⋅ʚ-❁ 5: Bruno

I wake up to the sounds of the silence that allows
For my mind to run around with my ear up to the ground
I'm searching to behold the stories that are told
When my back is to the world that was smiling when I turned

Tell you you're the greatest
But once you turn they hate usOh, the misery
Everybody wants to be my enemy
Spare the sympathy
Everybody wants to be my enemy

"ꜱᴀʟᴛ ʜᴇʀᴇ, ꜱᴀʟᴛ ᴛʜᴇʀᴇ."
Bruno took one last step and sighed when it was finally done.

His Ma had drawn him aside to look into Y/N's future.

"She's still sick," she said, "it looks like there's no chance of her recovering, but Alejandro went out to look for any doctor willing to help. Look into her future, please, she's one of us now so I can't help but feel concerned for her. How will Y/N take it if she...if she..."

After all the terrible prophecies he'd made, he couldn't help but feel...well, hesitant about making another one- for a young girl like her as well. He didn't want to hurt anyone, sometimes he thought he was better off with another gift. Truth be told, he'd rather not worry about the future since what will come, will come, but they insisted, they always insisted.

"It is never your fault, mi amor." Lucía told him, quickly earning a blush from him.
"I know but-"

"No buts, nothing will ever make you a desgracias. How would that be possible? You're part of the Madrigals, Cariño, you're part of the miracle and nothing will ever change that." 

He often wondered why she would stay- for someone like him that is. She could stay in the town and all and the Casita loves her so it wasn't his intention to say she wasn't welcome or anything-

He was getting off track.

The point is, she was amazing and deserved better than him.
Still, after he pointed that out many times, she laughed and kiss his cheek with her usual lovely smile. It never failed to warm his heart that even when everyone started to avoid him, she was there to listen to his telenovelas.

And he would never be anything less to her. 

"Here it goes." He decided to look into Y/N's Ma, Alicia's future first.

His eyes glowed green, and the salt whirled like dust cloud around him, but he saw nothing. No images, no sounds, no anything.

Confused, he tried again only to see the same pitch black nothingness.

"Ay, I'm almost out of salt."

Finally, he decided to look into Y/N's future, maybe then he could finally see something about Alicia.

There was a cowering Y/N.
A hand falling like a branch off a tree.
A ship sinking.

And three gravestones.

Oh no.

He didn't know what to say to her.
He didn't know if he should tell her.
He consulted his Ma about it who wept with grief, though Y/N's family was still alive- maybe. Alejandro was overseas already, so he didn't know what happened.
Alicia was already sick (though they had tried to heal her with his sister's gift).
And Abuela L/N was still as healthy as ever.

But what was he supposed to say?
Your family is destined to die?
Your Pa will be lost at sea while trying to find a doctor for your Ma who will eventually die? On the bright side, your Abuela would stay for a long time!

He didn't know what to say, how could he?
But he had to come up with something the least painful.

"Uhhh...all you love would disappear!"

 That sounded wrong.
