The next day, as Agustin wakes up, he felt something from his dream with Mirabel the previous night.

"It's been weeks now, but she've too much heartbroken and she's a long way, to say at least, from recovery."

"I must tell the others for this.," Agustin said himself.

After breakfast, Agustin told the rest of the family, except Julieta, about what he've dreamt about, but looks like Isabella and Abuela Alma knows what's going to happen.

"We all know Julieta needs some space for a speedy recovery, but it's always too late. We tried to help her, but we always fail. Looks like it's time.," Abuela said.

"As Abuela said, we all tried but fail, so we just needed something that would get mama fully recovered, it's up to Mirabel now.," Isa said, and the rest agrees, but her father have some questions.

"But what about-"

"Tío, don't worry, ever since we now all knew that Julieta is very distant to Abuela, we thought that she need some space.," Dolores said. "But when we all got visited by Mirabel one-by-one and knowing what was the cause of it, we just can't help her for recovery too much.," she added.

"That's why Mirabel orchestrated this, to help us forget and recover from the tragedy that her life has costed.," Abuela added Dolores' words.

"So, we all need to be quiet for this?," Agustin asked.

Everyone in the family was with him nods yes.

"Fine, let's not try to distract her, help her, or even talk to her. That way, she can take more action before the visit, the same way we did to Tonio.," Agustin said.

Meanwhile, Julieta was visiting Mirabel's grave. She recounts how she've missed her, and how she felt the cold air last night, without knowing it was the soul of the tragically departed Madrigal who was visiting her husband.

Later, in the night, Julieta asked something to Agustin, but he didn't answer. As she went to sleep, she thought like it's a great idea that she've not telling the other Madrigals that she's missed her departed daugther.

"I just miss my daugther so much without telling the rest of the familia. Maybe it's the right trick, but I get more distant to mama so much."

As she fall asleep, Mirabel's soul visited her room. She suddenly open her eyes after she felt the cold air once more.

"Mirabel? Mi hija?," Julieta asked.

"Oh, mama, you know you've missed me.," Mirabel softly said. "You've even said that earlier.," she added.

After some clarification, Julieta softly hug Mirabel.

"I should take care of you more before you passed away. I just miss you.," Julieta said.

"I miss you too, mama.," Mirabel said as broke away from the hug.

Julieta's face turned into a sad note, and Mirabel noticed it.

"Why, mama? It's there something wrong?," Mirabel asked.

"Well, ever since you died, my heart broke into a million pieces.," Julieta sadly said.

"I became the saddest person the family, and I-I-I-"

"You were distant to Abuela because her words against me that she've told in your face during the collapse haunted you for a month after my death.," Mirabel said.

"You did you know that?," Julieta softly asked.

"Before I've visited you, I've visited the rest to the familia.," Mirabel said. "They told me their sides, how they can recover and how they've missed me so much.," she added.

"I can't recover after you death, because I loved you so much, and I can't risked a single day without you, that's why I've distant to Abuela.," Julieta explained.

"I know.," Mirabel said. "You know mama, you need to forget the sorrow and suffering that you've witness in order to recover from a tragedy.," the tragically departed Madrigal added.

"I just can't. You know I've missed you so much.," Julieta sadly said.

"Mama, you need to remember me by heart. That way, you've recover easily.," Mirabel softly said.

Julieta was sad after the advice.

"You know, everyone in the familia really missed me."

"Everyone, mi hija?," Julieta asked.

"Yup!," Mirabel said. "They've recovered very well and even though they've missed me a lot, they know they remember me by heart.," she added.

"You should do that as well."

"But how I can have the confidence to talk to Abuela? I know she've angry at me after I've distant to her for so much after your death.," Julieta worriedly said.

"Angry? No, she's not.," Mirabel softly said. "She've missed you so much and she was worried everytime you've been distant to her. She even get sad after she've told me.," she added.

"Is that true?," Julieta asked. Mirabel nods yes.

"So, I should take responsibility then.," Julieta said.

Just after that, Mirabel wanted to say goodbye, but Julieta hold her right hand and hug her.

"Don't go, mi hija. I really need you the most.," she said.

"No need, mama. Just stay happy and remember me by heart.," Mirabel softly said.

"So be it. Gracias, Mirabel.," Julieta sadly said.

"De nada y adios, mama.," Mirabel softly said and leaves.
