Transcript

00:00:00Every boyfriend I've ever had ends up with my roommate, Isabella.

00:00:03So I went after her uncle.

00:00:04At the family table, she introduced me to him.

00:00:06This is my roommate.

00:00:07Then she wrapped herself around his arm, preening.

00:00:08Some man knocked her up, and she doesn't even know who the father is.

00:00:13Sokyo Salvador, why don't you tell her who you really are?

00:00:17Hello.

00:00:19I'm the father of your baby.

00:00:22Every boyfriend I've ever had ends up with my roommate.

00:00:25Vienna, grab me fried chicken, and bring the other thing, too.

00:00:29Now?

00:00:30Dante's staying the night.

00:00:31Don't tell me you forgot.

00:00:32Dante, my ex.

00:00:34He steals your boyfriend, then sends you shopping for him?

00:00:37I owe her a blood debt.

00:00:38You know that?

00:00:39Yes, you owe her.

00:00:41But you've already paid her back with eight boyfriends.

00:00:43It's been ten years.

00:00:45You've repaid that debt a hundred times over.

00:00:47Ten years ago, she fell into the estate lake while we were playing.

00:00:49I didn't notice until she was near death.

00:00:51Her family could have held me responsible.

00:00:53Instead, they let it go, and let my mother keep her job.

00:00:55I've been paying it back ever since.

00:00:57At twelve-thirty, I handed Isabella the bag through her half-open door.

00:01:02Was he always this twisted, making me wear this?

00:01:05Ugly men have the wildest tastes.

00:01:06Wrong size, too.

00:01:08They're way too big for him.

00:01:09Have fun.

00:01:10I'd chased Dante Russo for a year before he noticed me.

00:01:12He only spared me ten seconds to end it.

00:01:15Fine.

00:01:15Don't come crying to me.

00:01:16A week later, he posted a new girlfriend.

00:01:18Isabella.

00:01:19Doesn't it bother you, sharing a man with your best friend?

00:01:22Not at all.

00:01:23One of us takes the day shift, one takes the night.

00:01:26Want to shift yourself sometime?

00:01:27I knew what they said behind my back.

00:01:29She sucks up to Isabella like a dog.

00:01:31She'd even hand her own boyfriend over.

00:01:32All because the Morettis have money.

00:01:34She's gone insane for cash.

00:01:35I just smiled at that.

00:01:36They weren't wrong.

00:01:37I needed money badly.

00:01:39When Isabella's birthday came around, I had to run around like a maid,

00:01:42waiting on everyone while doing my best to stay out of Dante's way.

00:01:44I carried a tray out and found him lounging by the pool.

00:01:47Isabella curled against him while a crowd was glued to their screen games.

00:01:50The moment Dante spotted me, he pushed up his sunglasses, snorted.

00:01:53Vienna, I want mango.

00:01:55I knelt and spirited onto a fork for her.

00:02:00Dante, you've lost nine out of ten.

00:02:02Maybe he burned all his energy last night.

00:02:04The group howl.

00:02:05Dante rounded on me.

00:02:06I just love serving people.

00:02:08No self-respect at all.

00:02:10Isabella rescued me, sweetly.

00:02:12She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:02:14Fed me since we were kids.

00:02:16Housekeeper's daughter?

00:02:17And she wears designer clothes?

00:02:19We're close.

00:02:20I've given her a bunch of my old things.

00:02:22It's nothing.

00:02:22God, wearing your employer's clothes so much they just hand them over.

00:02:26She's clearly tasted the good life.

00:02:28No wonder she's this loyal.

00:02:30Isabella, you're too kind for your own good.

00:02:33My chest is bigger than yours.

00:02:35I couldn't fit your clothes if I tried.

00:02:39Really?

00:02:40Oh, right.

00:02:40I remember.

00:02:41That designer shirt was a gift from your last ex, wasn't it?

00:02:45How many exes do you have?

00:02:47Get her out of here.

00:02:48She's an eyesore.

00:02:50Vienna, go inside.

00:02:51I turned to leave.

00:02:52A foot shot out.

00:02:53I went straight into the pool.

00:02:54Nobody came to pull me in.

00:02:55I swallowed water twice before I dragged myself up.

00:02:58Soaked and humiliated, Isabella watched me quietly, smiling.

00:03:02Vienna, you can swim, can't you?

00:03:05Remember when we were ten you took me to that lake?

00:03:12Go change upstairs.

00:03:13My uncle's room, he's not home.

00:03:14Wear his clothes.

00:03:15I went up alone, stood in front of the mirror,

00:03:17peeled off the wet clothes, and let myself cry for a moment.

00:03:20I used to be able to swim.

00:03:21Since the day she nearly drowned, water became a nightmare I couldn't shake.

00:03:25I found an oversized shirt in the closet and pulled it on.

00:03:27A pair of man's eyes appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:03:29Salvatore Moretti, Isabella's uncle.

00:03:32I stood in front of the mirror a long while,

00:03:35steadying myself, wiping my eyes,

00:03:36then pulled an oversized shirt from the closet.

00:03:38A pair of man's eyes appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:03:41Someone was in here.

00:03:42Salvatore Moretti, lying on the bed, half asleep,

00:03:45like my crying had woken him.

00:03:46My mind went blank.

00:03:47Had he seen everything?

00:03:48I fixed my earrings, pinned my hair,

00:03:50walked out like nothing happened.

00:03:52My legs gave out the second I hit the hallway.

00:03:54I went back down and helped cut the cake.

00:03:56Halfway through the candles,

00:03:56a man in a perfectly tailored suit appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:04:00Every eye in the room followed him.

00:04:06Zio Salvatore, you're back!

00:04:09Isabella threw herself at him.

00:04:10Old enough for a boyfriend and still throwing yourself at people?

00:04:13Get down.

00:04:14Not unless you give me a birthday present.

00:04:17His eyes swept the crowd, caught on me, held a beat too long.

00:04:23A sports car.

00:04:26Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:04:27Get your license and I'll buy it.

00:04:29I studied him from the crowd.

00:04:30Sharp nose, thin lips, a clean jaw.

00:04:32His eyes found me again.

00:04:34He frowned, just slightly.

00:04:35I used to trail after Isabella just to be near him.

00:04:37He never treated me like the help's daughter.

00:04:39I was obsessed with him and never told a soul.

00:04:41Told myself I'd be brave enough to say it one day.

00:04:43Instead, I got the news of his wedding.

00:04:45Have fun.

00:04:46Need money?

00:04:46Come find me.

00:04:47He was already turning away.

00:04:48The crowd erupted the second he left.

00:04:49I slipped away toward campus.

00:04:53Leaving.

00:04:54Want a ride?

00:04:58No thanks.

00:05:00Halfway up a mountain, where are you catching a cab?

00:05:03Vienna.

00:05:04Didn't you say you wanted to ride with my uncle?

00:05:06I never said that.

00:05:07Across the road, he stood with his back to us,

00:05:09smoking, on a call.

00:05:11I'll take a cab.

00:05:12Zoe Salvador!

00:05:13She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:05:15His eyes landed on me.

00:05:16My heart clenched.

00:05:17Five minutes.

00:05:17He didn't even lower the phone all the way.

00:05:19Dante cursed and floored the gas.

00:05:21Silence the whole ride.

00:05:22Wind hit.

00:05:22I tugged my hem down.

00:05:24Cold?

00:05:25Enzo, heat up.

00:05:27A glance at my legs.

00:05:28Don't dress like that, that again.

00:05:30Every trick I had, seen through in a glance.

00:05:32The car turned wrong as we hit campus.

00:05:34I fell straight into his lap.

00:05:36Are you gonna get up?

00:05:38Sorry.

00:05:39I scrambled and my hand landed somewhere it shouldn't.

00:05:41I'd scrambled too fast and I fell again.

00:05:43Are all the girls these days this bold?

00:05:45He caught my wrist and moved me off him like closing a file.

00:05:50I got out.

00:05:51Watched the car pull away.

00:05:52He really had forgotten me.

00:05:54Another rich one?

00:05:55You wanna hook him?

00:05:57Isabella's uncle.

00:05:59You wanna hook him?

00:06:02Can you look him up for me?

00:06:05Thirty.

00:06:06Dead wife.

00:06:07Diamond bachelor.

00:06:08Not something two college kids handle.

00:06:10Shut himself down completely after she died.

00:06:12Vienna, don't play with fire.

00:06:14Isabella steals your boyfriends.

00:06:16So you're going after her uncle?

00:06:19Can I just like him?

00:06:21You've only met him once.

00:06:22I'd seen him more than that.

00:06:24He'd filled pages of a diary I burned.

00:06:26So no one would ever know.

00:06:27But he got married before I got the chance to grow up.

00:06:29Word got around that Isabella and Dante were fighting.

00:06:31She dragged me shopping.

00:06:32Unpaid muscle.

00:06:33Then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:06:34For what?

00:06:35That trashed Dante.

00:06:36Last night he didn't-

00:06:37I went in.

00:06:37She waited outside.

00:06:38Right at the register.

00:06:39I walked straight into the man I'd been pining over.

00:06:41Salvatore Moretti.

00:06:42Phone in one hand.

00:06:43Hangover pills in the other.

00:06:45I tried to hide the box.

00:06:46The cashier had no mercy.

00:06:49Sweetheart, this is the 72 hour emergency kind.

00:06:51You sure?

00:06:55I wanted to die.

00:06:56I paid.

00:06:57Grabbed the bag.

00:06:57Ran.

00:06:58A few steps out.

00:06:59I turned back to explain.

00:07:02Sir, what I bought was for-

00:07:03Soco Salvador.

00:07:05Don't tell anyone.

00:07:06Her mother would kill her.

00:07:07Her nails dug into my arm before I could open my mouth.

00:07:09Your classmate?

00:07:10Mm-hmm.

00:07:11Isabella gave me no room to explain.

00:07:13After he left, I rounded on her.

00:07:15Now he thinks that was mine.

00:07:17He'll forget it in a few days.

00:07:19You can't keep dumping your messes on me.

00:07:21Won't you?

00:07:22She looked at me, dead certain.

00:07:23She knew exactly which chain to pull.

00:07:25The blood debt.

00:07:26I didn't speak to her the whole walk home.

00:07:28She got straight on the phone with Dante, threatening, crying.

00:07:31A roommate spotting it on the balcony.

00:07:33That shirt's a new limited release.

00:07:36That shirt costs thousands.

00:07:37You're not planning to return it to my uncle?

00:07:39Isabella eyed me.

00:07:40Every roommate turned to stare.

00:07:41Can you bring it to him?

00:07:42Bring it to him yourself.

00:07:44He's a germaphobe, hates people touching his things.

00:07:46No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:07:48I'd worn his shirt.

00:07:49By the time I reached the estate, the sky had gone dark.

00:07:51I waited at the gate.

00:07:52No one answered.

00:07:53I was about to leave when his car pulled in.

00:07:55He got out, steps unsteady, startled to see me.

00:07:58Something wrong?

00:07:59I came to return your shirt.

00:08:01It's clean, I swear.

00:08:02He looked at me a few seconds.

00:08:03Come up.

00:08:04He went inside, yanked his tie off, headed for the couch.

00:08:06I reached out to steady him.

00:08:08He went rigid at my touch.

00:08:09Second floor, my room.

00:08:11Top drawer.

00:08:11Get it yourself.

00:08:12He sank into the couch, eyes closed, before I could ask what he meant.

00:08:15I went up, pulled the drawer open, and froze.

00:08:18A small square box sat inside.

00:08:20Any adult would know exactly what that was.

00:08:23Blood rushed to my head.

00:08:24The humiliation hit its peak.

00:08:25After all these years, he didn't remember me.

00:08:27He thought he could toy with me instead.

00:08:29I grabbed the box and ran back downstairs.

00:08:31Sir, I came to return your shirt, not sell myself.

00:08:35Sell?

00:08:35He frowned.

00:08:36He stared at the box a long moment, then slowly sat up and pinned me with a look that

00:08:40pressed all the air out of the room.

00:08:41Come with me.

