00:00Hi, I'm Greta from Lithuania, but I moved to Seattle with mom when I was a baby.

00:05Before I go on, please like and subscribe.

00:07Even though mom and I were immigrants, we were millionaires since mom was the CEO of

00:12a huge company.

00:13I had a really good life.

00:15I was close with mom and friends with all our servants in our mansion.

00:18Then one morning, something odd happened.

00:21I woke up to find my whole body covered in red blotches.

00:25Mom took me to the doctor immediately to check if it was anything serious.

00:28After some tests, I found out I had a skin condition that caused constant rashes and

00:34there was no cure.

00:35I stared at myself in the mirror.

00:37God, I looked like an alien.

00:39Mom, what are the kids at school going to think when they see my skin?

00:43Oh, Greta, it's just a rash.

00:45It's not a big deal.

00:47Unfortunately, it was a big deal.

00:49None of the kids at school wanted to sit next to me because they were worried my skin disease

00:54was contagious.

00:55So after a while, I started covering up my skin with baggy clothes.

00:59I just didn't want anyone looking at my body.

01:02But mom was not happy with the way I dressed.

01:05Greta, you look like a homeless person in those clothes.

01:09Just because you have a skin condition doesn't mean you should stop putting effort into your

01:13appearance.

01:14But why?

01:15I'm comfortable and I'm covered up.

01:17No one will make fun of my skin.

01:20Mom wouldn't listen.

01:21Instead, I woke up one morning to find she threw away all my t-shirts and sweatpants

01:26in the garbage and bought me a whole new wardrobe of tight dresses.

01:31I was really mad mom did that.

01:34So as revenge, I refused to shower for a whole week until mom returned the dresses and bought

01:40me some new baggy clothes.

01:42She gave up on me after that.

01:44I knew I was disappointing mom, but she just didn't understand what it was like looking like

01:49me.

01:51One day when I was 15, I was studying alone in the library.

01:53Then suddenly, I saw a boy stealing my homework binder.

01:57Hey, what do you think you're doing?

01:59Calm down.

02:00I'm just borrowing this for a minute.

02:02Also, stop shouting.

02:03We're in a library if you haven't noticed.

02:05Oh, don't talk down to me.

02:07And I'm not letting you borrow any of my stuff.

02:10I snatched the books the guy took, which were sitting on his chair.

02:13But he put his hand on my shoulder.

02:15That's when I noticed his lovely hazel eyes and how handsome he was.

02:20Wait, I'm sorry.

02:22I'm failing half my subjects because I have a learning disability.

02:26I'm kind of desperate.

02:27So I was going to copy your homework.

02:29But I shouldn't do that.

02:30Especially not to a pretty girl like you.

02:33Whoa.

02:34Did the guy just call me pretty?

02:36I started blushing and offered to tutor him so he could improve his grades.

02:39And he agreed.

02:41I found out his name was Ian and he was a new student.

02:44I also discovered Ian was super attracted to me.

02:47He was always telling me how beautiful I was, even with my skin condition and baggy clothes.

02:53After a few weeks, Ian asked me out and became my boyfriend.

02:57He turned out to be a really sweet guy.

02:59Plus, dating someone so handsome really boosted my confidence.

03:03If someone like Ian could like me, maybe I wasn't so bad looking after all.

03:08One evening, I decided to invite Ian over to meet mom.

03:11But when I opened the door, Ian was standing next to a really pretty girl.

03:16This is my friend Jessica.

03:18She's from out of town and doesn't know a lot of people.

03:20I had no idea what to say.

03:22I was so uncomfortable.

03:24At dinner, mom kept complimenting Jessica on how pretty she was.

03:28And then she said something that really crossed the line.

03:31Ian, I'm curious.

03:33You're just a handsome young man and while I love Greta, she doesn't really doll herself up the way your friend here does.

03:40Why did you choose her and not someone more like Jessica?

03:44Ian looked super awkward and I fled from the table angrily.

03:48I was so sick of mom tearing me down all the time.

03:51She just couldn't believe that any guy could ever want me.

03:54But the night of prom, Ian dropped a bombshell on me.

03:58He was moving to China.

03:59I was devastated even though Ian swore we'd talk every day and soon he'd come back for me.

04:06Then one day, I woke up to discover Ian had blocked my number and there was just no way to reach him.

04:12Just like that, he'd ghosted me with no explanation.

04:16I was depressed for weeks.

04:18Oh, sweetie.

04:19We both knew the day would come where Ian would move on.

04:23I know it's always been impossible for you to think that any guy could love someone as ugly as me.

04:29But guess what?

