Chapter 4 : " ANTONIO'S CEREMONY pt 2 "

At la Casa Madrigal
Finally the Gift Ceremony is about to Begin! We can see Mariana at the back of the crowds as she starts to leave to say hi to Antonio.

Antonio!       Mariana, thank goodness your here. Said Antonio as she hugged Mariana.  Nervous?  Antonio just nodded.    It's going to be fine, now stay calm and breath in and breath out. Mariana said as she tried to calm Antonio.  Antonio try to calm himself when Carlos just showed him self.  Ugh, what do you want? Mariana asked with a tired face.
Ow nothing. Replied Carlos with a Mischievous look. I was going to checking on Antonio but he, have his "Big sister" talking to him already. Carlos continue, Goodluck little Bro, I hope you don't end up like her . Said Carlos as he left the two to continue talking.

Urggg that Carlos!! I'll punch his Face as soon as he--  Mariana was stop by Antonio. " I know Brother Carlos is not good to you, but he is a really nice person. Trust me you'll see it someday". Antonio said as he try to stop Mariana from shouting more.   Well I hope so, if he did somehow nice things to me that would be a "Miracle" because it ain't gonna happen. Mariana with a Smug Face.  Antonio just laugh as he start to feel better.

AT THE BACK WE CAN SEE CARLOS WAS LISTENING TO THE CONVERSATION ALL ALONG
"IT wOuLd bE a MiRaClE iF tHaT HaPpEnDs" Carlos trying to make fun of Mariana as he left to join the Others

CEREMONY
50 years ago this Candle Bless us with A Miracle that light our Darkest moment. And tonight we come together once more as another step into the light... to make us proud.   as Abuela starts to make a Speach, we can see Carlos with his Tia Julieta

Carlos. Asked Julieta.   What is it Tia?    I know Mariana and you don't get along, you two used to be close but now... Uh.. if Antonio did get his Gift, Mariana is Going to be lonely again. Said Julieta trying to get Carlos to convince him.   .....  Carlos was stunned for a moment but replied to his Tia "I'm sorry tia, I can't promise that" after all she was the first one to turn her back on me. Carlos said as she starts to listen again to Abuela

As The Crowds started to clap for Antonio, Curtains open we can see Antonio standing nervously.
A little later Casita tried to make Antonio moved but instead he looked at Mariana.

I need you. Asked Antonio as he reached his hand out.   Mariana looked at Abuela as she knew that the roles for tonight are already set.  I can't, I'm not allowed to. Mariana replied as she moved backwards.  Antonio looked at Mariana one more time, with no other choice Mariana hold Antonio's hand as they walk along towards the door

Everyone was shocked and started to mutter.  Meanwhile Mariana sweating from anxiousness, remembering the past where she tried to open her door but it disappeared into thin air.

Will you use your gift to honor our miracle? Will you serve this community and strengthen our home? Antonio nooded as he holds the candle. Tried to reach his door while doing a deep breath.
