00:00Hi everyone, I'm Hayden from California.
00:02Before I continue, please hit like and subscribe.
00:05I was born into a big, happy family.
00:07And growing up with four spunky older brothers was always a blast.
00:11And we ran into a lot of trouble.
00:13Like when we kicked the ball into our neighbor's window.
00:16And another time when we all fell into the pond
00:18and mom thought slime monsters were invading the house.
00:21Yeah, we were all grounded.
00:22Except for my younger sister, Rose.
00:24The only odd one out who never joined us
00:27and only cared about her looks and her clothes.
00:29Ugh, Hayden, I can't believe you dress like that.
00:32Why can't you wear a proper dress?
00:34I can't believe you like those clothes.
00:36Look at this t-shirt.
00:37It's large so I can get underarm ventilation.
00:39And I can stuff my face without fearing my waist.
00:42And these pants, they have pockets.
00:45Here, want to see the frog I found?
00:47Well, my brothers became super boring after they started high school.
00:51They got girlfriends and hobbies.
00:53Ugh, it's not like I need them to have fun.
00:55I can find my own friends.
00:57One day when I was on my way home from school,
00:59I spotted some meanies hassling a puppy.
01:01Not under my watch.
01:03I grabbed a stick and rushed over to them screaming.
01:05But then I tripped on a stone and fell.
01:07They all started laughing at me.
01:09But I got back on my feet.
01:10Let that puppy go.
01:12Or what?
01:12You'll fall on your face again?
01:14Or I'll teach you a lesson.
01:16We're shaking in our boots.
01:18An army of ants is coming our way.
01:21That boy was my new neighbor who was the same age as me,
01:24but half their size.
01:25And then the puppy bit the bully's hand
01:27and the new boy rushed in and snatched the puppy away.
01:30He grabbed my arm and we started running until we got away.
01:34Whoa, that was brave.
01:36I'm Rashid.
01:37And you got there just in time.
01:40I'm Hayden.
01:40He adopted the puppy and from that day on,
01:43Rashid and I became best friends.
01:45And everyone called us the terrible duo.
01:47But things changed the summer before high school
01:50when Rashid decided to visit his grandparents in India.
01:52Can't you stay home?
01:54Aw, I'll text you every day
01:55and then we'll be in the same class this year.
01:57Finally, we can sit together.
01:59Without him, I was so bored
02:00that I even tried spending time with Rose.
02:03She pulled me out for shopping or a salon,
02:05which I never liked.
02:07She even dragged me to her ballet class.
02:09Ugh, all that pink tulle and that boring music.
02:12I was starving.
02:13So I searched for a vending machine
02:15and almost crashed into a girl doing a backflip.
02:18I peed into the classroom and everyone was doing backflips
02:21and handstands and the splits.
02:23They looked free, strong, and flexible.
02:26I wanted to be one of them.
02:28And that was my true calling.
02:30I caved in and trained every day.
02:32And by the end of the summer,
02:33I had already won three trophies at local competitions.
02:37I couldn't wait to show them to Rashid.
02:39On the first day of high school,
02:40I got in early to save us the best seats.
02:42But when I got in, someone was already there.
02:45Hey, can you?
02:46The guy looked at me, smiled and-
02:47Hey, Hayden, I missed you.
02:49OMG, Rashid?
02:51Wow, I almost didn't recognize you.
02:53He looks tall and the glasses are gone.
02:56And wow, he's so...
02:57No, he's the same guy as before.
03:00Don't act all weird around him now.
03:02Every time Rashid looked at me, I felt myself blushing.
03:05And if we bumped into each other,
03:06my insides turned into a giant knot.
03:09I needed bug spray to kill all the butterflies
03:11flying around me.
03:12And I felt so jealous when I saw all those girls
03:15falling for him and fighting for his attention.
03:17Though he dodged the swooning
03:18like a ninja dodging throwing stars.
03:21Ugh, I don't know what to do.
03:22What if he decides to date one of those girls?
