Betrothed To The Mafia Boss

"Earth to Camila!" A bang on the table brought me back to reality.

I looked at my best friend Sonia and pass her a shy smile, I look around, luckily no one is looking our way.

"Did you heard a word of what I just said?" She asked.

I shake my head. She sighed and glared at me, I know why she's glaring at me.

Sonia hates to repeat her words, and the surprising part of it is that she loves talking a lot. I mean A LOT!.

"I know you didn't hear me, how many times will I tell you to stay out of your lala land in daytime?"

I didn't say anything, I just blink my eyes as she speaks.

"Will you say something?" She asked feeling frustrated.

"Ok, fine. I'm sorry, you were saying?"

She shake her head and take a sip from her milkshake.

"I said professor Gregory asked you to come see him tomorrow morning, before class" she said.

I nod.

"Ok" I replied.

I take a bite from my hamburger and begin to chew.

"Why does he want you to see him? Did you skip his class today?" Sonia asked me.

"No. I guess he just wants to remind me of his textbook, he's been bugging me to buy it"

"Hmm" she hummed.

My eyes move to the other side of the restaurant, and I lock gaze with a handsome guy.

Two other guys sits next to him, the two guys are chatting but he's just sitting quiet, furiously typing on his phone.

I don't know why....but I find his angry demeanor hot!.

He wore black jacket and black pants, his hair stylishly gel, which makes me wanna reach out and run my fingers through them.

His jaw clenched and eyes coated in anger. He's got the bad boy vibes, and I find myself loving it.

A finger snap in front of my eyes and I wake up from my wonder Land.

"Camila, why do you keep spacing out on me today?" Sonia asked, she placed her hands on her hips and an angry scorn on her face.

"I didn't space out" I defended myself.

She rolled her eyeballs.

"Yeah, right!"

My eyes move to the hot guy again.

This time he's already drop his phone on the table and he's looking at our direction.

When his gaze meets mine, he sends me a wink.

I blush. I use my hair to cover up the blush, but Sonia caught.

"Why are you blushing?" She asked.

"Nothing" I said, but my eyes move again.

Sonia follow my gaze and see that I'm staring at the hot guy.

She quickly move my face from there, and puts her chair in front of me, blocking my view of the hot guy.

"Don't tell he is the reason you're blushing" she said.

I just blush more.

"Camila, you can like any guy but him"

I frown a little.

"Why?" I ask her.

"Because he is bad news" she answered.

"Bad news? How did you know that?"

She sighs.

"Trust me, I know he is bad. He is not the type of guy you'd fall in love with, he's a heartbreaker" she told me.

I chuckled.

"Sonia, you've only been in this school for what, two weeks and you already know about him?" I asked.

"Yeah, I need to know the right circle of people to get tangled with. So please and please, promise me you'd stay away from that guy"

I roll my eyes.

" Fine. I promise you"

She lifts her pinky finger.

" Pinky swear?"

"What are you? Like five?"

"Do it, Camila" she said.

"Ok, ok. Pinky swear!" I cross my pinky with hers.

Just then her phone starts to ring. She glanced at the screen and stands up abruptly from her chair.

"Shoot! I'm late for work, Derek is so gonna kill me" she said.

I smack my forehead. Sonia always like to exaggerate things, she's not late at all, she just wanna put out some drama.

Just listen to this.

"Oh no! How many minutes late, Sonia?" I asked.

She checks her phone time.

"I only have 35minutes left" she replied.

See what I told you? She exaggerate things.

The walk from this restaurant to her work place is just ten minutes, so get still have 25minutes extra.

I take her hand in mine.

"Don't worry, sweet Sonia. You'll be the first person to enter heaven" I told her.

We both laughed. She picked up her purse from the table, I too did the same.

Then we stand up and head out, though not before placing our bill on the table.

Almost out of the restaurant, I unconsciously looked the hot guy's way, but he and his friends are no longer there.

I guess they're gone.

"So, I'll be going to work from here. You head home and rest, I'll tell Derek that you can't come in today, that you're.....sick?"

"Yes, please" I said.

I don't feel like going to work today, I'm on my period and I swear to God.

Me seeing my period is worse than a pregnant woman in labor, it hurts like hell.

"Okay, take care of yourself" she said.

"You too" she gives me a brief hug and walked off.

