10 a.m.

I'm laying on my bed, or should I say laying on a bed that's gonna be mine for a month? Well, that doesn't matter, I'm still admiring the beauty of Valle de Cocora, and I'm wondering what it's like to have a gift. If I'd have a gift, it would be mind reading. I was always insecure of what people think about me and with the gift, I could help the villagers get what they would need at the moment just by looking in their thoughts

Or maybe it would be telekinesis? That's a cool power too! I could help with similar tasks Luisa has to do. Or maybe a gift that would make anything come to life just by drawing it? I'm not an artist but I like to draw

Suddenly the door to my room opened..

Matthew: "River! How long are we gonna be here? How can I go back! This is nonsense, I don't wanna live in a stupid Disney movie for children!"

He made an annoyed face just like when I first saw him downstairs. Poor him, I'm kinda enjoying it here

"We're gonna be here for a month, there's no way back!" I teasingly smiled at him

"I'm dreaming, right? Like, how is this possible, how did we get here?! Magic's not real!"

"Nope, magic is real when you believe in it, and you're not dreaming, I don't know how to make you believe all this!" I stood up and pushed him towards the door.
"Go make friends so you're not bored in the meantime, and don't forget the gift ceremony's at 6.30 p.m."

"What the heck is a gift ceremony? Are we like giving gifts to each other? I'm not buying things for the whole village!"

"You're right, I forgot, go buy a gift for Antonio, I'm gonna buy something myself."

"TELL ME WHAT IS THE GIFT CEREMONY AND WHO IS ANTONIO!"

"Alright, alright, cielos-"
"A gift ceremony is a Madrigal's event where when you turn 5 you're getting a gift, y'know, the magical powers like Bruno has the gift to see the future. It's today and we're going. We're buying a gift for Antonio, the kid that's gonna get his gift today. The whole village is getting a gift for him."

"So like a birthday party?.. wait, since when do you know Spanish?"

"I have my ways, and well yeah but no. It's his birthday today but we're celebrating the ceremony and only the Madrigals celebrate his birthday which they did in the morning probably."

Matthew left the house and I left 5 minutes after him to get a gift for Antonio which I completely forgot about.

I was walking down the market, and then I saw Isabela. I thought about a gift for Antonio that would be a portrait of him made out of flowers so I asked Isabela if she would make me one.

"Hey Isa- I mean, hello!"

"Hi, I've never seen you around before, are you new?"

"Yeah, I am and I have a question"

"Sure, go ahead"

"I somehow figured out what's your gift and uhh.. do you think you could make a portrait of Antonio out of flowers? I wanted to give him that as a gift." I grabbed a frame out of my bag and showed it to her
