00:00Some superheroes strut around in capes,
00:02while others rock pixie boots and a trendy poncho.
00:05Because, yes, you are looking at a real superhero.
00:09Hi, I'm Annie, and I'm from New Jersey.
00:11Don't be fooled by my cute pink locks
00:13and dazzling big blue eyes, because as it turns out,
00:16I'm also a bit of a crazy jealous maniac.
00:19You know, every superhero has a weakness.
00:21Mine was my dad.
00:22My dad was the center of my world.
00:25Mom left when I was three, so it was always me and him.
00:28We'd hang out all day, and he'd do whatever I wanted.
00:31Let's jump on your bed and then go
00:32fishing for sharks in the park.
00:34I've just made the bed, and it's raining outside.
00:37But whoever makes you happy, my angel.
00:39My dad was the best.
00:41He was my superhero.
00:42We did everything together and made a big effort
00:45to share each other's interests.
00:46For example, he learned the names of all the dogs
00:48from Paw Patrol.
00:49You're such a sky.
00:50In return, I learned to play chess,
00:52which was dad's favorite game.
00:54Kapow!
00:55That's a chick and a mate.
00:56One time, when I had a high fever,
00:58I asked him not to leave my side for one minute.
01:01I promise, Annie, I never will.
01:03And I totally believed him.
01:04He even made a pulley system to get the Uber food
01:07delivery to my bedroom window without leaving my room.
01:09But then the worst thing happened.
01:12A couple of days later, instead of making me breakfast,
01:15he grabbed his car keys and let a babysitter in.
01:17I must go to work today, Angel Annie.
01:19Teresa will look after you.
01:21No, Daddy, I'll go with you.
01:23I'm sorry, sweetie.
01:24I have to go alone.
01:25I swore the best.
01:26Why?
01:27Because we need the money to live.
01:29Fine.
01:30If you want to leave, you'll have to step over me.
01:32And everyone knows that's bad luck.
01:34And to my surprise, he actually stepped over me to leave.
01:38I hated babysitters and caused as many problems
01:41as I could to get my dad to come back.
01:43He used to be late for work pretty much every day
01:46and had to sneak out during lunch
01:48and leave early to take care of me.
01:49So you can imagine what happened next.
01:52I got fired.
01:53Yay!
01:54Daddy's at home forever.
01:55Yeah!
01:56I was ecstatic, thinking things would go back to normal
02:00when I got the biggest shock of my life, kindergarten.
02:03I cried all the way and threw a total hissy fit
02:06at the front gates.
02:07Why?
02:09To learn and get a good job when you're older.
02:11Jobs suck.
02:12You'll make lots of friends.
02:14Friends suck.
02:15I hated it and let everybody know that I did.
02:18I hated, I hated, I hated, I hated, I hated, I hated.
02:21Stop!
02:22Dad got more calls from the kindergarten
02:25than the principal's secretary.
02:26I know what you're thinking.
02:28I was a little monster.
02:29And yes, I was.
02:31I just couldn't help it.
02:32I wanted to be with my dad so bad.
02:34Soon, kindergarten turned to school,
02:36but things didn't improve.
02:38I felt so alone and sad without my dad
02:41and I was always getting into trouble.
02:42But then one day, I got the best news ever.
02:45I know how unhappy you are at school.
02:47So I talked with the principal
02:48and I'll take a job at your school as a janitor.
02:51This way, we can spend all the time you want together
02:53and I can have a job.
02:54God knows we need the money.
02:56I know it's not glamorous,
02:57but would it be too embarrassing for you?
02:59What?
03:00Just you and me again?
03:01This is the best job ever!
03:03But there is one condition.
03:04You must behave because if not, I'll get fired.
03:08You promise?
03:09Oh, I promise.
03:10Pinky promise!
03:10And for some years, things were amazing.
03:13We drove to school and worked together,
03:15sat together at lunch,
03:16and whenever he'd go past my classroom mopping the floor,
03:19he'd give me a goofy wave.
03:21For the first time, I focused on my schoolwork
03:23because I didn't want to mess up our arrangement.
03:25Other kids were even inviting me to parties.
03:27You should go.
03:28Make some friends.
03:29Maybe you could come with me?
03:31Annie, you must learn to do things without me.
03:33Rely on other people.
03:35Really?
03:36Maybe you're right.
03:36I guess I can go for like half an hour.
03:39Nah, let's just hang out here and watch TV.
03:41But then it all changed.
03:43I was supposed to be meeting some peeps at the movies,
03:45but then remembered Dad's favorite TV show was on.
03:48So I decided to go back home and watch it with him.
03:51But when I opened the door,
03:52I found that Dad was having dinner with a woman
03:55with candles and flowers on the table.
03:57Annie, Angel, I was expecting you.
04:00This is Fern, my new friend.
04:02Hello, Annie.
04:03I've heard so much about you.
04:05It's great to meet you at last.
04:06Funny, I've heard absolutely nothing about you.
04:09I was hoping we'd spend some time with Fern, Annie.
04:13Three's a crowd.
04:14Suddenly, I felt so jealous.
