Every year on the 12th of November the Bougainvillea family and Garcia family would come together to honour the memory of Michelle's mom named Carolina Cortez. Michelle's family came from along line of Spanish people and her parent's were a blessing to her. On that day, the Garcia family came very early to the cemetery where Michelle's mom was buried. "My father always had the longest talk with my mom," Michele said to the Bougainvillea family.

Ms. Bougainvillea went to me and gave me a warm hug and Michelle said "I wished my mom would hug me like you do." Then Ms. Bougainvillea hugged Michelle even more tighter and said "she is very proud of you Michelle for being so brave."

"Carolina, mi amor. This is your husband Guzman. You should have seen Michelle has grown. She is a very beautiful and young lady who just started to learn Spanish. I know it is not too late for her to learn and I'm very happy she s trying so many new things she is an amazing girl and you would be so proud of her like how i am proud of her." Said Guzman while tears runs down his face.

"Michelle? Would you like to say some words to your mother?" Guzman asked his daughter. "Yes, father i would love to" said Michelle.

When Michelle was close to her mom's grave she said "Hola mama, this is me your daughter the one that you gave birth to and died a few minutes after i was born. Ya that's me i know i have ruined your life, it should have been me who died not you.  Who can i be without a mother? How can i live without a mother's love? How can i be a mother in the future when I don't know how does mother's love is like? But I can't take back what had happened even if really wanted you here right next to me." And suddenly she had heard a voice that said "I'm here baby, i always have been."  When Michelle had turned around to see who it was there was no one so she stood up and walked away while wiping away her tears.
"I'm done, dad" Michelle said to her father.
"Okay baby, lets go have dinner, shall we?" Mr. Garcia asked.
Everyone had such a long day and they were all tired that they said "yes".

During the dinner it was a tradition that the both family say what they are grateful about and since Michelle didn't know if Bethany was still in a bad mood she didn't now if Bethany was grateful for Michelle.
"Okay, how about you go first Bethany," said Mr. Bougainvillea.
"Well then I'm grateful for my family and of course my best friend, Michelle. She is the best person i have ever met and I don't wish to have any other best friends like her well to be exact she is one of a kind so she is technically not replaceable. And I'm sorry if i said some bad things yesterday I didn't mean any of it i was just in a bad mood and i hope you can forgive me?" Said Bethany
"So, Michelle do you have any thing you are grateful for?" Mr. Garcia asked.

Michelle stood up and took a letter from her pocket and said "Hi i am Michelle, well of course you know me, i am grateful to my family, friends, to the god for helping me archive everything. And not to forget my lovely sister, Bethany. I do not treat you as a friend or a best friend i just took things to another level and made you my sister no matter you are my sister by blood or not you are always my sister and i love you so much that you have no idea actually how much and yes, i do forgive you even if yesterday wasn't your best day i understand. And thank you everyone for hearing this long speech I just made up from my head because this paper has no words on it." Then she showed the paper to everyone and Bethany went to hug her new sister that was her best friend for a long time.
Everyone went back home after the beautiful dinner and said good night to each other. And when Michelle hugged Bethany they felt something unusual, it was like a sparkle that was so weird but they had never told anyone about it. They would try to find out what is means but this is no thing for the internet.
