Transcript
00:00You know when your life is dreamy and amazing and just perfect?
00:04I'm mopping up ice cream a kid threw up, and someone left teeth in the tip jar.
00:08What do you think?
00:09You're lucky you're used to bad things.
00:11Would you rather be me, having everything and losing it all?
00:16I feel like you want to tell me your story.
00:18How long is this gonna take?
00:20Not that long.
00:21Okay, so it all started 17 years ago, when I arrived in this world as a beautiful baby girl.
00:27Of course you came as a baby girl.
00:29With eyes as blue as cornflowers.
00:32Why are you stating the obvious?
00:34My mother wrapped me up in a cashmere blanket, which was the perfect shade of lavender.
00:38Interestingly, lavender is my favorite color.
00:41That's not interesting.
00:42Come on, get to the part where your life gets bad.
00:45And if you tell me you tripped on a cornflower and broke your lavender shoe...
00:49I really liked that shoe.
00:51And I tripped on a sunflower.
00:53Okay, okay.
00:54I swear, you're gonna love how much worse my life gets.
00:57Do you guys want to hear the long version?
00:59Or the short one?
01:00Fine, the short one then.
01:02My name is Olivia, and before I continue, please like and subscribe.
01:06My dad was the owner of a tech startup.
01:08Don't ask me what the startup is about, I have no idea.
01:11I tried finding out many times, but the conversation always goes something like this.
01:15Daddy, can you tell me more about your tech startup?
01:17Of course, sweetheart.
01:19Basically, we're using cutting-edge algorithms to optimize data.
01:22What a pretty butterfly on that rose.
01:24I need to send my rose pink dress to the dry cleaners.
01:26Our platform synergizes complex neural networks with cloud-based infrastructures.
01:31But I don't have the right shoes with that dress.
01:34Maybe I need new shoes.
01:35Or maybe I need a new dress.
01:37With our blockchain architecture, we're able to establish an ecosystem that...
01:41Daddy has wrinkles on his forehead.
01:42I should give him night cream on his birthday.
01:44In short, we are revolutionizing the industry.
01:47That's amazing, Daddy.
01:49I don't know, man. Your guess is as good as mine.
01:51The important part is that his startup made us very, very rich.
01:55Like, take a private jet to your private island kind of rich.
01:58We lived in a huge mansion where Mom and I had closets as big as rooms and clothes and shoes for days.
02:04My life was a whirlwind of glamorous parties, fancy vacations, and global shopping sprees.
02:10I went to a great private school, had tons of friends who adored me,
02:13and the cherry on top of my sweet life was Dad's friend's son, my dreamboat boyfriend, Chad.
02:19I really had everything.
02:21Then it all went to hell one day when I tripped on a sunflower and broke the heel of my fourth favorite lavender shoe.
02:28Are you kidding me?
02:29It's about to get worse, I promise.
02:31I was meeting Chad in the park. My heel broke, so I had to walk barefoot.
02:35I was crossing the track when this stupid kid on roller skates ran right over my toes.
02:39I screamed and fell back on my butt, and then out of nowhere, a crow started attacking me.
02:44It was the most bizarre day.
02:46By the time I reached our usual spot, I was in a foul mood.
02:49But suddenly, seeing the golden hour light hitting Chad's perfect face, everything else melted away.
02:55I could take all the ups and downs of life with Chad by my side.
02:58I think we should break up, Libby.
03:00Break up what, babe?
03:01Us. We should break up.
03:03I've accepted an offer at a university across the country, and I don't think we can make long-distance work.
03:08I... I don't understand.
03:10Like stars departing at dawn's first light, our destinies ascend separate horizons.
03:15Uh, what?
03:17Our hearts, like birds in migration, must seek divergent skies to find our true selves.
03:23I am so confused right now.
03:25I love you, Libby, but we're too young to tie ourselves down.
03:28It's best to part ways, and if we're meant to be, we'll find each other again.
03:32Then he kissed me on the cheek and just left me there.
03:35Oof, that's rough. The story's finally getting good.
03:39You're such a sadist.
03:40I was depressed for days and just sobbed in bed as I watched MSA love stories.
03:45I always thought Chad and I would be up there one day with our own little video.
03:48I mean, look at me. My face is a dream for any animator to work with.
03:52Anyway, just when I thought the worst thing in my life had already happened,
03:56the police showed up one night and arrested Dad for embezzlement.
04:00He was charged for stealing money from his investors.
04:03And before I knew it, my life really turned upside down.
