00:00Hi, I'm Clover, and boy have I got a crazy story to share with you.
00:04But before I spill the beans, please like and subscribe.
00:07Growing up, my mom and I were constantly butting heads.
00:10She was a marine biologist and dreamt of making me some kind of scientist too.
00:14Unfortunately for her, I loved fashion, and the only person who got me was mom's sister, Aunt Lydia.
00:20Aunt Lydia ran a small boutique in the city, and even though she didn't make much money,
00:24she was the happiest person I knew.
00:26She always encouraged me to pursue my interest in fashion, and even taught me to sew.
00:31Every day, I would skip school and run to my aunt's boutique to watch her work.
00:35And while I loved it, it didn't reflect well on my report card.
00:39You got a D in science again?
00:41You go to the best school, you have the best tutors, and you still disappoint me.
00:45When I was your age, I didn't even have a school in my area.
00:48I had to walk 10 kilometers, cross a desert, swim through a canal,
00:52and walk over three bridges to reach the nearest school.
00:55It was tough, but I was determined to make a life for myself.
00:58That's an exaggeration.
01:00You don't get in the middle of this.
01:01You're ruining my daughter's life, just like you ruined yours.
01:04You're jealous I'm happier than you'll ever be.
01:07If by happy you mean as poor as a street rat, then congratulations, you take the cake.
01:12Mom and Aunt Lydia fought a lot that night,
01:15and the next day, Aunt Lydia told me she was moving to another town.
01:18Are you leaving because of mom?
01:19No, sweetie.
01:20I'm leaving because I want to explore new opportunities.
01:24Then take me with you.
01:25I hate going to school anyway.
01:27You will finish your school and then follow your dreams.
01:30Now, I have something to keep you company while I'm gone.
01:33Aunt Lydia handed me the keys to her boutique,
01:35and the cutest Pomeranian puppy I'd ever seen in my life, Bonnie.
01:39And she became my best friend.
01:41Of course, I missed my aunt, but with Bonnie by my side, I felt less lonely.
01:44She followed me everywhere, and to my mom's horror, I even slept in my bed.
01:49Even my friends adored Bonnie, and they gave me the idea to start a vlog based on her.
01:54I posted a bunch of videos with Bonnie, but what really picked up was when I started posting
01:58videos of us dressed in coordinated outfits that I designed.
02:02By the time I was 17, my vlog with Bonnie got really popular,
02:06and people even started reaching out for custom orders.
02:09I had my aunt's old sewing machine, so I started taking orders online,
02:12and finally had my own business.
02:15Life was good, but mom still thought I was wasting my time.
02:19Not that I cared.
02:20I was busy making my dreams come true.
02:22Then one evening, I was out walking with Bonnie when I noticed a cute ribbon shop.
02:26I was checking it out, when suddenly, Bonnie started growling.
02:30I turned around and saw this girl staring in her face.
02:33I knew it was you.
02:34You're the girl who dresses up like her dog on her vlog.
02:36Excuse me?
02:37Oh, don't get me wrong.
02:38I meant that as a compliment.
02:40I'm a big fan.
02:40Her name was Daisy, and she told me she was new to the neighborhood.
02:44We talked for a while, before I noticed that it was late, so I left.
02:47The next morning, I had one of my big arguments with mom, so I was in a really sour mood,
02:52and as soon as I walked into my class, I saw Daisy sitting at the back.
02:56She saw me too, and slid into the seat next to mine.
02:59And we meet again.
03:00It's like we're destined to be friends.
03:02Anyway, we couldn't talk properly yesterday.
03:04You see, I had this really bad toothache.
03:06I was a kid when I slipped on a mop and broke my front tooth, and it just never got better.
03:11You want to see?
03:12That's, um, interesting.
03:13But I really need to focus on this class, Daisy.
03:16But why do you need to study?
03:18You're so famous and talented.
03:20Studies are for losers.
03:22You know what?
03:22We should totally hang out after school, and I'll show you this cool place.
03:25This rock is shaped like a weird tarantula.
03:28It's...
03:28Oh my god!
03:29Just stop talking!
03:30You're giving me a migraine!
03:31What part of I need to focus do you not understand?
03:34I've been a bit louder than I thought, and the whole class fell silent while Daisy looked
03:39really hurt.
03:39I wanted to apologize immediately, but before I could, the teacher asked me to leave for
03:43disrupting the lesson.
03:45Later that day, I saw Daisy sitting in the cafeteria alone and walked up to her.
