{{By this time, it had almost been a week}}

Camilo who was still awake, not knowing what time it was, would just sit on the floor In the empty room. The blood from his hands and arms dripping onto the floor, he heard the footsteps approaching the room, making him flinch and breathe heavily, he couldnt back away though, his back was already against the wall.

The doorknob turned, and the door opened, camilo hoped it was someone else, but of course it was Celeste.

"I'm only here because i have a question, how do I get into the Casita without anyone noticing?" Celeste asked.

Camilo stayed silent until she grabbed him by the collar of his shirt to ask again, desperate for an answer, threatening him.

He would breathe heavily and use his hands to shield his face."I don't know."

"That's a lie! Your a Madrigal and you've lived there all you life, how do you not know?!" She sighed, and let go of his collar, making him fall back onto the ground.

"Out of all the Madrigals I could've asked, I happened to practically 'kidnap' one who doesn't know?!' She said walking outside of the room and locking the door again.

He went. Back to sitting on the floor, covering his ears and ignoring the blood that kept dripping down his arms ignoring the pain.

{{With Valentina and Lorenzo}}

"Lorenzo calm down we will find him-" Valentina said, then quickly saw her sister storming upstairs from the spare room they had in their basement.

"Celeste? What where you doing down there?" Valentina asked.

"None of you business." She'd say storming out with a key in her hand.

"What's that?" Valentina grabbed her arm, noticing brightly colored key celeste had in her hand.

"A key, duh. Now go away." Celeste said walking away.

Celeste hadn't noticed Valentina snatched the key quickly.

"Maybe we should go see what this goes to. I bet it's something from the basement." Valentina dragged Lorenzo with her, obviously not wanting to go alone. They noticed the locked room.

"Is this the right door for this?" Valentina said looking at the key.

"How should I know?" Lorenzo shrugged.

Valentina successfully unlocked the door but didnt open it. "Should I open it?" Valentina asked.

"Yeah, you already unlocked it, so might as well." Lorenzo said.
