-how it's going-

Camilo has turned 16 this year, it was weird.
For him, it felt like forever, waiting. I guess time runs faster when you're having fun, Camilo must've been thinking.

There in scene laid Camilo, he was tossing and turning on his bed, he seems to be having trouble sleeping through the night. Camilo didn't think it could work, but we all need a soft epilogue. We're good people, we've suffered enough. With that, he kept waiting and kept himself busy in hopes that the year could go faster.

Camilo turned to his side and was faced to face with the jar that was full of stars. Ever since (Y/N) left, he never laid a finger on that jar, It was placed carefully on the shelf besides his bed.

Why you ask? well, Camilo didn't remember falling in love with her. All he remembered was staring at the girl before jotting down all his plans with her on a few strips of paper.
Camilo's biggest wish was her, so he threw it away knowing he fell in love with her soul before he could even touch her skin.

Then, Klaus and Caira.
They were growing up, both had turned 8 last Febuary. They had loads of gifts and presents, though they really did hope for their big sister to visit them. Antonio hung out with the twins every so often, They would run around and play with Antonio's critter friends. All stayed the same yet changed, Mirabel would help around town with Isabella and Luisa.

Mariano finally married Dolores, it's so funny right? They still haven't talked about having kids but they were happy together. Camilo cried when his sister got married, he loves her dearly so he sometimes be hanging out with Mariano and talks about what his sister likes and even spend time with Señora Guzman just to talk about how things have been.

September 15 1952,
The school has opened an event where the girls would play instruments. It wasn't too intense of an event, just to give them a break from the other chores.

(Y/N) had chose an instrument called piano, it was small enough to let (Y/N)'s fingers get use to pressing from key to key. Lily played the violin but thought (Y/N) was fit for the violin because of course, she thought playing the big piano was too intense for her but she managed.

For the last month, (Y/N) had been playing the instrument she chose and she was getting good at it to the point where the orchestra has made her the main instrument. Lily would practice with (Y/N) every afternoon, the orchestra would clap and smile whenever they finish the song but there was one problem.

"(Y/N), m-my dear! Please gently press each key, we do not want to scare people away!" Mr. Charles, the conductor reminded. (Y/N) looked up from the keys then towards the man who was softly frowning.

"Yes my dear, I-It is a very loud instrument and tis because it is für elise! It's dynamic has both crescendo and diminuendo not presto" Passing the sheet to (Y/N), Charles pointed towards each note to mention how it is played.

"See?" The conductor smiled and looked at (Y/N) who nodded but kept quiet "alright my dears, one more time" The conductor walked back down from the theatre stage towards the seats.

Mr. Charles was not strict like any other conductor, Mr. Charles was soft-spoken and patient, rather sweet actually. The conductor's signature outfit was a business tux, his hair neatly cut and left his mustache from under his nose and above his upper lip fluffy yet clean.
