00:00Hi, I'm Haley better known as Haley or princess Haley the poetess turned supermodel
00:05I don't think they know of course they do everyone knows me. We'll get to that later first
00:12I can subscribe to MSA because I have a crazy story to tell you my great-great-great great grandfather's sister was married to the Duke
00:20Of Scotland so that made us partially royal dad got a big chunk of land and inheritance
00:24But he sold that and moved to New York to work as a designer where he met my mom
00:29They got married and had me but when I was 10 mom decided to turn into a spiritual yogi
00:35Truth is a myth happiness is a myth life is a myth
00:39The only thing true is today and today will be tomorrow and tomorrow the day after what is she saying dad?
00:45I wish I knew mom went bonkers left for the Himalayas and never came back dad was sad for a while
00:52But then he threw himself into his work and started his own fashion line and as for me
00:58I fell in love with poetry
01:00Roses are red
01:01Violets are blue a face like yours belongs in a zoo
01:05Hold up violets are not blue violets are just well
01:11Violets I don't know who made this dumb poem. It's poetry. Okay. It doesn't always have to make sense
01:18Yeah, so I loved poetry and spent hours in my room reading and writing stuff from scratch
01:24I dreamt of publishing my own set of poems when I grew up, but then I turned 18 and everything changed
01:30I was at a shoot for dad's new fashion venture when a photographer saw me and was totally floored. She's a diva
01:37I've never seen so much beauty in my life before
01:40She should be the face of your brand
01:43Turned out the photographer was right and I was a natural the ad went live after a week and everyone loved me
01:49I had fan accounts on social media and my life became a series of parties and fancy dinners at one such dinner
01:56Dad introduced me to his investor son Marcus
01:59He was the only heir to his dad's multi-million dollar business and he was dumb as a button
02:04Dad got me a private jet last week for my birthday pick a country and I'll take you for dinner there
02:09Really? I've always wanted to visit the United States of never in this lifetime. That sounds like a cool place
02:15Where exactly is it? Oh, it's close to I can't believe you're so stupid
02:20I've never heard of it, but I'm sure we could make something work. This guy was
02:24Unbelievable and no matter how much I tried stalling him Marcus just never gave up poor guy
02:30You want to date him? I'm pretty sure he's single and I can put in a good word for you
02:37Anyway a few months passed and my life as a model only got busier
02:41I hardly got time to breathe and was constantly tired
02:45I tried telling dad about it, but he always had one thing to say. It's just a phase
02:50Just get a good night's sleep and you'll be fine. No dad
02:53I need a break breaks are for losers Haley
02:57You're on top and if you want to stay there, you'll have to push your limits
03:01I tried but things kept getting messier and then one day during a party
03:06I just decided I'd had enough. So when dad was busy talking to some stupid investors
03:11I slipped away rushed across the street and slid into a taxi. Let's go
03:16I need a location ma'am. Just take me to the first place that comes to your mind
03:21Anywhere as you say the driver hit the accelerator and rushed through traffic landing us straight in front of a public bathroom
03:29You couldn't think of anything better. I was under pressure and I haven't peed in almost 12 hours
03:34This is the only place I could think of now. Wait here and I'll be back in 10. You'll take 10 minutes to pee
03:39Yes, I have a big bladder. Okay runs in the family. Actually, why am I telling you this?
03:44No idea the driver shot me a glance and darted to the bathroom when he walked back
03:49I noticed he was kind of cute. You're drooling. I'm not want me to zoom in
03:56No, that won't be necessary. And I thought you were zipping it up
03:59Whatever
04:00Anyway, the guy introduced himself as Tyler and offered to take me to a diner close by and I happily agreed as the order came
04:08I stuffed my face in food while Tyler gave me a soft smirk. So what's your story? What do you mean?
04:14I mean, you're either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid to trust a taxi driver in the middle of the night
04:21I was hungry and you looked harmless. Also, I always carry pepper spray in my bag
04:26So in case you act funny, I'm well-equipped Tyler shot me a funny look before bursting into a laugh
04:31I joined him and the two of us ended up having a great time
04:35I was kind of disappointed when he dropped me back home
04:37I didn't think I'd ever meet Tyler again, but the next morning while I was leaving for my shoot
04:42I saw him outside my house. So you've been thinking about me. I see
04:47You left this minion keychain in my car last night. Oh
04:51This haha, of course, it's my lucky keychain
04:54You know
04:55It's important to be lucky or you'll get unlucky and you can't get unlucky because then you're just sad and I don't want to be
05:01Sad, so thanks for making me lucky. Sorry. I mean bring my luck back. I should go actually
05:07I was thinking do you want to grab some ice cream or not? You're probably busy darn, right?