03:49Can we talk?
03:50No!
03:50I need to focus on this spoon so I can bend it with my mind.
03:54I'm sorry.
03:55I had a really bad argument with my mom and took it out on you.
03:58It's just that my mom doesn't get me.
03:59She just wants me to do whatever she's saying without thinking about what I want.
04:03I get it.
04:04Parents can be so weird sometimes.
04:06My dad's a lawyer and wants me to be just like him, but I want to be a stand-up comic.
04:11Do you want to hear a joke?
04:12Why does an ant never get sick?
04:13Because it has antibodies.
04:17Oh, one more.
04:18Why does the ant never smell bad?
04:19Because it wears deodorant.
04:22Get it?
04:22Get it?
04:23It's hilarious, right?
04:25I couldn't help laughing.
04:26And after that, we ended up spending the whole day together.
04:29Daisy was nuts, but she really appreciated my work and had all these amazing ideas for
04:34my business.
04:35I won't lie.
04:36It felt good to be taken seriously.
04:38Soon, Daisy started helping me with my videos and she hung out at my house all the time.
04:42I enjoyed her company, but for some reason, Bonnie just couldn't warm up to her.
04:47Once, we were shooting in my living room one day when suddenly, Bonnie charged at Daisy
04:51and grabbed her pants.
04:53Daisy lost her mind and jumped in panic.
04:55They went round and round in circles before Daisy tripped and fell into this huge shell
05:00full of Mom's medals and trophies and everything came crashing down.
05:03Mom heard the noise and came running.
05:05Oh my God.
05:06What have you done?
05:07I worked 850 hours every week to earn these.
05:11Oh wow.
05:12You did all that and they only gave you this chunk?
05:15That's sad.
05:16Who is this stupid girl and why is she in my house?
05:19Allow me to introduce myself.
05:20I'm Daisy, Clover's best friend, and you must be her grandma, right?
05:24Listen, Grandma, I know you're very hurt that we broke these ugly old trophies, but
05:29in my defense, I was being chased by this cute but very ferocious dog and I just happened
05:33to bump into this shelf.
05:34Daisy, she's my mom.
05:36Oh, so you're the dragon lady?
05:39She doesn't mean that, Mom.
05:40We're really sorry for breaking your stuff, but it was a genuine mistake.
05:44I'm getting tired of your genuine mistakes, Clover.
05:47Now clear this mess up and I never want to see this girl in my house again.
05:51Am I clear?
05:52After that day, Daisy was banned from my house, which made me so mad.
05:57It's not like that was going to stop me from hanging out with her.
05:59Soon, it was time to fill out my college applications.
06:02I wanted to apply for a design school, but Mom was on my tail to apply for a science program
06:07and we were arguing every day.
06:09So one night, when Daisy invited me to hang out with her at this new amusement park, I
06:13decided to go because I could really use some fun.
06:16But ten minutes into it, I got a frantic call from Mom saying that someone had broken into
06:20our home.
06:21I immediately took a cab back home and found Mom standing on the porch with Bonnie.
06:25Are you okay?
06:26We're fine, thanks to Bonnie.
06:28I was getting dinner ready when she started barking and then I saw this guy jumping off the
06:32backyard fence, so I called the police.
06:34I kept screaming for you, but you weren't in your room.
06:37Where were you?
06:37I was hanging out with Daisy, but that's not important.
06:40Really?
06:41Just like it's not important to tell your mom that you applied for a design school?
06:45I got your acceptance letter in the mail today.
06:47I got accepted?
06:48Why didn't you tell me?
06:49Because you're not going.
06:51You will go to a science college like I did.
06:54Now, I've already spoken to the dean of Harvard and he's ready to slide a few grades if you
06:58do well in your first year in college.
07:00But I want to go to design school.
07:02I'm good at this.
07:03Even Daisy.
07:04Do you think I care what Daisy says?
07:06Also, you should stay away from her.
07:08A lady in the neighborhood was telling me she'd heard Daisy's dad is known to be involved
07:12in some shady business deals.
07:13She's a bad influence on you.
07:15Of course you don't approve of Daisy.
07:17How could you approve of anyone who makes me happy?
07:20First Aunt Lydia, now Daisy.
07:21That's not fair, Clover.
07:23Yes, it is.
07:24Just like it's fair enough to choose my own career path.
07:26I want to study design, so that's what I'll do.
07:29Saying that, I grabbed Bonnie's leash and walked outside.
