Coping

[Location] Camilo's room, La Casa Madrigal
[Time] 9:03AM

[3rd Person POV]
Camilo rushes into his room while aggressively places his food onto his desk, " 'MiRaBeL iS sUuUcH a GoOd kId UnLiKe uSeLesS cAmILo.' " Camilo mocked his mother words while shapeshifting into her.

He collapsed into his bed, shapeshifting back into himself. He gave out a hurt and exhausted sigh, "I just woke up and I already feel so exhausted..." he said to himself while he lift his hand, looking at it.

"Bring yourself together Camilo.. You're not being yourself.." He sat up on his bed and look down to his hands.

"The problem is... I don't.. I don't even know who I am.." He said in a confused and upsetting way as he turns to look into a mirror across his bed. There was no reflection on the mirror, it was part of his room. None of the mirrors in his room would show his reflection and it crushes him even more.

"Enough of this Camilo... Its time to get your energy back up." He said to himself once again as he jumps off the bed and goes towards his desk. Beside his plate of food was a radio, he turned on the radio and opened an energetic and cheerful Colombian music.

Camilo instantly got his happy mood back and started to dance around his room to the music. His flexibility gave him the ability to dance more smoothly and dramatically, he has always been amazing at dancing and it was one of his favourite ways of getting himself to cheer up. As he dance he would loudly sing along to the music in a dramatic way. He was having the time of his life.

[Meanwhile with the rest of the family]

Dolores could hear her brother having a good time in his room, she was a bit relieved to hear that her brother found a way to cheer himself up but she still regretted pushing him too far, Camilo was never the type to yell at a family member like that. He was a sweet and gentle boy to his family. He never had a breakdown like that before.

Abuela was not that worried, she has dealt with a lot of breakdowns before especially with Pepa so shes not surprised to see her daughter's son to be as emotional as her.

Pepa however, her cloud have been drenching her in anxiety. She was so worried for her poor son, was it something she said? Have she been stressing him out? Her thoughts have been blaming her for his breakdown and all she wanted to do was go and comfort her son but she decided to finish her food first but she can barely eat.

Félix notices how stressed out his wife is and was rubbing her back to calm her down. He noticed how slow she was eating and how she's barely eating at all, "Amor, let me..." Félix took the spoon from his wife's hand and started to feed her himself, "Better?.." Félix asked gently. Pepa nodded lightly with a nervous smile as Félix return another smile to her.

Bruno was also oddly worried for Camilo and couldn't wait anymore, he stood up from his seat, "I-.. I-.. I need to go to the... Um.. Bathroom.." Bruno awkwardly scooch out of his seat as the family watches him walks away. No one thought too much about it and continues to eat their food.

Bruno walked towards Camilo's room but before he knocked on the door, he could hear Camilo loudly singing with the loud music. He hesitated to knock, thinking that the shapeshifting teenager have moved on but he knows its not that easy.