03:25Try to give him some hints and see if he likes you back.
03:27So I decided to put Rashid to the test.
03:29I left my lunch at home and he shared his with me.
03:33But then he did the same for my classmate the next day.
03:36And when it started raining,
03:37he also shared his umbrella with me and my sister.
03:40Why does he have to be so nice to everyone?
03:42Ooh, I smell heart trouble.
03:45My sister has a crush on her best friend.
03:47How predictable.
03:48Unfortunately, he likes girly girls.
03:50Girls like me.
03:51He sees you as one of his buddies.
03:52I was crushed.
03:54Not only did he not like me romantically,
03:56I wasn't even part of the competition.
03:58I liked the person in the mirror.
04:00I liked that I was strong enough to walk on my hands
04:03or that I could sleep more in the morning
04:04because I wore no makeup.
04:06And then I decided that if Rashid liked those girls,
04:09I could be one.
04:10And like Cinderella,
04:11I just needed a fairy godmother
04:13to help me with the transformation.
04:14Or rather, will you give me a makeover, sis?
04:17OMG, I thought you'd never ask.
04:19I would love to.
04:21And you need to learn that Puma and Adidas
04:23are not the same brand.
04:24Well, leave it to me.
04:26I'll take care of your closet.
04:27Suddenly, Rose turned into a whirlwind.
04:30She plopped me in front of the mirror,
04:32pulled out brushes and paint,
04:33stuffed me into tight clothes,
04:35and gave me the highest heels to wear.
04:37Are you sure about these?
04:39Maybe I can still wear my sneakers.
04:41Do you want to catch a boy or not?
04:43I was shocked.
04:44Was that even me?
04:45Rose had certainly transformed me,
04:47but I wasn't sure it was for the better.
04:49It's okay, Hayden.
04:50Think of this as an undercover mission.
04:52I thought being a girly girl would be a breeze.
04:55Boy, was I wrong.
04:56I had to do this awkward, clumsy walk
04:58because of that dress.
04:59And of course, I missed the bus
05:01and got to school late.
05:02As if that wasn't bad enough,
05:04when I walked into the class,
05:05my dress tangled on my feet
05:07and I stumbled.
05:08But thankfully, Rasheed was there.
05:10Oh, Hayden.
05:11You look...
05:12Magnificent?
05:12Majestic?
05:13Breathtaking?
05:14You've got lipstick on your teeth.
05:16I didn't know you were into makeup.
05:17Ah, I...
05:18Well, you know.
05:19Of course I'm into makeup.
05:21I'm a girl, no?
05:22Okay, let me help you with that backpack.
05:24It worked.
05:25Rasheed had never offered
05:27to carry my books before,
05:28but every day,
05:29I got into a new accident.
05:31Once I sneezed while putting on mascara
05:33and I drew a line all across my face.
05:36Another time,
05:36I found a fake nail in my lunch
05:38and almost swallowed it.
05:40No matter what I did,
05:41it felt like we were growing distant.
05:43Rasheed was treating me more like a girly girl
05:45and less like a friend.
05:47No more games of basketball
05:48or all-you-can-eat buffet lunches on Saturdays.
05:51But I'm still the same person.
05:53I can stuff my face
05:54even if I wear a tight shirt, right?
05:55Luckily, I still had my gymnastics practice,
05:58where I could burn out my frustration.
06:00I trained so hard
06:01that I was ready for the regional competition
06:04by the end of the year.
06:05Congratulations!
06:06I'll come and cheer you on.
06:07Perfect.
06:08I'll tell him about my feelings there.
06:09With Rasheed cheering me on from the stands,
06:11I felt like I could do anything.
06:13And soon enough,
06:14I won first place!
06:16It was such an exciting moment.
06:17Even a scout stopped to watch.
06:19I run a prestigious academy for stunt actors.
06:22You've got the looks and you've got the moves.
06:24If you want to make it in Hollywood,
06:25give me a call.
06:26It's never too early to start.
