"You are nothing without me, Catra!"

"Oh yea?! You wanna bet?"

18 year old Catra stuffed all her clothes in a trash bag as quickly as she could. Camille stood by the door, "And where could you possibly go?!"

"Not here that's for sure."

"Oh so you're just going to live off in the streets?!" Catra finished packing her things and headed out the bedroom door,

"If that's what it takes to get away from you."

Camille, out of frustration, grabbed Catra's hand, "MY GOD CATRA DO YOU HEAR YOURSELF?! I AM YOUR MOTHER-"

Catra cut her off as she stood in front of her face, "NO! YOU LOST THAT PRIVILEGE THE MINUTE THOSE WORDS CAME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH!" She then pulled her hand out of Camille's and headed for the door. Once Catra was on the sidewalk, Camille stood at the door. "FINE! NO ESPERES QUE TE BUSQUE!"

Catra looked at her so called mother and glared, "That's the plan."

———

Now six years later, 23 year old Catra stood face to face with the woman she used to call 'mom'...until now..

"...What are you doing here?"

Camille smiled a bit, "..Isnt it obvious? I came to find you.." Catra looked at her and glared a bit, "...How did you even find me?" Camille looked at the girl, "Adora..told me where you work."

Of course she did.

Catra scoffed a bit, "How ironic..Its been six years and you're just looking for me now." Camille felt pain struck through her as she dared to come closer to her daughter. "Mija...I'm so so so sorry. I know I've said really awful things.." Camille raised her hand a bit to get closer to Catra's, only for Catra to hold her hand close to her chest. Camille stared up at Catra, worried.

"You never wanted to see me again..Do you know how much it hurt to hear those words come out of your mouth? Along with those awful things you said just because someone loves who they love?" Catra's voice cracked a bit as she dared not to cry. Catra has always been known to be strong, never to cry...but this..this was going to slowly burn her bridges down.

"Catra...I-I thought the worst when you told me and it wasn't right..I was clueless and I never knew I would be related to someone part of the community-"

"Admit it...you're ashamed of me." Catra cut her off as tears sting her eyes. Camille saw the pain in her daughter's eyes. The pain she had kept in for years. "I'll admit I was.." Camille said laying all the cards on the table. She knew Catra needed to know the truth.

....However, Catra broke.

"But...why? Soy tu hija.." Catra choked up a bit. Camille felt tears sting her eyes as well as her chest squeeze up a bit, "I know..and you will always be my daughter, Catra." That's when Camille approached Catra closer and grabbed her hand. "You can hate me all you want for what happened six years ago, Ill respect that...but I'm always going to be by your side no matter what. I've tried educating myself ever since you left because I feel so awful about what I had said to you and in front of you..But no matter what I'm willing to change for the better.." Camille then choked up a bit as well. "Porque eres mi mundo...y te extrañé tanto..te amo mucho..estoy tan orgullosa de ti..mi hija."