00:08:42He walked back to his room, pulled open the drawer, and took out a different box, handing

00:08:46it to me.

00:08:46I opened it.

00:08:47A pearl necklace.

00:08:48Mine.

00:08:49Dropped it here the day I changed.

00:08:50You never said which box?

00:08:53I'm a man.

00:08:54Strange for me to keep that in a drawer?

00:08:56Completely normal.

00:08:56Perfectly normal.

00:08:57I was the strange one.

00:08:58He'd already turned to strip his shirt off.

00:09:00I caught his abs in the mirror.

00:09:02Blood rushed to my head, and I froze in place.

00:09:04How long are you going to stare?

00:09:05I fled, red-faced.

00:09:07Ten minutes later, I came back, drenched.

00:09:10Not done looking?

00:09:11I was meaning to explain the road was blocked.

00:09:13What came out instead?

00:09:14Can I stay here tonight?

00:09:16Every boyfriend I've ever had ends up with my roommate, Isabella, so I went after her

00:09:20uncle.

00:09:21At the family table, she introduced me to him.

00:09:23This is my roommate.

00:09:24Then she wrapped herself around his arm, preening.

00:09:25Some man knocked her up, and she doesn't even know who the father is.

00:09:29Sochio Salvador, why don't you tell her who you really are?

00:09:34Hello.

00:09:36Hello.

00:09:39Every boyfriend I've ever had ends up with my roommate.

00:09:42Vienna, grab me fried chicken, and bring the other thing, too.

00:09:46Now?

00:09:47Dante's staying the night.

00:09:48Don't tell me you forgot.

00:09:49Dante, my ex.

00:09:50She steals your boyfriend, then sends you shopping for him?

00:09:53I owe her a blood debt.

00:13:17Every eye in the room followed him.

00:13:23Zio Salvatore!

00:13:24You're back!

00:13:26Isabella threw herself at him.

00:13:27Old enough for a boyfriend

00:13:28and still throwing yourself at people?

00:13:30Get down.

00:13:31Not unless you give me a birthday present.

00:13:33His eyes swept the crowd,

00:13:35caught on me,

00:13:36held a beat too long.

00:13:40A sports car.

00:13:43Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:13:44Get your license and I'll buy it.

00:13:46I studied him from the crowd.

00:13:47Sharp nose,

00:13:48thin lips,

00:13:48a clean jaw.

00:13:49His eyes found me again.

00:13:50He frowned,

00:13:51just slightly.

00:13:52I used to trail after Isabella

00:13:53just to be near him.

00:13:54He never treated me like the help's daughter.

00:13:56I was obsessed with him

00:13:57and never told a soul.

00:13:58Told myself I'd be brave enough

00:13:59to say it one day.

00:14:00Instead,

00:14:00I got the news of his wedding.

00:14:02Have fun.

00:14:03Need money?

00:14:03Come find me.

00:14:04He was already turning away.

00:14:05The crowd erupted the second he left.

00:14:06I slipped away toward campus.

00:14:10Leaving.

00:14:11Want a ride?

00:14:15No thanks.

00:14:17Halfway up a mountain,

00:14:18where are you catching a cab?

00:14:20Vienna.

00:14:21Didn't you say you wanted to ride with my uncle?

00:14:23I never said that.

00:14:24Across the road,

00:14:25he stood with his back to us,

00:14:26smoking,

00:14:26on a call.

00:14:28I'll take a cab.

00:14:29Zoe Salvador!

00:14:30She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:14:31His eyes landed on me.

00:14:33My heart clenched.

00:14:33Five minutes.

00:14:34He didn't even lower the phone all the way.

00:14:36Dante cursed and floored the gas.

00:14:37Silence the whole ride.

00:14:39Wind hit.

00:14:39I tugged my hem down.

00:14:41Cold?

00:14:42Enzo,

00:14:42heat up.

00:14:44A glance at my legs.

00:14:45Don't dress like that,

00:14:46that again.

00:14:47Every trick I had,

00:14:48seen through in a glance.

00:14:49The car turned wrong as we hit campus.

00:14:51I fell straight into his lap.

00:14:53Are you gonna get up?

00:14:55Sorry.

00:14:56I scrambled,

00:14:56and my hand landed somewhere it shouldn't.

00:14:58I'd scrambled too fast,

00:14:59and I fell again.

00:15:00Are all the girls these days this bold?

00:15:02He caught my wrist,

00:15:03and moved me off him like closing a file.

00:15:07I got out,

00:15:08watched the car pull away.

00:15:09He really had forgotten me.

00:15:11Another rich one?

00:15:12You wanna hook him?

00:15:14Isabella's uncle.

00:15:16You wanna hook him?

00:15:19Can you look him up for me?

00:15:2230.

00:15:23Dead wife,

00:15:24diamond bachelor,

00:15:25not something two college kids handle.

00:15:27Shut himself down completely after she died.

00:15:29Vienna,

00:15:30don't play with fire.

00:15:31Isabella steals your boyfriends,

00:15:32so you're going after her uncle?

00:15:36Can't I just like him?

00:15:38You've only met him once.

00:15:39I'd seen him more than that.

00:15:41He'd filled pages of a diary I burned,

00:15:42so no one would ever know.

00:15:44But he got married before I got the chance to grow up.

00:15:46Word got around that Isabella and Dante were fighting.

00:15:48She dragged me shopping,

00:15:49unpaid muscle,

00:15:49then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:15:51For what?

00:15:52That trashed Dante.

00:15:53Last night he didn't-

00:15:54I went in.

00:15:54She waited outside.

00:15:55Right at the register.

00:15:56I walked straight into the man I'd been pining over.

00:15:58Salvatore Moretti.

00:15:59Phone in one hand,

00:16:00hangover pills in the other.

00:16:02I tried to hide the box.

00:16:03The cashier had no mercy.

00:16:05Sweetheart,

00:16:06this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

00:16:08You sure?

00:16:12I wanted to die.

00:16:13I paid.

00:16:13Grabbed the bag.

00:16:14Ran.

00:16:15A few steps out,

00:16:16I turned back to explain.

00:16:19Sir, what I bought was for-

00:16:20Soco Salvador!

00:16:22Don't tell anyone.

00:16:23Her mother would kill her.

00:16:24Her nails dug into my arm before I could open my mouth.

00:16:26Your classmate?

00:16:27Mm-hmm.

00:16:28Isabella gave me no room to explain.

00:16:30After he left,

00:16:31I rounded on her.

00:16:32Now he thinks that was mine.

00:16:34He'll forget it in a few days.

00:16:36You can't keep dumping your messes on me.

00:16:38Won't you?

00:16:39She looked at me,

00:16:40dead certain.

00:16:40She knew exactly which chain to pull.

00:16:42The blood debt.

00:16:43I didn't speak to her the whole walk home.

00:16:45She got straight on the phone with Dante,

00:16:46threatening,

00:16:47crying.

00:16:48A roommate spotting it on the balcony.

00:16:50That shirt's a new limited release.

00:16:53That shirt costs thousands.

00:16:54You're not planning to return it to my uncle?

00:16:56Isabella eyed me.

00:16:56Every roommate turned to stare.

00:16:58Can you bring it to him?

00:16:59Bring it to him yourself.

00:17:01He's a germaphobe,

00:17:02hates people touching his things.

00:17:03No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:17:05I'd worn his shirt.

00:17:06By the time I reached the estate,

00:17:07the sky had gone dark.

00:17:08I waited at the gate.

00:17:09No one answered.

00:17:10I was about to leave when his car pulled in.

00:17:12He got out,

00:17:12steps unsteady,

00:17:14startled to see me.

00:17:15Something wrong?

00:17:16I came to return your shirt.

00:17:18It's clean, I swear.

00:17:19He looked at me a few seconds.

00:17:20Come up.

00:17:20He went inside,

00:17:22yanked his tie off,

00:17:23headed for the couch.

00:17:23I reached out to steady him.

00:17:25He went rigid at my touch.

00:17:26Second floor,

00:17:27my room.

00:17:28Top drawer.

00:17:28Get it yourself.

00:17:29He sank into the couch,

00:17:30eyes closed,

00:17:31before I could ask what he meant.

00:17:32I went up,

00:17:33pulled the drawer open,

00:17:34and froze.

00:17:35A small square box sat inside.

00:17:37Any adult would know exactly what that was.

00:17:40Blood rushed to my head.

00:17:41The humiliation hit its peak.

00:17:42After all these years,

00:17:43he didn't remember me.

00:17:44He thought he could toy with me instead.

00:17:46I grabbed the box and ran back downstairs.

00:17:47Sir,

00:17:48I came to return your shirt,

00:17:49not sell myself.

00:17:52So?

00:17:52He frowned.

00:17:53He stared at the box a long moment,

00:17:54then slowly sat up and pinned me with a look that pressed all the air out of the room.

00:17:58Come with me.

00:17:59He walked back to his room,

00:18:00pulled open the drawer,

00:18:01and took out a different box,

00:18:03handing it to me.

00:18:03I opened it.

00:18:04A pearl necklace.

00:18:05Mine.

00:18:05Dropped it here the day I changed.

00:18:07You never said which box?

00:18:10I'm a man.

00:18:11Strange for me to keep that in a drawer?

00:18:12Completely normal.

00:18:13Perfectly normal.

00:18:14I was the strange one.

00:18:15He'd already turned to strip his shirt off.

00:18:17I caught his abs in the mirror.

00:18:18Blood rushed to my head,

00:18:19and I froze in place.

00:18:21How long are you going to stare?

00:18:22I fled,

00:18:23red-faced.

00:18:24Ten minutes later,

00:18:25I came back,

00:18:25drenched.

00:18:27Not done looking?

00:18:28I was meaning to explain the road was blocked.

00:18:30What came out instead?

00:18:31Can I stay here tonight?

00:18:33Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:18:35ends up with my roommate, Isabella.

00:18:37So I went after her uncle.

00:18:38At the family table,

00:18:39she introduced me to him.

00:18:40This is my roommate.

00:18:41Then she wrapped herself around his arm,

00:18:42preening.

00:18:42Some man knocked her up,

00:18:44and she doesn't even know who the father is.

00:18:46Sokyo Salvador,

00:18:48why don't you tell her who you really are?

00:18:51Hello.

00:18:52I'm the father of your baby.

00:18:56Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:18:58ends up with my roommate.

00:18:59Vienna, grab me fried chicken,

00:19:00and bring the other thing, too.

00:19:03Now?

00:19:04Dante's staying the night.

00:19:05Don't tell me you forgot.

00:19:06Dante, my ex.

00:19:07She steals your boyfriend,

00:19:08then sends you shopping for him?

00:19:10I owe her a blood debt.

00:19:12You know that.

00:19:13Yes, you owe her.

00:19:15But you've already paid her back

00:19:16with eight boyfriends.

00:19:17It's been ten years.

00:19:18You've repaid that debt

00:19:19a hundred times over.

00:19:20Ten years ago,

00:19:21she fell into the estate lake

00:19:22while we were playing.

00:19:23I didn't notice until she was near death.

00:19:24Her family could have held me responsible.

00:19:26Instead, they let it go.

00:19:27And let my mother keep her job.

00:19:29I've been paying it back ever since.

00:19:31At 12.30,

00:19:31I handed Isabella the bag

00:19:32through her half-open door.

00:19:35Was he always this twisted,

00:19:37making me wear this?

00:19:38Ugly men have the wildest tastes.

00:19:40Wrong size, too.

00:19:41They're way too big for him.

00:19:43Have fun.

00:19:44I chased Dante Russo

00:19:45for a year before he noticed me.

00:19:46He only spared me ten seconds to end it.

00:19:48Fine.

00:19:49Don't come crying to me.

00:19:50A week later,

00:19:51he posted a new girlfriend,

00:19:52Isabella.

00:19:53Doesn't it bother you,

00:19:54sharing a man with your best friend?

00:19:56Not at all.

00:19:57One of us takes the day shift,

00:19:59one takes the night.

00:20:00Want to shift yourself sometime?

00:20:01I knew what they said behind my back.

