I Opened My Phone After 1 Year

has anyone ever told you that a vacation changed their life well let's just say a little vacation literally destroyed my life I would have never thought it was possible that an Instagram photo shoot would leave me homeless before we get into that don't forget to like this video and subscribe to our channel if you do you'll win a big trip before the end of the year that's actually where my story starts just a fun getaway with my boyfriend Erik see from the Instagram point of view Erik and I were too rich kids living a life of luxury in a way this couldn't be farther from the truth while Erik kept insisting he was rich there were a few red flags I ignored pretty early on see Erik seemed to be all about showing the world what a great couple we were and how great our lives were I guess I always had my suspicions thinking back there were a few times I should have gotten the idea that something was up like this one time he took me out on this fancy date he wore all of these expensive clothes and brought me some to wear to that's when I noticed they all had tags on them still he told me not to damage anything because he had to return them afterwards I told him that if he couldn't afford it we shouldn't do this he would get angry at me for questioning him saying he stayed rich by saving all these things I thought that it was weird but I was head over heels for the guy so I didn't expect anything was up that is until I was with him for so long on this vacation he took so many pictures like we couldn't eat a single meal without him spending 15 minutes turning it into a little photo shoot an outsider would have seen a luxury meal with a million different hashtags underneath like hashtag blast or hashtag couple goals believe it or not there was a secret nightmare behind these photos in fact this made me question a lot of the stuff people put on Instagram behind every perfect photo was a huge fight and very good angles I kept asking if Erik was happy and he kept telling me yes I was a little concerned until he delivered the biggest surprise of the trip okay so it was the second biggest surprise but I'll go into that later so one day after he spent so long snapping pictures of our food that it got cold he went live on his Instagram story I thought it was weird because he always took so long choosing filters but nothing could have prepared me for what came next he got down on his knees and proposed to me it might have seemed like a quiet and intimate location but he had millions of followers watching I won't pretend I wasn't a little excited about it at the time but looking back it was incredibly cringy I said yes and we shared a pretty magical moment on camera a moment that quickly faded when his livestream was off that was the night before we left I had doubts about us but figured it would only get better we had the rest of our lives right wrong we were all prepared to get on the plane when we were going through customs I got flagged because something was weird and Eric stayed back with me the officer said it was nothing to worry about probably just an issue with the system well after about an hour of waiting they told me news that shook me to the core my passport wasn't valid I don't understand I said in disbelief I used it to get on the plane after all they told me that the security measures weren't as intense leaving the country as they were entering it unfortunately they had just noticed that I didn't have a valid passport I was so scared and nervous this might have been my homeland but I didn't want to be stranded here it wasn't my home and I almost had no money relying off of Eric for most of the trip to top it all off I only spoke English that's right my parents wanted us to embrace the culture so much they never spoke Hungarian with me I turned to Eric to see what we should do he looked super nervous I asked him to stay but he told me he would figure it out from America he didn't want to lose his flight Yeah right he left me right there in the custom section he turned back for a moment and I let myself hope that he was coming back for me I feel sick to my stomach with what he said next I can't forget this he said running up and grabbing my ring off my finger it's just a rental don't worry I'll buy you a new one later well there I was all alone he left me right there without having a second thought about me but don't worry he didn't quite leave my life yet you'll have to wait to the end to hear about Eric but I promise it's worth it I just have more important things to discuss first I waited for hours and hours they ended up telling me that I just wasn't an American citizen in fact I wasn't a citizen anywhere they were sorry but there was nothing they could do for me I was stranded with nothing but a couple of dollars the clothes on my back and a dying cell phone my charger and emergency money was all in my checked luggage which took off without me I used the final moments of my cell phone to FaceTime with my parents and explained what happened turns out they knew it was a fake passport they had problems getting my real information so they thought it would be just fine I was so angry I said some pretty harsh things to them things that I regret saying to this day I immediately wanted to take the mean words back but before I could the phone died normally I got a little extra help for my good looks but the stress of the experience and the lack of makeup access left me looking a little less than good I was handed a couple of bags of stuff and just sent on my way no one spoke English at all and I was completely lost I ended up living in a park for a couple of days i sat there like a beggar with a dirty Cup I took from a trash can to collect coins from strangers at first I saved up all of my coins to try to call my parents unfortunately our phone was disconnected they didn't have social media or anything so there was no way to get ahold of them at all as money got harder to come by I gave up calling and focused on surviving if I was lucky I would make enough to exchange it for something to eat from one of the local street vendors this one time I had a pretty good day when some child stole a cup right in front of me I ran after them for a couple of minutes hopping over bushes and avoiding pedestrians I caught the kid and ripped the cup from his hand he tried speaking to me in Hungarian but I didn't understand anything that's when a young girl came from behind the corner and hid behind him she couldn't have been more than six years old it was obvious he stole it for her I let him have the money and just walked away accepting that I would just have to go to bed on an empty stomach again i sat on the ground with my head wrapped in a blanket and started dozing off that's when I smelled the most amazing food in my life I thought I was dreaming at first but when I opened my eyes there was a huge meal right in front of me I was starving and I immediately dug in without asking any questions I gulped the whole plate of food in under five minutes I must have looked pretty funny doing it because I heard a little chuckle that's right