07:32I kept walking till I cooled down, and when I stopped, I realized I was in some unknown
07:36street.
07:37I was trying to figure out my way back, when suddenly, this car stopped out of nowhere,
07:41pushed me away, grabbed Bonnie, and left.
07:44I ran after the car, screaming for help, when I turned a corner and banged right into something,
07:49and I fell and passed out.
07:51When I woke up, I was in my room with Mom and Daisy staring in my face.
07:55What happened?
07:56What is Daisy doing here?
07:57She's the one who found you passed out in front of your school.
08:00What were you doing there?
08:01My school?
08:02But I remember being out on a walk with Bonnie, and then we got lost.
08:06Oh my god, Bonnie!
08:07Someone kidnapped her!
08:08I have to find her!
08:10You'll have to rest!
08:11You're in shock!
08:12And as for Bonnie, I'll talk to my dad.
08:14I told you he's a lawyer, right?
08:15He has friends in the police department who can help.
08:17Daisy spoke to her dad, and we filed an official complaint.
08:20But a whole week went by, and we got no leads.
08:23I even reached out to my older clients and posted on my vlog, but that didn't work either.
08:28I was running out of time and patience, so I decided to speak to Daisy if she could ask
08:32her dad to fast-track the case.
08:34But when I called her, she didn't answer her phone, so I went to her place when I saw a
08:38huge truck parked outside, and people were moving furniture from inside the house.
08:42I got closer, trying to figure out what was happening, when I heard a low growling.
08:46I looked around and figured that the noise was coming from one of the crates covered with
08:51a huge cloth.
08:52I lifted the cloth, and inside was Bonnie and a few other dogs that looked just like her.
08:57Bonnie saw me and started barking, and then someone sprayed something in my face.
09:01Suddenly, my head started spinning, and everything went black.
09:05When I woke up, I was in the basement, tied to a pole, with Daisy sitting in front of me.
09:09Oh my god, what's happening, Daisy?
09:12Why am I here?
09:13Let me go!
09:14You talk so much, you're giving me a migraine.
09:17Blah, blah, blah.
09:18That's what you told me in class that day, remember?
09:20I wanted to punch your face, but I couldn't, because I needed you to get close to Bonnie.
09:25But why?
09:26That's when Daisy told me how a couple of months back, her dad made a couple of bad
09:30investments and lost all their family money.
09:33They lost our house, status, everything.
09:35Dad took this huge loan from a crazy mafia lady to start a new business, but that didn't
09:40work either.
09:41I guess he's just stupid.
09:42Anyway, now this mafia lady wants her money back, but obviously, we don't have any.
09:47So she gave us this crazy challenge to get her all these Pomeranian puppies.
09:51Apparently, these lay bags are worth a lot.
09:53Also, they're super rare.
09:55But what does this mafia lady want these dogs for?
09:58Make a code or something?
10:00Or is she just obsessed with puppies?
10:01How the heck am I supposed to know?
10:03We managed to get a few of them, but when I saw Bonnie on your vlog, I just knew I had
10:07to add her to the collection.
10:08So I came here, fooled you into being my friend, and waited for the right time to take
10:13Bonnie.
10:13I would have gotten to her way sooner, but this stupid dog almost bit my dad.
10:17He had to jump off the fence and he broke his knee.
10:19He's been limping ever since.
10:20So it was your dad who broke into my house that night.
10:23How could I have been so blind to have trusted a snake like you?
10:26No clue.
10:27Guess you're as stupid as my dad.
10:30Told you I'm funny.
10:31That's not funny.
10:32I turned around and saw Mom standing in the doorway along with Bonnie and a few policemen.
10:37I always knew you were trouble.
10:39Daisy growled at my mom before the police handcuffed her and dragged her away.
10:43As Mom untied me, Bonnie jumped in my lap and started licking my face.
10:47How did you find me, Mom?
10:49After Bonnie's kidnapping, I got paranoid and installed this tracking app on your phone.
10:53What?
10:54Relax.
10:55I didn't see you in your room, so I thought you might be at Daisy's.
10:57I'm so sorry, Mom.
10:59I should have taken your advice and never trusted her blindly.
11:02The truth is, you trusted Daisy because she showed faith in you, which I never did.
11:06And I'm really sorry.
11:08I've decided I'm sending you to Lydia next month.
11:11Her business is growing and she could use an extra hand.
11:14Really?
11:14I love you, Mom.
11:15You're the best.