00:20:03She sucks up to Isabella like a dog.

00:20:04She'd even hand her own boyfriend over.

00:20:06All because the Morettis have money.

00:20:08She's gone insane for cash.

00:20:09I just smiled at that.

00:20:10They weren't wrong.

00:20:11I needed money badly.

00:20:13When Isabella's birthday came around,

00:20:15I had to run around like a maid,

00:20:16waiting on everyone while doing my best

00:20:17to stay out of Dante's way.

00:20:18I carried a tray out

00:20:19and found him lounging by the pool.

00:20:21Isabella curled against him

00:20:22while a crowd was glued to their screen games.

00:20:24The moment Dante spotted me,

00:20:25he pushed up his sunglasses,

00:20:26snorted,

00:20:27Vienna,

00:20:27I want mango.

00:20:29I knelt and spirited onto a fork for her.

00:20:34Dante, you've lost nine out of ten.

00:20:36Maybe he burned all his energy last night.

00:20:38The group howl.

00:20:39Dante rounded on me.

00:20:40Just love serving people.

00:20:41No self-respect at all.

00:20:44Isabella rescued me, sweetly.

00:20:46She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:20:48Fed me since we were kids.

00:20:50Housekeeper's daughter?

00:20:51And she wears designer clothes?

00:20:53We're close.

00:20:54I've given her a bunch of my old things.

00:20:55It's nothing.

00:20:56God, wearing your employer's clothes so much

00:20:58they just hand them over.

00:21:00She's clearly tasted the good life.

00:21:02No wonder she's this loyal.

00:21:04Isabella, you're too kind for your own good.

00:21:07My chest is bigger than yours.

00:21:09I couldn't fit your clothes if I tried.

00:21:12Really?

00:21:14Oh, right, I remember.

00:21:15That designer shirt was a gift from your last ex,

00:21:17wasn't it?

00:21:19How many exes do you have?

00:21:21Get her out of here.

00:21:22She's an eyesore.

00:21:24Vienna, go inside.

00:21:25I turned to leave.

00:21:26A foot shot out.

00:21:27I went straight into the pool.

00:21:28Nobody came to pull me in.

00:21:29I swallowed water twice before I dragged myself up.

00:21:32Soaked and humiliated,

00:21:33Isabella watched me quietly, smiling.

00:21:36Vienna, you can swim, can't you?

00:21:39Remember when we were ten,

00:21:40you took me to that lake?

00:21:46Go change upstairs.

00:21:47My uncle's room, he's not home.

00:21:48Wear his clothes.

00:21:49I went up alone,

00:21:50stood in front of the mirror,

00:21:51peeled off the wet clothes,

00:21:52and let myself cry for a moment.

00:21:54I used to be able to swim.

00:21:55Since the day she nearly drowned,

00:21:57water became a nightmare I couldn't shake.

00:21:58I found an oversized shirt in the closet

00:22:00and pulled it on.

00:22:01A pair of man's eyes appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:22:06I stood in front of the mirror a long while,

00:22:08steadying myself,

00:22:09wiping my eyes,

00:22:10then pulled an oversized shirt from the closet.

00:22:12A pair of man's eyes appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:22:15Someone was in here.

00:22:16Salvatore Moretti.

00:22:17Lying on the bed,

00:22:18half asleep,

00:22:18like my crying had woken him.

00:22:20My mind went blank.

00:22:21Had he seen everything?

00:22:22I fixed my earrings,

00:22:23pinned my hair,

00:22:24walked out like nothing happened.

00:22:26My legs gave out the second I hit the hallway.

00:22:28I went back down and helped cut the cake.

00:22:29Halfway through the candles,

00:22:30a man in a perfectly tailored suit

00:22:32appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:22:34Every eye in the room followed him.

00:22:40Zio Salvadori!

00:22:41You're back!

00:22:43Isabella threw herself at him.

00:22:44Old enough for a boyfriend

00:22:45and still throwing yourself at people?

00:22:47Get down.

00:22:48Not unless you give me a birthday present.

00:22:50His eyes swept the crowd,

00:22:52caught on me,

00:22:52held a beat too long.

00:22:57A sports car.

00:23:00Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:23:01Get your license and I'll buy it.

00:23:02I studied him from the crowd.

00:23:04Sharp nose,

00:23:05thin lips,

00:23:05a clean jaw.

00:23:06His eyes found me again.

00:23:07He frowned,

00:23:08just slightly.

00:23:09I used to trail after Isabella

00:23:10just to be near him.

00:23:11He never treated me like the help's daughter.

00:23:13I was obsessed with him

00:23:14and never told a soul.

00:23:15Told myself I'd be brave enough

00:23:16to say it one day.

00:23:17Instead,

00:23:17I got the news of his wedding.

00:23:19Have fun.

00:23:20Need money?

00:23:20Come find me.

00:23:21He was already turning away.

00:23:22The crowd erupted the second he left.

00:23:23I slipped away toward campus.

00:23:27Leaving.

00:23:28Want a ride?

00:23:32No thanks.

00:23:34Halfway up a mountain,

00:23:35where are you catching a cab?

00:23:37Vienna.

00:23:38Didn't you say you wanted to ride with my uncle?

00:23:40I never said that.

00:23:41Across the road,

00:23:42he stood with his back to us,

00:23:43smoking,

00:23:43on a call.

00:23:45I'll take a cab.

00:23:46Zoe Salvador!

00:23:47She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:23:48His eyes landed on me.

00:23:49My heart clenched.

00:23:50Five minutes.

00:23:51He didn't even lower the phone all the way.

00:23:53Dante cursed and floored the gas.

00:23:54Silence the whole ride.

00:23:56Wind hit.

00:23:56I tugged my hem down.

00:23:57Cold?

00:23:59Enzo,

00:23:59heat up.

00:24:00A glance at my legs.

00:24:02Don't dress like that,

00:24:03that again.

00:24:04Every trick I had,

00:24:05seen through in a glance.

00:24:06The car turned wrong as we hit campus.

00:24:08I fell straight into his lap.

00:24:10Are you gonna get up?

00:24:12Sorry.

00:24:13I scrambled,

00:24:13and my hand landed somewhere it shouldn't.

00:24:15I'd scrambled too fast,

00:24:16and I fell again.

00:24:17Are all the girls these days this bold?

00:24:19He caught my wrist,

00:24:20and moved me off him like closing a file.

00:24:24I got out,

00:24:25watched the car pull away.

00:24:26He really had forgotten me.

00:24:28Another rich one?

00:24:29You wanna hook him?

00:24:31Isabella's uncle.

00:24:33You wanna hook him?

00:24:36Can you look him up for me?

00:24:39Thirty.

00:24:40Dead wife,

00:24:41diamond bachelor,

00:24:42not something two college kids handle.

00:24:44Shut himself down completely after she died.

00:24:46Vienna,

00:24:46don't play with fire.

00:24:48Isabella steals your boyfriends,

00:24:49so you're going after her uncle?

00:24:53Can't I just like him?

00:24:55You've only met him once.

00:24:56I'd seen him more than that.

00:24:57He'd filled pages of a diary I burned,

00:24:59so no one would ever know.

00:25:01But he got married before I got the chance to grow up.

00:25:03Word got around that Isabella and Dante were fighting.

00:25:05She dragged me shopping,

00:25:06unpaid muscle,

00:25:06then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:25:07For what?

00:25:09That trashed Dante.

00:25:10Last night he didn't-

00:25:11I went in.

00:25:11She waited outside.

00:25:12Right at the register.

00:25:13I walked straight into the man I'd been pining over.

00:25:15Salvatore Moretti.

00:25:16Phone in one hand,

00:25:17hangover pills in the other.

00:25:18I tried to hide the box.

00:25:20The cashier had no mercy.

00:25:22Sweetheart,

00:25:23this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

00:25:25You sure?

00:25:29I wanted to die.

00:25:30I paid,

00:25:30grabbed the bag,

00:25:31ran.

00:25:32A few steps out,

00:25:32I turned back to explain.

00:25:36Sir, what I bought was for-

00:25:37Soco Salvador!

00:25:39Don't tell anyone.

00:25:40Her mother would kill her.

00:25:41Her nails dug into my arm

00:25:42before I could open my mouth.

00:25:43Your classmate?

00:25:44Mm-hmm.

00:25:45Isabella gave me no room to explain.

00:25:47After he left,

00:25:48I rounded on her.

00:25:49Now he thinks that was mine.

00:25:51He'll forget it in a few days.

00:25:53You can't keep dumping your messes on me.

00:25:55Won't you?

00:25:56She looked at me,

00:25:57dead certain.

00:25:57She knew exactly which chain to pull.

00:25:59The blood debt.

00:26:00I didn't speak to her the whole walk home.

00:26:02She got straight on the phone with Dante,

00:26:03threatening,

00:26:04crying.

00:26:04A roommate spotting it on the balcony.

00:26:07That shirt's a new limited release.

00:26:09That shirt costs thousands.

00:26:11You're not planning to return it to my uncle?

00:26:13Isabella eyed me.

00:26:13Every roommate turned to stare.

00:26:15Can you bring it to him?

00:26:16Bring it to him yourself.

00:26:18He's a germaphobe,

00:26:19hates people touching his things.

00:26:20No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:26:22I'd worn his shirt.

00:26:23By the time I reached the estate,

00:26:24the sky had gone dark.

00:26:25I waited at the gate.

00:26:26No one answered.

00:26:27I was about to leave when his car pulled in.

00:26:29He got out,

00:26:29steps unsteady,

00:26:30startled to see me.

00:26:32Something wrong?

00:26:33I came to return your shirt.

00:26:34It's clean,

00:26:35I swear.

00:26:35He looked at me a few seconds.

00:26:37Come up.

00:26:38He went inside,

00:26:38yanked his tie off,

00:26:40headed for the couch.

00:26:40I reached out to steady him.

00:26:42He went rigid at my touch.

00:26:43Second floor,

00:26:44my room,

00:26:45top drawer.

00:26:45Get it yourself.

00:26:46He sank into the couch,

00:26:47eyes closed,

00:26:48before I could ask what he meant.

00:26:49I went up,

00:26:50pulled the drawer open,

00:26:51and froze.

00:26:52A small square box sat inside.

00:26:54Any adult would know exactly what that was.

00:26:57Blood rushed to my head.

00:26:58The humiliation hit its peak.

00:26:59After all these years,

00:27:00he didn't remember me.

00:27:01He thought he could toy with me instead.

00:27:03I grabbed the box and ran back downstairs.

00:27:04Sir,

00:27:05I came to return your shirt,

00:27:06not sell myself.

00:27:09So?

00:27:09He frowned.

00:27:10He stared at the box a long moment,

00:27:11then slowly sat up,

00:27:12and pinned me with a look

00:27:13that pressed all the air out of the room.

00:27:15Come with me.

00:27:16He walked back to his room,

00:27:17pulled open the drawer,

00:27:18and took out a different box,

00:27:20handing it to me.

00:27:20I opened it.

00:27:21A pearl necklace.

00:27:22Mine.

00:27:22Dropped it here the day I changed.

00:27:24You never said which box?

00:27:26I'm a man.

00:27:28Strange for me to keep that in a drawer?

00:27:29Completely normal.

00:27:30Perfectly normal.

00:27:31I was the strange one.

00:27:32He'd already turned to strip his shirt off.

00:27:34I caught his abs in the mirror.

00:27:35Blood rushed to my head,

00:27:36and I froze in place.

00:27:38How long are you gonna stare?

00:27:39I fled,

00:27:40red-faced.

00:27:41Ten minutes later,

00:27:42I came back,

00:27:42drenched.

00:27:44Not done looking?

00:27:45I was meaning to explain

00:27:46the road was blocked.

00:27:47What came out instead?

00:27:47Can I stay here tonight?

00:27:50Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:27:52ends up with my roommate,

00:27:53Isabella,

00:27:53so I went after her uncle.

00:27:55At the family table,

00:27:55she introduced me to him.

00:27:56This is my roommate.

00:27:57Then she wrapped herself

00:27:58around his arm,

00:27:59preening.

