Chapter Text
PREQUEL
Elizabeth and Charles had only one thing in common with Kathleen, that they were triplets. Aside from that, they were as different as night and day. They were quite handsome, with blue eyes, golden blonde hair and a slender physique. You would think that bieng triplets and equally handsome for the girls they both would have quite a few admirers but in reality Betty didn´t have any and Katy had more than a few.
You see Katy since she could tell what the emotion of jealousy was took it upon herself to make Betty misarable and to make herself the better triplet; Katy didn´t like being a triplet, she didn´t like to share the spotlight so naturally she disliked her brother and sister but mostly Betty since she was a girl, so she spread rumors around their friends and school to make Betty seem like a loser or sometimes she resorted to bullying and threatning people to not talk to or befriend Betty. Katy was all that you could imagine, she was beautiful, vengeful, straight A student (do to her mother’s pestering), she was a modern dancer (and very good at it), all in all she was the perfect girl next door well except for the meaness.
Betty knew that her sister didn´t like her, she just didn´t know why. Eventhough she knew her sister was the one spreading rumors she didn´t tell her mother, there was no use. Her mother prefered Kathy and Betty was actually fine with that. Betty was a quiet girl who sometimes lived in her own world so the lack of friend didn´t bother her one bit. Betty enjoyed reading, playing the violin (her mothers insistance since she was little), and she also enjoyed ballet (also her mother’s idea) and of course spending time with her favorite triplet Charles. Betty was also Smart and her grades showed it but she wasn’t as outgoing as her sister, she didn´t like parties or public speaking so sometimes people thought she was weird or the dumber triplet.
Charles was the perfect son, Smart, outgoing, star athlete and a black belt in karate along with other talents; but like Betty he too was a little reserved when it came to speaking and he spent a lot of time with Betty. Charles had a secret that only Betty and him knew and he feared that his mom would find out and be against it.
Alice the triplets mother, had this idea that if she portrayed the perfect family that she had with her triplets than she could relish and live the life she didn´t have the chance to have. So that´s why she drove the girls and their brother so hard to have so many talents and to seem perfect.
So to anyone who viewed this family from the outside, they really did look the part of perfect, but you will soon see that not everything is as it seems…
