SOMETHING Katherine Esmeralda Cruz always dreamed of was to get out from the Heights. She wanted a successful life and career, so she's working hard in school to get there. But for now, Kat is working at her aunts' salon.
KATHERINE COULDN'T call Washington Heights her home. Maybe because she was white and not Latina enough. Her mom, Regina, was a remarkable and strong woman who grew up in the Heights. Her dad, Emanuel, was Bulgarian and moved to America when he was very young, his parents wanted him to have a good education and he was very thankful for that.
EMANUEL MET Regina back in college. Both never got married and didn't had the intention to. All they wanted was to have a small family and that's what they got. Kat was their whole world. She was their baby girl and nobody could change that. Until this car accident. When Katherine was 4 she lost her mom and was only left with her dad. No siblings at all. Her dad did a good job taking care of her but at some point it was too much. He lost his job and didn't have enough money to pay the bills. He just couldn't take care of his little girl any longer.
SO EMANUEL HAD to make a very hard decision and to leave his 5 year old child in the care of her mother's best friends. The salon ladies Carla, Daniela and Cuca. All three agreed to do it and were excited to watch the little girl grow up and to become a wonderful young woman like her mother. Katherine understood with the time that her dad couldn't take any care of her but he promised that as soon as he finds a job, he will continue to take care of her. But that took longer than she thought.
BUT KAT WASN'T always alone. She had three friends with her. Sonny de la Vega was her biggest supporter and protecter. He always looked out for her and tried to make her happy, something she really appreciated. When you looked at both you could clearly see sparks flying around them. But they always denied it. Silvia Garcia and Antonia Castillo never gave up on that relationship. Both were friends with Kat since kindergarten and could never give up on her. Even if she's begging them, they would never leave her side. They're the girls who are bringing out her bright and joyful side and everyone in the Barrio knew that. Even Abuela Claudia.
KAT AND SONNY ALWAYS denied their feelings for each other but people kept believing they were made for each other. And maybe that was true. They completed each other and were there when someone from them needed a hug or a deep night talk. Both created a Perfect Harmony. They just need time to realize that and that time is coming!