00:27:59Some man knocked her up,

00:28:00and she doesn't even know

00:28:01who the father is.

00:28:03Sochio Salvador,

00:28:05why don't you tell her

00:28:06who you really are?

00:28:08Hello.

00:28:09I'm the father of your baby.

00:28:13Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:28:15ends up with my roommate.

00:28:16Vienna,

00:28:16grab me fried chicken

00:28:17and bring the other thing too.

00:28:20Now?

00:28:21Dante's staying the night.

00:28:22Don't tell me you forgot.

00:28:23Dante,

00:28:23my ex.

00:28:24She steals your boyfriend

00:28:25then sends you shopping for him?

00:28:27I owe her a blood debt.

00:28:29You know that?

00:28:30Yes,

00:28:31you owe her,

00:28:32but you've already paid her back

00:28:33with eight boyfriends.

00:28:34It's been ten years.

00:28:35You've repaid that debt

00:28:36a hundred times over.

00:28:37Ten years ago,

00:28:38she fell into the estate lake

00:28:39while we were playing.

00:28:40I didn't notice

00:28:41until she was near death.

00:28:41Her family could have

00:28:42held me responsible.

00:28:43Instead,

00:28:44they let it go

00:28:44and let my mother keep her job.

00:28:46I've been paying it back

00:28:47ever since.

00:28:47At 12.30,

00:28:48I handed Isabella the bag

00:28:49through her half-open door.

00:28:52Was he always this twisted,

00:28:54making me wear this?

00:28:55Ugly men have the wildest tastes.

00:28:57Wrong size, too.

00:28:58They're way too big for him.

00:29:00Have fun.

00:29:00I chased Dante Russo

00:29:02for a year before he noticed me.

00:29:03He only spared me

00:29:04ten seconds to end it.

00:29:05Fine.

00:29:06Don't come crying to me.

00:29:07A week later,

00:29:08he posted a new girlfriend,

00:29:09Isabella.

00:29:10Doesn't it bother you,

00:29:11sharing a man

00:29:12with your best friend?

00:29:13Not at all.

00:29:14One of us takes the day shift,

00:29:15one takes the night.

00:29:17Want to shift yourself sometime?

00:29:18I knew what they said

00:29:19behind my back.

00:29:20She sucks up to Isabella

00:29:21like a dog.

00:29:21She'd even hand

00:29:22her own boyfriend over.

00:29:23All because the Morettis

00:29:24have money.

00:29:24She's gone insane for cash.

00:29:26I just smiled at that.

00:29:27They weren't wrong.

00:29:28I needed money badly.

00:29:30When Isabella's birthday

00:29:31came around,

00:29:31I had to run around

00:29:32like a maid,

00:29:33waiting on everyone

00:29:33while doing my best

00:29:34to stay out of Dante's way.

00:29:35I carried a tray out

00:29:36and found him lounging

00:29:37by the pool.

00:29:37Isabella curled against him

00:29:38while a crowd was glued

00:29:39to their screen games.

00:29:40The moment Dante spotted me,

00:29:42he pushed up his sunglasses,

00:29:43snorted.

00:29:44Vienna,

00:29:44I want mango.

00:29:46I knelt and spirited

00:29:47onto a fork for her.

00:29:51Dante,

00:29:52you've lost nine out of ten.

00:29:53Maybe he burned

00:29:53all his energy last night.

00:29:55The group howled.

00:29:56Dante rounded on me.

00:29:57I just love serving people.

00:29:58No self-respect at all.

00:30:00Isabella rescued me,

00:30:02sweetly.

00:30:03She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:30:04Fed me since we were kids.

00:30:07Housekeeper's daughter?

00:30:08And she wears designer clothes?

00:30:10We're close.

00:30:11I've given her a bunch

00:30:12of my old things.

00:30:12It's nothing.

00:30:13God,

00:30:14wearing your employer's clothes

00:30:15so much they just hand them over.

00:30:17She's clearly tasted

00:30:18the good life.

00:30:19No wonder she's this loyal.

00:30:21Isabella,

00:30:22you're too kind

00:30:22for your own good.

00:30:24My chest is bigger than yours.

00:30:26I couldn't fit your clothes

00:30:27if I tried.

00:30:29Really?

00:30:30Oh, right.

00:30:31I remember.

00:30:32That designer shirt

00:30:33was a gift from your last ex,

00:30:34wasn't it?

00:30:36How many exes do you have?

00:30:38Get her out of here.

00:30:38She's an eyesore.

00:30:40Vienna, go inside.

00:30:42I turned to leave.

00:30:43A foot shot out.

00:30:44I went straight into the pool.

00:30:45Nobody came to pull me in.

00:30:46I swallowed water twice

00:30:47before I dragged myself up.

00:30:49Soaked and humiliated,

00:30:50Isabella watched me quietly,

00:30:51smiling.

00:30:53Vienna, you can swim,

00:30:54can't you?

00:30:56Remember when we were ten

00:30:57you took me to that lake?

00:31:02Go change upstairs.

00:31:04My uncle's room,

00:31:04he's not home.

00:31:05Wear his clothes.

00:31:06I went up alone,

00:31:07stood in front of the mirror,

00:31:08peeled off the wet clothes,

00:31:09and let myself cry for a moment.

00:31:11I used to be able to swim.

00:31:12Since the day she nearly drowned,

00:31:14water became a nightmare

00:31:14I couldn't shake.

00:31:15I found an oversized shirt

00:31:16in the closet

00:31:17and pulled it on.

00:31:18A pair of man's eyes

00:31:19appeared in the mirror

00:31:19behind me.

00:31:20Salvatore Moretti,

00:31:21Isabella's uncle.

00:31:23I stood in front of the mirror

00:31:24a long while,

00:31:25steadying myself,

00:31:26wiping my eyes,

00:31:27then pulled an oversized shirt

00:31:28from the closet.

00:31:29A pair of man's eyes

00:31:30appeared in the mirror

00:31:31behind me.

00:31:32Someone was in here.

00:31:33Salvatore Moretti,

00:31:34lying on the bed,

00:31:35half asleep,

00:31:35like my crying had woken him.

00:31:37My mind went blank.

00:31:38Had he seen everything?

00:31:39I fixed my earrings,

00:31:40pinned my hair,

00:31:41walked out like nothing happened.

00:31:42My legs gave out

00:31:43the second I hit the hallway.

00:31:45I went back down

00:31:45and helped cut the cake.

00:31:46Halfway through the candles,

00:31:47a man in a perfectly tailored suit

00:31:49appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:31:50Every eye in the room

00:31:51followed him.

00:31:57Zio Salvatore,

00:31:58you're back!

00:31:59Isabella threw herself at him.

00:32:01Old enough for a boyfriend

00:32:02and still throwing yourself at people?

00:32:04Get down.

00:32:05Not unless you give me

00:32:06a birthday present.

00:32:07His eyes swept the crowd,

00:32:09caught on me,

00:32:09held a beat too long.

00:32:14A sports car.

00:32:17Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:32:18Get your license

00:32:19and I'll buy it.

00:32:19I studied him from the crowd,

00:32:21sharp nose,

00:32:21thin lips,

00:32:22a clean jaw.

00:32:23His eyes found me again.

00:32:24He frowned,

00:32:25just slightly.

00:32:26I used to trail after Isabella

00:32:27just to be near him.

00:32:28He never treated me

00:32:29like the help's daughter.

00:32:30I was obsessed with him

00:32:30and never told a soul.

00:32:32Told myself I'd be brave enough

00:32:33to say it one day.

00:32:34Instead,

00:32:34I got the news of his wedding.

00:32:36Have fun.

00:32:36Need money?

00:32:37Come find me.

00:32:37He was already turning away.

00:32:39The crowd erupted

00:32:39the second he left.

00:32:40I slipped away toward campus.

00:32:44Leaving.

00:32:45Want a ride?

00:32:49No thanks.

00:32:51Halfway up a mountain,

00:32:52where are you catching a cab?

00:32:54Vienna.

00:32:55Didn't you say

00:32:55you wanted to ride

00:32:56with my uncle?

00:32:56I never said that.

00:32:58Across the road,

00:32:59he stood with his back to us,

00:33:00smoking,

00:33:00on a call.

00:33:02I'll take a cab.

00:33:03Zoe Salvador!

00:33:04She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:33:05His eyes landed on me.

00:33:06My heart clenched.

00:33:07Five minutes.

00:33:08He didn't even lower

00:33:09the phone all the way.

00:33:10Dante cursed

00:33:10and floored the gas.

00:33:11Silence the whole ride.

00:33:12Wind hit.

00:33:13I tugged my hem down.

00:33:14Cold?

00:33:16Enzo,

00:33:16heat up.

00:33:17A glance at my legs.

00:33:19Don't dress like that

00:33:20that again.

00:33:21Every trick I had,

00:33:22seen through in a glance.

00:33:23The car turned wrong

00:33:24as we hit campus.

00:33:25I fell straight into his lap.

00:33:26Are you gonna get up?

00:33:29Sorry.

00:33:30I scrambled

00:33:30and my hand landed

00:33:31somewhere it shouldn't.

00:33:32I'd scrambled too fast

00:33:33and I fell again.

00:33:34Are all the girls

00:33:34these days this bold?

00:33:36He caught my wrist

00:33:37and moved me off him

00:33:37like closing a file.

00:33:40I got out.

00:33:42Watched the car pull away.

00:33:43He really had forgotten me.

00:33:45Another rich one?

00:33:46You wanna hook him?

00:33:48Isabella's uncle.

00:33:50You wanna hook him?

00:33:53Can you look him up for me?

00:33:5630.

00:33:57Dead wife.

00:33:58Diamond bachelor.

00:33:59Not something two college kids handle.

00:34:00Shut himself down completely

00:34:02after she died.

00:34:03Vienna,

00:34:03don't play with fire.

00:34:05Isabella steals your boyfriends.

00:34:06So you're going after her uncle?

00:34:10Can I just like him?

00:34:11You've only met him once.

00:34:13I'd seen him more than that.

00:34:14He'd filled pages

00:34:15of a diary I burned

00:34:16so no one would ever know.

00:34:17But he got married

00:34:18before I got the chance

00:34:19to grow up.

00:34:20Word got around

00:34:20that Isabella and Dante

00:34:21were fighting.

00:34:22She dragged me shopping.

00:34:23Unpaid muscle.

00:34:23Then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:34:24For what?

00:34:25That trash Dante?

00:34:27Last night he didn't-

00:34:27I went in.

00:34:28She waited outside.

00:34:29Right at the register.

00:34:30I walked straight into the man

00:34:31I'd been pining over.

00:34:32Salvatore Moretti.

00:34:33Phone in one hand.

00:34:34Hangover pills in the other.

00:34:35I tried to hide the box.

00:34:37The cashier had no mercy.

00:34:39Sweetheart,

00:34:40this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

00:34:42You sure?

00:34:45I wanted to die.

00:34:47I paid,

00:34:47grabbed the bag,

00:34:48ran.

00:34:49A few steps out,

00:34:49I turned back to explain.

00:34:52Sir,

00:34:53what I bought was for-

00:34:54Soco Salvador!

00:34:56Don't tell anyone.

00:34:57Her mother would kill her.

00:34:58Her nails dug into my arm

00:34:59before I could open my mouth.

00:35:00Your classmate?

00:35:01Mm-hmm.

00:35:02Isabella gave me no room

00:35:03to explain.

00:35:04After he left,

00:35:05I rounded on her.

00:35:06Now he thinks that was mine.

00:35:08He'll forget it in a few days.

00:35:09You can't keep dumping

00:35:11your messes on me.

00:35:12Won't you?

00:35:13She looked at me,

00:35:14dead certain.

00:35:14She knew exactly

00:35:15which chain to pull.

00:35:16The blood debt.

00:35:17I didn't speak to her

00:35:17the whole walk home.

00:35:19She got straight on the phone

00:35:19with Dante,

00:35:20threatening,

00:35:21crying.

00:35:21A roommate spotting it

00:35:23on the balcony.

