Clara bounced on the balls of her feet as she scrolled through the family tree generated by her results. This discovery was like finding a secret map to a hidden treasure. She ran her hand through her hair, a wide smile spreading across her face.

She decided to start with a phone call, but instead of the usual, she dialed her mother, and greeted her with a theatrical, “Greetings, Mother dearest! I have information of the utmost importance!”

She spent the whole day giggling and laughing, and baking cupcakes, decorating them with silly faces. This would be fun.
