Chapter 2 : Care for you
2 weeks after Mirabel took care of Miguel and she was back to her regular days, until one morning she felt her throat on was on fire and her head was pounding so hard that she felt it might explode any minute; but still she persistes in getting her day started so she wobbled all the way down stairs where she met the concerned eyes of her family.
"Buenos Dias mi Famila ". Mirabel mumbled as she put a hand to her head
"Are you okay Mira you look very pale?" Dolores asked
"Hm I'm fine". She replied
"Really cause you don't look like it". Camilo added
"Guys it's okay I'm fine". She reassures
She then sneezed as she covered her mouth with her hand and Juileta sighed as she gave her daughter an arepa.
"Mariposa that cough tells us otherwise". Bruno saddened
"Your Tio's right up to bed come on". Pepa guided Mirabel up to bed
So with that Pepa guided her to the bed and covered her with the blankets to keep her nice and warm and she had cuddled into her pillow and Pepa smiled at her nube as she asked Casita to go and move the towel to her beside table as she fills up some warm water; When Pepa comes back she rinses the towel in water and places it on her head as she watches she Sonbrina smile and it melts her heart as she tries not to let the weather get in the way especially has sunshine .
For the next couple of hours there is peace as Mirabel sleeps and while the rest are doing chores or doing what ever they want for their days off, Mirabel enjoys the sleep occasionally waking up to eat and drink to help her get better.
Miguel had come very worried for his love as she hadn't sent anything or heard from Isa in a while so he went and found them and smiled.
"Miguel we weren't expecting to see you here Primo ". Dolores called
"I get worried and decided to see if Mira is okay?" He asked
"She is sleeping I figured she must have caught your cold". Dolores started
"I told her not to come visit ". Miguel shook his head
"But we know she is…" Dolores stopped
"Stubborn ". They both finished
The two laughed it off as they went to the kitchen and went to go help.
For the next couple of hours Miguel talked as he helped the rest of the family or caught up with them as his Mirabel rested.
"Your kidding". Isabela laughed
"No not joking Juan got fired on the spot". Miguel continued
"Well serves him right for trying to steal your songs luckily you caught him, I'd say history may have repeated itself ". Luisa added
"You've got that right… anyway I'm gonna go check on Mira Okay?" He asked
"Sure make sure to take the.." she started
"Camomile tea I got it". He called
Juileta and Isabela smiled knowing that thier Mirabel had found the love of life and he is a great man and cares for her deeply.
"Aww would you look at that, Our Mirabel She found a great man". Augustin added
"Si, Papá a very great man indeed and a very awesome hermano if I do say myself ". Luisa smiled
"That's true". Dolores whispered
They went off and smiled and laughed as they went and helped with dinner, Meanwhile Miguel was upstairs and just opened the door to find Mirabel sitting up In her bed reading a book with a smile on her face.
"Hola Mi vida". Miguel waved as held the cup of tea in his hand
"What are you doing here?" She asked
"Well I was getting worried and I decided to check on you and luckily Antonio sent Pico so I knew something was up". Miguel exclaimed
"And plus I wanted to wait until you woke up, so I helped Isa with her plants and talked to Lu for a while all in all pretty good day so far". Miguel chuckled
"You didn't have to". Mirabel rasped
"I wanted to Besides I know how stubborn you can be". Miguel laughed
"Hey". She smiled
"No I mean you shouldn't be because you might get sick again and also I am used to dealing with this alone". She added
"Hey, you caught my cold so I shall help you get better and I should be immune and second of all your not alone anymore you've got me and I promise to take care of you always you shouldn't be handing things yourself all the time". Miguel replied
"Okay you got me". Mirabel put her hands up in surrender
"That reminds me here". He handed her the cup of tea
"Camomile How did you-"Mirabel started
"You told me it was your favourite and especially helps when your sick". Miguel smiled
"You remembered ". Mirabel sighed
"Of course I did, what do you think I wouldn't remember what you like especially when you're sick.. Never not a million years". Miguel added
"You really are Mi Príncipe". Mirabel chuckled
"Of course always and forever". He replied
He sat on the bed and cuddled close to her and got a good look at what she was reading ' El monstruo de amor' read the cover and he smiled.
"Fantasy helps you rest huh". Miguel sighed
"Si, it calms me". She chuckled lightly
For the rest of the day he told jokes and stories and laughed and she smiled and laughed to somehow it made her feel a little bit better.
"Thank you for doing this". Mirabel replies
" Si por supuesto mi amor para siempre ". He smiled
Bruno had stopped walking for a minute and watched the sight as the two cuddled and smiled, Bruno chuckled knowing that his Mariposa was with a great man who loves and treats her like a princess and he was proud to call him Mijo he sighed and smiled as he walked away.
Bruno already knew what the future has in store for these two and he couldn't wait to see when the time came.
