You helped Camilo up and silently walked out of the cell.

"This way" Carlos led

"There's actually a shortcut right there" Mirabel smiled as she suggested the dark tunnel

"That's how you got in?" Camilo asked

A man's silhouette disturbed the view from your back.
His tall figure shadowed the dusty floor

"Where do you think you're going?!"

Carlos pushed everyone as the man rushed towards the tunnel

"Mirabel Hurry!" He yelled as the man kept getting closer

Carlos jumped up the tunnel when the man grabbed his leg

"Get off me" He barked as he kicked him off

You had finally reached the land but the tension remained

"Are you guys okay?" Mirabel worried

"Carlos!" You stopped him on his tracks
"Thank you for-" you tried to thank the boy but he just rolled his eyes and walked away with a clenched jaw and fist and walked away

"What's up with him?" Mirabel asked

"I don't know" you shrugged
"I need to go home now" you added

You ran back to your house and immediately climbed up your window

You stared at the blank view with the heavy locket in your hand.
Doubt crept in but you opened it again despite the second thoughts

The memories' POV:

"So short stuff, what're you up to?"
Carlos asked resting his arms on your shoulder

"I don't know, maybe helping mom around" You replied

He wrapped his arms together and pressed his lips
"I've actually been meaning to tell you something"

You looked at him with a cocked eyebrow

He looked hesitant

"I think..." He pressed his eyes shut
"You want me to be your boyfriend" He added

You scoffed and rolled your eyes
"If you want me to be your girlfriend, just say it, Cabron"

"Okay okay, Do you wanna be my girlfriend?" He smiled shyly pulling out a beautifully bloomed chocolate cosmo from his pockets and handed them to you delicately

"Yes"

You traveled everywhere and everything was the dream life.

He held your hand in every sunsets
He wrapped his arms around you at sunrises
He looks at you the same way he looked at you for the first time
He smiles at you every moonlight

Dimension by Dimension, your bond, your love,your moments, your spots were always the same

"No matter what Dimension, I'd still choose you"

Everything was great until one afternoon

"Do you see what all this Dating whatsoever has gotten you?!" Your mom dragged you away from Carlos with raging eyes

"You're failing school!" She scolded

She glared at Carlos

"You! You are a bad influence!" She yelled

She took the necklace and broke it.
She dragged you out.
Everything blacked out.

Back to your POV:

The moment the Jewelry shattered, the hurt in his eyes, your useless begs stung like thousand needles on your brain

The haunting memories the locket gave lasted for hours.

You swam in thoughts.
In questions.
In pain.

You rushed downstairs and disturbed the agonizing silence

Your parents weren't there.

You kicked their door open and there they were

"Mom, Dad, When are you going to tell me?" You cried as you held onto the doorframe

"Were you even going to tell me?!" You yelled

They looked troubled and sad

They took each other's hand and spoke

"Darling, we're sorry we wanted what's best for you"

"Is manipulating my memories best for me?! How'd you even implant these crappy fake memories in my head?!" you couldn't help but cry

You were hurt and mad.