04:30What Ian and I have is real.

04:32I know he wouldn't just shut me out like this.

04:35I need answers.

04:37I'm gonna find Ian and I'm going to talk to him.

04:40That night, I did a ton of research and found out what high school Ian was at in China.

04:45I convinced mom to fly me there so I could have closure with Ian.

04:49When I arrived at Ian's school, I asked around so I could find him.

04:53And when I did, my jaw dropped.

04:56He was dressed in flashy designer clothes and his arms were around two girls.

05:01Looks like you're having a blast.

05:04Whoa, Greta.

05:05Did you track me down?

05:08Yes, I tracked you down.

05:10Why did you ghost me?

05:11You said you loved me.

05:13Actually, I never loved you.

05:15I only dated you for your money.

05:17But my dad's business took off and I'm inheriting half the money.

05:20Which means I don't need to pretend to like you anymore.

05:23No, you're lying.

05:25I know what we had was real.

05:26I...

05:27Is that a joke?

05:28The real girl I liked was Jessica, the chick I brought to your house that night.

05:32I made out with her right after we left.

05:34Your mom was right.

05:35There's no way I could ever be into a girl like you.

05:39I couldn't take it.

05:40I slapped Ian so hard across the face he fell backwards.

05:44The last year of my life had been a complete lie.

05:47Worst of all, mom had been right about everything.

05:50I hated her and I hated Ian and I hated myself for being so undesirable.

05:56After that day, everything changed.

05:58I started covering my face with a scarf and studying every night until my brain hurt.

06:02Then, I got into the most prestigious college in America.

06:06One day, I was reading Under the Trees when a guy came up to me who apparently was reading the same book.

06:12I thought I was the only nerd around here obsessed with aliens.

06:15Nope.

06:16We're two nerds of a kind.

06:18The guy laughed and I found out his name was Ron.

06:21We instantly became friends and started hanging out every day over the next few months.

06:26After a while, I started developing feelings for him.

06:29Then one hot sunny day, Ron and I took a hike in the desert.

06:33I started sweating like crazy and started ripping off my layers.

06:37That's when I noticed Ron staring.

06:39Oh my god.

06:40You're the girl with the skin condition my twin brother Ian dated for money.

06:44The reason we never met was because I went to a boarding school for gifted kids.

06:48Wait, what?

06:49Ian and Ron were twins?

06:52You weren't the only girl Ian manipulated.

06:54Him and I grew up really poor and had to support our family from a young age.

06:58I wasn't as affected by it because I went to a boarding school.

07:01But Ian was an anxious mess.

07:04He thought if he could meet a rich girl in high school and marry her, everything would be okay.

07:09I was too stunned to speak, so I hadn't been the only one Ian had used.

07:14This whole time, I thought I hadn't been good enough or pretty enough for him.

07:19But Ian's behavior had nothing to do with me.

07:22Then suddenly, Ron took my hand and stared into my eyes.

07:26I felt my heart race.

07:28Ian was an idiot for not seeing how special and beautiful you are.

07:32Bretta, I really like you.

07:34I want what we have to be more than a friendship.

07:37My stomach was in knots.

07:39I liked Ron, but he was also the brother of the guy that used me.

07:43I didn't know if I could trust him.

07:45Um, I...

07:46Actually, I have to go.

07:48I ran from Ron before he could answer.

07:51That entire week, I did everything I could to avoid him.

07:54Then one day, as I was coming out of class, I noticed Ron following me.

07:58Okay, Bretta, I know you've been avoiding me.

08:01And I know you're weirded out that I'm Ian's brother,

08:04but that doesn't mean that I'm the same kind of guy he is.

08:07How am I supposed to know that?

08:09Why can't you just give me space?

08:11Because I have feelings for you, and I know you have feelings for me too.

08:15So what if I have feelings?

08:17You think you can just come into my life, tell me I'm special, and I'll automatically date you?

08:22I'm not desperate, Ron, and I don't need a guy to be happy.

08:25I stormed off right then and decided I wasn't taking any more chances with dating.

08:31I had better things to do.

08:33I signed up for every club at my college and completely transformed my wardrobe.

08:38My skin condition was totally visible, but I didn't care.

08:42I also wore tons of makeup and jewelry.

08:45The next day at university, everyone started mooning over my new makeover.

08:49You even look hot in your lab coat.

08:52Would you maybe want to get coffee after class?

08:55It's a possibility, but I'm pretty busy these days.

08:58And it was true.

08:59I was ready to thrive with my new look and new schedule.

09:03But that afternoon, everything turned upside down.

