You have lived with the Madrigals for a week now, and their behavior is... Odd. They would fight over your attention and constantly stick by your side. You finally learned their names. You had noticed the abuse dynamic. Mirabel is the scape goat, Alma is the leader, Isabella is the golden child Luisa is the strong one, Pepea is the emotional one, Julieta is the helper, Augustíne is the accidental one. Camillo is the comedic relief, Antonio is pressured, Dolores is the information machine, and Felix is only for emotional support.  It is quite sad. You were closest to Mirabel, and you could tell a lot of people were jealous, they started  to shun Mirabel more, which only made you two closer. You felt yourself starting to fall for her. And people started to notice. "So Y/n, why are you spending so much time with Mirabel?" Alma asks. "She's just very sweet and fun to be around!" You reply. "Am I not sweet and fun to hang around?" Isabella says. "Yes?" You say nervously, getting uncomfortable as the tension rises. "What about me?" "Don't forget me!" Dolores and Camillo chime in. You start to wonder if Mirabel is the only sane one? "You all are very kind and sweet, but me and Mirabel just click, you know?" The tension rises, you feel sad gazes look at you. "You know, Mirabel isn't as... Gifted... As the rest of us, you would be better off with the rest of us." Alma says, with a blunt tone. Tears well up in Mirabel's eyes. You feel rage soar through you. "How dare you say that about your own granddaughter, she is your flesh and blood and you should treat her as such! You all treat her like garbage because of something she can't help! I should just leave and take Mirabel with me!"