04:06Most of our assets were seized by the government, and we had to leave our house only with things we could carry.
04:11I managed to put on 14 dresses, 9 shirts, 4 pants, 5 coats, 6 pairs of shoes, and 2 bags.
04:17Mom and I moved into a tiny apartment on the poor side of town, and we got a lawyer.
04:22But it looked like an open-and-shut case with too much evidence against Dad,
04:26and he was sentenced to prison for a decade.
04:28I swear I'm innocent. I've been framed. I need you to believe that I'm not a crook.
04:32Of course we believe you, Daddy. We'll get your name cleared, I promise.
04:36Naturally, my first course of action was reaching out to Dad's friends for help.
04:40You need to leave. I can't be seen with you. My girlfriend is a very suspicious woman.
04:45Aren't you married?
04:46Exactly. I wasn't running away from you. I was just getting some exercise.
04:51Oh look, what an unusual bird.
04:53Where?
04:54I recently hit my head and I have amnesia. I don't know who your dad is or why he made me your godfather.
05:00You're my godfather?
05:01Gotta go. I need to poop.
05:03Chad's father was out of town, and I was so relieved when he returned.
05:07He was Dad's BFF. If anyone would help, he would.
05:10I'm sorry, but sir is still away on business.
05:14His car just passed me as I was walking here.
05:17You must be mistaken. He's not home.
05:19I can literally see him in his study from that window.
05:23Let me put this another way, miss.
05:25He clearly stated that whenever you show up here, I have to say he's not home.
05:31That just made my heart break.
05:33No one wanted anything to do with Dad because they all thought he was a crook.
05:37Next, I turned to my own friends, and I only met more closed doors.
05:41Wow, really Penelope?
05:43Remember the only person who could look you in the face when you went through your hideous acne phase?
05:47And remember whose shoulder you cried on when the plastic surgeon botched your nose job?
05:51And remember who took the blame for your smelly fart when we were hanging out with your crush?
05:55You know it! Me!
05:57Mom had the same luck with everyone she knew.
06:00I soon took up a job in a grocery store and enrolled me in the nearby public school.
06:04I thought I might feel better with the distraction, but I was a fish out of water here.
06:08The kids smirked at my clothes.
06:10They smirked when they asked me if my dad was the rich guy who went to prison.
06:13And they smirked as they walked past me at lunch.
06:16Mom got her first paycheck soon, and she took me out for a manicure to cheer me up.
06:20As I stared down at my perfect lavender nails the next day at school, I felt more positive than I had in weeks.
06:26I wouldn't sit alone at lunch anymore.
06:28I told these kids, and they'd get to know me.
06:30And they'd see how lovable I was, and...
06:32I went flying forward with my food tray and fell flat on my face.
06:37As I got up, feeling hideously embarrassed, I suddenly noticed that two of my nails were chipped.
06:42My perfect nails, not so perfect anymore.
06:45Who is the idiotic pea-brained buffoon who crashed into me?
06:50Oh, come on. We were just playing ball.
06:52In the cafeteria?
06:54Did the football field catch fire?
06:56Did an earthquake split it open?
06:58Did a tsunami wash it away?
07:00Hey, calm down, weirdo. What's the matter with you?
07:03You wanna know what's the matter with me?
07:05I had a perfect life.
07:06I had the perfect parents, and the perfect friends, and the perfect house, and the perfect boyfriend.
07:11And if my name wasn't Olivia, it would have been perfection.
07:14But then, it all started blowing up the day I tripped on a sunblower and broke my lavender shoe.
07:20Now I'm here, in this stupid school, looking like some hobo with chipped nails!
07:26I jumped onto that boy and started pulling his hair and pinching his nose and twisting his ears.
07:31It took several people to get me off of him.
07:33And then, I started crying uncontrollably.
07:36I could barely breathe.
07:37I think she's having a panic attack.
07:39Give her some space, guys.
07:40Hey, Olivia, look at me. You're gonna be okay.
07:42Just breathe.
07:44So, yeah, I lost my mind.
07:46You helped me calm down and brought me to your workplace.
07:49I had to.
07:50You were in shock and clinging to my arm like a python.
07:53And now you know my whole story.
07:55You're probably thinking, look at this whiny rich girl who lost some money and can't handle it.
08:00But it's not just that.
08:01I never realized before that my entire life was so fragile.
08:05I just never saw this coming.
08:07Jackson reached over and put his hand on mine.
08:09I wasn't thinking that.
08:10You've been through a lot, and I'm sorry.
08:12Thanks.
