What if Isabela was Antonio's Mother

TIME FOR DINNER!!!

Isabela's pov

They get here and Mariano tries to greet me with a kiss but I dodge him and pretend I didn't see him leaning down.

We all sit down for dinner I ask Dolores to sit next to Antonio for me she nods and looks nervous about something.

Like worryingly nervous. I decide to shake it off and talk to her later.

Antonio gives me another leaf.

"This one's for the nerves" he says smiling up at me. I smile back genuinely and then I sit down in my seat and my smile fades and I manage a small fake one thinking of what's to come.

"The madrigals and Gusmans together will be so good for the Encanto" abuela starts the dinner conversation. "Yes, let's hope tonight is not a horrible disaster" Señora Guzman responds.

"To a perfect night" abuela says as she lifts her glass.

"Salud!"

"SALUD"

(Y'all apparently that's how it's spelled. I even went into the subtitles to see if it's how they spell it in the movie. Lmao)

My sister and oldest cousin appear to be having some kind of weird staring contest I ignore it and Mariano interrupts it by asking my sister if she wants some avocado.

She pushes the bowl away and I see Dolores whispering in her brothers ear and he turns into Mirabel, his weird way off version of Tio Bruno, and then into a messed up version of his face.

His father nudges him with his elbow and tells him to fix his face.

I'm suspicious but I decide to ignore it and offer my sister water. Then Camilo whispers whatever the secret is to his father and I think I catch a few words.

Mirabel, Bruno, and vision. Oh god what did she do now.

His father spits water all over Mariano. Mariano squeals and his mother comforts him. I put my face in my hand and look forward just wanting this dinner to be over.

"Mirabel the cream please" abuela asks mirabel, looks over at our father "pa the cream?" He smiles awkwardly and hands her the bowl of cream with shaking hands. She hands me the cream and I pass it to abuela while shooting my sister a dirty look.

I hear Felix pass the secret down the line to his wife and a thunder cloud appears above her head spreading across the room quickly.

"Pepa you have a cloud" Abuela tells her distressed daughter. Tia Pepa strokes her braid and whispers to herself "clear sky's, clear sky's clear sky's, clear sky's" and spills the secret to mami.

My sister is suddenly very interested in her juice and looks under the table at the floor.

"Mirabel?" Mariano asks "everything ok?" She bangs her head on the table and my father interrupts "everything is great. She's just... excited! For you to propose" "yes"  Mirabel seems to accept this excuse I shoot her a dirty look before my father continues "as fast as you can!"

'No you shouldn't! You should BACK YOUR ASS OFF! LIKE WAY OFF! OUT OF THE HOUSE AND OFF A CLIF, OFF!' I think to myself

"well actually I was gonna" 'oh thank god he doesn't want to get married either. Not the twist I was expecting but' my thoughts and Mariano are cut off by my sister "you were actually gonna. Great!" She says as she turns me and my chair. I throw her another dirty look but fix my face when she dusts off my shoulder.

"W- uh w-well since everyone here has a talent, my Mariano wanted to begin with a song. Luisa could you bring over the piano?" My sister looks up from her plate clearly barley holding back tears "okay" she says and gets up to run out of the room and get the piano from upstairs were we left it last night.

My youngest sister nervously laughs, gets out of her chair and walks over to Mariano "it's actually family tradition to sing after" she says throwing him off his chair and down on his knee.

'NO DON'T DO THAT! RUIN MY PROPOSAL. IVE BEEN ASKING YOU TO ALL DAY. I said I wanted not a sound out of you. And you decide to listen to me NOW. Of all times to ignore me and do the opposite of what I tell you now is the time. Come on you can do it just be yourself and you'll ruin it without even thinking.'

"Isabela, most graceful of all the madrigals." My sister jumps across the room 'yes mirabel! Keep it up'

"Uhh...?"

"Your doin great" she says with a thumbs up. "The most perfect flower in this entire Encanto" No I don't like the way he says perfect, it's nothing like the way Aaron says it. It's full of appreciation and kindness but it's not the way he says it, there's just something off about it.

Just then we're interrupted by Luisa dragging in the piano and crying. We all look up at her confused.

He puts his focus back on me and opens the ring box "will you marry me?"

'NO'

"No" my sister yells and jumps under the table while Luisa tries to pull the piano through the door but fails and falls back crying. One of Antonio's birds fly over almost attacking señora Guzmán. She shrieks "what is happening?"

Just then Dolores covers her ears and yells "Mirable found Bruno's vision. She's in it. She's gonna destroy the magic and we're all DOOMED" as what looks like a green peace of glass in a glittering silver tray fly's across the table to abuela knocking two glasses of wine off the table.

The door swings open "Felicidades!" The villagers yell outside as they hold up a sign. Thunder cracks and it starts pouring down rain both inside and outside. I take a better look at the thing that flew across the table that seemed to upset everyone.

At first I don't recognize the green plate of glass in the silver metal tray but then I remember. When Tio Bruno gave me my vision that's what it looked like.

It was a light green plate of glass with what looked like a stone statue of a soaked me hugging a shirtless wet man in the pouring rain floating in the center. I kept it in my room tucked behind some flowery vines hanging on a wall. I still look at it when I'm really upset.

I see everyone leaving with mirabel following abuela but leaving her at the doorway.

I remember that I'm supposed to be upset by the fact that my proposal was just ruined and walk out the door screaming behind me

"I HATE YOU!"

A/N: I bet y'all thought I was joking about the next part being later today.

Alright imma head out y'all have sweet dreams and make sure to drink enough water. look out early tomorrow for the next chapter it's gonna be a good one.