00:35:23That shirt's a new

00:35:24limited release.

00:35:26That shirt costs thousands.

00:35:28You're not planning

00:35:28to return it to my uncle?

00:35:29Isabella eyed me.

00:35:30Every roommate turned to stare.

00:35:32Can you bring it to him?

00:35:33Bring it to him yourself.

00:35:35He's a germaphobe,

00:35:36hates people touching his things.

00:35:37No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:35:39I'd worn his shirt.

00:35:40By the time I reached the estate,

00:35:41the sky had gone dark.

00:35:42I waited at the gate.

00:35:43No one answered.

00:35:44I was about to leave

00:35:45when his car pulled in.

00:35:46He got out,

00:35:46steps unsteady,

00:35:47startled to see me.

00:35:48Something wrong?

00:35:50I came to return your shirt.

00:35:51It's clean, I swear.

00:35:52He looked at me

00:35:53a few seconds.

00:35:54Come up.

00:35:54He went inside,

00:35:55yanked his tie off,

00:35:56headed for the couch.

00:35:57I reached out to steady him.

00:35:59He went rigid at my touch.

00:36:00Second floor,

00:36:01my room,

00:36:01top drawer.

00:36:02Get it yourself.

00:36:03He sank into the couch,

00:36:04eyes closed,

00:36:05before I could ask what he meant.

00:36:06I went up,

00:36:07pulled the drawer open,

00:36:08and froze.

00:36:09A small square box sat inside.

00:36:11Any adult would know

00:36:11exactly what that was.

00:36:13Blood rushed to my head.

00:36:15The humiliation hit its peak.

00:36:16After all these years,

00:36:17he didn't remember me.

00:36:18He thought he could

00:36:19toy with me instead.

00:36:19I grabbed the box

00:36:20and ran back downstairs.

00:36:21Sir,

00:36:22I came to return your shirt,

00:36:23not sell myself.

00:36:25So?

00:36:26He frowned.

00:36:27He stared at the box

00:36:27a long moment,

00:36:28then slowly sat up

00:36:29and pinned me with a look

00:36:30that pressed all the air

00:36:31out of the room.

00:36:32Come with me.

00:36:33He walked back to his room,

00:36:34pulled open the drawer,

00:36:35and took out a different box.

00:36:36Handing it to me,

00:36:37I opened it.

00:36:38A pearl necklace.

00:36:39Mine.

00:36:39Dropped it here

00:36:40the day I changed.

00:36:41You never said which box?

00:36:43I'm a man.

00:36:45Strange for me

00:36:45to keep that in a drawer.

00:36:46Completely normal.

00:36:47Perfectly normal.

00:36:48I was the strange one.

00:36:49He'd already turned

00:36:50to strip his shirt off.

00:36:51I caught his abs

00:36:52in the mirror.

00:36:52Blood rushed to my head,

00:36:53and I froze in place.

00:36:55How long are you

00:36:55going to stare?

00:36:56I fled,

00:36:57red-faced.

00:36:58Ten minutes later,

00:36:58I came back,

00:36:59drenched.

00:37:01Not done looking?

00:37:02I was meaning to explain

00:37:03the road was blocked.

00:37:04What came out instead?

00:37:05Can I stay here tonight?

00:37:07Every boyfriend

00:37:08I've ever had

00:37:09ends up with my roommate,

00:37:10Isabella,

00:37:10so I went after her uncle.

00:37:12At the family table,

00:37:12she introduced me to him.

00:37:13This is my roommate?

00:37:14Then she wrapped herself

00:37:15around his arm,

00:37:16preening.

00:37:16Some man knocked her up,

00:37:17and she doesn't even know

00:37:18who the father is.

00:37:20Sokio Salvador,

00:37:22why don't you tell her

00:37:23who you really are?

00:37:25Hello.

00:37:26I'm the father

00:37:27of your baby.

00:37:30Every boyfriend

00:37:31I've ever had

00:37:31ends up with my roommate.

00:37:33Vienna,

00:37:33grab me fried chicken

00:37:34and bring the other thing, too.

00:37:37Now?

00:37:38Dante's staying the night.

00:37:39Don't tell me you forgot.

00:37:40Dante, my ex.

00:37:41She steals your boyfriend,

00:37:42then sends you

00:37:43shopping for him?

00:37:44I owe her a blood debt.

00:37:45You know that?

00:37:47Yes, you owe her.

00:37:49But you've already

00:37:49paid her back

00:37:50with eight boyfriends.

00:37:51It's been ten years.

00:37:52You've repaid that debt

00:37:53a hundred times over.

00:37:54Ten years ago,

00:37:55she fell into the estate lake

00:37:56while we were playing.

00:37:57I didn't notice

00:37:57until she was near death.

00:37:58Her family could have

00:37:59held me responsible.

00:38:00Instead,

00:38:01they let it go

00:38:01and let my mother

00:38:02keep her job.

00:38:03I've been paying it back

00:38:04ever since.

00:38:04At twelve thirty,

00:38:05I handed Isabella

00:38:06the bag through

00:38:06her half-open door.

00:38:09Was he always

00:38:10this twisted,

00:38:11making me wear this?

00:38:12Ugly men have

00:38:13the wildest tastes.

00:38:14Wrong size, too.

00:38:15They're way too big

00:38:16for him.

00:38:16Have fun.

00:38:17I'd chased Dante Russo

00:38:19for a year

00:38:19before he noticed me.

00:38:20He only spared me

00:38:21ten seconds to end it.

00:38:22Fine.

00:38:23Don't come crying to me.

00:38:24A week later,

00:38:25he posted a new girlfriend,

00:38:26Isabella.

00:38:27Doesn't it bother you,

00:38:28sharing a man

00:38:29with your best friend?

00:38:30Not at all.

00:38:31One of us takes

00:38:32the day shift,

00:38:32one takes the night.

00:38:34Want to shift

00:38:34yourself sometime?

00:38:35I knew what they said

00:38:36behind my back.

00:38:36She sucks up to Isabella

00:38:38like a dog.

00:38:38She'd even hand

00:38:39her own boyfriend over.

00:38:40All because the Morettis

00:38:41have money.

00:38:41She's gone insane

00:38:42for cash.

00:38:43I just smiled at that.

00:38:44They weren't wrong.

00:38:45I needed money badly.

00:38:47When Isabella's birthday

00:38:48came around,

00:38:48I had to run around

00:38:49like a maid,

00:38:50waiting on everyone

00:38:50while doing my best

00:38:51to stay out of Dante's way.

00:38:52I carried a tray out

00:38:53and found him lounging

00:38:54by the pool.

00:38:54Isabella curled against him

00:38:55while a crowd was glued

00:38:56to their screen games.

00:38:57The moment Dante spotted me,

00:38:59he pushed up his sunglasses,

00:39:00snorted.

00:39:00Vienna,

00:39:01I want mango.

00:39:03I knelt and spirited

00:39:04onto a fork for her.

00:39:08Dante,

00:39:08you've lost nine out of ten.

00:39:10Maybe he burned

00:39:10all his energy last night.

00:39:12The group howled.

00:39:13Dante rounded on me.

00:39:14Just love serving people.

00:39:15No self-respect at all.

00:39:17Isabella rescued me,

00:39:19sweetly.

00:39:20She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:39:21Fed me since we were kids.

00:39:24Housekeeper's daughter?

00:39:25And she wears designer clothes?

00:39:27We're close.

00:39:28I've given her a bunch

00:39:29of my old things.

00:39:29It's nothing.

00:39:30God,

00:39:31wearing your employer's

00:39:31clothes so much

00:39:32they just hand them over.

00:39:34She's clearly tasted

00:39:35the good life.

00:39:36No wonder she's this loyal.

00:39:38Isabella,

00:39:38you're too kind

00:39:39for your own good.

00:39:41My chest is bigger than yours.

00:39:42I couldn't fit your clothes

00:39:43if I tried.

00:39:46Really?

00:39:47Oh, right.

00:39:48I remember.

00:39:49That designer shirt

00:39:50was a gift from your last ex,

00:39:51wasn't it?

00:39:52How many exes do you have?

00:39:55Get her out of here.

00:39:55She's an eyesore.

00:39:57Vienna,

00:39:58go inside.

00:39:59I turned to leave.

00:40:00A foot shot out.

00:40:01I went straight into the pool.

00:40:02Nobody came to pull me in.

00:40:03I swallowed water twice

00:40:04before I dragged myself up.

00:40:06Soaked and humiliated,

00:40:07Isabella watched me quietly,

00:40:08smiling.

00:40:10Vienna,

00:40:11you can swim,

00:40:11can't you?

00:40:13Remember when we were ten

00:40:14you took me to that lake?

00:40:19Go change upstairs.

00:40:21My uncle's room,

00:40:21he's not home.

00:40:22Wear his clothes.

00:40:23I went up alone,

00:40:24stood in front of the mirror,

00:40:25peeled off the wet clothes,

00:40:26and let myself cry for a moment.

00:40:28I used to be able to swim.

00:40:29Since the day she nearly drowned,

00:40:31water became a nightmare

00:40:31I couldn't shake.

00:40:32I found an oversized shirt

00:40:33in the closet

00:40:34and pulled it on.

00:40:35A pair of man's eyes

00:40:36appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:40:37Salvatore Moretti,

00:40:38Isabella's uncle.

00:40:40I stood in front of the mirror

00:40:41a long while,

00:40:42steadying myself,

00:40:43wiping my eyes,

00:40:44then pulled an oversized shirt

00:40:45from the closet.

00:40:46A pair of man's eyes

00:40:47appeared in the mirror behind me.

00:40:49Someone was in here.

00:40:50Salvatore Moretti,

00:40:51lying on the bed,

00:40:52half asleep,

00:40:52like my crying had woken him.

00:40:54My mind went blank.

00:40:55Had he seen everything?

00:40:56I fixed my earrings,

00:40:57pinned my hair,

00:40:58walked out like nothing happened.

00:40:59My legs gave out

00:41:00the second I hit the hallway.

00:41:01I went back down

00:41:02and helped cut the cake.

00:41:03Halfway through the candles,

00:41:04a man in a perfectly tailored suit

00:41:06appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:41:07Every eye in the room

00:41:08followed him.

00:41:14Zio Salvatore,

00:41:15you're back!

00:41:16Isabella threw herself at him.

00:41:18Old enough for a boyfriend

00:41:19and still throwing yourself at people?

00:41:20Get down.

00:41:22Not unless you give me

00:41:23a birthday present.

00:41:24His eyes swept the crowd,

00:41:26caught on me,

00:41:26held a beat too long.

00:41:31A sports car.

00:41:33Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:41:35Get your license and I'll buy it.

00:41:36I studied him from the crowd.

00:41:38Sharp nose,

00:41:38thin lips,

00:41:39a clean jaw.

00:41:40His eyes found me again.

00:41:41He frowned,

00:41:42just slightly.

00:41:43I used to trail after Isabella

00:41:44just to be near him.

00:41:45He never treated me

00:41:45like the help's daughter.

00:41:46I was obsessed with him

00:41:47and never told a soul.

00:41:49Told myself I'd be brave enough

00:41:50to say it one day.

00:41:51Instead,

00:41:51I got the news of his wedding.

00:41:53Have fun.

00:41:53Need money?

00:41:54Come find me.

00:41:54He was already turning away.

00:41:55The crowd erupted

00:41:56the second he left.

00:41:57I slipped away toward campus.

00:42:01Leaving.

00:42:02Want a ride?

00:42:06No thanks.

00:42:08Halfway up a mountain,

00:42:09where are you catching a cab?

00:42:11Vienna.

00:42:11Didn't you say

00:42:12you wanted to ride with my uncle?

00:42:13I never said that.

00:42:15Across the road,

00:42:15he stood with his back to us,

00:42:17smoking,

00:42:17on a call.

00:42:19I'll take a cab.

00:42:20Zoe Salvador!

00:42:21She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:42:22His eyes landed on me.

00:42:23My heart clenched.

00:42:24Five minutes.

00:42:25He didn't even lower the phone

00:42:26all the way.

