This has been the THIRD TIME he has READ that LETTER, brows knit in CONFUSION and FRUSTRATION, multiple THOUGHTS swirling in the MIND of the SHAPESHIFTER.
They have grown APART—and it wasn’t ANYONE’S fault. Camilo had a JOB to do—A PROMISE made to the CANDLE to HELP the community. He was BUSY—he wasn’t INTENTIONALLY…
A SIGH leaves Camilo as he folds it back up.
THEY ALL LOVE YOU.
His lips PURSE in thought.
EVERYONE NEEDS YOU.
She never WANTED him to see this letter, but he had found it after the fall of CASITA, And at the time, it wasn’t a GOOD IDEA to bring it UP. At the time, he was worried about ANTONIO when they all lost their GIFTS. If he didn’t have DUTIES, He would love nothing MORE then to spend TIME with his COUSIN…
But NOW? Now they had a NEW Casita. NOW, things have gotten…BETTER.
NOW, was the time to TALK about this.
“PSSSST—Hey, PRIMA, c’mere!” Camilo whispered over to her, gesturing for Mirabel to come CLOSER, away from everyone else—away from the NOISE. And then, when it’s just THEM, he unfolds the piece of paper, holding it OUT to her, brows furrowed.
“So…You didn’t want me to SEE this, huh?”
