#julieta didnt even ask tk stay with osma

[sea-owl]

A drabble for my officially dubbed Seer Julieta au. First post here

I'll probably post mire of these as I think of them.

During the time it takes for Casita to be rebuilt the Madrigals are housed by different villagers. Osma Pezmureto was only supposed to be housing Augustin and Julieta but there hasn't been one night where Julieta didn't have at least one daughter glued to her. Then during the day Bruno and Pepa were the ones fighting for the attention of their hermana.

Honestly it was very overwhelming after isolating herself for 10 years.

This is how Julieta had ended up quietly going back to Osma's house, claiming she felt tired to Augustin.

"Oh! Julieta!" Osma jumped in her seat, knees banging against the table, and a few green hair beads rolled off the tabel. Osma's face flushed as she scrambled to collect the beads. "I didn't think you would be back yet."

Julieta picked up a spare bead that fell on the floor. "Don't get up on my account. It just gets a little suffocating being thrown back among so many people at once. Besides for whatever reason Bruno and Pepa won't come in here."

Julieta didn't see Osma wince.

Julieta sits down across from Osma. She twirls on of the beads between her fingers. "Honestly I'm more surprised to find you still living here."

Osma furrowed her brows. "What do you mean?"

Julieta holds up one of the beads. "These hair beads were Bruno's first courting gift to you. I remember Felix helping him make them. I honestly thought you two would have been married by now."

Osma smiles down sadly at the beads, her face flushed. "So thats why he was going to give me these."

Julieta scrunched her brows. "Osma?"

Osma shook her head. "Bruno and I haven't talked in a long time."

Julieta narrowed her eyes. "What did Brunito do?"

Osma drppped the beads again. "No, no, no! It was my fault. It was probably about a year after you left. Bruno had taken on as an acting second parent to the girls."

"Yes, and I'm grateful for that." Julieta glanced to the side. She truly was grateful that her brother was there for her family when she couldn't and as she told Mirabel she would do it all over again. But sometimes when the girls looked surprised to see Julieta walking with Augustin instead of their Tio, or when Julieta offers to do something motherly and then they awkwardly stare. Of course they wouldn't want it from their creepy-

Osma covered Julieta's hand with her own.

No, they love you and you love them. Julieta thought to herself. It's just gonna take time. You've only been openly around them for a week. Things will get better.

Julieta smiled. "Go on Osma."

Osma saueezed Julieta's hand. "Mirabel kept asking about you. She wanted to know anything and everything about you, but-"

"We don't talk about Julieta." Both woman said.

Osma nodded. "Si. It was Mirabel's sixth birthday and one of the things she really wanted was her mama. So I told her a story."

Julieta let out a small gasp. "Osma you didn't."

Osma bit her lip. "I did."

Julieta busted out laughing. "You told Mirabel about the dead fish prophecy!?

Osma started laughing too. "I thought it would make her smile."

"Did you tell her we were kids and that you hated that fish?"

Osma grinned. "Yup, told her I met her mama when I went up to her demanding to know how to kill my fish. Because deapite my last name I can't stand fish."

Julieta wiped a tear.

Osma's smile dropped. "Bruno overheard me. He wasn't too happy, thought I was like some of the other villagers who thought the worst of you. We got into a big fight over it. After we never spoke to each other again."

Julieta sighed, "You always had a temper, and Brunito always got a little stupid around you."

Osma shrugged, there was not much she could say.

Julieta thought back to an old tablet, one that showed a couple in love. Both dressdd in green. She had beads in her hair and he wore a ruana. Julieta picked up a bead.

"I believe in second chances, that someone can learn from their mistakes. Osma do you want to change your hair beads?"

Julieta smirked as Bruno dropped the tool he was holding for the thousandth time. She has made sure to stay near Osma today. The green beads shimmered in her hair when the light hit them just right.

The rats don't have to worry. They'll see their mama again soon.