00:42:27Dante cursed and floored the gas.

00:42:28Silence the whole ride.

00:42:29Wind hit.

00:42:30I tugged my hem down.

00:42:31Cold?

00:42:32Enzo, heat up.

00:42:34A glance at my legs.

00:42:36Don't dress like that,

00:42:37that again.

00:42:37Every trick I had,

00:42:39seen through in a glance.

00:42:40The car turned wrong

00:42:40as we hit campus.

00:42:41I fell straight into his lap.

00:42:43Are you gonna get up?

00:42:46Sorry.

00:42:47I scrambled and my hand

00:42:48landed somewhere it shouldn't.

00:42:49I'd scrambled too fast

00:42:50and I fell again.

00:42:51Are all the girls

00:42:51these days this bold?

00:42:53He caught my wrist

00:42:54and moved me off him

00:42:54like closing a file.

00:42:57I got out,

00:42:58watched the car pull away.

00:43:00He really had forgotten me.

00:43:02Another rich one?

00:43:03You wanna hook him?

00:43:05Isabella's uncle.

00:43:07You wanna hook him?

00:43:10Can you look him up for me?

00:43:1330.

00:43:13Dead wife,

00:43:15diamond bachelor,

00:43:15not something

00:43:16two college kids handle.

00:43:17Shut himself down

00:43:18completely after she died.

00:43:20Vienna,

00:43:20don't play with fire.

00:43:22Isabella steals your boyfriends,

00:43:23so you're going after her uncle?

00:43:27Can I just like him?

00:43:28You've only met him once.

00:43:30I'd seen him more than that.

00:43:31He'd filled pages

00:43:32of a diary I burned,

00:43:33so no one would ever know.

00:43:34But he got married

00:43:35before I got the chance

00:43:36to grow up.

00:43:37Word got around

00:43:37that Isabella and Dante

00:43:38were fighting.

00:43:38She dragged me shopping,

00:43:39unpaid muscle,

00:43:40then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:43:41For what?

00:43:42That trashed Dante.

00:43:44Last night he didn't-

00:43:44I went in.

00:43:45She waited outside.

00:43:46Right at the register.

00:43:47I walked straight into the man

00:43:48I'd been pining over.

00:43:49Salvatore Moretti.

00:43:50Phone in one hand,

00:43:51hangover pills in the other.

00:43:52I tried to hide the box.

00:43:53The cashier had no mercy.

00:43:56Sweetheart,

00:43:57this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

00:43:59You sure?

00:44:02I wanted to die.

00:44:04I paid,

00:44:04grabbed the bag,

00:44:05ran.

00:44:05A few steps out,

00:44:06I turned back to explain.

00:44:09Sir, what I bought was for-

00:44:11So go Salvador.

00:44:13Don't tell anyone.

00:44:14Her mother would kill her.

00:44:15Her nails dug into my arm

00:44:16before I could open my mouth.

00:44:17Your classmate?

00:44:18Mm-hmm.

00:44:19Isabella gave me no room to explain.

00:44:21After he left,

00:44:22I rounded on her.

00:44:23Now he thinks that was mine.

00:44:25He'll forget it in a few days.

00:44:26You can't keep dumping

00:44:27your messes on me.

00:44:29Won't you?

00:44:30She looked at me,

00:44:30dead certain.

00:44:31She knew exactly which chain to pull.

00:44:33The blood debt.

00:44:34I didn't speak to her

00:44:34the whole walk home.

00:44:35She got straight on the phone

00:44:36with Dante,

00:44:37threatening,

00:44:38crying.

00:44:38A roommate spotting it

00:44:39on the balcony.

00:44:40That shirt's a new

00:44:41limited release.

00:44:43That shirt costs thousands.

00:44:45You're not planning

00:44:45to return it to my uncle?

00:44:46Isabella eyed me.

00:44:47Every roommate turned to stare.

00:44:49Can you bring it to him?

00:44:50Bring it to him yourself.

00:44:51He's a germaphobe,

00:44:53hates people touching his things.

00:44:54No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:44:55I'd worn his shirt.

00:44:56By the time I reached the estate,

00:44:58the sky had gone dark.

00:44:59I waited at the gate.

00:45:00No one answered.

00:45:01I was about to leave

00:45:01when his car pulled in.

00:45:02He got out,

00:45:03steps unsteady,

00:45:04startled to see me.

00:45:05Something wrong?

00:45:07I came to return your shirt.

00:45:08It's clean, I swear.

00:45:09He looked at me a few seconds.

00:45:11Come up.

00:45:11He went inside,

00:45:12yanked his tie off,

00:45:13headed for the couch.

00:45:14I reached out to steady him.

00:45:16He went rigid at my touch.

00:45:17Second floor,

00:45:18my room.

00:45:18Top drawer.

00:45:19Get it yourself.

00:45:20He sank into the couch,

00:45:21eyes closed,

00:45:22before I could ask what he meant.

00:45:23I went up,

00:45:24pulled the drawer open,

00:45:25and froze.

00:45:26A small square box sat inside.

00:45:27Any adult would know

00:45:28exactly what that was.

00:45:30Blood rushed to my head.

00:45:32The humiliation hit its peak.

00:45:33After all these years,

00:45:34he didn't remember me.

00:45:35He thought he could toy

00:45:36with me instead.

00:45:36I grabbed the box

00:45:37and ran back downstairs.

00:45:38Sir,

00:45:39I came to return your shirt,

00:45:40not sell myself.

00:45:42So?

00:45:43He frowned.

00:45:43He stared at the box

00:45:44a long moment,

00:45:45then slowly sat up

00:45:46and pinned me with a look

00:45:47that pressed all the air

00:45:48out of the room.

00:45:49Come with me.

00:45:50He walked back to his room,

00:45:51pulled open the drawer,

00:45:52and took out a different box,

00:45:53handing it to me.

00:45:54I opened it.

00:45:55A pearl necklace.

00:45:56Mine.

00:45:56Dropped it here the day I changed.

00:45:58You never said which box?

00:46:00I'm a man.

00:46:02Strange for me to keep that in a drawer.

00:46:03Completely normal.

00:46:04Perfectly normal.

00:46:05I was the strange one.

00:46:06He'd already turned

00:46:07to strip his shirt off.

00:46:08I caught his abs in the mirror.

00:46:09Blood rushed to my head,

00:46:10and I froze in place.

00:46:11How long are you gonna stare?

00:46:13I fled,

00:46:14red-faced.

00:46:15Ten minutes later,

00:46:15I came back,

00:46:16drenched.

00:46:18Not done looking?

00:46:19I was meaning to explain

00:46:20the road was blocked.

00:46:21What came out instead?

00:46:22Can I stay here tonight?

00:46:24Every boyfriend

00:46:25I've ever had

00:46:26ends up with my roommate,

00:46:27Isabella,

00:46:27so I went after her uncle.

00:46:28At the family table,

00:46:29she introduced me to him.

00:46:30This is my roommate.

00:46:31Then she wrapped herself

00:46:32around his arm,

00:46:32preening.

00:46:33Some man knocked her up,

00:46:34and she doesn't even know

00:46:35who the father is.

00:46:37Sokio Salvador,

00:46:39why don't you tell her

00:46:40who you really are?

00:46:42Hello.

00:46:43I'm the father of your baby.

00:46:47Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:46:48ends up with my roommate.

00:46:50Vienna,

00:46:50grab me fried chicken,

00:46:51and bring the other thing, too.

00:46:53Now?

00:46:55Dante's staying the night.

00:46:56Don't tell me you forgot.

00:46:57Dante,

00:46:57my ex.

00:46:58He steals your boyfriend,

00:46:59then sends you shopping for him?

00:47:01I owe her a blood debt.

00:47:03You know that?

00:47:04Yes,

00:47:05you owe her.

00:47:05But you've already paid her back

00:47:07with eight boyfriends.

00:47:08It's been ten years.

00:47:09You've repaid that debt

00:47:10a hundred times over.

00:47:11Ten years ago,

00:47:12she fell into the estate lake

00:47:13while we were playing.

00:47:14I didn't notice

00:47:14until she was near death.

00:47:15Her family could have

00:47:16held me responsible.

00:47:17Instead,

00:47:18they let it go

00:47:18and let my mother keep her job.

00:47:20I've been paying it back

00:47:20ever since.

00:47:21At 12.30,

00:47:22I handed Isabella the bag

00:47:23through her half-open door.

00:47:26Was he always this twisted,

00:47:28making me wear this?

00:47:29Ugly men have the wildest tastes.

00:47:31Wrong size, too.

00:47:32They're way too big for him.

00:47:33Have fun.

00:47:34I chased Dante Russo

00:47:35for a year

00:47:36before he noticed me.

00:47:37He only spared me

00:47:38ten seconds to end it.

00:47:39Fine.

00:47:40Don't come crying to me.

00:47:41A week later,

00:47:42he posted a new girlfriend,

00:47:43Isabella.

00:47:44Doesn't it bother you,

00:47:45sharing a man

00:47:45with your best friend?

00:47:47Not at all.

00:47:48One of us takes the day shift,

00:47:49one takes the night.

00:47:51Want to shift yourself sometime?

00:47:52I knew what they said

00:47:53behind my back.

00:47:53She sucks up to Isabella

00:47:54like a dog.

00:47:55She'd even hand

00:47:56her own boyfriend over.

00:47:57All because the Morettis

00:47:58have money.

00:47:58She's gone insane

00:47:59for cash.

00:48:00I just smiled at that.

00:48:01They weren't wrong.

00:48:02I needed money badly.

00:48:04When Isabella's birthday

00:48:05came around,

00:48:05I had to run around

00:48:06like a maid,

00:48:07waiting on everyone

00:48:07while doing my best

00:48:08to stay out of Dante's way.

00:48:09I carried a tray out

00:48:10and found him lounging

00:48:11by the pool.

00:48:11Isabella curled against him

00:48:12while a crowd was glued

00:48:13to their screen games.

00:48:14The moment Dante spotted me,

00:48:15he pushed up his sunglasses,

00:48:17snorted.

00:48:17Vienna?

00:48:18I want mango.

00:48:20I knelt and spirited

00:48:21onto a fork for her.

00:48:25Dante, you've lost

00:48:26nine out of ten.

00:48:27Maybe he burned

00:48:27all his energy last night.

00:48:29The group howled.

00:48:30Dante rounded on me.

00:48:31Love serving people.

00:48:32No self-respect at all.

00:48:34Isabella rescued me,

00:48:36sweetly.

00:48:36She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:48:38Fed me since we were kids.

00:48:40Housekeeper's daughter?

00:48:42And she wears designer clothes?

00:48:44We're close.

00:48:45I've given her a bunch

00:48:46of my old things.

00:48:46It's nothing.

00:48:47God, wearing your employer's

00:48:48clothes so much

00:48:49they just hand them over.

00:48:51She's clearly tasted

00:48:52the good life.

00:48:53No wonder she's this loyal.

00:48:55Isabella, you're too kind

00:48:56for your own good.

00:48:58My chest is bigger than yours.

00:48:59I couldn't fit your clothes

00:49:00if I tried.

00:49:03Really?

00:49:04Oh, right.

00:49:05I remember.

00:49:06That designer shirt

00:49:07was a gift from your last ex,

00:49:08wasn't it?

00:49:09How many exes do you have?

00:49:11Get her out of here.

00:49:12She's an eyesore.

00:49:14Vienna, go inside.

00:49:15I turned to leave.

00:49:17A foot shot out.

00:49:18I went straight into the pool.

00:49:19Nobody came to pull me in.

00:49:20I swallowed water twice

00:49:21before I dragged myself up.

00:49:22Soaked and humiliated,

00:49:24Isabella watched me quietly,

00:49:25smiling.

00:49:27Vienna, you can swim,

00:49:28can't you?

00:49:30Remember when we were ten

00:49:31you took me to that lake?

00:49:36Go change upstairs.

00:49:38My uncle's room,

00:49:38he's not home.

00:49:39Wear his clothes.

00:49:40I went up alone,

00:49:41stood in front of the mirror,

00:49:42peeled off the wet clothes,

00:49:43and let myself cry for a moment.

