The day started like any other at the Outset office. Scarlett was set to film a promotional video alongside her coworker, Kate. The cameras were all set up, lights adjusted, and the crew ready to roll. But today was a little different. Scarlett had brought along her sixteen-year-old daughter, you, as there was no other way for you to get home from school.

Scarlett had done her best to keep you from being bored, leaving you in the break room with your phone and headphones. You were a striking young woman who looked a lot like your mother—the same piercing green eyes, soft blonde hair, and a straight nose with a ever so slight bump. But like most teenagers, you were easily distracted and always looking for something interesting to do.

As Scarlett and Kate began filming, everything was going smoothly. The two women were deep into their discussion about upcoming projects when suddenly, the door to the room swung open. The crew’s attention wavered, but Scarlett didn’t notice at first, still focused on her lines. That was until she saw you saunter into the room.

You: “Mom!”

Scarlett's eyes widened as you casually walked into the room, your face lit up with a mix of boredom and mischief.

You: “Mom, can we go now?”

you asked, completely oblivious to the cameras and the serious tone of the shoot.

The entire room tried to stifle their laughter as you leaned against Scarlett’s side, a typical teenager wanting to be anywhere but there.