Just when I'm about to board a taxi, I heard the voice I dreaded most.

"Hey, Camila!"

Oh boy!

My gaze follow the hand to the guy's face.

I noticed he's that guy from the restaurant, I feel my heart skip and start to beat abnormally.

Looking at him up close, he looked more handsome. With his shape jawline, square face and gray eyes.

My gaze falters to his chest, his muscles bulging out and his athletic physique.

This are exactly my sperk.

He removes his hand from the handle of the taxi, and stands up straight to his full height, which I guess to be 6ft3.

His shadow towers over me, which makes my 5ft2 very short.

His gray eyes pierce into my brown ones, I see anger in his eyes and I almost cowers away from his intimidating look.

"Scram!" He said, his voice compliments his looks.

His voice is deep and sounds pleasing to the ear, I can listen to him talk all day without getting tired.

"I said scram!" He repeats.

I furrows my brows in confusion, then it clicked in my head that he's actually asking me to step away from the car.

"B-but.." I stop and cleared my throat. Why am I stuttering. "But I stopped the taxi first" I said.

"Really?"

"Yeah" I replied.

He smirked and turned back to his friends who I didn't notice where standing behind him.

"Did you hear that, guys?" He asked them, they all nod in affirmation.

He takes intimidating steps towards me, but I didn't step back, I stood my ground.

He leans towards me and brings his mouth closer to my ear.

"But I reached for the handle first, and if you know what is good for you, you'd find another taxi" he said in my ear.

He stands straight and head towards the taxi.

He reaches for the door but I hold his hand before he could.

"Let go of my hand if you wanna live" he ordered.

"Why should I let go? And let you go with the taxi? No, that's not gonna happen" I said.

His jaw clenched and his fist clenched so hard, he looked at me with his anger filled eyes.

He aggressively removed my hand and push me, I lost my balance and fall flat on my face. His friends begin to laugh, as I look around in embarrassment.

Humph! He is handsome but rude and arrogant.

"Now, let me make something clear to you. Don't ever cross my path in this school, cause if you do, I swear I'll make your life a living hell"

I wanted to give him my comeback but one of his friends beat me to it.

"Jason, don't be like that. The poor girl has a crush on you"

He growled lowly at his friend and he shut his mouth immediately.

I should be angry that he oppressed me and embarrassed me, but I'm not.

I find myself blushing at his friend's comment.

I slowly stand up from the ground with a smile on my lips, I dust off the dirt from my clothes.

Just when I'm about to walk away, from my perherial view. I see him looked at me with a disgusted expression.

"I'll never give someone like her my time, she's not my type" then he enters the taxi and the driver drives off.

His friends look at me mockingly and also walk away laughing.

I should be angry, but I told myself that maybe he behaved this way because he's angry.

I can't judge him with this, I'll still study him.

But I won't get close to him, since I already promised Sonia.

I stopped another taxi and head home.

The drive home wasn't a long one. I step into I and Sonia's apartment, inside is dark.

I turn on the lights and head to my room.

I take my bath and change into something else, then I head to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Later that evening....

I'm in the living room doing my literature assignment, I'm writing an essay.

And believe essay may seem so easy, but it's the hardest of all subjects to me, I hate writing essays.

Just when I'm almost done, the door open and Sonia walked in. She drops her backpack next to the couch and slopes on the down.

She lay back and groan tiredly, massaging her shoulders.

I laughed.

"Ok, I know that expression. The cafe was packed today" I said.

"Hmm" she hummed.

"I would have said sorry, but my pain is far worse. My period is killing me" I told her.

She doesn't say anything, she simply stands up and strode to the kitchen.

"What did you cook?" She asked.

"Rice and mushrooms stew" I answered.

She grin and gives me a bear hug.

" Ohoo! You know me so well, Camila" she said.

I nod and pat her back gently.

"Of course! Mummy knows what's best for you. Now be a good girl, go to your room freshen up and come back for dinner" I said with a sickening smile.

She pouts, batting her eyelashes, then finally nod and rushed to her room.

I dish the food and placed them on the dinning table, I sit down and wait for Sonia to come back.

Not up to five minutes, Sonia comes back and sits opposite me. Then we begin to eat.

"Sonia, Jayden invited us to his boyfriend's birthday party tomorrow"

Sonia dropped her spoon and look at me in surprise.