00:49:45I used to be able to swim.

00:49:46Since the day she nearly drowned,

00:49:47water became a nightmare

00:49:48I couldn't shake.

00:49:49I found an oversized shirt

00:49:50in the closet

00:49:51and pulled it on.

00:49:52A pair of man's eyes

00:49:52appeared in the mirror

00:49:53behind me.

00:49:54Salvatore Moretti,

00:49:55Isabella's uncle.

00:49:57I stood in front of the mirror

00:49:58a long while,

00:49:59steadying myself,

00:50:00wiping my eyes,

00:50:01then pulled an oversized shirt

00:50:02from the closet.

00:50:03A pair of man's eyes

00:50:04appeared in the mirror

00:50:05behind me.

00:50:05Someone was in here.

00:50:07Salvatore Moretti,

00:50:08lying on the bed,

00:50:08half asleep,

00:50:09like my crying had woken him.

00:50:11My mind went blank.

00:50:12Had he seen everything?

00:50:13I fixed my earrings,

00:50:14pinned my hair,

00:50:15walked out like nothing happened.

00:50:16My legs gave out

00:50:17the second I hit the hallway.

00:50:18I went back down

00:50:19and helped cut the cake.

00:50:20Halfway through the candles,

00:50:21a man in a perfectly tailored suit

00:50:23appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:50:24Every eye in the room

00:50:25followed him.

00:50:31Zio Salvatore,

00:50:32you're back!

00:50:33Isabella threw herself at him.

00:50:35Old enough for a boyfriend

00:50:36and still throwing yourself

00:50:37at people?

00:50:37Get down.

00:50:39Not unless you give me

00:50:40a birthday present.

00:50:41His eyes swept the crowd,

00:50:42caught on me,

00:50:43held a beat too long.

00:50:48A sports car.

00:50:50Half the room sucked in a breath.

00:50:52Get your license

00:50:53and I'll buy it.

00:50:53I studied him from the crowd.

00:50:54Sharp nose,

00:50:55thin lips,

00:50:56a clean jaw.

00:50:57His eyes found me again.

00:50:58He frowned,

00:50:59just slightly.

00:50:59I used to trail after Isabella

00:51:01just to be near him.

00:51:02He never treated me

00:51:02like the help's daughter.

00:51:03I was obsessed with him

00:51:04and never told a soul.

00:51:06Told myself I'd be brave enough

00:51:07to say it one day.

00:51:08Instead,

00:51:08I got the news of his wedding.

00:51:09Have fun.

00:51:10Need money?

00:51:11Come find me.

00:51:11He was already turning away.

00:51:12The crowd erupted

00:51:13the second he left.

00:51:14I slipped away toward campus.

00:51:18Leaving.

00:51:18Want a ride?

00:51:22No thanks.

00:51:25Halfway up a mountain,

00:51:26where are you catching a cab?

00:51:28Vienna,

00:51:29didn't you say

00:51:29you wanted to ride

00:51:29with my uncle?

00:51:30I never said that.

00:51:32Across the road,

00:51:32he stood with his back to us,

00:51:34smoking,

00:51:34on a call.

00:51:35I'll take a cab.

00:51:37Zoe Salvador!

00:51:38She dragged me to his car anyway.

00:51:39His eyes landed on me.

00:51:40My heart clenched.

00:51:41Five minutes.

00:51:42He didn't even lower

00:51:42the phone all the way.

00:51:43Dante cursed

00:51:44and floored the gas.

00:51:45Silence the whole ride.

00:51:46Wind hit.

00:51:47I tugged my hem down.

00:51:48Cold?

00:51:49Enzo,

00:51:50heat up.

00:51:51A glance at my legs.

00:51:53Don't dress like that

00:51:54that again.

00:51:54Every trick I had,

00:51:55seen through in a glance.

00:51:57The car turned wrong

00:51:57as we hit campus.

00:51:58I fell straight

00:51:59into his lap.

00:52:00Are you gonna get up?

00:52:03Sorry.

00:52:03I scrambled

00:52:04and my hand landed

00:52:05somewhere it shouldn't.

00:52:05I'd scrambled too fast

00:52:07and I fell again.

00:52:08Are all the girls

00:52:08these days this bold?

00:52:10He caught my wrist

00:52:10and moved me off him

00:52:11like closing a file.

00:52:14I got out,

00:52:15watched the car pull away.

00:52:16He really had forgotten me.

00:52:19Another rich one?

00:52:20You wanna hook him?

00:52:22Isabella's uncle.

00:52:24You wanna hook him?

00:52:27Can you look him up for me?

00:52:3030.

00:52:31Dead wife,

00:52:32diamond bachelor,

00:52:32not something two college kids handle.

00:52:34Shut himself down completely

00:52:36after she died.

00:52:37Vienna,

00:52:37don't play with fire.

00:52:38Isabella steals your boyfriends,

00:52:40so you're going after her uncle?

00:52:44Can't I just like him?

00:52:45You've only met him once.

00:52:47I'd seen him more than that.

00:52:48He'd filled pages

00:52:49of a diary I burned,

00:52:50so no one would ever know.

00:52:51But he got married

00:52:52before I got the chance

00:52:53to grow up.

00:52:53Word got around

00:52:54that Isabella and Dante

00:52:55were fighting.

00:52:55She dragged me shopping,

00:52:56unpaid muscle,

00:52:57then sent me into a pharmacy.

00:52:58For what?

00:52:59That trash Dante?

00:53:01Last night he didn't-

00:53:01I went in.

00:53:02She waited outside.

00:53:03Right at the register,

00:53:04I walked straight into the man

00:53:05I'd been pining over.

00:53:06Salvatore Moretti.

00:53:07Phone in one hand,

00:53:08hangover pills in the other.

00:53:09I tried to hide the box.

00:53:10The cashier had no mercy.

00:53:13Sweetheart,

00:53:14this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

00:53:16You sure?

00:53:19I wanted to die.

00:53:20I paid,

00:53:21grabbed the bag,

00:53:22ran.

00:53:22A few steps out,

00:53:23I turned back to explain.

00:53:26Sir,

00:53:27what I bought was for-

00:53:28So go Salvador!

00:53:30Don't tell anyone.

00:53:30her mother would kill her.

00:53:32Her nails dug into my arm

00:53:33before I could open my mouth.

00:53:34Your classmate?

00:53:35Mm-hmm.

00:53:36Isabella gave me no room

00:53:37to explain.

00:53:38After he left,

00:53:38I rounded on her.

00:53:40Now he thinks that was mine.

00:53:42He'll forget it in a few days.

00:53:43You can't keep dumping

00:53:44your messes on me.

00:53:46Won't you?

00:53:47She looked at me,

00:53:47dead certain.

00:53:48She knew exactly

00:53:49which chain to pull.

00:53:50The blood debt.

00:53:51I didn't speak to her

00:53:51the whole walk home.

00:53:52She got straight on the phone

00:53:53with Dante,

00:53:54threatening,

00:53:54crying.

00:53:55A roommate spotting it

00:53:56on the balcony.

00:53:57That shirt's a new

00:53:58limited release.

00:54:00That shirt costs thousands.

00:54:02You're not planning

00:54:02to return it to my uncle?

00:54:03Isabella eyed me.

00:54:04Every roommate turned to stare.

00:54:06Can you bring it to him?

00:54:07Bring it to him yourself.

00:54:08He's a germaphobe,

00:54:09hates people touching his things.

00:54:11No wonder he'd look so cold.

00:54:12I'd worn his shirt.

00:54:13By the time I reached the estate,

00:54:15the sky had gone dark.

00:54:16I waited at the gate.

00:54:17No one answered.

00:54:18I was about to leave

00:54:18when his car pulled in.

00:54:19He got out,

00:54:20steps unsteady,

00:54:21startled to see me.

00:54:22Something wrong?

00:54:24I came to return your shirt.

00:54:25It's clean,

00:54:26I swear.

00:54:26He looked at me a few seconds.

00:54:28Come up.

00:54:28He went inside,

00:54:29yanked his tie off,

00:54:30headed for the couch.

00:54:31I reached out to steady him.

00:54:32He went rigid at my touch.

00:54:34Second floor,

00:54:34my room,

00:54:35top drawer.

00:54:36Get it yourself.

00:54:37He sank into the couch,

00:54:38eyes closed,

00:54:39before I could ask what he meant.

00:54:40I went up,

00:54:41pulled the drawer open,

00:54:42and froze.

00:54:42A small square box sat inside.

00:54:44Any adult would know

00:54:45exactly what that was.

00:54:47Blood rushed to my head.

00:54:48The humiliation hit its peak.

00:54:50After all these years,

00:54:50he didn't remember me.

00:54:52He thought he could toy with me instead.

00:54:53I grabbed the box

00:54:54and ran back downstairs.

00:54:55Sir,

00:54:56I came to return your shirt,

00:54:57not sell myself.

00:54:59So?

00:55:00He frowned.

00:55:00He stared at the box a long moment,

00:55:02then slowly sat up

00:55:03and pinned me with a look

00:55:04that pressed all the air

00:55:05out of the room.

00:55:06Come with me.

00:55:07He walked back to his room,

00:55:08pulled open the drawer,

00:55:09and took out a different box.

00:55:10Handing it to me,

00:55:11I opened it.

00:55:12A pearl necklace.

00:55:13Mine.

00:55:13Dropped it here the day I changed.

00:55:15You never said which box?

00:55:17I'm a man.

00:55:18Strange for me to keep that in a drawer.

00:55:20Completely normal.

00:55:21Perfectly normal.

00:55:22I was the strange one.

00:55:23He'd already turned

00:55:24to strip his shirt off.

00:55:25I caught his abs in the mirror.

00:55:26Blood rushed to my head,

00:55:27and I froze in place.

00:55:28How long are you gonna stare?

00:55:30I fled,

00:55:31red-faced.

00:55:32Ten minutes later,

00:55:32I came back,

00:55:33drenched.

00:55:35Not done looking?

00:55:36I was meaning to explain

00:55:37the road was blocked.

00:55:38What came out instead?

00:55:38Can I stay here tonight?

00:55:41Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:55:43ends up with my roommate,

00:55:44Isabella,

00:55:44so I went after her uncle.

00:55:45At the family table,

00:55:46she introduced me to him.

00:55:47This is my roommate?

00:55:48Then she wrapped herself

00:55:49around his arm,

00:55:49preening.

00:55:50Some man knocked her up,

00:55:51and she doesn't even know

00:55:52who the father is.

00:55:54Sochio Salvador,

00:55:56why don't you tell her

00:55:56who you really are?

00:55:58Hello.

00:56:00I'm the father of your baby.

00:56:04Every boyfriend I've ever had

00:56:05ends up with my roommate.

00:56:06Vienna, grab me fried chicken,

00:56:08and bring the other thing, too.

00:56:10Now?

00:56:11Dante's staying the night.

00:56:13Don't tell me you forgot.

00:56:14Dante, my ex.

00:56:15He steals your boyfriend,

00:56:16then sends you shopping for him?

00:56:18I owe her a blood debt.

00:56:19You know that.

00:56:21Yes, you owe her.

00:56:22But you've already paid her back

00:56:24with eight boyfriends.

00:56:25It's been ten years.

00:56:26You've repaid that debt

00:56:27a hundred times over.

00:56:28Ten years ago,

00:56:29she fell into the estate lake

00:56:30while we were playing.

00:56:31I didn't notice until

00:56:31she was near death.

00:56:32Her family could have

00:56:33held me responsible.

00:56:34Instead, they let it go

00:56:35and let my mother keep her job.

00:56:36I've been paying it back

00:56:37ever since.

00:56:38At 12.30,

00:56:39I handed Isabella the bag

00:56:40through her half-open door.

00:56:43Was he always this twisted,

00:56:45making me wear this?

00:56:46Ugly men have the wildest tastes.

00:56:48Wrong size, too.

00:56:49They're way too big for him.

00:56:50Have fun.

00:56:51I chased Dante Russo

00:56:52for a year before he noticed me.

