" Alright are you two done staring? Being the third wheel isn't fun." Camilo finally said after the two kept leading each other on with the staring and nervous laughing.

Mirabel returned his question with a icy glare.

" Oh sorry! Yeah maybe you two should get going. Mom and dad would freak out if they find out you're here."

Camilo raised a brow. " Wait. Aren't we welcome here or...?" Y/N shook her head, making the two Madrigals sigh in relief.
" I'm just not expected to see anyone at this time. Y'know ..." she raised a notebook, shaking it sarcastically.

" Studying."

She motioned them out of the attic, since the atmosphere was not only heavy and dark, but also dusty.

The moment they arrived downstairs, what awaited Y/N was far more worse than the smell of old books and newspapers.

A knock arrived at the door so Y/N went over to open it.

Her eyes widened as there stood in the doorway was Pepa and Julieta.

" Mama?!" Both Mirabel and Camilo shouted in disbelief.

" Camilo? What are you and Mirabel doing here?" asked Julieta. The lady didn't look like her usual self. Her hair was down and a little messy, like she just ran all the way there, and Pepa on the other hand looked more stressed than she's ever been.

" Nevermind that. Y/N. . . something happened,

it's your mother."

M/N was currently under a condition where she has lost risky amount of blood. Upon hearing this news, Y/N felt numb. Upon seeing her mother's condition, she collapsed on her knees and wept, falling into Mirabel's arms who was closest to her.

The few witnesses surrounded the girl and her friend, but was immediately dismissed by Agustin and Felix, who noticed the big crowd forming around the house and didn't want Y/N to feel overwhelmed.

But Y/N already was. The sudden shock choked her to the point she can barely breathe, tears soaking Mirabel's shoulder continuously as she couldn't form any proper words besides crying for her mother's name.

Mirabel on the other hand held her tightly. This was the most vulnerable she's seen of Y/N. It was unbelievable how in her eyes just a few minutes ago, she reflected happiness.

" She won't die. She'll be okay. It's okay. She's strong."

She was also at a lost of words which made her unsure of what comforting words she should tell Y/N. " Mom please tell us Mrs. L/N will be fine." she whispered to Julieta, Y/N remained clinging onto Mirabel's arm.

Julieta frowned. " I managed to stop the bleeding but the bruises will take time to heal. And I don't know when she'll wake, the impact on her head is severe."

Y/N stopped crying, voice tired from all the weeping. She felt her dear friend's hand on her shoulder, who was worried from her sudden silence. " Y/N?" she called out to her softly. Y/N looked at her with hollow eyes. " I just need time alone." She told her, before standing up to take her leave.

I wouldn't say she walked, but she ran. She ran away towards the forest. Mirabel went to go after her, with her legs moving but her head coming to a complete halt.
