Something Like Home

To help Benson, Laura wants to get more information from Brayan, but the teacher gets a phone call. Her aunt is at the school to pick her up early. Laura is confused.

When she reaches the main office, Silvia isn’t there. It’s her mom.

Laura rushes to Mom, crying with joy. She sobs and repeats “Mom” as they hug tightly. Laura finally feels loved and at home.

Mom laughs nervously and tells the office staff that Laura loves her so much she refers to her as “Mom.” Laura realizes she made a mistake again. She never should have revealed she was Mom, not Silvia. The secretary gets on the phone, but Mom rushes Laura toward the school exit.

The principal blocks their way. Unless Mom lets Laura go, he will call the police. She holds Laura tightly. Laura wants to go with her desperately, but she worries that Mom will get in more trouble. She thinks of Sparrow, Silvia, and Benson, unsure about her decision.

Recognizing Laura’s fear, Mom kisses her forehead and leaves. Laura is left crying.
