I was using my powers to help with the ceremony for my primo Antonio when Abuela called for me and I told her to come where I was. As I was doing my job Abuela said, "Estelia, I have someone who I would like you to meet." That made me stop and look and it was my childhood friend that left years ago. "Julio?" He looked up and was shocked to see me and said, "Lia?" Abuela and Señora Manchez looked shock but when Señora Manchez looked at me closer and said, "Lia! You have grown so beautiful."

I smiled and looked at Julio and said, "Are you staying for Antonio's ceremony?" They nodded and I smiled at Julio and waved goodbye as I finished with my chores. They couldn't find Antonio and I saw Mira and we nodded and I headed to the nursery with her and we sat on her bed. She grabbed her present and I grabbed mine and Mira said, "This present is gonna destruct in 5..4..3..2..1." 

Antonio grabbed our presents and I smiled and we we under the bed and I said, "What's wrong Tonio?" He looked at me and Mira and said, "What if it doesn't work?" Mira said, "Well in that impossible scenario you still get to be with me in the nursery." I smiled and said, "But I promise you it will work and you will be right beside me and Isa." He smiled and Casita showed us it was time and we got out of under the bed.

We headed to the room and Tia Pepa and Tio Felix asked me to come with them to the room. Since I will be right beside him and they may or may not had made me the god mother of Antonio. I went with Tia and Tio up the stairs and saw Tonio standing there in fear and then Mirabel and I was proud of her.

Tonio got to his door and when he touched its bird was on his shoulder and spoke to him and I was so proud. The tiger gave him a ride then he whispered to it and the tiger roared and another came to me and gave me a ride and we partied. I was dancing and Julio came up from behind me and raised his hand to me. I accepted it and we danced to the night away till my sister came saying something and we all walked but I was confused the Abuela told us to go back to partying.

After the party Julio and Señora Manchez left and I smiled going to bed and have the night of my life.