"Boyfriend? I thought they already broke up" she said.

"He's moved on already from that Jayden to another Jayden" I said.

She laughed and choke on her food. I quickly pass her a glass of water, she takes few gulps and she's okay.

"Wow! I'm so curious now, I want to know how this Jayden look like" she said.

Just then my phone rings. I picked it up from the table and see it's my mom calling.

I press the answer button and bring the phone closer to my ear.

"Hi Mom!" I chirped happily.

Since I got admitted in this university, today is the first day I'm hearing from my Mom.

"How is my baby girl doing?" She asks.

"I'm good. How is you and dad doing over there?"

"We're fine....but..." She trails off and then it was silence.

" Mom?" I called, she doesn't answer me. But I can hear shuffling, like she's walking around.

Then I hear she and dad talking in hushed voices. What are they talking about?

"Mom?" I called again, and this time she answered.

"Camila, dear. We want you to come home tomorrow, can you that?" She asks.

I furrow my brows.

" Why? Is everything alright?"

She laughed nervously.

"Yes, everything is fine. We just have something to discuss with you and we can't talk about it in phone" she said.

I nod, then I remembered that she can't see me.

"Ok" I replied.

"Good. Take care of yourself" then she hang up.

I wonder what they want to discuss with me. Mom sounds nervous.....Hmmm tomorrow I'll know why she's so nervous.

Jason's POV

I was in the restaurant eating with my friends when I got a text from my dad, asking me to come home.

I text him back that i wasn't gonna come, but he said something that set me off.

So I board the first taxi I saw and head straight home.

That stupid girl almost delayed my trip back home, she's lucky I didn't have the time to teach her a lesson.

She should pray to heaven that we should never cross paths again.

It's 7:15pm and I just arrived at my parents mansion. I ring the doorbell and waited for a few minutes, before my Mom open the door.

A smile spread on my face when she sees me and quickly pull me to herself.

"Oh, my baby boy! I missed you" she said.

"Mom, I only went back to school just few weeks again" I told her.

She freed me from her tight grip and smacked the back of my head.

"Ow!"

"Even if you left few weeks ago, it feels like forever!" She said.

I raised my head in surrender and she laughed.

"Come on in. Your dad's waiting for you in his office" she said.

My face goes blank.

"I'll join you guys later, let me get some snacks" she head toward the kitchen.

I simply nod, I step into the house and head upstairs to my dad's office.

I knocked on the door and hear dad say 'come in'. I open the door and enter in.

My dad sits in front of the TV in his office, watching the news. I walk straight to him and sit opposite him.

"Good evening, dad" I greets him.

He look away from the TV and face me.

"You're here. Have you been watching the news lately?" He asked.

I didn't say anything, I just kept quiet.

The thing is, my dad and I have never had that close father and son relationship.

And I don't give a damn.

"You're all over the news, Jason" he said.

"Dad, don't start"

" Oh?" He raises his eyebrows. "Why won't I? Are you afraid to hear truth?" He asked.

I scoffed.

"What truth?"

"So you don't even know the truth about you. Everytime I listen to the news these days, they're either talking about how you're whoring about, or about how you destroy different hotels properties"

I clenched my jaw and stand up from the sofa.

"I'm not whoring about, dad. I have every right to enjoy my life anyhow I want it" I said, I'm starting to get angry now.

I'm tired of my dad controlling my life, telling me what to do and what not to do. I wanna live my life as a carefree guy.

Dad laughed sarcastically.

"Right! I wonder how you'll keep our empire at the top with this behavior of yours" he said.

Ha. As if I care about his empire.

"I don't want your company, I don't want anything to do with it" I replied.

"You.... " He raised his hand to hit me, but Mom small hands stopped him.

I guess we're too engrossed in our argument that none of us notice my Mom come in.

My dad look at my mom, taking deep breaths, as if to calm himself down.

I rolled my eyes. His father of the year act is getting more boring with each breaking day.

"Markus, calm down" Mom said to him calmly.

"How can I calm down, this boy is getting me crazy!"

"I know. But let's sit down and talk like adults, please"

It was silence for a moment, then my dad slowly sits down. But anger is still clearly on his face.

After dad sit down, Mom turned to me and glared at me angrily.

"Jason! You shouldn't talk to your dad rudely"

"Is he really my dad?" I asked.

That infuriated him.

