I stood there stunned for a few seconds. I didn't know what to do. Mirabel has always been probably my only friend she's always been there and ready with a hug and comforting advice. I don't know why I expected her to turn out any different. 'Your a horrible horrible monster YN' I said quietly to myself. 'You hurt people you drive them away your worse than what people think Bruno is like'. I wiped the few tears that fell went out of the room, closed the bookcase and put everything back in its original place.


I sat on the bed and against my will more tears fell. 'I am worthless' 'you are not worthless' said a soft voice. I turned to see Dolores. 'You are not a monster you don't drive people away you would never hurt anyone or be like what people say Bruno is'. 'What they say his is'? 'Well you can't believe all the rumours you hear trust me'. I cracked a little smile. 'But I'm not here for that I'm here for you I heard what happened with Mirabel.... 'Then you know how horrible I am'. 'You are not horrible you and Mirabel were just under a lot of pressure from Antonio's ceremony you because of the fight with Abuela and Mirabel from well it was hard watching a gift ceremony. 


'But, that's still no reason to blame yourself for all of it you might not realize it but I bet Mirabel regrets it as much as you do maybe even more and don't worry about never being seen or a part of this family change will come even if it's a little slow'. 'How..' 'you talk in your sleep surprisingly in detail'. I laughed and hugged Dolores 'thanks, I needed to hear that'. Dolores smiled and then got that look on her face she gets whenever she's listening to something 'hmm' she said. 'What'? 'Come on I hear a song coming on' and with that she pulled me all the way down stairs


YN: Grew to live in fear of  Bruno stuttering and stumbling 

Dolores: I can always hear him sort muttering and mumbling 

YN: I associate him with the sound of falling sand sh sh sh 

Dolores: It's a heavy lift with a gift so humbling 

YN: Always sent Abuela and the family fumbling 

 Dolores: Grappling with prophecies they couldn't understand 

YN: Do you understand 


Camilo: Seven foot frame rats along his back

Camilo: When he calls your name it all fades to black

Camilo: Yeah he sees your dreams he feasts on your screams 

Camilo: we don't talk talk about Bruno 

Everyone: no no no 


Villager 1:  He told me my fish would die the next day dead 

Everyone: no no 

Villager 2: He told me I'd grow a gut and just like he said 

Everyone: no no

Villager 3: He said that all my hair would disappear now look at my head 

All the villagers: your fate is sealed when your prophecy is read


Isabela: He told me that the life of my dreams would be promised and someday be mine

Isabela: He told me that my power would grow and would thrive like grapes on the vine 

 YN: He told me that I'd grow up to shine like the stars in the night 

YN:  Just waiting to come out                               

                                        (Oye Mariano is on his way)

Dolores: He told he that the man of my dreams would be just out of reach 

Dolores:  betrothed to another 


Dolores: it's like I hear him now 

Isabela: Hey sis 

Isabela: I want not a word out of you 

Dolores: it's like I hear him now, I can hear him now 


Mirabel: um Bruno 

Mirabel: yeah about that Bruno 

Mirabel: I really need to know about Bruno 

Mirabel: give me the truth and the whole truth Bruno 

Camilo: Isabela your boyfriends here 


Isabela +Abuela: time for dinner 

 Everyone singing their parts at the same time while setting up dinner 

Together: He's here don't talk about Bruno, no

Mirabel: why did I talk about Bruno 

Together: not a word about Bruno 

Mirabel: never should have brought up Bruno
