Camilo POV

We go inside the house and set the table. Lusia brings it out and she and Y/n talk. Everyone sits down and we talk about the new houses.

"Y/n, do you mind telling us what happened back at your village?" Abuela asks kindly and she stills for a moment
"I don't think right now is a good time" she says, smiling "after we eat I can" Abuela nods. We finish lunch, Mirabel and Antonio clean up while everyone else goes into the living room. I sit beside Dolores and Mateo sits beside his sister.
"What happened Y/n?" Julieta asks and she takes a breath.

"When I got there everything was on fire, our house was gone. I saw a man about to attack a kid named Diego so I stopped him, I lunged at the man." Mateo takes her hand

"All the men stood in front of me, the town behind me, like I was a shield. I attacked two more and they left. There was one man who stayed behind" Her voice wavers and she clears it.

"I told him to leave and he didn't so I- we fought" she says, touching her cheek. I want to hug her and I want to kill him for hurting her. "He- He left." Something's off, she never stutters "I told them to put out the fires and gather whatever they wanted. Then I came back here and then I left. I helped bury the bodies and then we left."

"And then?" Abulea asks softly

"And then we walked for three days. The first time we stopped I wrapped up some cuts so they didn't get infected. We set up camp for the night, I slept for five hours I think" Dolores grabs my hand.
"We kept walking, it was too much for some of the littler kids so I shifted, that's why my hands were like that. We stopped again for the night and I didn't sleep, I couldn't. That morning we got here. I brought twenty three people, twenty three. I should have got there faster, it's my fault half of them are dead" She says her voice breaking. I shake my head

"It's not your fault" Isa says

"Please don't" Y/n whispers "if I got there faster, there would be more people here, there would be more people alive, I know that, you all know that"

"Thank you for telling us," Mamma says and touches her knee, she smiles sadly and leaves, tears in her eyes. I sit up and Mateo shakes his head

"Leave her, she'll just lash out" I frown but stay seated. Everyone is silent. Gabriela holds her husband's hand.