00:56:54He only spared me

00:56:55ten seconds to end it.

00:56:56Fine.

00:56:57Don't come crying to me.

00:56:58A week later,

00:56:58he posted a new girlfriend,

00:57:00Isabella.

00:57:00Doesn't it bother you,

00:57:02sharing a man

00:57:02with your best friend?

00:57:04Not at all.

00:57:05One of us takes the day shift,

00:57:06one takes the night.

00:57:07Want to shift yourself sometime?

00:57:09I knew what they said

00:57:09behind my back.

00:57:10She sucks up to Isabella

00:57:11like a dog.

00:57:12She'd even hand her own boyfriend over.

00:57:14All because the Morettis have money.

00:57:15She's gone insane for cash.

00:57:17I just smiled at that.

00:57:18They weren't wrong.

00:57:19I needed money badly.

00:57:21When Isabella's birthday came around,

00:57:22I had to run around like a maid,

00:57:23waiting on everyone

00:57:24while doing my best

00:57:25to stay out of Dante's way.

00:57:26I carried a tray out

00:57:27and found him lounging by the pool.

00:57:28Isabella curled against him

00:57:29while a crowd was glued

00:57:30to their screen games.

00:57:31The moment Dante spotted me,

00:57:32he pushed up his sunglasses,

00:57:34snorted.

00:57:34Vienna,

00:57:35I want mango.

00:57:37I knelt and spirited

00:57:38onto a fork for her.

00:57:41Dante,

00:57:42you've lost 9 out of 10.

00:57:44Maybe he burned

00:57:44all his energy last night.

00:57:46The group howled.

00:57:47Dante rounded on me.

00:57:48Love serving people.

00:57:49No self-respect at all.

00:57:51Isabella rescued me,

00:57:53sweetly.

00:57:53She's my housekeeper's daughter.

00:57:55Fed me since we were kids.

00:57:57Housekeeper's daughter?

00:57:59And she wears designer clothes?

00:58:01We're close.

00:58:01I've given her a bunch

00:58:02of my old things.

00:58:03It's nothing.

00:58:04God,

00:58:04wearing your employer's clothes

00:58:05so much they just hand them over.

00:58:07She's clearly tasted the good life.

00:58:10No wonder she's this loyal.

00:58:12Isabella,

00:58:12you're too kind

00:58:13for your own good.

00:58:15My chest is bigger than yours.

00:58:16I couldn't fit your clothes

00:58:17if I tried.

00:58:20Really?

00:58:21Oh, right.

00:58:22I remember.

00:58:23That designer shirt

00:58:24was a gift from your last ex,

00:58:25wasn't it?

00:58:26How many exes do you have?

00:58:28Get her out of here.

00:58:29She's an eyesore.

00:58:31Vienna,

00:58:31go inside.

00:58:32I turned to leave.

00:58:34A foot shot out.

00:58:34I went straight into the pool.

00:58:36Nobody came to pull me out.

00:58:37I swallowed water twice

00:58:38before I dragged myself up.

00:58:39Soaked and humiliated,

00:58:41Isabella watched me quietly,

00:58:42smiling.

00:58:44Vienna,

00:58:44you can swim,

00:58:45can't you?

00:58:47Remember when we were ten

00:58:48you took me to that lake?

00:58:53Go change upstairs.

00:58:54My uncle's room,

00:58:55he's not home.

00:58:56Wear his clothes.

00:58:57I went up alone,

00:58:58stood in front of the mirror,

00:58:59peeled off the wet clothes,

00:59:00and let myself cry for a moment.

00:59:02I used to be able to swim.

00:59:03Since the day she nearly drowned,

00:59:04water became a nightmare

00:59:05I couldn't shake.

00:59:06I found an oversized shirt

00:59:07in the closet

00:59:08and pulled it on.

00:59:08A pair of man's eyes

00:59:09appeared in the mirror

00:59:10behind me.

00:59:11Salvatore Moretti,

00:59:12Isabella's uncle.

00:59:14I stood in front of the mirror

00:59:15a long while,

00:59:16steadying myself,

00:59:17wiping my eyes,

00:59:18then pulled an oversized shirt

00:59:19from the closet.

00:59:20A pair of man's eyes

00:59:21appeared in the mirror

00:59:22behind me.

00:59:22Someone was in here.

00:59:23Salvatore Moretti,

00:59:24lying on the bed,

00:59:25half asleep,

00:59:26like my crying had woken him.

00:59:28My mind went blank.

00:59:29Had he seen everything?

00:59:30I fixed my earrings,

00:59:31pinned my hair,

00:59:32walked out like nothing happened.

00:59:33My legs gave out

00:59:34the second I hit the hallway.

00:59:35I went back down

00:59:36and helped cut the cake.

00:59:37Halfway through the candles,

00:59:38a man in a perfectly tailored suit

00:59:40appeared on the spiral staircase.

00:59:41Every eye in the room

00:59:42followed him.

00:59:48Zio Salvatore,

00:59:49you're back!

00:59:50Isabella threw herself at him.

00:59:51Old enough for a boyfriend

00:59:53and still throwing yourself at people?

00:59:54Get down.

00:59:56Not unless you give me

00:59:57a birthday present.

00:59:58His eyes swept the crowd,

00:59:59caught on me,

01:00:00held a beat too long.

01:00:05A sports car.

01:00:07Half the room sucked in a breath.

01:00:09Get your license and I'll buy it.

01:00:10I studied him from the crowd.

01:00:11Sharp nose,

01:00:12thin lips,

01:00:13a clean jaw.

01:00:14His eyes found me again.

01:00:15He frowned,

01:00:16just slightly.

01:00:16I used to trail after Isabella

01:00:18just to be near him.

01:00:19He never treated me

01:00:19like the help's daughter.

01:00:20I was obsessed with him

01:00:21and never told a soul.

01:00:22Told myself I'd be brave enough

01:00:24to say it one day.

01:00:25Instead,

01:00:25I got the news of his wedding.

01:00:26Have fun.

01:00:27Need money?

01:00:28Come find me.

01:00:28He was already turning away.

01:00:29The crowd erupted

01:00:30the second he left.

01:00:31I slipped away toward campus.

01:00:35Leaving.

01:00:35Want a ride?

01:00:39No thanks.

01:00:42Halfway up a mountain,

01:00:43where are you catching a cab?

01:00:45Vienna.

01:00:45Didn't you say you wanted

01:00:46to ride with my uncle?

01:00:47I never said that.

01:00:48Across the road,

01:00:49he stood with his back to us,

01:00:50smoking,

01:00:51on a call.

01:00:52I'll take a cab.

01:00:54Zoe Salvador!

01:00:55She dragged me to his car anyway.

01:00:56His eyes landed on me.

01:00:57My heart clenched.

01:00:58Five minutes.

01:00:59He didn't even lower

01:00:59the phone all the way.

01:01:00Dante cursed and floored the gas.

01:01:02Silence the whole ride.

01:01:03Wind hit.

01:01:04I tugged my hem down.

01:01:05Cold?

01:01:06Enzo,

01:01:07heat up.

01:01:08A glance at my legs.

01:01:10Don't dress like that

01:01:11that again.

01:01:11Every trick I had,

01:01:12seen through in a glance.

01:01:13The car turned wrong

01:01:14as we hit campus.

01:01:15I fell straight into his lap.

01:01:17Are you gonna get up?

01:01:20Sorry.

01:01:20I scrambled and my hand

01:01:21landed somewhere it shouldn't.

01:01:22I'd scrambled too fast

01:01:23and I fell again.

01:01:24Are all the girls

01:01:25these days this bold?

01:01:26He caught my wrist

01:01:27and moved me off him

01:01:28like closing a file.

01:01:31I got out,

01:01:32watched the car pull away.

01:01:33He really had forgotten me.

01:01:35Another rich one?

01:01:37You wanna hook him?

01:01:39Isabella's uncle.

01:01:41You wanna hook him?

01:01:44Can you look him up for me?

01:01:4730.

01:01:48Dead wife,

01:01:48diamond bachelor,

01:01:49not something two college kids handle.

01:01:51Shut himself down completely

01:01:52after she died.

01:01:54Vienna,

01:01:54don't play with fire.

01:01:55Isabella steals your boyfriends,

01:01:57so you're going after her uncle?

01:02:00Can I just like him?

01:02:02You've only met him once.

01:02:04I'd seen him more than that.

01:02:05He'd filled pages of a diary I burned,

01:02:07so no one would ever know.

01:02:08But he got married

01:02:09before I got the chance to grow up.

01:02:10Word got around

01:02:11that Isabella and Dante were fighting.

01:02:12She dragged me shopping,

01:02:13unpaid muscle,

01:02:14then sent me into a pharmacy.

01:02:15For what?

01:02:16That trash Dante?

01:02:17Last night he didn't-

01:02:18I went in.

01:02:19She waited outside.

01:02:20Right at the register.

01:02:21I walked straight into the man

01:02:22I'd been pining over.

01:02:23Salvatore Moretti.

01:02:24Phone in one hand,

01:02:25hangover pills in the other.

01:02:26I tried to hide the box.

01:02:27The cashier had no mercy.

01:02:30Sweetheart,

01:02:30this is the 72-hour emergency kind.

01:02:32You sure?

01:02:36I wanted to die.

01:02:37I paid,

01:02:38grabbed the bag,

01:02:39ran.

01:02:39A few steps out,

01:02:40I turned back to explain.

01:02:43Sir,

01:02:44what I bought was for-

01:02:44So go Salvador.

01:02:46Don't tell anyone.

01:02:47Her mother would kill her.

01:02:48Her nails dug into my arm

01:02:50before I could open my mouth.

01:02:51Your classmate?

01:02:52Mm-hmm.

01:02:53Isabella gave me no room to explain.

01:02:55After he left,

01:02:55I rounded on her.

01:02:57Now he thinks that was mine.

01:02:59He'll forget it in a few days.

01:03:00You can't keep dumping your messes on me.

01:03:03Won't you?

01:03:03She looked at me,

01:03:04dead certain.

01:03:05She knew exactly which chain to pull,

01:03:06the blood debt.

01:03:07I didn't speak to her the whole walk home.

01:03:09She got straight on the phone with Dante,

01:03:11threatening,

01:03:11crying.

01:03:12A roommate spotting it on the balcony.

01:03:14That shirt's a new limited release.

01:03:17That shirt costs thousands.

01:03:19You're not planning to return it to my uncle?

01:03:20Isabella eyed me.

01:03:21Every roommate turned to stare.

01:03:22Can you bring it to him?

01:03:24Bring it to him yourself.

01:03:25He's a germaphobe,

01:03:26hates people touching his things.

01:03:28No wonder he'd look so cold.

01:03:29I'd worn his shirt.

01:03:30By the time I reached the estate,

01:03:32the sky had gone dark.

01:03:33I waited at the gate.

01:03:34No one answered.

01:03:34I was about to leave when his car pulled in.

01:03:36He got out,

01:03:37steps unsteady,

01:03:38startled to see me.

01:03:39Something wrong?

01:03:41I came to return your shirt.

01:03:42It's clean,

01:03:43I swear.

01:03:43He looked at me a few seconds.

01:03:44Come up.

01:03:45He went inside,

01:03:46yanked his tie off,

01:03:47headed for the couch.

01:03:48I reached out to steady him.

01:03:49He went rigid at my touch.

01:03:51Second floor,

01:03:51my room,

01:03:52top drawer.

01:03:53Get it yourself.

01:03:54He sank into the couch,

01:03:55eyes closed,

01:03:56before I could ask what he meant.

01:03:57I went up,

01:03:58pulled the drawer open,

01:03:59and froze.

01:03:59A small square box sat inside.

01:04:01Any adult would know exactly what that was.

01:04:04Blood rushed to my head.

01:04:05The humiliation hit its peak.

01:04:07After all these years,

01:04:08he didn't remember me.

01:04:09He thought he could toy with me instead.

01:04:10I grabbed the box and ran back downstairs.

01:04:12Sir,

01:04:12I came to return your shirt,