08:13By the way, how tall are you?
08:15Six feet, four inches.
08:17No wonder I've been feeling so tiny all day.
08:19My life still sucked.
08:21But it sucked a little less now that I had a friend.
08:23Jackson was so different from any of the guys I'd known.
08:26He didn't talk about sports cars or the newest smartphones or the best companies to invest in.
08:31But he taught me how I could cut out grocery coupons from newspapers,
08:34what the cheapest bus route was, and how to ride a bicycle.
08:38He even got me a waitressing job at the cafe and covered up for my mistakes.
08:42He lived in a tiny, run-down house with his mom and three younger sisters.
08:46Even though they didn't have much, I was always made to feel welcome.
08:49One day at the park, while Jackson was feeding the ducks with his sisters,
08:52I accidentally knocked over his backpack and a sketchbook fell out.
08:55I opened it to find the most amazing comic drawings.
08:58I leafed through the pages and found a sketch of me.
09:01And then another. And then another.
09:03What do you think you're doing?
09:05I'm sorry. It just fell out.
09:06Jackson, you're so talented.
09:08It's just a silly hobby.
09:10It's not silly. Are you going to apply to an art school?
09:13In case you haven't noticed, I'm poor.
09:15I have to work right out of high school.
09:17But you're too good to not take this seriously. You have to...
09:20Can we please not talk about this?
09:22Okay.
09:23And I didn't make your sketches because I have a crush on you or something.
09:26You're just a new, interesting face.
09:28Does interesting mean the same as pretty?
09:30Not necessarily.
09:32So you don't think I'm pretty?
09:34You're not not pretty. And what is pretty, anyway?
09:36There's no set standard.
09:38Shut up, Jackson. You said Olivia's the prettiest girl you've ever met.
09:42No, I didn't. I said Bolivia has the prettiest girls.
09:45That I've never met.
09:47He wrote a poem in his diary about your eyes being blue as cornflowers.
09:51And what was the next line, girls?
09:53I could stare into those sapphire lakes for hours.
09:59My diary? You...
10:01See what I mean?
10:03I need to earn money to put them all in a mental institution.
10:06I couldn't stop laughing as he chased the girls away.
10:09And I felt a warm tingle in my toes at the thought that maybe Jackson liked me.
10:14A few weeks later, we were sitting in the cafeteria when I got an email alert on my phone.
10:18And Jackson noticed my face fall.
10:20What's wrong?
10:22Oh, it's just that witch Penelope.
10:24She's hosting her grand annual Halloween party.
10:27And I guess she just forgot to take me off the invite list.
10:29Forget I mentioned it.
10:31Okay, then.
10:32So my mom's making her famous shepherd's pie this weekend.
10:35And she thinks I don't know what the secret ingredient is.
10:37I think I want to go to the party.
10:39What? Why?
10:40Because I, well...
10:41I want revenge.
10:43Penelope and all these people hurt me and I want to hurt them back.
10:46What would you even do?
10:47I don't have it all planned out.
10:49But I want to ruin her stupid party because it means a lot to her and her stupid friends.
10:53And you should come with me.
10:55No. And you shouldn't go either.
10:57You'll get in trouble.
10:58It's Halloween. We'll be in costumes.
11:00No one will recognize us.
11:01And we won't be there for too long.
11:03And Penelope will have the best food.
11:05I'm certain she's stolen my caterer.
11:07I don't know.
11:08Please. I need this. And I don't want to go alone.
11:11Alright. The food better be good.
11:13On the night of Penelope's Halloween party, Jackson and I took the bus to the rich part of town.
11:18And walked the last few blocks to Penelope's house.
11:20No one's gonna recognize me, right?
11:22You're dressed like an evil eggplant. It's very unlikely.
11:25You look good as a tree. Very tall and leafy.
11:28Now you remember the plan, right?
11:29Right. Make as many things go wrong as possible.
11:32Am I forgetting anything?
11:33Nope. That's the whole plan.
11:34Let's go.
11:35Penelope's place was swarming with guests.
11:37And no one paid much attention to us as we slipped in.
11:39And we got down to our mission right away.
11:41We sneaked off all the black and gold balloons and made them fly away.
11:45We messed up the fake cobwebs and smashed some carved pumpkins.
11:48We locked up the kitchen doors and we threw the keys in the swimming pool.
11:52Where did all the balloons go?
11:54I ordered 500 of them.
11:56People, watch where you're going.
11:57You're smashing the pumpkins and walking into the cobwebs.
12:00And where are all the waiters?
