00:00Hi, I'm Penny from Nebraska, except my parents are nomads, which means we travel to another state every month.
00:07Before I continue, please like and subscribe.
00:09By the time I was 8 years old, I'd lived almost everywhere.
00:13I stayed in a tent in the desert, old abandoned houses in the forest, and even in a beach cave.
00:19My dad and I couldn't be happier with our crazy life.
00:22Pinky promised me, Daddy, you'll never make me go to school, we'll swim every day in the ocean, and you'll take us to the moon one day.
00:29I pinky swear, my love.
00:31Though, when I was 13 years old, everything changed.
00:35Mom woke me up one morning to tell me her and Dad were splitting up.
00:39Dad wanted to keep traveling, while Mom wanted to settle down in the city.
00:42Well, I don't want to settle, so I'm going to keep traveling with Dad, and I really think you should join us.
00:48Penny, I want you to stay with Mom. I love you, but taking you with me is too much work.
00:53But we were going to see the world together and fly to...
00:57I'm sorry. Good luck, honey.
00:58Dad kissed my forehead, and then he freaking left.
01:02Mom and I moved to Nebraska City, and I was shaking with anger.
01:06I tore up every picture I had of Dad and threw them in our fireplace.
01:10Two years passed, and all I wanted was to forget about him.
01:13Then one day, things took an interesting turn.
01:17I went for a walk in the park when a letter flew at my feet.
01:20I looked up to see a boy smiling at me through the bushes.
01:23Oh my god, you scared me! What are you doing?
01:26I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.
01:29I was just too nervous to talk to you, but I still wanted to look at you, because you're beautiful.
01:34The boy rose up from the bushes, and holy crud, he was majestic!
01:39Take a walk with me. I'll take you somewhere magical.
01:43Okay, Prince Charming.
01:45I'm actually gonna jet, because I don't go off with strangers.
01:49I ran away quickly, but when I reached home, I saw the guy had followed me.
01:53Alright, now you're just stalking me. Leave me alone, or I'll call the police.
01:57You're right. I'm sorry. I can't explain it, but I feel like we're meant to be together.
02:02Just let me take you on one date. I'll meet you right here at sunset.
02:06If you don't like me after the date, I'll leave you alone. I swear.
02:09Hmm. Okay, fine. You're kinda cute.
02:13But we have to be in a public area around other people.
02:16The guy agreed, but when I went out to meet him, I almost fell back in shock.
02:20He had landed a golden jet in my driveway.
02:23Hey, gorgeous. Wanna fly to Europe for dinner?
02:26Did you just fly here in a gold jet? I didn't even know that was a thing.
02:31Well, I'm a billionaire. I also brought you a few presents.
02:34An iPad, some chocolates, and I bought you your own horse.
02:38My jaw dropped open when I literally saw a man trot by on a black horse.
02:44This was getting to be a bit too much.
02:46Uh, listen. I appreciate all these gifts, but maybe we can just go somewhere simple,
02:52like the park we met at?
02:54To my relief, the guy agreed and set up a lovely picnic under the trees.
02:59He told me his name was Ezra and just wouldn't stop showering me with compliments.
03:03Ezra, thanks for all this, but I'm still a little confused.
03:08Why do you like me so much? We don't even know each other.
03:11Like I said, I can't explain it.
03:13But I know for a fact we're meant to be together.
03:15Just wait and see.
03:16As the evening went on, I discovered Ezra and I had literally everything in common.
03:22When I told him I liked video games, he showed me a picture of his PS4.
03:26When I told him my favorite food was lime cheesecake, he opened a container of it.
03:30Then my shoulders started feeling sore since I suffered from neck pain.
03:34And before I said anything, Ezra offered to give me a neck rub.
03:38How did you know I have shoulder pain?
03:40Only my mom knows about that.
03:42I could just tell you were in pain.
03:44I understand you in a way nobody else does, Penny.
03:47After Ezra's massage, my neck felt better than ever, which is insane.
03:52No doctor or masseuse had ever been able to make my pain go away.
03:55As time passed, Ezra and I kept hanging out.
03:58He kept buying me every gift I could want.
04:01And whenever I needed something, he was always at my beck and call.
04:04He was a literal angel.
04:06It didn't take me too long to agree to be his girlfriend.
04:09Some time later, Ezra said that he'd transfer to my school next term.
04:13I couldn't stop squealing about it to my friend Jenna.
04:16I'd love to meet him soon.
04:18He sounds like a guy out of a storybook.
04:20And dating someone that hot will probably make you super popular.
04:24What do you mean popular?
04:26Oh, right.
04:27I forgot you were homeschooled before you moved here.
04:30Being popular means everyone thinks you're cool because you're dating a boy like Ezra?
04:34God, my life was just getting better by the second.
