29My heart leapt to my throat.
10:31What's happened? Is he okay?
10:33They found him, but he doesn't want to see you.
10:35That's not possible. Dad loves me. Of course he wants to see me. I have to go.
10:39Mom tried to stop me, but I ignored her and left.
10:42I didn't get what her deal was, but I was too excited to see Dad after so long.
10:47But my excitement turned to horror when I saw the police car turn towards a prison.
10:52My heart was pounding when the police asked me to sit in the waiting room, and minutes later, a frail-looking man walked in.
10:59Dad!
11:00I ran and hugged him tight.
11:02I'm so happy you're okay, but what are you doing in prison, Dad?
11:06Paying for trusting my daughter. What else?
11:08Dad told me that he was running away from the government because he had illegally sold important government secrets to enemy nations for money.
11:16The government found out about it and had been tracking down Dad for months.
11:20But I got that phone call from the office about losing contact with your spaceship.
11:25That was a lie the government made up.
11:27They couldn't tell the public a national hero had gone rogue till they had proof, which you gave them.
11:33That was the key to my secret locker with evidence of my illegal activities and bank accounts.
11:38I had no choice but to flee, but I didn't want to get caught with all the information on me.
11:42No one would suspect a stupid necklace, so I put that key in there and gave it to you to keep my information safe.
11:48But you went ahead and handed it over to the police.
11:51How could you be so dense, Toolie?
11:53Don't you dare talk to my daughter like that, you moron.
11:57I turned around to see Mom walk in with Kirk, march up to Dad, and slap him square in the face.
12:02That was for insulting my daughter, and that is for lying to us.
12:07You mean lying to Toolie?
12:09Because you knew the whole truth, but you chose not to tell her, so I guess we're not that different.
12:14What? Is that true, Mom?
12:17Yes. The police told me everything the day after your dad left.
12:21They were the ones who took away his things into custody for investigation, but didn't find anything.
12:26I tried to help as much as I could, but I didn't want them to drag you into the mess, so I kept everything from you.
12:32You worshipped your dad, and I thought finding out that he's not a hero but a traitor would destroy you.
12:38So you lied to me? For months you saw me suffer and you didn't say a word.
12:43How could you, Mom?
12:44And Dad, I trusted you blindly and almost gave up on my future to find you.
12:50And you didn't bother to tell me you were okay?
12:52Both of you are liars. I hate you.
12:55Mom tried to stop me, but there was nothing more to say. Dad got life imprisonment, and I never saw him again.
13:02Kirk and I left for college soon after, and even though Mom tried calling several times, I didn't answer her.
13:08All I needed was space and time to heal. I felt like a mess, and Kirk helped me pick up the pieces.
13:14I went into therapy, graduated from college, got a job, and got married to Kirk in a small ceremony.
13:20A year went by, and soon I was blessed with a baby girl. I was in the hospital when Mom walked in with a huge bouquet.
13:27I know you don't want to talk to me, but I'm here for my granddaughter.
13:31How are you, Mom?
13:32Since you're asking, I'm doing pretty good.
13:34No, that's a lie. I'm horrible too. I miss you so much. Please forgive me.
13:41I know it was stupid of me to hide the truth about your dad, but I thought I was protecting you.
13:46You have a daughter now. Won't you do anything to protect her?
13:50I guess. I get your point, Mom, but it was still wrong what you did. But I forgive you.
13:56Can you please take away these roses from my face now? You know I hate them.
14:00Anything you say, love.