12:02Why is there no food?
12:04As Penelope stormed off towards the kitchen, Jackson and I high-fived.
12:08Should we go now?
12:09Oh, no. This was just a warm-up.
12:11Penelope always has a surprise celebrity singer perform at her Halloween parties.
12:15And I know this time it's Harry Styles.
12:17We have to wreck his concert. It'll drive her crazy.
12:20No. That's going too far. Someone will catch us.
12:23Can you stop being such a scaredy-cat? Just tell me if you're in or out.
12:26Olivia, I think I'm out.
12:28And then he actually left. Fine. I'd finish the job myself.
12:31I ran off to the back of the house where I knew all the power supply boards would be.
12:36I spotted a toolbox nearby, picked up a plier, and started snipping away at every wire.
12:41I wouldn't let this concert happen. I'd ruin the whole party.
12:44Everyone would remember it as the worst Halloween ever.
12:47Just then, I saw a figure emerge from the shadows.
12:50Hey, what do you think you're doing?
12:52I flung the pliers to one side and started running for my life across the garden.
12:56But my stupid eggplant costume was slowing me down.
12:59And suddenly, I found myself being pushed forward and pinned to the ground.
13:03When the person chasing me turned me over, I saw that it was… Chad?
13:07How do you know my… Oh my god, Livvy, is that you?
13:10Why are you an eggplant, actually? What are you doing here?
13:13I could ask you the same question.
13:15My whole life blew up and you couldn't send a text?
13:18But you made sure you didn't miss Penelope's party?
13:21Listen.
13:22Just then, a pretty girl I'd never seen before came running behind us.
13:26Babe, are you okay? Who's this creep? I'll call security.
13:30No, don't. There's been a misunderstanding.
13:32Babe? Is that what she just called you?
13:35Who are you? And why are you dressed up like an eggplant?
13:39Because baba ganoush is my favorite dip. Not that it's any of your business.
13:42I pushed Chad away and stormed off, tears pouring down my face.
13:46I just made it a few blocks down when I ran into a tree.
13:50I'm so sorry. I shouldn't have left you behind.
13:52I came back. Now let's go destroy Penelope.
13:54No, I'm done. Coming here was a stupid idea. Let's just go home, Jackson.
13:59I felt more crushed and betrayed than ever.
14:02I was busy sulking in bed the next day when mom called me saying I had a visitor.
14:06I walked out into the lounge to see it was Chad.
14:09Mom? Why did you let him in?
14:11You should hear him out, honey.
14:12Mom left the room and Chad hesitantly sat down next to me.
14:16Is it okay if I sit here?
14:17You're already sitting here. And no, none of this is okay.
14:21In fact, this is giving me a fuzzy flashback to when you were sitting down next to me on a park bench.
14:27Wait, wait. It's all coming back to me now.
14:29Yes, there I am with my bleeding toes and broken shoe.
14:32And yep, that's you, walking away after breaking my heart.
14:36You have every right to be mad. I was such a fool, Livvy.
14:39I thought I was doing the right thing.
14:41Long-distance relationships are so hard. I just panicked.
14:44I know what I did was awful, but I swear I never stopped thinking about you.
14:48Just long enough to meet that blonde twig who called you babe?
14:51She was just my date for yesterday.
14:53I don't care about your love life, but what I'm really angry about is...
14:57I know, your dad. I wanted to reach out to you, but my dad forbade it.
15:00He's one of the investors in your dad's company. He feels betrayed by what your father did.
15:05Dad is innocent, okay? I expected his friends to believe that.
15:09The evidence against him is too strong. You've gotta face facts.
15:12He committed a crime, but I'm sorry you're also paying the price.
15:15I asked around about you after we met yesterday, and I couldn't believe you're living in this neighborhood now.
15:20For the first time, the thought crossed my mind that maybe dad was the one who was wrong.
15:25And I burst into tears. Chad hugged me.
15:28I'm in town for a few weeks, and I'm gonna try to get dad and the other investors to go easier on your dad with his prison sentence.
15:34You'll really try?
15:35I can't promise anything, but I'll try my best, Livvy.
15:38I walked Chad out of the apartment building, and as I was going back in, Jackson suddenly popped up.
15:44So, who was that guy with enough gel in his hair to set all the cheesecakes in America?
15:49That was Chad.
15:50Chad? Like your ex-boyfriend Chad? Like the guy who broke up with you on a park bench, Chad?
15:55Yes, that Chad!
15:57That's such a stupid name. Chad is a country.