05:12She is turned around and some Marcus walking in our direction. Why are you talking to this loser Haley?
05:18Is he bothering you? The only thing bothering me is you Marcus Tyler here is a friend
05:24Really? I didn't know you were friends with sewer rats
05:28What did you just call me Tyler stepped up with his fists balled up, but I got in the way
05:32He's not worth it and Marcus stop butting in my conversations and find someone else to waste time with
05:38Marcus looked furious, but I just held Tyler's arm and left
05:41He was still mad when we got to the ice cream parlor
05:44But I calmed him down and we ended up having a great time
05:47Tyler was cute easy to talk to and he had the best taste in music
05:51We got talking and I told Tyler everything about my life and how I actually wanted to be a poet
05:57But dad was against it. Tyler tucked a strand of hair behind my ears and came closer and my heartbeat was in chaos
06:04Excuse me. I think I need to get myself checked for diabetes
06:09You're spoiling my moment fine fine
06:13So, yeah after that day Tyler and I just got closer
06:17He would drop by at my shoots with my favorite coffee and we'd go for drives
06:21I was the happiest I've been in months with Tyler around but of course Marcus hated it
06:26What are these rumors about you going around with that gutter face taxi driver?
06:31Firstly, that's none of your business and secondly, they aren't rumors
06:34I genuinely like Tyler so you'd choose that poor rat over me. Are you blind or just dumb?
06:41Tyler is twice the man you'll ever be Marcus at least he works hard to pay his bills than just feed off his father's money
06:47Like a parasite now get out of my way. I accidentally pushed Marcus a bit too hard and he landed in a bunch of chairs
06:54I'm sorry, you'll pay for this Haley mark my words
06:58Saying that Marcus just got up and left and when I got home dad was waiting for me looking like a ball of fire
07:04What were you thinking Haley Marcus's dad is our biggest investors and you hurt his son
07:09He was being annoying dad and it was barely a scratch. That's not the point. You need to treat Marcus better
07:16He's not just anybody. He's a moron and he's rude and flashy
07:20I'm already doing everything you're asking me to do and literally left all my dreams behind
07:25Like what become a poet and roam around asking people to read your stupid poems. Let's face it Haley
07:30You're doing so much better here with me. Now. Remember next time you see Marcus be nice and don't do anything stupid
07:37I wanted to argue more but dad got a phone call and he left
07:40I was so bummed when I met Tyler the next day and told him what happened
07:44You did the right thing by standing up for yourself. I don't know. Dad's not happy at all. He'll be fine now
07:51Come on, I want to show you something
07:52We were sitting on a bench overlooking the ranch when Tyler turned to me
07:56He held my hand in his and I felt my cheeks turn red Haley
07:59I know it's probably a long shot and you look like a dream in this moonlight, but I can't keep this to myself anymore
08:06I think I think before Tyler could finish someone pushed him hard and he landed on his face
08:12I turned around and saw Marcus standing behind us. What the heck are you doing here?
