A Mirabelnardo Love Story 💕

We Are One

Tio Bruno sat on a tree stump, sobbing silently. "I never should've given her that vision," he whimpered. "I'm a horrible uncle."

Mirabel came close to her uncle and knelt beside him. Even though she was in shadow form, she put a hand on his arm.

"Tio Bruno...you're not horrible," she said. "I love you."

Then the scene faded away and they were now in a silvery meadow. Mirabel was heartbroken.

"You see now...our family is worse without you," said Abuelo.

"I see it now," said Mirabel sadly. "All my life I was cast aside and considered not special...but now...I realise...I'm important."

"You are important to the family...as I am," said Abuelo. "We are part of each other."

Music began to play and Abuelo began to sing.

ABUELO: As you go
Through life
You'll see
There is so much
That we
Don't understand
And the only thing
We know
Is things
Don't always go
The way we planned
But you'll see
Every day
That we'll never
Turn away
When it seems
All your dreams
Come undone
We will stand
By your side
Filled with hope
And
Filled with pride
We are more
Than we are
We are one

Mirabel wondered about her grandfather's song about being one. What did it mean?

MIRABEL: If there's
So much I must be
Can I still
Just be me
The way I am?
Can I trust
In my own heart
Or am I
Just one part
Of some big plan?
ABUELO: Even those
Who are gone
Are with us
As we go on
Your journey
Has only begun
Tears of pain
Tears of joy
One thing
Nothing can destroy
Is our pride
Deep inside
We are one

A swarm of golden butterflies flew around them.

ABUELO: We are one
You and I
We are like
The earth and sky
One family under
The sun
All the wisdom
To lead
All the courage
That you need
You will find
When you see
We are one

Abuelo wrapped an arm around Mirabel's shoulder. "You must restore the magic, Mirabel. You are the only hope."

"I'll do my best, Abuelo," said Mirabel smiling.

"I know you will," said Abuelo.

Slowly Abuelo dissipated into butterflies. The butterflies, that were once Abuelo fluttered away into the sky.