16:00Isn't Jackson a city?
16:02Not the same thing. What was Chad doing here?
16:04Offering to help me.
16:05Why would you trust him?
16:07Because he's the only shot I've got at helping dad.
16:10Chad started turning up almost every day.
16:13And even though I hadn't forgiven him for the way he'd broken up with me, I could see he really regretted it.
16:18He was extra attentive.
16:20He seemed to remember all my favorite pastries and perfumes and never came without a gift.
16:25And when he'd take me for drives around the city, I almost felt like my old self again.
16:30One afternoon as I was leaving school, Jackson caught up with me.
16:33Wanna go to the park today?
16:35Nah, I'm tired.
16:37How about you come to my place tomorrow? My annoying sisters miss you.
16:40I have a thing.
16:41A Chad thing, right? Look, it's none of my business, except as your friend, I would advise you not to date Chad again.
16:47We're not dating. We're just meeting up to discuss dad's case.
16:51And what's the progress on that?
16:53He's working on it.
16:54Okay then. Enjoy your thing tomorrow.
16:57Don't do those dumb air quotes. It's not a date.
17:00Why don't you come with me? We're just going to an art exhibition and then having dinner.
17:04Sounds like a date.
17:05It's not a date, you giraffe. Join us. Chad won't mind.
17:09Chad didn't look too happy either, and I could see the way he looked Jackson up and down disapprovingly.
17:14But things got worse in the art gallery.
17:16Wow, what a stunning piece of art.
17:19Holy mother of noodles, that's for $50,000?
17:23It's a picture of a rotting apple.
17:25It shows the complexities and slow ruin of postmodern society.
17:29Dude, it's an ugly apple.
17:31I could draw this with my left foot in my sleep.
17:33I didn't expect you to know anything about art, but you're even more—
17:36Chad, he's an artist too, and he's your guest, so be nice, okay?
17:41I thought I'd managed the situation, but it got worse over dinner.
17:45Chad had just raised his glass and was about to say something when Jackson exclaimed,
17:49Oh no, grandma ran away from my aunt's house.
17:52She climbed out of a third-story window and fell.
17:54Oh my god, is she okay?
17:56My sister is just updating me.
17:58Yeah, she survived the fall, but then she went out to the lake on a paddle boat and fell in the water.
18:03What? Did she drown?
18:05Okay, no. Apparently, she's a very good swimmer.
18:08But then she went to a diner and choked on her food.
18:11Is she still alive?
18:13Thankfully, yes. Someone in the diner performed the Heimlich maneuver on her,
18:17but she's in the hospital for a mild concussion.
18:19Can we leave early so I can see her?
18:21Of course. You can leave now. I'll call you an Uber.
18:24I can stay for the main course. We'll skip dessert.
18:27Anyway, before I was interrupted, I was about to make a toast to us, Livy.
18:31Friendship, much like the delicate petals of a rare flower,
18:35unfurls its beauty only to those who possess the refined senses
18:39to savor its exquisite fragrance amidst the mundane garden of existence.
18:44That's lovely.
18:46Uh, I'm sorry. What does that even mean?
18:48Excuse me? Why do you think it's cool to say vague nonsense?
18:52Friends don't treat friends the way you've treated Olivia in the past.
18:56Can't you be honest about anything?
18:58Why don't you start with her and tell her you don't actually have any plans to help her?
19:02You want honesty? I think you're a worthless piece of trash.
19:06Before I knew it, Chad had attacked Jackson,
19:09and they were in a full-scale fight, bumping into waiters and falling onto tables.
19:13Several people managed to pull them apart, and I dragged Jackson outside.
19:17What were you thinking?
19:19He attacked me.
19:20You provoked him!
19:22Look, Olivia, I don't get mad a lot.
19:24It's scary for people when I get mad because I look like a tall, angry windmill.
19:28So I keep it in and stay calm mostly.
19:30But I'm mad right now.
19:32How can you even stand that pretentious windbag?
19:35Because he belongs to my world.
19:38This is the life I had before.
19:40You go to stupid exhibitions and talk about trivial things over food
19:43and laugh at dumb jokes.
19:45And you didn't even give him a chance.
19:47You were determined to hate him just because he's a rich guy.
19:50Is that what you really think of me?
19:52You know what? I'm the problem here.
19:54I don't belong in your world.
19:56Jackson walked off, and my heart sank.
19:58He wouldn't even reply to any of my texts or calls later,
20:01and he avoided me in school entirely.
20:03A few days later, Chad asked me to come over to his place to have a talk with his dad,
20:07and I arrived early.
