Façade

The crowd whispered uneasily as the door faded and the little boy stood in front of it, shocked, scared and still trying to comprehend what happened.He looked towards his Abuela's face, looking for hope and someone to tell him that everything will be okay, only to find her stone cold expression staring back at him, perplexed and definitely not the loving look she had been giving him just a few seconds ago.Meanwhile, dark thunderclouds filled the formerly starry sky, reflecting his mother's mood as she tried to keep it together for him.He didn't understand.He didn't understand any of it.A little part of him died that day, right along with his door.---------------------------------------------------------Or an AU where Camilo is the one who doesn't receive a gift.Nothing and everything changes at the same time.
