Y/n's POV

As the times goes by the number of townspeople is slowly increasing also wanting to watch Antonio's ceremony.

I saw Mariano, his mother and my family on one of the corner so walk to them.

Mariano's mother fixing his hair while my brother started eating some foods they prepared for tonight.

"Look who's here, my little sister" Matéo said ruffling my hair, I immediately slap his hand out of my head glaring at him.

"Stop doing that, I'm not a kid anymore"

"I already know that but still you're my little sister forever" he said giggling stuffing more dishes into his mouth.

"How's Dolores, hija?" My mamá asked, she knows between the two of us and she's okay with it.

"She's helping to find Antonio" she nooded and talk to one of her friend.

Looking at my cousin beside me staring on the person to the other side of the house. I slowly look where he is looking and it's Isabela.

Sometimes I wonder if he truly like or love Isabela to agreed on that kind of engagement thing.

"Say Mariano, do you happen to like Isabela for doing the proposal thing" I said still looking at Isabela using her gift on giving flower to the kids.

This catches Mariano attention and turn to me, he think for a moment before answering "Isabela looks nice and she seem fun, I don't have any problem on Marrying her"

"Still you didn't answer my question. Do you like her?" I asked now facing him seriously, he avoided my eye contact now looking somewhere.

But before be could answer someone goes between us, turning our attention infront and facing her.

I slowly walk near Dolores when she give me a soft smile, slightly hugging her from the side.

"Come on, the ceremony will start soon" she said tugging me.

"We're going now" I look to Mariano she just nod in understanding before looking at Dolores giving a small smile, looking flushed.

We then went near the stairs where Antonio's door is, I saw Dolores cheek slightly red so I move her closer to me hugging her waist.

After some minute people started to crowd making a path so Antonio can walk there, her mother and father at the door while me, Dolores, Camilo and her cousin joining us later on.

Isabela stand on the other side of Dolores, I lock eyes with her for a moment before looking away. Abuela alma started talking infront on the stairscase.

"Fifty years ago, in our darkest moment, this candle blessed us with a miracle..." Abuela alma stated, music playing everywhere, people listening to her intently.

I noticed Dolores leaning her head on my shoulder making me look at her, seeing her also listening to what her Abuela is saying making me smile. Must protect this girl.

The curtain finally open revealing Antonio, he stood the for moment reaching someone behind the cover then Mirabel take his hand.

They walk until reaching the stairs. Antonio is now holding the candle then went infront of his door reaching the handle before twisting it.

The crowd started to cheer and yell when they saw the image slowly forming in Antonio's door, the fireworks starts popping to the night sky.

I noticed that it's getting louder and louder, I look at Dolores helping her covering her ears, she turned to me smiling.

She mouthed a 'thank you' before looking up where Antonio is. Hugging her from behind slightly.

When the loud sound started to died down she tugged me upstairs to Antonio's room which I followed.

On the way there I bumped to other people we walk on, there's this time when I also bumped into her cousin, Isabela and Mirabel.

Saying sorry afterwards, I can see the smile on Dolores face, making my heart flutter but not the way it feels before.

Her Abuela calls the Familia Madrigal for their family picture together since they got another blessings in their family.

Dolores went to join them leaving me behind with others, they all look happy but someone's missing.

Isabela's POV

Abuela invited us for a family which we joined, standing and smiling in front of the camera, we did our own poses.

Throwing flower up in the air before looking ahead until I caught my eyes on someone.

I hold eye contact with y/n, I saw her lips lifting upward towards me, well she's looking at me so it's supposed to be me right.

I swear her smile looks really sweet and gorgeous, especially how caring she was when taking care of my cousin Dolores.

Wait, what am I thinking. She already have a girlfriend and that's my cousin and I'm already engaged to someone, sadly.

I don't want to marry him, I don't even like him and will never like him, hell I don't even like a guy.

I broke the contact with her when they already done taking picture, I saw Dolores went to y/n's side before hugging her.

I look somewhere when y/n noticed me looking to the both of them. Taking my attention somewhere.
