00:00Hello, everyone. My name is Toni, and this is my crazy story.

00:04I was just a baby when my parents moved from China to America.

00:08Growing up, Mom was always busy since she worked as a nurse,

00:11but Dad worked from home, and I loved spending time with him.

00:15Mom was the exact opposite. All she cared about was work.

00:19Sometimes, I tried to get her interested in my life, but it never worked.

00:23Mom, I have a huge science test tomorrow. Can you help me?

00:27Honey, my back hurts. I just finished a 48-hour shift. Can you ask your dad, please?

00:32It was always the same. As I got older, I stopped trying, and Dad became my everything.

00:38My parents have always been super proud of their Chinese culture, but I didn't care so much for it.

00:43For me, America was the only home I ever knew. Still, I was known as the nerdy girl of the school.

00:49Teachers adored me because I was a smart kid, but the kids, well, they disliked me because I loved

00:55tests and quizzes and would always remind my teachers in case they forgot.

00:59Other than academics, I was practically invisible in school. I never had a boyfriend,

01:04and the only person that thought I was cool was my best friend, Ashley.

01:08We had been friends since our first day at school. Our sheer love of mathematics connected us like

01:13two pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

01:15One time when I was in sixth grade, Dad gave me a traditional Chinese hairpin,

01:19and Ashley loved it. Whoa, such a big hairpin. It looks so awesome. So Chinese.

01:27Dad made me wear it as a symbol of good luck. Here, you try it on.

01:30Just as Ashley was checking out the pin, someone snatched it from her. It was Mason.

01:35He was the absolute worst. His mission on Earth was to annoy me every day. He was the school jock

01:42and the head of the cool squad. The guy had started school with Ashley and I, but he was our junior

01:47now because he flunked grade three twice. Wow. Good for you for bringing China to school today.

01:53Ooh, this looks cool. How much would it make it a pawn shop? Couple of cents?

01:58Give it back, Mason. Hey, come on, Tony. I was just goofing. Here, it looks good on you.

02:03Don't give it to this wacko. What did you call me? How dare you?

02:07It was always the same. Mason just loved messing with me and Ashley, and every time,

02:12it turned into some argument. That was my life. I know, not quite happening. But things flipped

02:19when I turned 15, and one day, Dad announced that he was leaving Mom and going back to China.

02:25He wanted me to come with him, but the court didn't agree with Dad. After the divorce,

02:29Mom got custody of me, and I was devastated. I tried to get Mom to send me away by being naughty,

02:35but she wouldn't budge. One day, Mom was stuck at work, and she asked me to order dinner.

02:41Instead, I invited Ashley and the entire math club for a pizza party.

02:45Are you sure your mom would be fine with this? Cut her some slack, Tony. No way. Come on,

02:51let's party. Just then, I heard a loud crash in the kitchen. Someone had broken my mother's

02:56favorite china set. Ooh, if that doesn't get her to send me to Dad, nothing else will.

03:01When Mom got back, she was pretty upset. What is the meaning of this? Tony, how would you throw

03:08a party without asking me? I wanted to, but you know, you're always busy. I didn't think you'd

03:13care. Don't say that. I care about you. Everything I do is for you to have a good life. Your dad,

03:20he left us. You, for someone else. What? You're lying. He'd never do that. Just then,

03:26Ashley interrupted and showed me her phone. It was some woman's Insta-ID, and she had wedding

03:32pictures with my dad. Even Ashley knew? No, no. This all happened because of you. I hate you.

03:39I was so angry that I ran out of the house without even thinking, and right at that moment,

03:44something hit me and knocked the wind out of my lungs. Then, everything went black. When I woke up,

03:50I tried to open my eyes, but everything was pitch black. Who turned off the lights? Put it back on.

03:56I can't see anything. Honey, the lights are on. It turned out that the impact of the accident made

04:02me lose my eyesight. I was blind. Mom informed Dad, and he wanted to talk to me on the phone,

04:08but I refused. He could have visited me from China, but he didn't. After I was discharged from

04:14the hospital, Mom had a hard time taking care of me, so Ashley was practically living with us.