04:37Ezra met Jenna and I by a quiet bus stop as I kissed him.
04:40He even got me a caramel latte.
04:43Isn't he perfect?
04:44Ezra introduced himself to Jenna, but she just stared at us, looking horrified.
04:49Jenna, what's wrong?
04:50Why aren't you saying hi to Ezra?
04:53Penny?
04:53No, I am not saying hi to him.
04:55Oh my god, I have to go.
04:57With that, Jenna ran off as if Ezra was a monster.
05:00What was her deal?
05:01I tried asking her about it all day, but she refused to talk to me.
05:05Babe, don't take it personally.
05:07She's just mad because you have a loving boyfriend and she's single.
05:11She'll get over it.
05:12Finally, the next day, I cornered Jenna in the library.
05:15Look, I can see you're jealous of Ezra and I'm sorry.
05:18I don't want to rub it in your face, but this is the first time I've been happy in years.
05:23My parents divorced, my dad left, and I miss traveling.
05:26I told Jenna all about what had happened in the past few years and she was actually sympathetic.
05:30It's not that I'm jealous.
05:33I can see that Ezra makes you happy, which you deserve, but I'm still not happy about
05:37you dating him and I don't think you guys should be together for much longer.
05:41I kept asking Jenna why she was so against Ezra, but she refused to talk about it anymore.
05:46She even started avoiding me.
05:48So, Ezra and I kept going out and finally, the night came when I invited Ezra for dinner
05:53to meet mom, but I was really confused when he didn't show up or call or text me.
05:58In fact, I didn't hear from him at all the next day either.
06:02I was starting to get really worried.
06:04I didn't even know where he lived, but on my way to the bus stop the next morning,
06:08I saw him sitting on a bench.
06:09Ezra, what happened?
06:11You totally blew me off last night.
06:13Just go away, Penny.
06:14I hate you and I never want to see you again.
06:17What are you talking about?
06:18What happened?
06:19I said, get away from me.
06:21Do you want me to call the cops?
06:22Ezra stormed off angrily and tears stung my eyes.
06:26What did I do to make Ezra so angry?
06:28I told Jenna all about it when I got to school.
06:31Wow, he broke up with you?
06:32I didn't think that would happen.
06:34I thought he'd stay with you for longer.
06:36Jenna, what are you saying?
06:38Do you know something about Ezra that I don't?
06:41Do you two know each other?
06:43Yeah, we do.
06:44I didn't want to say anything before, but I know Ezra and he's bad news, Penny.
06:49He used to date a friend of mine and really hurt her.
06:53Just stay away from him, please.
06:55Judging from Ezra's behavior, Jenna was probably right, but I was still confused and sad for
07:01the next coming weeks.
07:03Jenna kept trying to cheer me up and suggested she set me up with someone new.
07:07So we went on a double date where she introduced me to a guy named Noah, and I actually had
07:12fun with him, even though I was still sad about Ezra.
07:15I even let Noah walk me home and decided to hug him goodnight.
07:19But from behind Noah's shoulder, I saw Ezra sitting on my porch, glaring at me angrily.
07:24Oh my god!
07:26I sent Noah home immediately and stormed over to my ex-boyfriend.
07:30What are you doing here?
07:31I haven't seen you in months.
07:33Are you ready to finally explain what happened between us?
07:36Oh no, I don't owe you an explanation.
07:39I'm just here to tell you that there's no way that Noah guy will ever love you.
07:43Cause you're the nastiest girl I've ever met.
07:46Funny, because months ago, you said I was the love of your life.
07:50I don't know what your problem is, but just back off, Ezra.
07:53I'm moving on from you.
07:54You can stop insulting me now.
07:56I don't think I will.
07:57You're a horrible girl and you don't deserve to be happy or loved.
08:01And I'll make sure you never are.
08:04God, what a bully!
08:05I started dating Noah and really started liking him.
08:09And I felt ten times better with Ezra out of my life.
08:12Then one day, I got a text from Noah to meet him at the movie theater for a date.
08:16But when I got there, Noah wasn't waiting for me.
08:19Ezra was.
08:20Well, well, well.
08:21Look who it is.
08:23It was you who texted?
08:24Did you hack Noah's phone?
08:26Even better.
08:27I hacked your phone so I could read your messages.
08:30Look, Noah will be here any minute and I want to talk to you.
08:33And apologize.
08:35It's too late.
08:36I want nothing to do with you.
08:38I started to walk away, but Ezra put his hand on my shoulders.
08:42Penny, I know I've been a jerk these past few days, but I can explain myself.
08:46Give me a chance.
08:47If you don't forgive me, then I'll never bother you again.
08:50But let's just talk.
08:51I still didn't trust Ezra, but I did want to hear what went on with him.
