[Synopsis - Isa decides to spend some quality time with her sisters.]

New year, new Isa. Isa looked at herself critically in the mirror and straightened her dress. The miracle fading has scared the life out of her, to be perfectly honest, and she was determined it wouldn't happen again, especially now she knew the whole key to it was relationships. That should be easy enough, she'd watched her sister's grow up after all, she knew what they were like.

She went for Luisa first, knocking on her immediate younger sisters door and waiting.

Dolores stuck her head out from around her door, "If you're looking for Luisa she's doing her chores."

Isabela gave a look outside, wondering why Luisa was STILL doing her chores at this relatively late hour. "Is Mirabel here?" She asked, instead.

Dolores nodded slightly. "Room." And pointed.

Isa took deep, calming breaths as she headed towards her youngest sisters room. Since the whole incident the two sisters had grown closer but they still weren't completely there yet and Isa wasn't entirely sure how to make them closer.

She knocked on Mirabel's door and waited.

The door opened and Mirabel looked surprised. "Isa! ¿Estás bien?*"

"Por supuesto que estoy bien." Isa said, irritably. "¿Por qué no lo estaría?*

Mirabel made a face and opened her door fully. "Alright, alright, I was just asking. Cielos*."

Isa flicked her hair and folded her arms, before remembering she was meant to be there to be nice and quickly unfolding them. "Mirabel, is there anything you would like to do today?"

Mirabel looked confused. "In what way?"

Isa resisted the urge to strangle her sister and said, patiently. "Would you like to go into the village for a walk, or cook something together, or read to each other like we used to, you know-" She said, voice growing steadily more irritable. "-vínculo, como*."

Her youngest sister took a few seconds to think then smiled widely and said. "Well, it would be nice to take a walk. Who knows - podemos recoger a Luisa en el camino.*"

It didn't take them long to find Luisa, considering they weren't particularly looking for her. Their sister was attempting to right one of the masculino* houses which seemed to be trying to slip down into the next house.

The man who owner it - a Señor Diaz - was looking particularly anxious as Luisa moved his house back and forth and back and forth, but made no move to help her.

Isa and Mirabel exchanged a glance and walked up to their sister. "¿Qué pasa, Luisa?*" Mirabel asked, giving Señor Diaz a sideward glance.

"Everytime I try and get this thing straight it moves!" Luisa burst out, eyes wide and body-language extremely irritated.

Mirabel frowned slightly and examined the house. "It's at an angle." She pointed out. "I think you need to bring it forward and then it might stand a chance of being level, but I'm not sure. It just might not work." She directed this last bit towards Señor Diaz, who had the grace to admit it may be better to leave this for now until tomorrow.

"Vamos, Luisa*." Isa smiled, linking her arm with her immediate younger sisters. "Únase a nosotros para dar un paseo*."

The strong women looked pleasantly surprised at being asked and allowed herself to be led away. Mirabel ran behind them to keep up.

"How's your day been?" Isa asked.

Luisa sighed deeply. "Ni siquiera vayas allí. Juro que esos burros escapan deliberadamente*..."

While listening with one ear Isa smiled to herself. This was quite nice, they'd have to do it more often.

*Are you alright?

*Of course I'm alright.

*Why wouldn't I be?

*Geez

*We may pick up Luisa along the way

*Men's

*What's up Luisa?

*Come on, Luisa.

*Join us for a walk.

*Don't even go there. I swear those Donkeys escape deliberately...