" Do you hear that?" He asked Mom.

"Jason!" Mom called me. From the tone of her voice I can tell that I am starting to offend her.

I sigh and sit down grumpily.

"Fine. Let's cut to the chase, why did you ask me to come home?"

Mom gives dad a cup of coffee, then she turns to me with a smile.

"Well... Jason, you know you are not getting younger. You're the heir to your father's empire, and with this lifestyle you are living, our board of directors and sponsors won't take you seriously. So your dad and I have come up with an idea that will make them value you" she said.

I look at her impatiently, I want her to tell me whatever nonsense idea they have come up with.

She looked at my dad, telling him to continue.

"Son...."

"Don't call me that" I interrupt him.

He pretends like he didn't hear me, then he continues.

"We have decided that you'll get married before you inherit the empire" he said.

" What??!"

What do they mean get married? I'm still at my peak and I still want to enjoy my life as a bachelor.

I'm far from ready to settle down, infact, I didn't plan on getting married for another 6years.

"And we have found the perfect girl for you" Mom said.

"No! I'm not gonna get married to someone I don't know!"

Mom smiled.

"I know, hon. That's why we arranged your marriage since you were a kid, the girl you're getting married to is your childhood friend" Mom explain.

My childhood friend? I never had any friends when I was growing up as a kid.

I was always a loner in my childhood.

"Why would you arrange my marriage since I was a child?" I asked angrily.

"Because you asked us to" dad said.

"When the fuck was that? How come I don't remember?"

"Honey, it all happened when you were a kid. You always talked about how much you want to marry her, and you were so happy when we engaged you two" Mom explained.

I couldn't say anything. I just looked at them as if they are crazy.

"Tomorrow, you are coming with us to pay her and her family a visit. Also so that you two can see each other" dad said.

I stand up from the sofa.

"I'm not going!" I told him.

He simply laughed and wiped his eyeglasses.

"Well, you don't have a choice" he said.

"Of course, I do. I own my life" I challenge him.

"Not anymore. If you don't come with us, I'll deactivate your credit card and deny you access to all of your accounts" he threatened me.

I frown and pumped my fist. I grind my teeth against each other and breath heavily.

So he wants to force me into marrying someone, hmm, I'll grant him his wish.

I'll give the girl a wrong impression and she'll call off the engagement on her own will.

"Fine! I'll go with you" I said through gritt teeth.

Then I angrily head towards the door. Just when I hold the handle, Mom asked.

"Where are you going, Jason?"

"Back to my penthouse!" I answered without turning back.

"But it's already late and it's two hours drive back to your penthouse" she said.

" I'll be fine, Mom. Good night!" I didn't wait for her reply, I open the door and left angrily.

I'm gonna break another poor girl's heart tomorrow. Well it's not my fault.

Camila

The next morning....

"Mom! I'm home!" I called as I step into my parents home.

Our home is small but warm and homely, no matter where I go, no matter how fancy my life is there, I always long to come back home.

Mom rushed out with dad following closely behind her. She pulled me in for a tight bear hug.

"My baby is finally back!" She kissed my cheek.

"How are you doing kiddo?" Dad asked me patting my back.

"I'm fine dad, how are you? Is your back still aching?" I ask.

My dad shakes his head and jump to prove how good his waist his.

You see, my dad was a stroke patient.

So we restrain him from doing hard work, to prevent him from having waist pain.

"I'm very strong kiddo, all thanks to your Mom" he said.

I smiled and embrace Mom one more time.

" Alright, let's go inside" Mom said.

We all head inside. I dropped my small bag on the table and take off my jacket.

Mom and dad sit on the chair opposite me.

"Have you eaten this morning, Camila?" Mom asked me.

"Yes. I ate some pancakes before I came" I replied.

"Good. Health is our top priority" dad said.

I look at them curiously, wondering why they sent for me.

" Dad, Mom. What is it that you wanted to discuss with me?" I ask them.

Mom and dad exchange looks, them dad laughs nervously. Mom shift on her spot.

Their reaction and expression is making me feel uneasy.

I wonder what they wanted to say that is troubling them this much.

"Camila, do you remember Jason?" Mom asked.

"Jason?" I asked.

"Yes" she replies.

Then it strikes me. Jason was my childhood friend and we've been engaged since childhood.