04:20I wanted to be angry at her for not telling me about Dad, but I couldn't. My family drama shouldn't

04:25affect our relationship. The craziest thing happened at school today. Mr. S was teaching

04:30a class, and boom, his wig fell off. OMG, that must have been epic. I was way happier to spend time

04:38with Ashley rather than with Mom. It was her fault that Dad left in the first place, I suppose. I mean,

04:44it must have been, because she was always so busy. I can get up by myself. I'm blind, not handicapped,

04:50and you must have work. You can go. I can handle it. But over time, I noticed how Mom was home more.

04:57It was like she was changing. She wanted to be constantly by my side, and even though I was

05:02always so snappy with her, she was patient. One time, I was listening to an old birthday video

05:08recording, and hearing Dad's voice made me cry. Right then, Mom came and hugged me. Oh, Mom,

05:14how could Dad forget me so soon? It's his loss, honey. You have me. You'll always have me. I

05:21promise. Six months passed by, and the doctor suggested surgery for my eyesight, which was not

05:27only risky, but also very expensive. Mom needed time to think, and that's when the doctor suggested

05:33it would be good if I started school again. I needed to get back out into the world. But I was so

05:38terrified. As I walked into school with my cane and Ashley by my side, I could feel my heart

05:44in my mouth. I was expecting to hear mean comments, but instead, I heard kids gasp.

05:50Is it her? OMG, she's back. Yeah, she's here. And then, all of a sudden, kids started clapping.

05:58I was baffled. What's going on? Are they making fun of me, Ashley? No, everyone is lined up in the

06:06hall, clapping for you. What? But why? Well, the day was full of surprises. Kids were super nice to me in

06:14class. During lunchtime, tons of kids sat at my table. Even Mason was there. Hey, it's good to

06:20see you. School hasn't been the same without you. Why? You didn't have anyone to pick on? Ashley was

06:25here. You could have bothered her. Nah, not the same without you. Oh, I came up with a joke for you.

06:32You want to hear it? Of course you do. What do you call a blind dinosaur? Do you think you saw us?

06:38God help me, Mason. I will punch you. Oh, yeah, Mason? Tell me this. What do you call a blind reindeer?

06:45No idea. Now that's a good one. I guess Mason wasn't such a jerk after all. While everyone was

06:53always being nice to me, Mason did something different. He made me feel normal, and I liked it.

07:00He'd still tease me, call me a nerd, but now he also cared for me. Every day, the moment I'd enter

07:06school, Mason would hold my hand and guide me to class while telling me how he'd rather be doing

07:11something else. But I laughed because I knew it was the first thing he looked forward to. And whenever

07:17he rubbed his thumb on the back of my hand, I somehow felt calm. With him, soon our duo became

07:23a trio. Mason went everywhere with us. Yeah, he was still annoying, but in a sweet way. It was

07:30refreshing. Ashley, on the other hand, thought he was up to something. Why is he always hanging out with

07:35us? Like, where are his guy friends? Are we not nerds anymore? Gosh, he's always looking at you.

07:42It's weird, isn't it? Do you think he likes you? And that's why he hangs out with us?

07:46Ugh, Ashley, it isn't weird, but now you made it weird. Yeah, fine. Mason was handsome. But him being

07:53friends with us didn't mean he liked me. He was just being nice, I think. A few days later, when I got

08:00home from school, mom gave me the biggest news ever. My surgery was happening. She finally had

08:06the funds. I was super scared for the surgery, but Ashley and Mason were at the hospital when I woke up.

08:11I was so happy. It was so good to see their faces again. When I got back to school, I thought the

08:17attention from my classmates would end, but it didn't. Hey, gorgeous. Whoa, why was I feeling butterflies in my

08:24stomach seeing Mason? One of my friends is having a party tonight. Want to come? Was Mason asking me

08:30out? Was a party a date? Sure, pick me up at seven. When Mason arrived to pick me up, he looked like a

08:37million bucks, as he always did. Um, where's the ride? Are we gonna walk there? Actually, I was

08:44thinking. What if, Tony, I need to ask you a huge favor. My exams are starting soon, and you know me.