04:16Why would he want to spend time with her and not me?
04:19Soon, Fern became a permanent fixture at our place.
04:22Despite my grumpy face when she was around,
04:25she was always super nice to me.
04:26Wanna hit the shops?
04:28I have the biggest discount card.
04:30Maybe you can use it to buy another book
04:32on winning over skeptical teenagers.
04:34And at school, Dad was always calling her.
04:37She even joined us for lunch some days.
04:39I tried to do everything to get his attention
04:41when they were together.
04:42Like the time in the canteen,
04:43she'd made us all sandwiches and I pretended to choke.
04:46Poison!
04:47They were too busy staring into each other's eyes to notice.
04:51Soon, Fern moved into the house.
04:53Even though I kept moving her things around,
04:55she was always calm and supportive.
04:57You can always talk to me about anything, you know.
04:59I'm fine.
05:00You and your dad have such a special relationship.
05:03I wouldn't want to come between you two.
05:05Well, cheers for that.
05:06You can rely on me too.
05:08I'll always have your best interests at heart.
05:10Yikes, is that the time?
05:12Gotta run.
05:12It felt like Dad was slipping away from me.
05:15But at the same time,
05:16I was also starting to become independent.
05:18During that time, I joined the chess club
05:20and quickly showed talent.
05:22No doubt thanks to all those games with my dad.
05:24I even won the school tournament
05:26and got invited to represent the school
05:28in an international tournament in Belgium.
05:31I knew it was a life-changing trip,
05:33but I also knew that my dad's job as a janitor
05:36didn't pay much.
05:37He would not be able to afford the expenses of such a trip.
05:40So I had to decline the offer.
05:42I was pretty sad about it.
05:43And soon things got even worse.
05:45That same afternoon, I got to class
05:48and one of the more popular girls was sitting in my seat,
05:51slurping on a milkshake and making fun of me.
05:53Look at me.
05:54I'm Annie and I'm so lame because my dad's my BFF.
05:58Great, that's really mature.
06:00Now move your butt from my seat.
06:02Oh no.
06:03You better call your personal janitor
06:05to clean up this mess.
06:06What mess?
06:07I shouldn't have asked,
06:08as she threw her milkshake on the floor on purpose.
06:11This mess.
06:12What are you waiting for?
06:12You better call Daddy.
06:14I jumped on her and tipped the rest
06:16of the milkshake over her.
06:17And that's when the teacher intervened.
06:19I got after school detention.
06:21I was really scared that dad would find out,
06:23but thankfully he went home after finishing his shift.
06:26I was super relieved.
06:27But then on my way out from detention,
06:30I heard a weird rustling noise from one of the classrooms.
06:33That's odd.
06:34Everybody went home already.
06:35I thought it was best to get out of there.
06:37But suddenly a man in a ski mask rushed out of a classroom
06:40holding a bag full of the school laptops.
06:43Oh no, a thief.
06:44I froze in my spot as he spotted me
06:46and stopped for a few seconds,
06:48then started running down the hallway.
06:50As he ran past me,
06:51he accidentally hit me with the bag of laptops
06:54and I yelled in pain as I stumbled to the floor.
06:57Oh my God.
06:57Are you okay?
06:58I looked up in shock as I recognized that voice.
07:01Dad?
07:02Suddenly he dropped the bag and ran down the hallway
07:04and out of the school.
07:05I tried to follow him, but he was too fast.
07:08So I sprinted home and there he was,
07:10Dad, completely out of breath
07:12and with the ski mask in his hand.
07:14The first thing he told me was to keep my voice down
07:17so Fern wouldn't hear.
07:18Dad, seriously?
07:19Stealing from the school?
07:21Are you crazy?
07:22Annie, you've got it all wrong.
07:23Oh, really?
07:24Ski mask, swag bag?
07:26Come on.
07:27Keep it down, will you?
07:27We can't let Fern hear this.
07:29Start talking.
07:30I did it for you, Annie.
07:32Professor Carker told me about the chess tournament
07:34and the trip to Belgium.
07:35He told me that you turned him down
07:37without even telling me.
07:38I want the best for you.
07:39I don't want you to lose out on something like this
07:41because of me.
07:42But the moment I saw you,
07:43I knew I couldn't go through with it.
07:45Now we can't let the police know.
07:47They'll lock me up.
07:48If you think about it, no harm was done.
07:50Nothing was stolen.
07:51So everything's great.
07:52Of course, everything wasn't great.
07:55While his intentions were sweet,
07:56he made a huge mess in school.
07:58The principal had reported the attempted robbery
08:00to the authorities and I had to testify
08:03in front of the police as the only witness.
08:05I couldn't turn in Dad, so I had to lie.
08:07I told them that the thief was super short
08:09and had green hair.
08:11I hoped to keep a low profile about the whole thing,
08:13but the next day at school, I was treated like a hero.
08:16The girl who saved the school.
08:18My hair would have just frizzed out in fear.
08:21You're like a real superhero now.
08:23Yep, I guess that's me.
08:25Wanna hang out with us and tell us all about it?