09:06I was buying a latte when I saw Ron sitting in the cafe.

09:09His arm was around another girl.

09:11They were on a date.

09:13Wait a minute.

09:14Why did I care?

09:15But the next morning, I saw Ron with the same girl again.

09:19She stuck like him to glue the whole day, and I wasn't able to catch Ron alone till the evening.

09:24So, you have a girlfriend now, huh?

09:27Yeah, I do have a girlfriend.

09:29Is that a problem?

09:30I guess it's just that I thought you liked me.

09:34Greta, I did like you, but you pushed me away because you didn't trust me.

09:39I didn't want to pressure you, and I eventually had to move on.

09:42Besides, I thought you said you didn't need a guy to be happy.

09:46Ron's words totally caught me off guard.

09:48It was true.

09:49I didn't need a guy to be happy.

09:51At that second, Ron's girlfriend walked over, and before I knew it, I started crying.

09:56I ran off and hid in the bathroom.

09:58It was true.

09:59I did want to be with Ron, and I totally blown my chance because I was scared.

10:05And now, it was too late.

10:07That night, I blocked Ron on all social media, and when the weekend came, I decided to go home

10:12to get away from everything.

10:14But when I got to the house, I almost fell over in shock.

10:17Mom was sitting outside with five different suitcases, and she looked like she hadn't

10:22eaten in weeks.

10:23Mom, what's going on?

10:25Greta, we're homeless.

10:27I've gone bankrupt.

10:29Bankrupt?

10:29But you have millions of dollars.

10:32I spent it all.

10:34Plastic surgery that obviously didn't work.

10:36I couldn't believe what I was hearing.

10:39I felt myself burn with rage.

10:41So, you obviously think that looking pretty is worth losing our home over?

10:45Which doesn't surprise me, since my appearance is all you'd ever talk about while I was growing

10:50up.

10:51Mom started to cry then, which just made me angrier.

10:54I arranged for us to stay at a shelter that night, but I went to bed without speaking to

10:58her.

10:59That week, I got a job at the local library so I could bring in money for Mom.

11:03Then one day, who should I see but Ron and his stupid girlfriend?

11:08Whoa, you work here now?

11:09Does that mean I can keep my overdue library books now, since I know the checkout lady?

11:15I don't have time for your jokes right now.

11:17I have other stuff to deal with, like being homeless because my mom spent too much money

11:21on plastic surgery, which is why, before I knew it, I was telling Ron all about my situation

11:26as eight other people waited behind him.

11:29I finally forced myself to stop talking, but by then, Ron's girlfriend had dragged him away

11:34and I had a bunch of annoyed customers.

11:37I was so angry at Mom, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized I'd been way

11:43too hard on her.

11:44That night at dinner, I decided to apologize to her.

11:47I shouldn't have gotten so mad about the plastic surgery.

11:50I know you did it because you're insecure with how you look.

11:53After we pay off this debt, I want you to start seeing a therapist.

11:56Oh, honey, I hate to admit it, but you're right.

12:00Thank you for being so understanding.

12:02And I'm sorry if I made you feel bad about your condition.

12:05I was dumb.

12:06Really dumb.

12:07When you left, I felt empty and regretted everything.

12:11But I knew you were too mad to forgive me.

12:13Please forgive me.

12:15Please.

12:16It's all good now, Mom.

12:17I felt so much better after talking to Mom that night.

12:20The next evening, I came back to the shelter, ready to crash.

12:24But instead, I walked in to find Ron sitting outside with Mom?

12:28Whoa, what's going on here?

12:30Greta, this young man has given us the money to pay off our debt.

12:34His dad has a company in China.

12:36Wait, pause.

12:38Ron, first of all, how did you even know where I was staying?

12:41As creepy as it sounds, I tracked you down.

12:44I got really worried when you told me all that stuff today.

12:47And then I pulled Ron aside.

12:48I don't understand.

12:50Why would you do this for me?

12:52Greta, I broke up with my girlfriend.

12:54The only reason I dated her was so I could move on from you.

12:57I've done everything I can to forget about us and give you your space because I know you've been hurt.

13:03But I need to try one more time with you.

13:06You're too special to let go of that easy.

13:08Before I knew what I was doing, I pulled Ron close and kissed him.

13:12I couldn't help it.

13:13Is that your way of saying you want to give us another chance?

13:16Look, I'm glad I took time off from dating to focus on myself.

13:21But I really like you and I'm much happier and more confident than I was in high school.

13:25I think for the first time, I'm ready for a relationship.

13:29Well, when do we start?

13:38My mission is może.

13:39Next time, I'll see you tomorrow.
