The Madrigal family were shoocked that Mirabel died due to the collapse of the Casita.
Not far from the site of the tragedy, the community around them send their deep sorrows to the familia.
The Casita was destroyed. Clouds were dark and gray. The community was in deep sorrow. The family was sad. They still can't handle the sadness that they've suffered, not even a single bit.
Julieta and Agustin, the parents of the deceased Madrigal, were in so much sadness after their youngest dauther died. The father was able to talk with Abuela Alma about what she've said to him and his wife before Mirabel died.
"I so sorry for what I've said about what I've should said about your dauther, Agustin.," the candle holder sorrowly said. "I hope you and Julieta forgave me.," Abuela added.
"I know how much you hate her because of her mistakes, but let's face it: parents, and even old ones like you, can't be too much hard on the young ones.," Agustin said. "Besides, you said sorry, Abuela, so we forgave you, right mi amor?," he added, then asks Julieta.
Turns out she had a cold reaction towards Abuela after what happen.
"Julieta, I just-"
"Don't say anything about Mirabel again, mama.," Julieta answered coldly.
"I know it's that bad about what I've said in front in your face earlier but I'm taking it back so I-"
"Just don't say anything about Mirabel ever again, mama," Julieta slightly shouted Abuela, then runs away.
Abuela was sadden after what her daugther said in front of her face, the same way herself did in front of her earlier, prior to Mirabel's death.
"I'm sorry for that, mi hija.," Abuela said to herself.
"It's ok, Abuela. She need some space.," Agustin sadly said.
Meanwhile, Pepa tried and tried to make a rain, but she can't do it. Despite that, the dark gray clouds were surrounding the community.
Felix, her husband, were talking to some people to help him recover from the tragedy. Suddenly, he saw his wife crying non-stop, so he approched.
"Mi amor, why are you crying non-stop?," Felix asked Pepa. "Is there something wrong?," he added.
"There's nothing wrong.," Pepa sobbingly said.
"It's just...... just...."
Pepa tried to explain how she can recover from the tragedy, especially now that Mirabel died.
"I don't know what would be without Mirabel, that's all.," Pepa finally explains her husband's question.
While that was happening, Dolores, after talking to some people, saw Antonio crying, so she approched her little brother.
"Hermanito, what wrong?," Dolores asked Antonio.
Suddenly, Camilo also approched Antonio.
"Tonio, we all know Mirabel is gone, and it's ok to be sad.," Camilo said, then he started to cry.
Camilo was so sad about the tragic passing, he couldn't control his emotions. Antonio did the same thing, so he also started crying.
"We all know that, but we can't be normal at this point.," Antonio said sobbingly.
Dolores realized how hard Mirabel's death felt to her. So hard, the familia also felt the same.
After conforting her brothers, Dolores approched Bruno.
"I think we've realized something, tío.," Dolores' serious voice told Bruno.
Bruno asked what Dolores was talking about. Her little serious face turned into a sad one after what she've realized: not taking care, or even having a thought of taking care, of her deceased cousin while she was alive. She knows that every single Madrigal didn't care about her, except Bruno, who himself she's is talking to, and Mirabel's parents, Julieta and Agustin.
"We've realized how important Mirabel is to our familia.," Dolores said. "I know how hard we didn't care about her, especially Abuela and Isa, and after what happened to the Casita, and what we've realized that she was tragically passed away because of the rubble of the collapse, realisation hit them hard. Realisation hit all of us hard.," she added.
"I know that, mija.," Bruno told Dolores. "We all do. Just we need to recover from this and remember every great thing we've spend with her.," he added.
Isabella and Luisa, on the other hand, got into a sad conversation after the former got conforted by Mariano.
"We never protected her from Abuela because we believe that we might suffer the same thing.," Luisa said.
Isa looked at her big sister sadly.
"And we didn't have time to save her at all.," Isa adds to Luisa's words. "She indeed help us to become better persons but, sadly enough, we didn't even say 'thank you' to our sister. Not even a single bit of that.," the floral Madrigal added.
Just then, Camilo and Antonio aprroched the two girls. They know they felt the same way as they've suffered moments ago.
"I know it's hard, Isa.," Camilo told Isa. "We might remember the good things we've spend with her and remember her by heart.," he added.
Antonio saw Luisa crying for a bit, so he followed suit. Just then, the family, except Abuela, approched the two sisters. They now realized that losing someone is more painful than ignoring that particular person, and that particular person was Mirabel.
"Say, where's Julieta?," Pepa asked Agustin. "She's not with you for a couple of minutes now.," she added.
"Well, she run away.," Agustin answered. Pepa asked him why.
"Abuela talked about Mirabel's passing to her.," Agustin said. "Abuela tried and failed. Julieta even slightly shouted her before running away.," he added.
Speaking of Julieta, she runs back to the site of the tragedy, and the lifeless Mirabel was still there. What happens next would be surpricing for her and the rest of the familia.

A/N: Just like the song title that I just put in the chapter, it really hurts so good for a mother who lost a child who's been loved by herself, just like what Julieta reacted by losing Mirabel after the collapse.
