00:00Mom paid $3 million and $1 for that hair clip at a ridiculous price.
00:04Then put it on Chloe's head, Caleb said.
00:06You already have everything.
00:09Why do you have to fight Chloe for this too?
00:11Everyone told me to be generous.
00:13Chloe even wore it in front of me every day.
00:15Grace, if you like it, I can give it to you too.
00:18Even though mom bought it for me.
00:20I feel so bad for you.
00:22I can let you have it.
00:23That almost broke something in me.
00:25After that, I became even more crazy.
00:27But now, this little hair clip had come to me three years early.
00:31I didn't have to be jealous until my face twisted.
00:34I didn't have to fight until I was bleeding.
00:36So I was worth having something that belonged only to me.
00:40Thank you, all of you.
00:42It was strange.
00:43It felt like my heart, dead for so long, had finally started beating again.
00:48The Blackwoods bothered me much less often.
00:50Liam and Caleb used to show up every day.
00:53Now stopped appearing for a long time.
00:55Later, the class gossip queen told me in a mysterious voice.
01:01Chloe seems to be sick.
01:03And it's serious.
01:05She couldn't stand dad, mom, or Liam leaving her side for even a second.
01:10As long as she woke up and didn't see all three of them,
01:13she would break down crying and scream at the top of her lungs.
01:23Some classmates went to visit her together
01:25and got so scared that they dropped the flowers and ran.
01:34I heard your mom mention sending her to a school overseas.
01:37And she just lost it.
01:39She was supposed to stay home because she was unstable.
01:41But she wouldn't even let your brother go to school.
01:43She forced the whole family to stay with her at the hospital.
01:47Even Caleb got grabbed by her and couldn't leave.
01:50The stones seem to have a huge fight with your parents.
01:54My hand tightened around my pen.
01:56This was almost exactly like me in my last life.
01:59The more ignored you were, the harder you begged for attention.
02:03Crying, screaming, and acting like a lunatic.
02:07But she seemed luckier than me.
02:09My family tolerated all of it.
02:12Still, it had nothing to do with me.
02:14I was happy to have peace.
02:20While no one disturbed me,
02:21I dragged the whole class into studying hard.
02:24Anyone who refused got threatened by Jace.
02:27Finally, half a year later,
02:29I got the whole class into the best high school in the past.
02:37For the entire summer break,
02:39I didn't go back to the pack house once.
02:41Jace invited me to visit his pack.
02:44That was when I found out his father,
02:46Alpha James' territory,
02:48was deep in the snow mountains.
02:50I'd never seen mountains like that before,
02:52and I begged them to let me try climbing one.
02:54So they took me up the tallest peak in their territory.
02:58Ava, Jace's mom,
03:00drinks some hot berry tea to warm you up,
03:02had met me before.
03:03Over the past three years,
03:05she had often come to school just to see me.
03:07She always hugged me and refused to let go.
03:10Ava, you're so cute, so pretty.
03:13I like you so much.
03:16I'd love for you to be my daughter.
03:18I breathed hard
03:19and looked at the white mountain ridge in front of me.
03:22Jace shook out a blanket
03:23and draped it over my shoulders.
03:24I turned my head
03:25and saw his parents watching us,
03:27both smiling warmly.
03:29His ears turned red again.
03:30I couldn't help smiling.
03:31He froze for a second,
03:33then smiled.
03:34His eyes were bright,
03:35full of joy.
03:36It made me feel like,
03:37right here,
03:38someone's heart was beating just for me.