08:16Your dad has been calling you for hours, but you weren't answering
08:19He thought someone kidnapped you and came to me for help
08:22So I used my contacts to track you and now I'm gonna tell everyone how this guy abducted you unless of course
08:29You agree to come with me. I'd rather eat a bag of worms than go anywhere with you. Don't make me force you
08:35I'd punch your teeth in before you touch Haley. Uh-huh. Let's see what you got Marcus punched Tyler
08:41But Tyler ducked away just in time. He kicked Marcus in the shin before punching his face. Not my face
08:47You moron just then the police walked in along with dad Marcus must have alerted them once he knew where I was
08:54Take him. He kidnapped my girlfriend and then hit me. See he bruised my perfect jawline
09:00I think I'm feeling dizzy saying that Marcus dropped to the ground like a fly and passed out
09:07Okay, I take my words back Marcus is a moron
09:11Finally we agree on something
09:13Marcus was carried off in an ambulance
09:15Tyler got arrested and I tried to stop the police but dad shoved me in the back of his car and took me home
09:20Why would you do that? Tyler is innocent and Marcus is lying. I need to talk to the police
09:26You can't why not because I'll lose everything that's when dad told me that a few months back
09:32He ran into money troubles and started gambling
09:34He even got involved with some illegal businesses and would have been in jail if Marcus's dad hadn't used his connections to help dad out
09:42The only condition was that you and Marcus get married. You've got to be kidding me
09:46I'm not Marcus fell for you the day. He saw your first dad
09:50He's the one who told his dad to invest money in my business. I thought you guys were old friends dad
09:55I'm not marrying that jerk. You don't have to marry him. You just need to date Marcus
10:01I will stall the wedding by a few months and figure out a way to get out of this debt. Please help me
10:05I wanted to say no, but dad was practically begging me
10:09I'd never seen him so helpless in my life before and it crushed my heart that night
10:14I called Marcus and told him that I was ready to give him a chance if he took back his complaint against Tyler Marcus agreed
10:20And the next morning Tyler was out
10:22I went to the station to see Tyler, but before I could say anything he spoke
10:26I don't think I want to see you anymore
10:28You and I come from very different worlds reputation is everything for me and I can't keep going to jail because of you
10:34So it was nice knowing you but goodbye. Really is that how you feel about me? Yes
10:39Just please stay away from me before I could say another word Tyler walked away
10:44I rushed after him but Marcus got in my way you heard him hails
10:48He doesn't want to see you now be a good girlfriend and forget about that leech
10:52I have planned something exciting for you. The next few weeks were a blur
10:56I missed Tyler terribly and tried reaching out to him, but he never responded
11:01I wanted to go to his place and talk to him
11:03But Marcus was stuck to me like chewing gum and now he was even more controlling than ever
11:09You look hideous in that dress change it. It's my dad's design
11:13Well, it sucks and keep your hair down it hides your ears better
11:17In fact, you should get plastic surgery to fix those ugly ears. The nose needs a little work, too
11:22I'm fine. Just the way I am you could be better
11:25Marcus was horrible and dad was nowhere close to getting the money
11:29I didn't know what else to do except wait
11:31But we were running out of time and soon my engagement was announced on the engagement day
11:36I felt heavy and heartbroken
11:38I was in the room weeping my eyes out when I heard some voices
11:42I rushed outside to see Marcus holding my dad by the collar. What do you mean? You can't pay for a champagne fountain
11:48I already told all my friends. I don't have that kind of money Marcus. You know that then beg borrow rob a bank
11:55I don't care. It's customary in our culture for the girl's father to pay for everything
12:00Marcus kept screaming at dad and I felt my blood boil
12:03I walked up to Marcus punched him in his gut and he winced like a little boy
12:08What do you think you're doing?
12:09It's customary in my culture to punch the guy if he acts like a jerk and for the record
12:14This engagement is off. You can't do that. I'll ruin you and your family. Try me
12:20I took dad's hand and the two of us walked out of the venue as expected
12:24Marcus's dad pulled out his investment and tipped off the police about dad's involvement in the illegal business deals and he got arrested
12:31Dad lost the company and his case went to trial
12:34But fortunately, we had enough savings to hire a good lawyer and dad's sentence was reduced to six months
12:39I'm sorry for dragging you into this mess Haley. I wish I was a better father. You can be one now dad
12:45It's never too late
12:51Are you crying
12:57I don't disagree
12:59Anyway, I picked up modeling again and moved to a smaller apartment
13:02Marcus tried getting in touch a few times, but I got a restraining order against him and a few weeks later
13:07I saw on the news that his dad was arrested for smuggling karma paid him a visit after all
13:13Everything was falling in place except I still missed Tyler a lot
13:16I had gone to visit him at his family ranch
13:18But his neighbors told me he'd moved a few months past dad got out of jail and I finally quit modeling
13:24I wanted to give poetry an honest shot and was writing in a cafe when I heard a familiar voice behind me
13:30Glad to see you're still writing Tyler. Oh my god. How have you been good?
13:36I quit working as a taxi driver and got into college. We even sold the place on the ranch to move closer to college
13:41I know I visited listen Tyler. I know you don't want to see me
13:45But let me stop you right there
13:46Whatever I said at the police station that day was because Marcus threatened me and my family Haley as much as I loved you
13:52I couldn't let him hurt my mom and grandma the way he hurt me
13:55So I decided to let you go and it was the most difficult thing I'd ever done
13:59You should have just told me the truth tie and hold up. Did you say you loved me? Yeah dummy
14:06I loved you. Actually, I think I still do so if you'd like maybe we could catch up over coffee
14:12I'd like that and in case it wasn't clear. I love you, too. I
14:17Think that's pretty obvious now. Yeah. Yeah, whatever now
14:21Can you look away so we can kiss?
