Camilla's POV

“What! Why are you looking like me?” a gasp escaped my mouth looking at the lady, who looked just like me in front of me.

“That should be my question, why are you looking like me, woman?” the lady questioned, and my eyes widened in surprise when I understood what was going on.

A doppelganger?

A doppelganger was the best bet because the lady in front of me looked so much like me, and my mind went back to what happened this early morning before I encountered this scenario.

The sound of loud music blasted through my room as I swayed my hips to the beat while singing along, and also getting dressed to go out.

That was my routine while growing up, because I dreamt of also being a superstar one day, and people listened to my songs, but I stopped dancing immediately when I noticed that the music had gone off.

“Snap out of it, Camilla!” I heard my mother scream, and I felt a slap on my butt. I groaned in pain as I turned to face my mother, and her angry face got me smiling so wide.

“Why are you so angry, mother?” I asked her to pour my lips, but she snorted. My mother is a disciplinarian, and that was why she hated my job at the local bar but that was the only way I could do what I love while I still get my big dreams.

“How dare you ask me that? Don't you think you should have gotten the linen to sew right now?” she asked, and my eyes widened in realization knowing that was true.

“Oh sorry Mother, I am going to go now,” I say rushing up my dress, and I heard her instruct me to go to the mall because her supplier doesn't have the one she needed.

After getting dressed, I kissed my mother goodbye as I walked out of the house, and walked to the mall to get some things. On getting to the mall I decided to go to the fabrics session, but my steps halted in front of the female section where luxury wear which I couldn't afford was displayed, and I eyed the clothes.

“The clothes are looking so pretty," I mumbled looking at the clothes on my body, and I turned around to leave. “I am definitely going to come back here again if I have the money one day, maybe if I have Rihanna kind of money,” I beamed, and a blush crept up to my face.

I decided to walk away but on second thought, I strode into the place. I don't have to buy anything just because I walk, I just need to take a look at the clothes. I am not fashionable but I am sure the clothes there would cost a fortune.

“Hi ma'am welcome to..” the attendant was about to greet but I asked her not to bother saying I am going to call for her. “$3,000! That's huge!” I said dropping the tag of the clothes I was holding, and when I raised my head I was surprised by the sight.