06:27I wanted to run to Rasheed to talk,
06:29but I was a disgusting sweat fountain.
06:31Plus, I needed the time to rehearse the speech
06:34I had prepared with the help of Rose for him,
06:36so I snuck into the storage room.
06:38Hey, I know we started as friends,
06:40but since last summer,
06:41I started to like you, you know?
06:43I won today because you're here.
06:45Brian!
06:46OMG, you scared me!
06:47Brian was one of my teammates
06:49just a couple of years older than me.
06:51Ah, sorry.
06:52I just needed to put these away.
06:53Sure, I was leaving anyway.
06:55Oh gosh, what if he heard?
06:57This is so embarrassing.
06:58Brian had said nothing,
07:00so I hurried to get changed
07:01and do my makeup perfectly.
07:03Wow, look at you.
07:04You're really girly now.
07:06Just Rasheed's type, right?
07:08But when I came out of the changing room,
07:10Rasheed wasn't there.
07:11I texted him and he replied coldly.
07:13Sorry, something came up.
07:15I couldn't wait.
07:15That's disappointing.
07:16Hey, do you need a ride home?
07:18I turned.
07:18Brian was waving at me,
07:20and for the first time,
07:21I noticed how cute he was.
07:23He was leaning against a nice sports car.
07:25I could wait for the bus,
07:27but I was sad and I didn't want to go home alone.
07:30Well, thank you.
07:30We spent the ride home talking about gymnastics
07:33and by the end of the trip,
07:34Brian had asked for my number.
07:36I like this new style, by the way.
07:37You'll look even better with long hair.
07:39Ugh, long hair is such a chore,
07:41but I guess that's what guys like.
07:43From that day on,
07:44Brian started texting me
07:45and soon he asked me out on a date.
07:47I still liked Rasheed best,
07:49but he had barely spoken to me
07:51since the gymnastics competition.
07:52It was clear he wasn't interested.
07:54I might as well go out with someone who appreciates me.
07:57Brian had booked a super fancy restaurant.
08:00I wore my high heels
08:01and I even borrowed a wig from Rose
08:03to complete the look.
08:04When I walked into the room,
08:05I felt everyone looking at me with awe.
08:07You look stunning.
08:09All the boys here are jealous that you're my date.
08:11Wow, this is what being a girly girl looks like?
08:14Everyone is always staring at you?
08:16Brian was impressed
08:18and we started chatting about ourselves.
08:19Brian already had his life figured out.
08:21He would work for his father's company.
08:23And what about you?
08:24I don't know.
08:25I might consider this stunt acting gig.
08:27I'd get to kick butt for a living.
08:28Aren't those film stunts too dangerous for a girl?
08:31What?
08:32How could you say?
08:33Just then, the fire alarm rang
08:35and a fire started erupting from the kitchen.
08:37Everyone started running toward the exit,
08:39but I heard a cry and turned around.
08:41An old lady had fallen
08:43and nobody had noticed.
08:44But with my high heels and tight skirt,
08:46I couldn't run.
08:47So I took off the shoes and ripped the dress
08:49and rushed to help the lady up.
08:51We made it out just in time
08:52and nobody was hurt.
08:54I can't believe you rushed back like that.
08:55Thank God you made it out,
08:56but you look like a proper fright.
08:58Well, I wouldn't have had to rip my clothes
09:00if I wore my old T-shirt and sneakers.
09:02Of course, I look a fright.
09:04I just ran into a building on fire.
09:06Oh, wait.
09:07Please don't sit in the car.
09:09You see that ash on you?
09:10Let me call you a cab.
09:11You know what?
09:12I'll get it myself.
09:13We're done.
09:14But you like me.
09:15That letter.
09:16That wasn't for you, jerk.
09:18And you know what?
09:18You were my biggest mistake.
09:20I left and with the fire,
09:22all the cabs were stuck in traffic.
09:24So I decided to walk home
09:26and after a short while,
09:27it started to rain.
09:28I was miserable, dirty and wearing no shoes.