08:27And oh, let's snap a selfie.
08:29I need to boost my feed with some genuine hero vibes.
08:32But the worst thing was, since I caught Dad red-handed,
08:35he'd become increasingly clingy and hardly left my side.
08:39I guess he was scared I'd confess the truth,
08:41but it was really annoying.
08:43Like when this really cute boy, Warren,
08:45who I liked but I didn't think had ever noticed me,
08:47talked to me.
08:48Hey, Andy, I'd love to take you out for a burger.
08:50Sorry, she's busy.
08:52Dad!
08:52Come on, hun, it's lunchtime.
08:54The first one to our seat wins the pudding.
08:56Sorry, Warren, I'll just have to go now.
08:58A burger soon, though.
08:59Sure.
09:00But soon, I started hanging out with Warren
09:02and his new friends all the time,
09:03while Dad's excuses to drop by
09:05became increasingly awkward and downright embarrassing.
09:09I came by to check if you've seen my lost mop.
09:13Thought it might've wandered into your classroom.
09:15And he'd always pick the worst times to barge in.
09:18I think I'm falling for you in a big way.
09:21I think we need to clear the air here.
09:22Dad!
09:23I'd had enough, and on the way home,
09:25I thought of ways to let him down gently.
09:27But I ended up screaming the truth at him in the driveway.
09:31Dad, it's time for a reality check.
09:33You can't shadow me forever.
09:35How about picking up a hobby
09:36that doesn't involve stalking me?
09:37You're suffocating me.
09:39Then he looked down and rolled his puppy dog eyes.
09:42I began to feel very guilty.
09:45But then, big news popped up on my phone.
09:47A very short man with green hair
09:49had been arrested for the school robbery.
09:52And it was all because of me.
09:54Annie, we must go on the run.
09:56No, Dad, you need to confess.
09:58Confess to what?
09:59And suddenly, we both turned around
10:00and Fern was standing there with the groceries.
10:03To not cleaning the bathroom properly.
10:05You have never cleaned it properly, Annie.
10:08Oh, I think my sock drawer needs some reorganizing.
10:11Annie, you can tell me anything.
10:13I'll always take your side.
10:14You can trust me.
10:15I didn't tell Fern.
10:16I thought she wouldn't understand.
10:18I tried to forget the whole thing, but I felt so guilty.
10:21That innocent guy was in jail because of me and my dad,
10:24and we needed to set the record straight.
10:26But I just couldn't turn my father over to the police.
10:28That night, I didn't sleep at all.
10:31I was so angry at my dad that the next morning,
10:33I skipped breakfast and took the bus to school.
10:35But when I got there, I saw him getting into a cop car.
10:39Dad!
10:39Loads of people were standing around watching and filming,
10:43and I was mortified.
10:44I tried to make my way through, but when I reached the police
10:47car, it drove away from the school.
10:48Then the principal came over and pointed at me.
10:51Warren and my friends were shocked.
10:53It seems Annie isn't a superhero after all.
10:56She was an accomplice to her dad.
10:58I've never felt such deep shame.
11:00If I had superpowers, I'd have vanished right there
11:03or zapped myself to the North Pole.
11:05I covered my face, crying, and was
11:07ready to run away from there.
11:09But a cop caught my arm.
11:10Time to face the music and confess.
11:12But when I finally told the truth,
11:15I felt like a weight had been lifted from my shoulders.
11:17They let me off with just a warning since I was a minor,
11:20and my dad took full responsibility.
11:22Fern came to pick me up, and I was enraged with her.
11:26I knew she couldn't be trusted.
11:27How could you betray us like that?
11:29I must confess that I heard you guys whispering around.
11:32I quickly understood what was happening,
11:34and I knew I had to step in.
11:36You didn't deserve to live with that huge secret
11:39and with the guilt.
11:40I knew it was the right thing to call the police,
11:42and I was about to do it, but then I just couldn't.
11:45Not to save your dad, but because I
11:46know how close you guys are and how devastating
11:49it would be for you.
11:50I just didn't want to hurt you.
11:52I started crying.
11:53Thank you, Fern, for everything, and I'm
11:55sorry for being a brat with you.
11:57Fern hugged me firmly, and I hugged her back.
11:59During those hard times, we became really close.
12:02She took me home and stood firmly
12:04by my side through it all.
12:06But if you didn't turn him in, then who did?
12:08Some weeks later, they allowed me to visit dad.
12:11I confess everything myself.
12:13It was unfair that someone else was arrested,
12:15and it felt even worse that you lied for me.
12:17I was afraid you'd start hating me
12:19for dragging you into my mess, so I gave myself up.
12:21I'm so sorry for being such a terrible dad.
12:24Dad started crying, and I soon joined in.
12:27No, dad.
12:28You've been the best.
12:29I'm sorry I've been so difficult,
12:31and you don't need to feel like I'm missing out on anything.
12:34Promise you won't ever do anything like this again.
12:37Pinky promise.
12:38And now, a few months later, dad has been released,
12:40and we're moving with Fern to a new city for a fresh start.
12:43And I'm looking forward to making new friends.