08:56Just then, Noah texted me and said he'd be a little late.
08:59So Ezra said he'd buy me a soda.
09:01He went to go order for me and I went to go fill up my cup.
09:04Then suddenly, an employee came up to me.
09:06Excuse me, miss?
09:07You can't just walk in here and pour yourself a soda.
09:10You have to pay.
09:11Oh, my friend is buying it.
09:13He's paying right now.
09:14But when I looked towards the counter, I realized Ezra had left.
09:18What the fudge?
09:19I tried explaining the situation to the employee, but she didn't listen.
09:23Instead, she called security on me.
09:25The guards had me wait outside the manager's office.
09:28And as soon as they left, Ezra came up to me.
09:31Ha ha ha ha!
09:32You're such an idiot, Penny.
09:35I lied about buying you a soda.
09:36I set the whole thing up so you'd get in trouble.
09:39What?
09:39But you said you were going to apologize and explain yourself.
09:43Oh, you beautiful, naive girl.
09:46As if I would ever apologize or explain myself.
09:49Ezra walked away before I could answer, and that's when I realized.
09:53He was a criminal.
09:54That's why Jenna didn't want me dating him.
09:57I told the manager and security guards everything.
09:59I thought I was in luck since Ezra probably had a criminal record, but they couldn't find
10:04anything on him.
10:05Then I remembered something.
10:07Jenna knew Ezra, and she could help me.
10:09I called her immediately and told her everything that happened.
10:12That's when I heard her crying over the phone.
10:15Penny, this is horrible.
10:17I know.
10:18You were right.
10:19Ezra was a crook.
10:20I understand now.
10:21I'm gonna call your mom.
10:22She needs to know what happened.
10:24We'll come meet you there, okay?
10:26Oh, God.
10:26She was getting mom involved?
10:28But Jenna hung up before I could say a word.
10:30Thankfully, Noah texted me, and I told him to meet me at the manager's office.
10:34Thank God for him.
10:36Don't worry about anything, babe.
10:38We're gonna find this guy and get a restraining order.
10:40You're gonna be okay.
10:41After a few minutes, Jenna arrived with mom, and they both told me to sit down.
10:46Ugh, here we go.
10:48Then suddenly, the door opened, and it was Ezra.
10:51That jerk better have come to turn himself in.
10:53Stay right where you are, Ezra.
10:55We're all on to you now.
10:57Uh, Penny?
10:58Who are you talking to?
11:00That monster over there?
11:01He's my ex-boyfriend who framed me?
11:04No, baby.
11:05There's no one there.
11:07Are you okay?
11:08Uh, yes, he is.
11:10Jenna?
11:10Mom?
11:11You don't see Ezra there?
11:12I turned to Jenna right then, but her and mom were staring at each other with tears in
11:17their eyes.
11:17No, Penny.
11:18There isn't anyone there.
11:20Jenna called me, and we talked for a while about your relationship with Ezra.
11:24How he brought you a horse, baked you your favorite foods, and adored you.
11:28Jenna even saw you kiss him at the bus stop.
11:30He was the perfect imaginary boyfriend.
11:34I...
11:34I don't understand.
11:36Imaginary boyfriend?
11:37You mean Ezra isn't real?
11:39I just made him up?
11:41Penny, it was my fault.
11:43I was the only one who met Ezra.
11:45When I saw you hug and kiss the air, at first I thought you were insane, but when you told
11:51me what you went through with the divorce and how happy you were for the first time, I
11:55decided to play along with it.
11:57But then he broke up with you and turned against you and you were so upset, I didn't know what
12:02to do or how to tell you the truth.
12:04I was dead silent as I thought back to everything Ezra and I had been through together.
12:09I'd sat alone in the park having an imaginary picnic.
12:12I'd imagined his love letter at my feet, and as I reached back to feel my neck, it
12:17hurt more than ever.
12:19The healing massage he'd given me had been in my head.
12:22I started to cry then as mom hugged me.
12:25She took me to a therapist after that day to see what had caused the whole thing.
12:29You were heartbroken that your dad left, so you created a perfect boyfriend in your
12:34head to give you all the love and attention you needed.
12:37And then, eventually, Ezra betrayed you in your mind because your dad betrayed you.
12:43Well, I guess that makes sense.
12:46After my therapy appointment, I asked mom to drop me off at Noah's house to cheer me up.
12:51Noah came out to hug me as mom pulled up in front of his house.
12:54Wait, mom, do you see Noah?
12:56Is he real?
12:57Please, tell me the truth.
12:59Yes, baby.
13:00Noah is real.
13:01Yeah, I'm real and I love you, Penny.
13:04And I promise to never hurt you.
13:06That means so much to hear.
13:08I love you too, Noah.
