Camilo Madrigal, the trickster of the town, woke up a little late as he overslept last night. He walked out of his room only to see Isabela and Luisa running around decorating Casita along with the help of Antonio and Mirabel downstairs.

"What's going on?" He asked and yawned.
"Oh, you forgot? Isabela's boyfriend and his family are coming for dinner." His older sister replied as walked upstairs, she left with her signature squeak.

Camilo immediately went to help around Casita. He walked outside to tidy up the fallen leaves as it's already fall.

"Dolores, what time exactly will they come?" Abuela Alma asked inside.
"Around 7 or 8 in the evening."

Camilo is intrigued on this boyfriend of Isabela, only Abuela and Luisa knows how he looked like, the rest of the family are clueless, the name is the only thing they know, he is known as Alfred Romero.

As soon as Camilo finished tidying the fallen leaves he immediately went to the town to entertain the kids with his ability, so does helping parents on taking care of their babies. Upon finishing his duty the clouds turned dark, indicating his mother, Pepa, is on a bad mood. He shrugged it and still helped the townspeople.

As he returned to the Casita, first thing he heard was.
"Bruno! Come here or I'll get Dolores to rat you out again!" That was his mom.
"That's why the clouds are dark. Tio Bruno made another prank on mom."

Camilo retreated inside of his room for a while as he is tired from all of the shapeshifting he did today. He then wandered around his magical room, where mirrors are everywhere, so does the floor kept on changing it texture and appearance.

"Camilo!" It was Abuela. "Time to eat! The Romero's are here!"

That's his cue to leave and go inside the dining room. As the Madrigals sits one by one, he scanned the room and saw a small family of Romero, the white haired man, the father; with a woman beside him, the mother. Then on the other side, was a tall man sitting next to Isabela, that's probably Alfred; and on the other side if Alfred is a man around his own height, brownish hair and hazel eyes, he's probably the younger brother of Alfred.

The younger Romero glanced at Camilo like he sensed that he was staring making the male Madrigal panic and looked at his food and starts to eat.

"It's wonderful now that both Romero and Madrigal are having a feast on one table." Abuela stated as she looked at her grandchild, who is content and happy on her current life.

"Dolores, when will the Guzmans be available? So all of us 3 families can bond as one?"
"Next week." She simply answered.
"I see. Now, Mrs. Romero, can you introduce these two handsome men in our table."
"It will be three if you count my husband Alma." She chuckled and looked at her sons. "As you now know, this fine blond man is your Isabella's Alfred, and that fine man, is Y/n, Alfred's younger brother, he's about a month younger than Camilo I believe."
"What do you do as of now here in Encanto, Y/n?" Mirabel asked a little curious.
"I do paint and draw." He answered with his deep voice.

Camilo smiled at his response, he doesn't know why but he smiled. After the dinner, the Romero's bid their farewell. He then murmured,

"Is it me, or Y/n didn't flashed a single smile." As if on cue, his sister showed up and replied.
"I heard from his family, he never smiled again when his abuelo died, sad reality." She squeaked and left to go to her room.

He then wondered what's the reason behind it. He went upstairs and was about to open his door but he saw his Tio Bruno, entering his own room. He rushed and followed him.
"Tio Bruno!" He shouted as soon as he entered his room, making the older male flinch.

"Oh, Camilo, what do you need?"
"I need your gift Tio. I wanted to see what will happen if I asked Y/n about his past."
"You need my vision for that? You sure kid? Because, as much as I want to help you, it will still be up to you on how you deliver it. Plus, you guys just met, and get some rest. Don't listen to Dolores that much." He pat his nephew's shoulder and ushered him to leave the room.
"But-"
"No buts. Get some sleep. You know that your Mami Pepa will storm in your room if she caught you."

Sighing in defeat, he nods and left Bruno's room and went inside his own.

"What's up with that mysterious man..."
