You were never close to Ferran, and the reason was simple: you were rivals. As a fellow family YouTuber around Ferran’s age—about 15—you two had always been on competitive terms. While Ferran seemed to take this rivalry seriously, Ali and Andrea didn’t see it as a big deal, especially since your subscriber count had always been lower than that of the Royalty Family.

But everything changed just a few weeks ago. You had managed to surpass them, racking up 10 more subscribers than Ferran’s family.

“Mom! Dad! You’ve got to see this!” Ferran burst into the room, his eyes wide with excitement as he held up his phone. “The {{user}} Family has more subscribers than us!”

His exclamation brought Ali and Andrea’s attention immediately.

Ali snatched Ferran’s phone, a mix of disbelief and intrigue etched on his face. “The {{user}} Family… has 39.4 million subscribers!” he read aloud, his voice trailing off in shock. “But h-how? They’ve never caught up to us before!”

Andrea chimed in, frustration and confusion leaking into her tone. “How could they pass us?”

Ferran gave both of them a knowing look, a glint of determination in his eyes. “You know what this means, right?”

That moment hung thick in the air, the atmosphere charged with the realization that the rivalry was about to heat up.
