hi my name is pearl my parents were one
of the richest people in the city and
when i was born everyone gasped at how
amazingly beautiful i was and since i
was their only child my parents treated
me like a princess agua goo oh my gosh
honey our daughter said her first words
let's throw a party they were just crazy
about me i had hundreds of maids to feed
me bathe me walk me and even comb my
hair oh my gosh
you broke my darling girl's hair do you
have any idea what this hair is worth
it's worth millions of course mom
overreacted a lot she would even fire
the maids if my milk was not the right
temperature and dad was no less when i
turned five he ordered the servants to
redecorate my room and you won't believe
it he changed everything to gold and
diamonds including my toilet seat not
only that but i had different dresses
and shoes to wear every day and the
driver would drop me off to school in my
favorite pink lamborghini i felt like a
true princess and honestly i loved it
but there was someone who hated every
bit of the life that i lived melissa she
was the meanest girl in my class and she
hated me for well everything she would
steal my dolls cut their heads off and
toss them away once she even trashed all
of my notebooks but school wasn't the
only place that i had to bear her her
parents were friends with mine and i
often saw her at sleepovers and parties
too on my 14th birthday mom and dad
threw me a grand party and invited all
of their rich friends and of course
melissa came with her parents too when i
walked down the stairs everyone looked
stunned by my beauty everyone but
melissa her face turned red like a
tomato good lord your daughter is so
pretty i think i'm gonna marry her to my
son ew
no
there was no way that i was gonna marry
his stupid son xander but i wasn't the
only one who was mad about it melissa
had always dreamed of becoming super
rich by marrying xander because his dad
was the richest man in the city and she
looked super pissed at this comment but
then suddenly her facial expressions
changed and she walked up to me with a
smile hey pearl happy birthday here is a
gift from me what was there a bomb in
there but then when i opened the box a
kitten jumped out of it oh my gosh it's
so cute i loved it but why was melissa
being so nice to me all of a sudden
something didn't feel right later that
night when everyone left i was playing
with my cute little kitten when suddenly
it scratched my face with its paw
melissa's cat turned out to be just like
her evil mom and dad came rushing out
when they heard my screams they rushed
me to a hospital but even after weeks of
treatments and several procedures the
scar didn't go away now i had no choice
but to live with it and cover it with
makeup when i went back to school
melissa was waiting to mess with me
again but thank god she had no idea
about my scar or she would make my life
a nuisance
move pearl this is my seed and just
because you're rich doesn't mean you own
everything well i do own a lot of things
but i don't see your name on it either
she got super pissed and she was about
to throw her plate of food in my face
when xander cut in and stopped her hey
hey
stay away from my girl pearl stop
messing with her my girl what's going on
i'm not your girl are you crazy oh my
sweet pea don't you remember what my dad
said on your birthday we're gonna be
married eventually what we're just 14
are you crazy
there is no way you can marry him pearl
i won't let that happen
well i won't let that happen either now
get away from me both of you god these
guys were so crazy it was such a
headache going to school every day and
seeing them especially xander he was
such a pain in the butt he'd flirt with
me all the time and scare away all of
the other guys who ever try to talk to
me i hated every bit of my junior year
up until the teacher introduced an
exchange korean student to the class his
name was mino and gosh he was so
handsome the teacher asked me to help
him with the syllabus and while we were
studying in the library one day xander
came marching at us who do you think you
are sitting here with my girlfriend
saying that he suddenly grabbed my hand
you're coming with me pearl let go of my
hand xander i'm not your girlfriend just
then mino cut in and punched him in the
face you should have just let her go oh
my gosh his deep voice and those fierce
eyes i instantly fell in love with him
he was so amazing xander ran from there
like a scaredy cat and i thanked mino
for saving me from that jerk to which he
smiled and said well i can see he's a
jerk but you're so pretty
anyone would go crazy for you oh my gosh
he thought that i was pretty my cheeks
turned red and i almost melted after
that mina when i spent most of our time
reading in the library together it was
so much fun just to sit next to him and
admire all of those books months felt
like days with him and i couldn't
believe that a year had passed with him
then one day while i was having lunch at
the cafeteria xander came up to me and
started acting up all of a sudden you
think you're gonna be happy with that
stupid jerk who's a loser well last i
saw you were the one who got punched
that's that's because i just didn't hit
the gym that day but anyways i won't let
