When I started walking back to Casita later that evening it was already starting to get dark out. I better hurry before Abuela has another reason to be mad at me. 'Hey YN'! 'YN'! 'I turned to see Marco. 'Hi Marco' I said surprised. 'I just thought you should know Maria already started a rumour about how the only reason Abuela hasn't kicked you out yet is because you and Camilo are in love and he will hurt anyone who tries to take you away'. I sighed'thanks for telling me most people would have just pretended they didn't hear that and continue hating me'. 'Well I'm not most people'. I smiled 


'Plus Maria can be tough I only helped her because I owed her a favour for not starting a rumour about my sisters'. 'Well that's really noble of you'. 'Thanks and if you ever want to come over for real I mean you know where to find me'. 'I definitely will and thanks again'. I continued walking to Casita with a smile on my face and feeling a little lighter.


'YN can you come and help me with the dishes' tia Julieta yelled from the kitchen. 'Coming tia'! 'Mija is there something bothering you'? 'No why'. 'It just seems that lately you've been really stressed with Antonio's ceremony and Isabela getting engaged tonight' she said the last part sounding a little stressed herself. 'Is there something wrong with Isabela getting engaged'? 'No, it's just I'm not sure that it's the best thing for her she may not act like it but even she needs a break sometimes' 'don't worry she'll be fine Mariano is a good man she will be settled in and happy in no time'. 'I hope so, and don't think that you can just divert my question like that making sure that you are ok is more important than my stress about Isabela'. 'I'm fine tia' 'are you sure' 'I'm sure and if you need to find me I'll be in my room' I said finishing up the last of the dishes.



                                 Mirabel's POV 

I just got out of Bruno's tower which by the way is now half destroyed because of I landslide I caused by finding his last vision. Which I know has something to do with me but I just don't know what. Now I'm on my way to YN's room because I thought hmm who would know the most about Bruno in this family that might actually be willing to talk about him. YN! Save the family save the miracle save Casita can't be that hard right?



                                YN POV

I was sitting on my bed working on a portrait of Isabela for the wedding. I think I might give it to her and Mariano as an wedding present. Or I would if I could get it right every single time I try to draw her I just can't get it right. It's just when I draw someone it's their imperfections and flaws that I try and perfect their perfections are easy but without flaws the portrait looks non-realistic. So when trying to draw someone who is absolutely flawless it's hard to find those details that pull the drawing together. Tap tippity tap tap. 'Come in Mirabel I said. 'Ok so YN I need a bit of assistance with something and I thought maybe you could help me out with a teeny tiny favour'. I shrugged and then nodded. 'Great, well thing is I need to know about Bruno. I dropped my pencil. 


I turned it to look at Mirabel with something that looked like a mix of curiosity and disbelief. 'Follow me I said as I turned to walk towards a book case near the back of the room. I took a book out flipped it upside down and put it back in. The bookshelf slid aside to reveal a white door. I turned the door knob and went in as Mirabel followed me. 


'What is this place'? She said as we walked into the bright white room. 'Welcome to the memory room'! 'Wait what' she said. 'It's a secret room that can replay your memories like you are actually back there'. 'But right now it's just white'. 'Watch this' I said I concentrated on the day I got my gift. Slowly the walls and floor and ceiling started shifting into an exact copy of my memories there was even a smell of arepas in the air. 'Whoa' Mirabel said looking around the room in awe. 'And you can also see it in motion too' I said. 'Just concentrate on everything moving and hearing all of the sounds you would normally hear'. I could see her trying to concentrate and then. 


'Fifty years ago in our darkest moment.... 'Again whoa' she said looking at her own hands trying to figure out if she was in the right body. 'You get used to it pretty quickly' I said remembering the first time I discovered the room and how amazed I was. 'Anyway you asked me about Bruno so any memories I have of him can be viewed in here and there are a lot so we better get started. I went through after memory after memory after memory of Bruno. Going out for ice cream, him letting me win at monopoly, doing his hair and makeup. 'There's got to be more that you can show me' Mirabel said looking around feverishly. 'I'm sorry there's nothing else to show'. 'Did Bruno ever mention anything about a vision or Casita or anything'. 'No, I told you he didn't tell me anything'. 'Are you sure' she said this time sounding more suspicious than desperate. 


'Why would I lie to you'. 'It's just that you've been under a lot of pressure since Antonio's ceremony with Abuela and when your under stress it's easy to.... 'I'm sorry about yelling at Abuela I'm sorry that I can't do anything for this family I'm sorry my stupid gift is useless I said whisper yelling. 'What no I didn't mean.... 'if course not nobody ever means to accuse someone else' I said with my voice syrupy sweet with sarcasm. 'But I just thought.... 'Actually sounds like you didn't really think at all'. 'Ok I get that your upset but there are more important things than your little revenge like saving the miracle so you can either tell me or not'. 'I told you I don't know anything'! 'Fine I'll look for answers somewhere else'! She said on her way out. For a few seconds I just stared at the empty space where stood.


                                   Mirabel's POV

 I don't know why I said all those horrible things when I started I just couldn't stop. YN's one of the most trustworthy people I know. She would never lie about something like that. I almost considered going back to say sorry but I just don't know how. I hope she doesn't think I'm a horrible person. As for the Bruno thing maybe if I just go back to my room and think about it I might remember something about him. I really hope she knows that I'm really really sorry.



I had a few friends ask me what her room looks like after I published it. So I decided to put it here enjoy.


The room is pretty basic compared to the rest of the Madrigal's rooms. A normal sized bed, a light blue lamp, pencils hidden all through out the room. Dark blue carpet, cream coloured wallpaper, bamboo tiled floors. At the back a HUGE bookcase with tons of secret entrances and exits built into it. All around the room there are secret passageways to all around the house and even to other peoples rooms. Also expect to see a cavas and paints near the window so she can paint while looking at or painting the scenery.  Hope that answered most of your questions thanks for reading.