But he traveled after our engagement, the only memory of us I have is how we enjoyed playing under the rain and how much we love building sand houses on the beach.

"Yes, I remember him" I said.

I see mom play with her fingers and she only does that when she is nervous.

Dad rub her back and gives her an encouraging smile.

"Well, we've come to a conclusion that since you're both at the right age for marriage, we'll make it official" she said.

She studies my expression, I guess she's trying to see if I'm surprised or not.

But I'm not surprised, I've always known that this day would come.

I mentally smacked my head.

I have forgotten so soon that I'm engaged, I'm thinking of another guy already.

"What do you say, Camila?" Dad asked.

I put on a smile on my face and nod.

"It's fine by me" I replied.

Mom looked at me shocked.

"Really?!" She asked.

"Yes. We've already been engaged since childhood, so marriage is expected"

I see mom and dad released a long sigh.

" Thank God for your open mind" dad said.

I sigh. I guess I'll never see that guy from the restaurant ever again.

My poor heart will just have to accept my childhood husband.

But I really wish I could have a chance with that Greek god from the restaurant.

Camila

The Clinton's resident...

Later in the evening. I walked out of my bathroom with my pajamas already on, I climbed onto my bed and cover myself with my blanket.

I looked at the small alarm clock on my nightstand, it's 7:20pm.

I'm still at my parent's residence.

Mom insisted I stayed here until tomorrow, when Jason and his parents would come.

I hardly have memories of Jason and I when we were still kids, I wonder if he'll even remember my name.

Right at that moment, a knock on my door brings me back to reality.

The door open and my mom step in, her usual gentle smile on her face.

I quickly sit up right.

"Darling, you didn't come down for dinner. Are you not hungry?" She asks.

I shake my head, no.

She sits on the edge of my bed and lean forward, a small frown on her face as she examine my temperature with the back of her palm.

"You don't have a fever, so why aren't you hungry" she wonders.

I remove her hand and pass her a smile.

"I didn't wanna eat cause I'm on diet, I don't wanna get fat, you know"

My mom looked at me with narrowed eyes, she starts to look at me all over, measuring my arm with her palm.

"Mom, what are you doing?" I asked.

She placed her hands on her waist and stands up.

"Young lady, have you seen yourself in the mirror lately? You are so thin, I fear you have any weight" she said.

"Mom.... "

She raised her hand and stop me.

"If you continue going on diet Jason will hardly recognize you cause you'll have no flesh left in you, you'll be as tiny as a mosquito and I'll..... "

I stand up from my bed and move closer to her. I place my hand on her shoulder.

"Mom" I interrupt her. She looks at me in a disapproving way. "I promise I'll stop my diet as from tomorrow"

"You better. I don't want Jason and his parents to think we're too poor to feed our daughter" she said.

I nod and smile. She sighed softly.

"Now I want you to go to bed early, so that your face will bright up tomorrow and your beauty will glow. The Lawrenceville will know that my daughter is the most beautiful of all God's creations" Mom said.

I rolled my eyes. Sometimes I wonder if Sonia is my long Lost sister, cause honestly she and my Mom are very much alike.

They like exaggerating things.

She leads me back to my bed and tucked me in.

Her tucking me in, brings back my childhood memories.

I always used to get scared when it's dark, so then Mom used to tuck me in and sing for me until I fall asleep.

I'm still scared of the dark now, but since I'm kinda grown-up now, I sometimes listen to music on my headset or I sing until I'm tired, then I'll fall asleep.

"Ok, darling. I'll let you get some sleep"

I nod. Mom leans down and place a kiss on my forehead and I giggled.

"Good night, baby. Don't forget to say your prayers!" She said.

"Yeah, good night, Mom" I replied.

She head towards the door and step out. I was selecting a song to listen to on my phone, when my laptop suddenly starts to beep.

I drop my phone and reach for my laptop. I put it on my lap and see it's Sonia facetiming me.

I quickly answer her, even though I know I'm gonna get an earful from her.

"Hi, Sonia!" I said cheerfully.

"Don't you 'hi Sonia' me! I told you to call me immediately you arrived but you didn't, is that how a good friend behaves? Wait.... Don't tell me you're just arriving, did you stop elsewhere? For God's sake why are you not saying anything?!"

I chuckled at her questions.

"You haven't given me the chance to say something" I told her.

