After the dream, Julieta realized something that she've would keep forever after her daugther, Mirabel, visited her.
"Gracias, Mirabel. I'll never forget you, mi hija.," Julieta told herself.
The next day, as the family prepares for the monthsary of Mirabel's death, Abuela Alma was trying talk her way to her dauther, but Julieta was dead silent. As Abuela slightly walked away, Julieta was alarmed.
"Mama?," says Julieta. "Can we talk about Mirabel?"
As Julieta sat down, so does Abuela.
"We haven't talked in nearly a month, mi hija.," Abuela sadly said. "Was with you all that time?," the candle holder sadly added.
"I was distant.," Julieta said. "I was distant to you because I know you have to talk bad about Mirabel before her death, aside for some recovery after from those events, and I've not told you or the rest of the family about my style of recovery. But I was wrong about it.," she added.
"Wrong about what?"
"I was wrong because Mirabel told me that even thought they missed her so much, they should remember her by heart. I should've known.," Julieta explained.
"I see.," Abuela said. "That girl is so magical to us, I thought, we don't need a miracle about her. We just needed love for her to experience how life is, and only you have that, and the rest of us haven't.," Abuela said.
"Really?"
"Ever since she didn't have a miracle to work with, I was very harsh on her.," Abuela explained. "And after our last encounter before her death, I realized that I shouldn't be too much harsh.," she added.
"Agustin was very busy with things with you, and he show a little love with Mirabel, but he shown it very well. Tonio also does the same quality of love you have, but I haven't saw it. Luisa and Isa were pressurized by my harshness and they were always angry at Mirabel, but when she helped them to overcame it, they were happy that they have a good sister, and I didn't saw that in the first place and focus on her wrong doings to how she softly took care of her sisters.," Abuela adds more.
"Dolores have love that I've thinked it's not enough for Mirabel to achive. Camilo, ever though she've have fun with, he can't exclaimed how much love he brings to her. Pepa and Felix were the same harshness as me after Mirabel discovers about Bruno, but realized how hard it would be without her, just like you realized it. And Bruno, he knows how special Mirabel is to our family, and how she wanted to show her kind of love she brings to us, but I was wrong.," the candle holder ended her statement to Julieta about what Mirabel brought love to the family.
"I was wrong because she needs to show how much she loves this family, and I didn't have a chance to see it and focus on her wrong doings.," Abuela said.
"I know, Abuela, and you realized it after she passed away.," Julieta said.
"I'm so sorry about everything I've done wrong about her. I hope you understand.," Abuela sadly said.
Julieta softly pat Abuela's back.
"It's ok about it.," Julieta said. "She already forgave all of us as she've said before.," she added.
Just then, Julieta's face turned sad after realized what she've done to Abuela before today.
"Mama, I'm sorry for being distant after all this time. I know it hurts you so much."
"Hija, I know there was a different reason why you did that commotion.," Abuela said. "But after Mirabel said that my words that was something bad about her, I realized that it was too much.," she added.
"And no need to say sorry about it, because I already forgave you."
After Abuela gave forgiveness, she and Julieta hug each other.
At the graveyard, all of the family were now there, until both Abuela and Julieta arrived.
"So, you and Abuela have talked each other for thr first time in a month, mi amor?," Agustin asked Julieta.
"Yes it was.," Julieta said.
Just then, the attention of the family were now focused to Julieta.
"At first, I thought being alone was the solution and that would be my recovery from the tragedy. Turns out it wasn't.," Julieta stated. "After Mirabel's soul visited all of us one-by-one, and when she visited me last night, I realized that you don't need lonliness for recovery, you need to forget the suffering and sorrows of a tragedy and you need to remember your passed loved ones by heart.," she added.
As the family gathers for a picture, they were happy, especially Abuela and a fully-recovered Julieta. They are now happy now that the wounds of the tragedy were now gone but the memory of Mirabel remains the same.
As the family departs from the grave, only Abuela and Julieta remained. They talked about what happened earlier today prior.
As they were about to leave, both Madrigals saw Mirabel's soul. She was very happy that the broken heart of her mother was now fixed and she finally saw both her mother and grandmother having to love each other again as a mother and daugther.
After waving each other, both Abuela and Julieta happily left, so does a happy soul of the late Mirabel Madrigal. She knows that she've now fix the relationship of a magically broken family, without having of be involved due to her death a month ago.
