3 in a half year old, Mirabel was sleeping on her warm bed in the nursery, when she heard knocking on the door. Who would come this late at night, she thought as she grabbed her glasses and went downstairs, but walked down, quietly, so she doesn't wake anybody.
She finally made it to the door and opened it and saw Elena, she was curious why the girl would come this late at night.
"H-Hola...", Elena greeted shyly and waved, Mirabel smiled at the gesture "Hola, I'm Mirabel Madrigel (babytalk), are you new, what brings you to Casita?".
"I'm E-Elena C-Cortez, is this the Encanto?", the little short haired girl asked.
"Si, it is, can we help you, are your parents around?", Mirabel asked kindly.
Elena, then started to cry, thinking about her mami and the village, and heartbrokenly remembered the terrifying screams, that was the last breath of her mami and the village.
"My mami and my home, Holinda, Tolema (Babytalk translation: Tolima) is gone....mean men...", the whining girl announced as Mirabel rushed over to pat the weeping girl's back, while her heart dropped. "Hey, hey, it's okay?", she asked gently.
Then she noticed Elena's knee was bruised very badly, Mirabel felt completely bad for the girl, she could imagine how deeply hurt, she would feel if something bad happened to hurt her family.
"Hey, if you want you can come inside, my family would gladly help you?, she smiled and gestured her hands for Elena to follow her.
"O-okay.", Elena stuttered, but smiled a little, and took Mirabel's hand, and she led her inside Casita.
As Elena was walking with Mirabel, she looked around the house as she relished in the scenery and looked at the golden doors of Mirabel's family.
Why are all those doors glowing, she thought in amazement as Mirabel led her upstairs to her mami's room.
Elena looked at the magical door in awe as it had many intriguing details, and the name, Julieta engraved at the top.
Mirabel knocked on the door and then looked back at Elena "Don't worry, my mama will help, and she's very sweet.", she reassured.
After waiting a few minutes, Juileta, Mirabel's mother came from the door, and looked at Mirabel "Corazón, what are you doing, this late at night, and who's your friend?", she asked softly.
Mirabel introduced Elena and told her mami, and Elena explained the situation was in. Julieta's eyes softened as she looked at the poor innocent little girl and the bruise on her knee"Oh you poor thing, come with me, I'll make you some nice warm arepas." Julieta said as she guided Elena to the kitchen as Mirabel followed.
Julieta started cooking her arepas and Mirabel was comforting Elena at the table, making her smile a bit.
Once, Julieta was finished cooking, and finally served Elena, an arepa, and even gave Mirabel one as a late night snack.
Elena put the fresh arepa in her mouth, and her eyes widen with delight at how delicious it was, and chewed it all up, Mirabel and Julieta looked at her in surprise.
Elena realized what she was doing and stopped eating, "I'm s-sarry (Babytalk translation: sorry).", she said as she looked down at her feet.