She sneered. Then turned to someone behind her, I can only see the person's pants so I couldn't tell who it is.

Then she adjust and the person squatted, that's when I know it's Jayden.

I frown. What is he doing at our apartment at this time of the night?.

"Hey, Camila! I heard you went home, how is your trip?" He asked.

"It's fine?" I replied him.

I turned my gaze to Sonia and give her a questioning look.

"So, remember Jayden invited us to his boyfriend's birthday party" Sonia said.

I nod my head for her to continue.

"So, they're kinda having the party at our apartment since you're not here, and I said I can't leave the apartment alone" she explained.

Hmm. It's a good explanation, right?.

Just at that moment, a guy jumps into the view, a big boyish grin on his face.

He's got blonde hair and blue eyes like Barbie Ken doll.

"Hi, there" he waved at me.

"Hi, I guess you're Cameron" he nods. "But I'll call you Ken. Anyway, happy birthday. Sorry I couldn't celebrate with you in person" I said.

He simply smiles and wave it off.

"Oh, please. I'm happy I get to see your face on my birthday" he said then he winks at me.

Hmm. He sure knows how to flirt for a gay.

Sonia moved her laptop from them and start to chase them away.

"That is enough. I want to have a girl's talk with Camila"

"Sweetie, I'm gay" Jayden told her.

"So?" She asked him with a daring glare.

"So you can say anything in front of me, duh!" He said as if it's the most obvious thing.

I see Sonia pick up something, but before she could hit Jayden with it, he's already gone.

She eyes the direction he runs off to for some seconds, then she finally turns to me.

I laugh at their cute fight. But when she sends me a glare, I shut my mouth.

"So, Camila. Why did your parents asked you to come?" She asks me.

I sigh and pinch the bridge of my nose.

"Well, you know I'm engaged, right?"

"Yeah, I know. Are they calling off the engagement?" She asked me back.

"No"

She raised her eyebrows, urging me to continue. I cleared my throat.

"I'm getting married" I told her.

She doesn't say anything.

She just stays silent, looking at me blankly.

I guess she is wondering why my parents decided to get us married now, truthfully, I'm also wondering it.

After a long moment of silence she said.

"Well, it's a good thing. Now you won't have to dream about that notorious Playboy and heartbreaker"

"Sonia!"

"What? Even though I don't know who Jason is, or how he looks like, I prefer him to that player. So I'm happy for you" she told me.

It's true that Sonia doesn't know Jason, because Sonia moved to our neighborhood the month Jason and his family travelled.

And also I think I should be happy that I'm getting married to my childhood sweetheart.

It will save me from getting my heart broken by 'my Greek god'.

I yawned sleepily.

I really need to get some sleep, the trip back home was tiring. I spent three hours on the bus.

"Sonia I'll have to call it a night. I'm feeling pretty tired"

" Oh, ok. I'll see you tomorrow?"

" Yeah. Good night"

" Good night and dream about Jason" she said and wink at me.

"I wish I can even remember his face" I muttered under my breath.

I shut down my laptop, put it back on the nightstand.

Then I cover myself with my duvet and fall into the lala land.

The next morning.....

I'm in my room getting ready to go downstairs, though my mom has long woken up to prepare breakfast and some snacks awaiting the Lawrencevilles.

I wore a tank top and a high waist short skirt, though it's not too short, it stopped at my mid thigh.

I think I should apply a little make-up, but first I need to check out myself in the mirror.

I stand in front of the mirror. I look beautiful the way I am, it's better I go with my natural look than to apply some artificial beauty to my appearance.

After making up can be hard work.

"Camila! Come down here, Jason and his parents are here!" I heard my mom called from the living room.

"Coming Mom!" I replied.

I check the clock in my room, it's 9:18am. They are quite early, I thought they wouldn't be here until at it's noon time.

I looked down and noticed my hands are shaking, I'm suddenly feeling nervous. Why is that?

It's not as if Jason is some kind of monster that's gonna attack me the moment he sees me?

I mustered up enough courage and head downstairs. I meet my parents standing by the door, talking and laughing with an elderly man and woman.

They seem to be exchanging pleasantries, I guess they are happy to see each other again after a long time apart.

I head towards them, putting on a smile on my face.

"This must be Camila" the lady said immediately she sees me heading toward them.

"Yes. This is our daughter" Mom replied.
