"CC wake up. You're gonna be late for school" Jess said as she knocked the door of her daughter's room.
Slowly CC opened her eyes and gets herself up as she rubs her eyes a bit. She took her phone and threw it back again as the phone still unusable for her.
Jumped out of the bed as she took her towel and gets into the bathroom. She stood under the shower and let the water runs onto from her head throughout her body.
Few moments later she got out and look at her laptop. She remembered that there was a late notification in before she fell asleep.
"Oh new followers...again" she said as she sighed and look at their profile. Her eyes widen and wide smile creeps on her face "YES!!!!" She celebrates out loud and quickly gets ready for the school.

"After school I want you guys to go straight home. No hang out. no experiment in the house. No mess" Carlos said as he drives.
"Also don't bring anyone into the house behind our back. Coz we'll know" Allison added.
"Okay/ayyye" their children replied.
Carlos smiles and look at his oldest one from the back mirror "what's wrong Katie? You look like you woke up at the wrong side of your bed" the father teased.
Katie puts her phone down and stare at her father on the mirror "ha ha very funny dad. I just don't have enough sleep that's all" she said which is pretty much true.
'I keep thinking about her till 4 am...I might go crazy' she thought to herself.
Carlos stopped the car as they reached the school. Katie gets out first followed by Nando. Ellie pops her head out of the window and wave to her older brother and sister "byeee Nando byeeee Katie" she said.
"Remember kids! Behave when we're gone visiting your abuela! We'll be back on weekends" Allison reminded before Carlos drove away.
"Can't believe they left us alone." Nando said.
Katie chuckled and pat her brother on the back "oh come one. At least this teach us to be independent. Let's go" she said as she walked with her brother.

CC walked up into her class and look for her best friend "Ava!" She called as she found her and quickly ran towards the girl.
"Hey~ CC~ what's up~" Ava said.
"Good ! Super delightful !" CC said in excitement as she sat on at her own desk.
Ava scoots and smiles "so tell me...did she call nor text you yet? Coz I'm starting to think you just hallucinating stuff" she jokes then laughs.
"She's real. She really is real. let me borrow your phone and I'll show you." CC said with a bright smile.
"What happened to yours?" Ava asked.
"I broke it...but that's okay. I'll get new one" she said as she logged in her account on instagram with Ava's phone.
She happily showed the profile on the screen towards Ava "her name is Katie Torres, she's same age with us but sadly...she lives far away. California" she said sadly at the last part.
"Wait." Ava said as she took her phone as she noticed someone familiar. Her eyes widen when she saw it and showed CC "that's your mother right???" Ava said as she couldn't believe with her own eyes.
CC grabbed the phone and look at it in disbelief "no.this can't be real. Her mother...."
~~~~~
"....is our mother???" Katie said as she look at her brother.
"Didn't you notice this last night?" Nando asked as he took his phone from her sister.
Katie rubs down on the temple of her head slowly as she began to get a headache "why do things always get messy?" She said.
"But maybe that woman is one of those 7 people that shares the same face as mom" Katie said.
Nando thought for a second and nodded "or maybe...mom have a long lost twins that she never even remembered of having one" the brother said.
"I wish for the first one but you get my hopes down because if the second one is true then I can't be with her. Can't imagine to date my own cousin" katie slummed her head on the table.
"Right. I wish for the first one for you because I don't want you to complain about your forbidden love. Bye sis" Nando said as he exited her classroom and attended his.
~~~~~
CC couldn't focus much in her class. She can't stop thinking that they might share the same mother.
'That woman looks exactly the same as mom' she thought as she unknowingly scribbled out her frustration on her notepad.
The teacher of the current period noticed her and called her out "CC Walker...are you alright back there?"
CC slowly came back to her sense as she noticed everyone in the classroom is looking at her. She then look at her teacher "I'm sorry. I wasn't feeling so well" she said apologetically.
"Do you want me to call your parents? You want them to pick you up?" The teacher asked as they walked closer to her desk.
"N-No it's okay. Can I go to the washroom? Please?" She asked for the teacher's permission and the teacher granted.
Slowly CC gets up from her chair and walked out of the class.
Ava raised her hand and that caught the teacher's attention "yes?" The teacher asked.
"Can I go to the washroom as well?" Ava asked as she smiled awkwardly.
"Oh whatever go. And also check on Ms.Walker" The teacher said.
Ava entered the washroom and checked every stalls are empty except for one "...CC?" She called.
"Leave me alone Ava" CC said as she curls on the toilet seat.
"Look...I know the truth aren't always beautiful. Maybe that woman is not even your mother. Maybe she could your mom's doppelgänger , I dunno" she said as she started to laugh try to lighten up the mood.
CC opened the door and hug her best friend "thanks...I hope that too...again thanks...for being here with me" she said.
"Anything for you CC...Anything for you" Ava said as she hugged back.