08:51It's just that I don't want to fail. Could you help you? Of course, yeah. Come on in. We studied

08:58together that night, and I realized Mason just had some attention problems. He would just get bored

09:03really fast. So over the next few weeks, I tried different ways to help him understand concepts,

09:08and he was able to. But on the day of his exam, he was still nervous. Hey, it's okay. You've worked

09:15really hard. What if I still fail? Everyone thinks I'm stupid. They must be jerks. You,

09:21are awesome, and kind, and amazing. Mason, I think, um, never mind. Just as I turned,

09:28Mason grabbed my hand and pulled me in for a kiss. It was perfect. Gosh, Tony, you are perfect.

09:35If only you could see yourself as I see you. Saying that, Mason leaned in and kissed me.

09:41The entire night, I couldn't stop thinking about the kiss. Once his exams were over, Mason asked me to

09:48the prom. And of course, I said yes. But when Ashley found out, she totally freaked out. Now

09:54something is definitely up. There's no way he would just ask you. Why not, Ashley? Am I not pretty

10:01enough? Spit it out, Ashley. That's not what I mean. I mean, it's just weird. The way he's just oh so

10:08nice all of a sudden. And of course, you're pretty. I don't know what you mean, but I'm tired of this.

10:14Mason likes me. Deal with it. I hated how she said that, but I knew Ashley had a point. Was this just

10:21a game to Mason? That night, when he came to my window, I couldn't help but ask. Mason, why did you

10:27ask me to the prom and not one of the cheerleaders? Do you still pity me as the blind girl? No. I really

10:35like you. I know we didn't start off on the right foot, but I always had a crush on you. I didn't

10:41know how to express it. I just sort of annoyed you instead. But that day after the accident happened,

10:47seeing you lying there in your pink PJs and unable to do anything, I felt horrible. When I saw you in

10:53the hospital, I knew I had to show you how I felt about you. Tony, I just… Wait a minute. How did you

10:59know I was wearing pink PJs? Were you there when the accident happened? Mason looked shocked,

11:04and I knew why. OMG, it was you, wasn't it? I just realized you don't have a car anymore.

11:11What happened? Your dad took it from you after you hit a girl with it? After you hit me?

11:16Tony, I wanted to tell you like a million times, but I couldn't. I didn't know if you'd ever

11:21talk to me again. It was an accident. You just came out of nowhere. It wasn't my fault,

11:27and yours neither. I am so sorry.

11:29Not your fault? Get out. I don't ever want to see your face. Leave. I felt like a million

11:37emotions wash over me. Ashley was right. There was no way someone like Mason could like me.

11:43He was just hanging out with me because he felt guilty. I sent a message to Ashley. She came over

11:49right away, and after learning everything, she hugged me tight. Over the next few days,

11:54I kept replaying the whole accident scene every night in my head, and I realized Mason was right.

12:00It was me who came in front of the car. I am such an idiot. I needed to make things right.

12:06I tried calling him, but he never picked up. The next day when I went to school,

12:10I looked everywhere for Mason, but he was nowhere to be found. And when mom came to pick me up,

12:15she gave me the most shocking news ever. Apparently, someone had come forward regarding my accident.

12:21It was Mason. I am shocked. That boy was your friend. He looked like a saint. He helped us so

12:28much, and in the end, he turned out to be the one responsible. I don't know what to believe.

12:34Helped us? What do you mean? He didn't tell you. He helped raise money for your surgery. He set up

12:39a GoFundMe and ran ads all over the internet. Maybe he was doing it just to not feel guilty.

12:45Mom, I gotta tell you something. I told mom all about the accident,

12:49how it was me who ran in front of the car. She immediately called her cop friend and Mason

12:55was released. I love you, mom. Thank you for everything. I'm sorry I treated you badly before

13:00and blaming you for what dad did. I love you so deeply. Later that night, I waited for Mason to

13:06come to my window. When he didn't, Ashley and I went to his. I still don't like him, but fine.

13:13I'll accept him. For you. Bet you would. As I climbed his window with Ashley's help,

13:18I caught Mason watching MSA videos on his phone. So, why didn't you tell me you helped raise money

13:24for me? Because it didn't matter. What mattered was how I felt for you. How you felt for me. How

13:29you feel for me. I'm sorry about... Before I could finish, I rose up on my toes and kissed him.

13:35So, is the offer to go to prom with you still on?
