The whole town was celebrating, heading to the Casita to watch the big moment, children were given sparklers to play with, there was tons of food, it really was a huge celebration.

Luisa was greeting people coming inside and also moving any animals that needed to be put in pens.

All of the kids were working to entertain. Camilo was greeting various people along with Luisa, and Isabela was entertaining with her flower magic, making Mariano stare at her dreamily. Any kids who tried to go up to the door, Casita would stop by getting rid of the stairs.

Isabela Sighed, "That's it... I have a confession to make," Isa Bella started, Bruno pressed pause for the movie. "I have never been in love with Mariano," Abuela's eyes widened, Jullieta gasped. Everyone was surprised except Mirabel.

Deloris brightened up and looked at Tiò Bruno. Who had a vision about deloris loving Mariano but never being able to be with him.

Bruno smiled,

Isabela couldn't help looking down at the thought sadly. Nobody knew the real her.

And she's not sure they ever will. Unless she shows it.

Mirabel brought Antonio downstairs, where his family was waiting for him. "There you are." Felix beamed.

"Look at you, all grown up..." Pepa grew teary-eyed, a rain cloud above her. Felix quickly shooed it away.

Camilo turned into Felix. "You are mak-a your Papa proud." He imitated.

Pepa smiled, a little and a rainbow appeared over her head.

"I don't sound like that." Felix pouted.

"I don't sound like that." He mocked.

"Abuela says it's time." Dolores chimed in quietly.

Pepa smiled. "We'll be waiting at your door." She told her son simply. Antonio's family left, leaving only him and Mirabel.

Mirabel was watching silently then suddenly remembered what happened.

"I was so scared," Antonio said,

"so was I, Before I promised myself that No matter what the result is, I will always love you and treat you the same as she always I have, and so will the rest of the family, I'll make sure of it." Mirabel whispered to him

"I should do that for you." Antonio mentioned,

"You don't need to do that to be the most amazing cousin ever." she said softly tickling his stomach, he nestled his head under her arm, while silently giggling and looked back at the screen

Abuela held the Miracle candle in her hands, stood on the stairs to give her speech. "Fifty years ago, in our darkest moment, this candle blessed us with a Miracle, and the greatest honor of our family has been to use our blessings to serve this beloved community. Tonight, we come together once more, as another steps into the light, to make us proud."

Mirabel couldn't help her frown as she listened to Abuela's speech, growing sad.

Julieta looked at Abuela in the back of the room, she had her head down with a look of sorrow on her face.

The curtains opened and everyone clapped for Antonio, who stood there anxiously.

He was supposed to walk up the stairs, but got nervous and looked to Mirabel for help. He held out his hand for her to take.