him take you away from me pearl you
don't own me xander now get lot but
before i could complete my sentence
melissa threw a can of juice in my face
stay away from my guy you witch
don't you already have a guy now melissa
have you lost it drop the act you
boyfriend stealer but then suddenly i
realized my makeup my scar i pushed past
her and ran to the washroom immediately
but to my horror i ran straight into
mino his eyes widened as he looked at me
oh no why are you well wet who did this
to you what did he see my scar or was it
that he just didn't care tell me who did
this i'm gonna teach them a lesson no no
me no it's fine i i just tripped i
couldn't believe that he got so mad
seeing me hurt and he didn't mention
anything about my scar
like it was totally normal oh gosh he
was such a darling i couldn't resist it
anymore i pulled him in for our first
kiss and wow it was magical after that
we started officially dating and i felt
like the happiest person on earth but
not for long mom what's wrong why are
you crying it's your dad honey
he had a heart attack oh my gosh mom
what happened where is he mom told me
that dad lost all his money in a bad
investment and now we're almost bankrupt
dad didn't take the news so well and he
ended up in the hospital
after that i stayed at home for almost a
week until dad recovered and i didn't
tell mino so he wouldn't worry then one
day all of a sudden mom and dad asked me
to accompany them to a party but dad you
just got discharged
but they insisted that i tag along
anyway and they asked me to doll up and
put on my best dress but when we got
there xander's dad made an announcement
that almost gave me a heart attack hello
everyone it brings me great joy to
announce the engagement of my son xander
with my friend's daughter pearl please
everyone give the couple a big hand and
with that mom started dragging me onto
the stage
what mom
wait what's going on is this some sort
of joke oh honey please don't be mad
it's the only chance that we have to
save our company and our home
besides xander is such a nice guy no mom
xander's a jerk and i am not doing this
oh honey but look at your dad
he's so happy the doctor said that he
wouldn't survive another heart attack do
you want him to leave us forever i
looked at dad and indeed he looked happy
and although i loved mino so much i
couldn't let my dad die either
so i had to choose my parents happiness
over mine a few days later when i went
to school i found out that xander had
told everyone about our engagement
including mino and he looked furious
tell me this is all a lie tell me you
didn't want any part of this just tell
me but i couldn't tell him the truth
mino i love xander and that's why i am
marrying him no you're lying no i'm not
he's rich and who doesn't want money i
knew that he loved me and that my words
would break his heart but i had no
choice but to lie after hearing what i
said he backed off and he left and he
never looked at me again
finally on our wedding day when i felt
like everything was gonna be fine things
took a while turn i heard mom and dad
talking about something i had never
imagined in my worst nightmare stop
eating so much you're gonna have another
gastric attack and it's your daughter's
wedding day well thanks to my gastric
attack pearl agreed to the marriage
thinking it was a heart attack otherwise
there was no way of getting her to agree
to this and we would have remained poor
for the rest of our lives what you guys
lied to me how could you
mom started crying and tried to stop me
please honey please understand that we i
sacrificed my happiness because of you
guys and you
oh i hate you i stormed out of the
wedding venue throwing the wedding ring
in xander's face when i met him on my
way out stop pearl where are you going
wait you're the one leaving really i
know all about your ugly scar and i
still want you you stupid girl this is
how you pay me back what you knew you
ed i knew so come back here and kiss me
right now or i'll make you regret it he
got closer and tried to pull me to him
but i slapped him hard and left i wasn't
gonna wait or listen to anyone anymore i
had to find mino and tell him that i
loved him i called his friends but they
told me that he was at a bts concert at
the met life stadium
really of all places a bts concert i
rushed to the stadium and i ran
backstage to grab a mic and shout out my
confession to him but oh my gosh i
couldn't believe my eyes when i ran into
all of the bts members it was like i was
dreaming what are you doing here why are
you dressed like that do you need some
help of course i wish that the time
would stop right there and then but i
had to find the love of my life i told
them about my situation and i asked them
to help me and they did
they were so nice they allowed me to go
on stage and talk to mino i was really
nervous but then i gathered all of my
courage to speak mino i'm so sorry that
i lied to you but the truth is is that i
love you and i can't live without you
please forgive me my eyes filled with
tears as i confessed my love for him and
then i saw him running towards me
through the crowd he jumped up on stage
and he kissed me the crowd cheered for
us as he lifted me up in his arms and he
whispered into my ears
[Applause]