20:09As I walked towards the study, I suddenly heard raised voices,
20:12and I stopped outside.
20:14That girl is really coming here right now?
20:16Chad, what is the matter with you?
20:18Look, Dad, when you told me that you and the other investors
20:21were making a fake case against her father to get control of his company,
20:24I was totally on board, and I broke up with Livy and left
20:27because you didn't want me to be associated with her after her dad got a bad reputation.
20:32But I didn't realize Livy and her mom would have everything taken away from them.
20:36What else did you think was gonna happen, son?
20:38I don't know. I just thought that Dad would go to jail and we'd be richer.
20:42It's not fair. She lives in a dump now.
20:44And how are they supposed to afford shampoo and makeup and all the creams and serums they use?
20:49Just lie to her and say you're working on getting her dad out of jail sooner
20:52so she feels better, and maybe we can give her some money every month.
20:56Fine. My son is such a philanthropist.
20:59Don't get serious about her again, though.
21:01Dad, I'm 18. I'm not serious about anyone.
21:03I'm leaving in two weeks anyway.
21:05I've just been nice to her because she was never very tough, and I feel sorry for her.
21:09I stepped away quietly, blood pounding in my head.
21:12I felt fury beyond anything I'd ever felt in my life.
21:16I texted Chad that I couldn't come over, and I went home and told Mom everything.
21:21We stayed up half the night trying to think about how we could get proof of Dad's innocence.
21:25We finally fell asleep exhausted, but the next morning I woke up to Mom's screams.
21:30I rushed to the lounge and saw the TV on with the news that Chad's father
21:34and all the other investors in Dad's business had been arrested.
21:38How? What are they being arrested for?
21:41They're saying on the news that some anonymous employee in the company had approached the FBI some time ago
21:46claiming that Chad's father and the other investors framed your dad
21:50and are still involved in other illegal activities.
21:53So the FBI had bugged the investors' houses and offices.
21:56I guess they overheard the conversation between Chad and his father that you heard yesterday, too.
22:01Dad's lawyer called. He's going to be released tomorrow.
22:04Later, I went to Chad's place as it was being sealed by the FBI officers.
22:08Livvy, it's not what you think.
22:10No, only I will talk now.
22:12I heard the entire conversation between you and your dad yesterday with my own ears,
22:17and I just came to say I hate you.
22:19I despise you with a burning rage of a thousand suns.
22:23I loathe you with the force of a hundred typhoons.
22:26I wish only bad things to happen to you, and my wish is coming true as we speak.
22:31You will lose everything, and you're not even half as tough as me.
22:35You will really suffer, and I will dance with joy knowing that.
22:39Then I punched his perfect nose and stormed off.
22:42Well, actually, I skipped off happily and headed straight for the cafe.
22:46I spotted Jackson taking someone's order and ran to him.
22:49Jackson, my dad's innocent, and he's getting out of jail tomorrow.
22:53Chad's father framed him, and he's been arrested.
22:55I punched Chad. I'm going to get my life back.
22:58I'm working right now. My shift ends in a while.
23:01I can't wait, okay?
23:02I can't stand that you're not talking to me, and I know that it's my own fault.
23:06I'm sorry I said you were jealous of Chad because he's rich.
23:09You were right about everything.
23:11He's an obnoxious jerk, and that apple painting was so ugly.
23:15Also, if there's anything I've learned, it's that I don't want all of my old life back.
23:20I don't want to have fake conversations or fake friends who turn away at the lowest point of your life.
23:25I want people like you.
23:27You literally saved me, and I love you for that.
23:30Also, you're very tall, which is hotter than you know.
23:34Jackson just stared back at me, and then suddenly his sisters burst in with a huge bunch of lavender balloons,
23:40a congratulations banner, and a cake.
23:42Are we late? Do you know how hard it is to find lavender balloons?
23:46I dropped a cake on the way. We can scrape off some of the icing.
23:50I told you girls, we're meeting at Olivia's place, not here.
23:53We heard the news about your dad, and we were coming over after my shift.
23:57Even though you were mad at me?
23:59I can't stay mad at you. Look, just let me take this customer's order.
24:02Just kiss her, you moron.
24:04Hey, don't call him a moron. But seriously, just kiss me, dummy.
24:11Wait, wait. How's your grandma doing?
24:13You want to talk about my grandma right now?
24:15Actually, I don't have one. I made up that whole thing to annoy Chad.
24:19I like you even more right now.
24:26I love you.
