We are all in this together

Chapter 4 : Shes waiting on her miracle

"I CANNOT BELIVE YOU MAMÁ, HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU DONE THIS, ALL MIRA WANTED TO DO WAS HELP AND BE THERE FOR ANTONIO HOW COULD YOU EXCLUDE HER LIKE THAT?!"Bruno's eyes were glowing a very deep green.

"Bruno calmate your doing it again ". Julieta shushed and tried calming him down

"NO I WILL NOT CALM DOWN, I LEFT TO PROTECT HER AND KEEP HER SAFE SO THAT SHE WOULD BE TREATED LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE NOT TO JUST BE PUT ASIDE LIKE SHE ISN'T WORTHY AND PART OF THIS FAMILY, CAUSE I CAN TELL YOU RIGHT NOW SHE IS AND I LOVE LIKE MY OWN SAME GOES FOR EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS FAMILY". Bruno continued

Meanwhile Mirabel was surprised at all the commotion and didn't know her Tio thought of her as his own daughter nor had she seen or heard him yell like that before. Both families were shocked at Bruno's outburst. Mirabel just broke down in tears as she couldn't believe someone stood up for her.

"I think We need to go ". Héctor took Mirabel's arm and led to quiet place to calm down

Mirabel gently got up and went to the next room, Héctor looked at her with sadness and love.

"Estas bien Mija?" Héctor asked

"Lo siento Héctor, I just never had someone stand up for be me before let alone it being Mi Tio being the one to do it". Mirabel replied through sobs

"Ay Mija , you know your Tio loves you very much and he would do anything for you even if it means protecting you ". Héctor whispered

"Si yo sé ". She replies

Imelda came running in and hugged Mirabel tight. Meanwhile Mirabel squeezes her back hard and continues to cry Imelda's motherly instincts take over.

"Ssh ssh Carina it's okay everything will be fine". Imelda reassures

Imelda hands her a bottle of water from the snack table she had grabbed earlier, Mirabel takes a couple of sips takes a few deep breaths and finally calms down.

"Better Love?" Imelda asks cautious

She nods and smiles and squeezes her hand

"Gracias you didn't have to do this for me". Mirabel thanks

"Nonsense Mija we are for support and we will learn and get through this together I  have a feeling  Señorita Layla bought us here for a reason". Héctor explains

Isabela, Antonio, Socorro, Miguel and Dolores came running in with worried looks on their faces.

"Estas bien Mira ?"Antonio piped

"Si". She replied

"Don't leave us". Antonio said

"Why I would never do that Hombrecito ". Mirabel reassures

"Promise". He asked

"Si I am NEVER going to do such a thing". Mirabel replies

"You know I think we should redo  Your ceremony photo when we get back what do you think?" Dolores asked

"Si". Antonio replied

"I guess it's settled then". Isabela came up and hugged Mirabel

Soon the rest of them joined on the hug including Héctor and Imelda and they were glad everything was sorted out together. They soon left the quiet space  and went to join the others and Noticed that Bruno was very quiet and not talking probably because of all the yelling he just did and his voice had gone a little bit hoarse.
