Chapter 20 - Chapter 20 {Overjoyed}

"We'll work together, and we'll support each other every step of the way. We'll make sure that you're all prepared for the entrance exam, and we'll celebrate when you get into Oakwood Academy."

The triplets nodded, their eyes shining with excitement.

"We promise, Mama," they said in unison.

Catarina smiled, feeling a sense of pride and love for her children. She knew that she had to be strong for them, and she was determined to do everything she could to help them succeed.

As they continued their walk, Catarina's mind turned to the future. She knew that the next few weeks would be challenging, but she was confident that the triplets would rise to the occasion. She was proud of them, and she knew that they would make her proud.

When they returned home, Catarina suggested that they have a special dinner to celebrate the start of their journey. "We'll have your favorite meal," she said, smiling. "And we'll make it a special night to remember."

The triplets cheered, and Catarina set to work in the kitchen, preparing a delicious meal. As they ate, they talked about their hopes and dreams for the future. Catarina listened, smiling, and she knew that she was exactly where she was meant to be.

As the night drew to a close, Catarina hugged the triplets tightly.

"I'm so proud of you all," she said, her voice filled with emotion.

"I know that you're going to do great things, and I'm honored to be your mother."

The triplets hugged her back, and Catarina knew that she had given them the love and support they needed to succeed. She was confident that they would make her proud, and she couldn't wait to see what the future held for them.

As they said their goodnights, Catarina smiled, feeling a sense of peace and contentment. She knew that she had done everything she could to prepare the triplets for the challenges ahead, and she was confident that they would rise to the occasion.

With a happy heart, Catarina went to bed, knowing that she had given her children the best possible start in life. She was proud of them, and she knew that they would make her proud.

Catarina has been so busy helping the triplets get ready for their exam that's now tomorrow of course if they make it they would start next Monday. She hasn't seen her parents often when she heard them she poked her head out and she gently smiled.

"Mom, dad, I made soup have some," Catarina said sweetly, Candy and Michael heart warmed she isn't like our lazy sons!

As she drifted off to sleep, Catarina's mind wandered to the triplets and their upcoming exam. She felt a sense of calm wash over her, knowing that they were as prepared as they could be. She smiled to herself, thinking about how proud she was of them. Suddenly, she heard her parents' gentle murmurs of appreciation and gratitude from downstairs, and she felt a warmth in her heart. She knew that she had made them proud, and that was all that mattered.

As she fell asleep, Catarina's thoughts turned to the next day's exam. She visualized the triplets walking into the testing room, confident and prepared. She imagined them answering the questions with ease, their pencils moving swiftly across the paper. She pictured the looks of pride and satisfaction on their faces when they finished the exam, knowing they had done their best.

The next morning, Catarina woke up early, feeling refreshed and energized. She got dressed and headed downstairs to make breakfast for the triplets. As she was cooking, her parents joined her in the kitchen, chatting with her about the day ahead.

"Good luck to the triplets today, Catarina," her mother said, smiling.

"We're all rooting for them."

"Thanks, Mom," Catarina replied, smiling back.

"I'm sure they'll do great."

As they finished breakfast, the triplets came downstairs, looking a bit nervous but determined. Catarina gave them each a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"You got this, guys," she said, trying to sound confident.

With a final check of their bags and a quick review of the exam schedule, the triplets headed out the door with Catarina. As they walked to the testing site, Catarina couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and excitement. This was it – the moment they had all been working towards.

As they arrived at the testing site, Catarina could feel the triplets' nervous energy. She took a deep breath and reminded herself that they were prepared. She had done everything she could to help them, and now it was up to them to show what they were capable of.

"Okay, guys, remember to stay calm and focus," Catarina said, trying to sound calm herself.

"You've got this. Just take your time and answer the questions to the best of your ability."

The triplets nodded, taking a deep breath as they stood outside the testing room. Catarina gave them each a final hug and a kiss on the cheek.

"I'll be here when you're done," she said.

"Good luck!"

With that, the triplets took a deep breath and walked into the testing room. Catarina watched them go, feeling a mix of emotions. She was proud of them for making it this far, but she was also nervous about the outcome.

As she waited outside the testing room, Catarina couldn't help but think about the possibilities. If the triplets did well, they would be accepted into Oakwood Academy, and their lives would change forever. But if they didn't do well, they would have to try again next year.

Catarina pushed the thoughts aside and focused on the present moment. She took a deep breath and tried to calm her nerves. She knew that she had done everything she could to help the triplets, and now it was up to them to show what they were capable of.

As she waited, Catarina couldn't help but think about her own life. She had been so focused on helping the triplets that she had put her own life on hold. But now, as she stood outside the testing room, she realized that she had to start thinking about her own future.

What did she want to do with her life? What were her goals and dreams? Catarina didn't have the answers to these questions, but she knew that she had to start thinking about them. She couldn't just focus on the triplets forever.

As the minutes ticked by, Catarina's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the testing room door opening. The triplets walked out, looking relieved and exhausted. Catarina's heart swelled with pride as she saw the looks on their faces.

"How did it go?" she asked, trying to sound calm.

"It went well," they said, their voices filled with confidence.

Catarina's heart swelled with pride as she looked at the triplets. She could see the relief and exhaustion etched on their faces, but also a sense of accomplishment.

"I'm so proud of you all," she said, hugging them tightly. "You did it. You faced your fears and gave it your all."

The triplets hugged her back, smiling from ear to ear. "Thanks, Catarina," they said, their voices filled with gratitude. "We couldn't have done it without you."

Catarina smiled, feeling a sense of pride and satisfaction. She had done it. She had helped the triplets overcome their struggles and achieve their goal.

As they walked out of the testing center, Catarina couldn't help but feel a sense of hope and excitement for the future. She knew that the triplets still had a long way to go, but she also knew that they were capable of achieving great things.

The next few days were a blur of activity as Catarina and the triplets waited for the results of the exam. They tried to focus on their daily routines, but it was hard to concentrate when they were all so anxious to find out the results.

Finally, the day arrived when the results were due to be announced. Catarina and the triplets sat nervously in the living room, waiting for the phone to ring.

When it finally did, Catarina's heart skipped a beat. She picked up the phone, her hands shaking slightly as she answered it.

"Hello?" she said, her voice trembling slightly.

"Hello, Catarina," a voice said on the other end of the line.

"This is the admissions office at Oakwood Academy. We are pleased to inform you that the triplets have been accepted into our program."

Catarina's heart soared as she heard the news. She couldn't believe it. The triplets had done it. They had been accepted into Oakwood Academy.

She turned to the triplets, a huge smile on her face.

"You did it," she said, hugging them tightly.

"You're going to Oakwood Academy."

The triplets cheered, hugging each other and jumping up and down. They were overjoyed, and Catarina couldn't help but feel a sense of pride and satisfaction. She had done it. She had helped the triplets achieve their dream.