09:31So when I saw the diner
09:32where Rashid and I always went,
09:34I walked in to wait out the rain.
09:35But as I stepped in, I froze.
09:37Rashid was there with his friends.
09:39Hayden, what happened?
09:40Are you okay?
09:41I'm fine.
09:42Just a bit.
09:43Well, I was going home,
09:44but I couldn't get a cab.
09:45I'll take you.
09:46But I'm all dirty.
09:47What about your car?
09:48He didn't care about his car
09:50and he drove me home.
09:51Around him, my heart fluttered.
09:53My feelings for him rushed back
09:55like they'd never gone
09:56and I couldn't hold it in anymore.
09:58Hey, so that day at the competition,
10:00I wanted to tell you that since last summer,
10:03I started to like you.
10:04Wow, you really have changed.
10:06I didn't think you were the type of girl
10:08who jumps from one boy to the next.
10:10What? You mean Brian?
10:11I only went out with him
10:12because you kept ignoring me.
10:14You're the one I've liked for a long time.
10:16Sure.
10:17Well, I don't.
10:18Bye, Hayden.
10:18Rashid drove away
10:19and I felt devastated and humiliated.
10:22When I walked in, I saw Rose.
10:24I hugged her and told her everything.
10:26I'm sorry.
10:27I feel like this is partially my fault.
10:29I actually don't know
10:30what kind of girl Rashid likes,
10:31but I lied so we could spend more time together
10:34and share everything like sisters do.
10:36You're the only sister I have,
10:38but you were always hanging out with our brothers.
10:40I was stunned that my sister lied to me,
10:42but I understand her.
10:44It wasn't all her fault.
10:45That same night,
10:46I called the stunt academy director.
10:47I'd like to accept your offer,
10:49but I want to move in immediately.
10:50Rashid texted me after I started going to the academy,
10:53but I ignored him and even blocked him.
10:56One rejection is enough, thank you.
10:57The classes at the academy were intense.
11:00I was learning the most amazing moves
11:02and killing it as a stunt girl on big sets.
11:05Who needed Rashid
11:06when I had my passion and talent to keep me going?
11:09I also abandoned the heels and skirt
11:11and went back to my style.
11:12No one cares what you wear
11:14if you can jump from a moving helicopter.
11:16Years later, I was at the premiere of my latest film
11:18when I saw Rashid as one of the waiters.
11:20He was even more handsome than before.
11:22Forget him.
11:23He rejected you.
11:24You're not even friends anymore.
11:26But everywhere I turned, he was there.
11:28And finally, he cornered me at the buffet table.
11:30What are you doing here?
11:32And when did you become a waiter?
11:33I tried to get into your premiere,
11:35but all the tickets were sold out.
11:36So I sent flowers, but you weren't interested.
11:38So I had to dress up as a waiter and sneak in.
11:41Whatever.
11:41Hayden, please stop running.
11:43Talk to me.
11:44At least let me explain.
11:45You were very clear the first time.
11:47Look, when we were at the competition,
11:49I overheard your confession and I saw Brian.
11:51So I thought it was for him.
11:53When you confessed to me,
11:54it kind of made me feel like I was your backup plan.
11:57It made me pretty mad because I had a crush on you.
12:00And later, I got to know the truth from Brian
12:02and I felt too guilty.
12:04I tried to reach you, but you blocked me.
12:06Wait, you had a crush?
12:07Yeah, since we met.
12:08After you started dressing more girly,
12:10I got really confused because I liked you the way you were.
12:13So I didn't need to change for you?
12:16Absolutely not.
12:17You were perfect and I never stopped liking you.
12:19I couldn't believe it.
12:20All these years, I could have been with Rashid
12:23and it was all because of a stupid misunderstanding.
12:26Well, it was clear now what I needed to do.
12:28I spun on my heels and perfectly landed into Rashid's arms
12:32in the perfect position to kiss him.
12:33I never stopped liking you either.
12:35Let's get the camera rolling.