in my fit of hunger I never even bothered to see who had given me the food this woman about my age in a business suit tried to say something in Hungarian but I just stared back for a bit when I didn't answer her immediately she turned and said is English better I just said it seemed like you were hungry I was in tears like my eyes were like literal waterfalls it had been so long since anyone had treated me with such kindness and that I could understand it we talked about school and how I ended up here in the first place when she asked me what I studied her jaw dropped you study computer science she asked with her mouth wide open that's right folks I'm not just some pretty face who obsessed over Instagram filters I am also pretty smart she told me that smart people like me didn't belong on the streets and to stop by her office sometime tomorrow she fiddled through her wallet for a business card with her address on it I could barely sleep that night it was the first time in months I was going to bed on a full stomach and I had hope I was a little self-conscious walking up to the company building the next morning I tried my best to wash my hair in a public restroom and clean up my clothes but it was still very obvious I was living on the streets still no one seemed to judge me at all it also helped that the woman I saw yesterday was the CEO I aced the interview and they gave me a job spot just when I thought it couldn't get better she gave me the company card we don't let our employees sleep on the streets she said with a wink she gave me the address to a hotel they did business with I was going to live in one of the rooms there until I got set up with some sort of apartment she was even nice enough to send a whole bunch of clothes there she said I could have a couple of days to settle in but on Tuesday I would start my first day as one of her software engineers now I had some internships with tech companies before I was expecting a room in some small hostel or a basic hotel what I wasn't expecting was a five-star luxury experience I had to do a double-take to make sure I had the right address when I walked in all eyes were on me for the first time in months I was actually self conscious about how I loved everyone was wearing elegant gowns and fancy jewelry I on the other hand was wearing a very dirty dress and shoes with holes in them may I help you a butler asked while eyeing me suspiciously I told him I had been sent here by the tech company and he immediately changed his tone he brought me right up to my room my room was amazing it was like one of the things you would see on TV I was even able to charge up my phone again for the first time in almost a year I was kind of anxious to see what messages I would have gotten maybe something from Eric or my parents absolutely nothing I logged into my Instagram only to see I now had a lot of followers someone had been posting content on my page this whole time I went to my messages to see that whoever was posting on my page was also telling all of my friends I never wanted to see them again this had Eric written all over it I was starting to get angry again when I heard a knock at the door and looked up to see this super handsome man he just wanted to make sure everything was okay he introduced himself as Hans a fan of my new company he had promised my boss to show me around Hans told me to make myself at home and he would meet me for breakfast after I had gotten time to wash up and get a good night's sleep I took the best shower I had ever taken in my life looking at myself with my hair washed and a clean face I started to cry again I know it's something so small but it really does feel nice to feel pretty after I was invisible for so many months invisible was something I did not have to worry about while I'd like to take credit as I looked gorgeous and makeup into my new ballgown I think all eyes were always on Hannes I asked him why everyone was always staring at him are you some sort of special guest I asked as we sat down at breakfast guests I owned the hotel he laughed I really couldn't believe it I always imagined the super-wealthy to be mean and selfish but Hans was everything else the more I got to know him the more I started to fall for him how could I not become infatuated with the sky I loved the way he always brought meals to the homeless children and was very patient teaching me Hungarian if being kind and rich weren't enough to make him the top bachelor he was incredibly handsome I instantly forgot all about Eric and his schemes unlike Eric constant treat me like some kind of toy in fact he was impressed with everything I had done I spent my days in the office making some pretty great money at night I'd meet with him and to hang out until the wee hours of the morning one day he was having some pretty significant problems with this computer system and I was able to fix everything in a matter of minutes I know it's kind of weird but that's when we shared our first kiss he was looking for someone who wasn't just with him for money and I wanted to be with someone that didn't treat me like an accessory I shared all my hopes and dreams with him and him with me we were dating pretty quickly I kind of started to forget about my old life in America I got used to the language the people the culture the only thing I really missed was my parents who I was still unable to contact still my new life here with Hans gave me a new family which I very much appreciate one day Hans did something I seriously would have never expected though he asked me to meet him on the roof of the hotel one night he bought me a whole new outfit to wear complete with a huge diamond neck fancy heels I expected something big but when I got there my mouth dropped it was like a fairy tale there were candles all around us and fancy violinist playing classical music there was Hans in the middle of the roof surrounded by roses he told me that he had thought long and hard about our future and he couldn't see himself without me and his but there is something I need to do before I propose he said signaling somewhere behind him out from behind some fixtures came my parents I ran up to them nearly breaking my heel and jumping in their arms turns out the second I called them they sold everything and moved back here Hans had spent months looking for them for me without even saying anything they had spent the last years looking for me I was bawling my eyes out like a baby who thought I would spend the happiest day of my life with streaks of mascara down my face right in front of me he asked my father for his blessing which he gave with all of his heart then he knelt down on one knee and proposed to me I said yes and never looked back I never would have thought that I would have ended up living in a fancy hotel in Hungary but I couldn't be happier I'd still talk with some of my American friends now but my life is here and I have no intentions of coming back oh and you remember Eric well he ended up getting arrested some anonymous computer programmer released some evidence of him committing a crime it's funny how things work out like that
