So I said:
“Where am I now?”
Miguel: Hello and Welcome to a world where everything you thought was good, nice, loving those words have no meaning there, but not for long, because this world is pure horrible beyond any of those meaning of those cruel words. My name is Miguel, I’m part of The Rivera Family or I was part of The Rivera Family and I used to, but not anymore, How did I get here, the place where Hector also known as the true musician of Santa Cecilia and the grandfather of Coco and me, also Imelda’s husband had been all those years ago, Well, I’m still trying to figure that out by myself and my own. Not to mention I did tell the whole history of that man, Imelda, their daughter and Imelda’s family a long time ago. This is my story here and this is where I’ll explain about why I’m no longer in this Rivera Family anymore.
It all started a while back when that stupid, selfish, useless, foolish, crazy fantasy, annoying, pathetic, worthless, disobedient, bossy brainwashed, fat, dumb, jerk ugly, maniac, heartless, coward, lying, psycho, bullying, tyrant, big, fat fascist, smashing no guitar, no music, stinky idiot old bitch pig hag monster cheapskate troublemaker naughty rat meanie cursed nag loser failure son of a thief , named Abuelita Elena who is Coco’s daughter and who was my grandma but not anymore, has been stupidly taking my love of music, everywhere, inside, outside, away from me, for being a complete selfish troublesome cow to all the Santa Cecilia musicians, including the Mariachi, who is my biggest fan, especially Dante who is not even a street dog, he is my pet, some people have pets which is fine and especially me, she is doing all of this for nothing at all. It’s not only her it also those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s which they stupidly hate music too, plus they’re always so fool of themselves, they just like shining, making shoes which isn’t fun and it’s so boring. This is like they’re just abusing me, in fact nobody, especially children like me don’t deserve to be abuse at all, they deserve to be treated better and fairly. Next I only wanted to have time for myself, get away from that Big Fat Meanie Pig, also I only wanted to talk about that man which I didn’t know about before I did later on, but she didn’t believe me and just shushed me, she never believes in me she only believes in herself stupidity especially those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s, They have no respect for that Plaza at all, they only have respect for themselves. Worst of all, they stupidly think that I keep secrets from my own family, which I don’t, I’m only defending my love of music and that Hector’s music was a crazy fantasy and a curse which isn’t true at all, they thought wrong and lie, they always do, they’re being a crazy fantasy, and those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s especially Big Fat Meanie Pig are also the curse this whole time, because they also have no respect for music at all. Not to mention, that clumsy old man, Enrique who was my Papa, but no more stupidly said That man abandoned his family, This is no future for his son, you will listen to your family, no more music, that’s a lie, music can be important for future, that man did not abandoned his family, this is yes future for his son and they should listen to me and yes more music. Even worst, Big Fat Meanie Pig, stupidly said I want to be like that man, forgotten, and left his family on some ofrenda, that’s a complete fraud, he is not forgotten and he did not left his family on some ofrenda, also I actually don’t care if I’m on some stupid no good for nothing, No music Family, then that pig stupidly destroyed my guitar, stupidly said no guitar and no music, it’s yes guitar, yes music, which was just like that man’s which made me so cross I ran away from those rats. Because of That big fat jerk ruined everything, I couldn’t play in The Plaza without a instrument or a guitar, so I tried asking some people if I can borrow his or her guitar or if they have a spare on but they don’t, I was so disappointed not because of them, it’s those troublemaker Rivera’s. So I went to De La Cruz’s tomb cause I’m suppose to do whatever it takes to seize my moment, I went inside the tomb I confronted Ernesto not to be mad, I was his great great grandson I just wanted to borrow his guitar, The Rivera’s think music was a curse, none of them understand, but I know he does, he always haves me follow my heart to seize my moment and if it’s alright with him I’m going to play in The Plaza just like he did so I played the guitar then the marigolds flew around me. If it weren’t for those Rivera’s especially that big fat jerk, I still would’ve enjoyed a better life. I ended up in The Land Of The Dead, where the living people can’t see me because they thought I was trying to steal the guitar but I wasn’t, I would never steal from anyone, also Dante can see me. That’s where I saw my other family, Imelda can’t come because her wasn’t Putten up because earlier Dante accidentally went on the ofrenda ate some of the food, I pulled him off then her photo which includes Mama Coco and that man fell and the frame had broken. Which I also discovered that man’s gutiar. They took me to The Land of The Dead where I explore everything The Marigold Bridge, The Alebrijes, The Skeletons, and everything else. Later while we were having a long walk or tour we ended up seeing that office where lots of people would need help, then that’s where I saw Imelda in a bad mood because one of those office people said to her no one put up her photo. She confronted that office worker her family always always put her photo on the ofrenda and the devil box tells her nothing but lies then she used her shoe to destroy the computer. The family met up with her, she confronted them they won’t let her cross the bridge, to tell the worker about that devil box, the family told her they never made it to the ofrenda and they ran into me, even Imelda was surprised to see me and asked me what is going on, then other worker opened the door and called for us to come inside. He even said to me and think I was curse and thought I stole from the dead. But I wasn’t stealing the guitar, it was my great great grandfather’s he would’ve wanted me to have it. But Imelda wouldn’t listen because she thinks that we shouldn’t speak for that musician, he’s dead to this family. Even though I tried my hardest to become a musician by finding a other way because Mama Imelda, Tia Rosita, Papa Julio, Tia Victoria, Oscar and Felipe won’t let me, in-fact they broke their promise, they should’ve listened to me, they should look out for theirselves and be reasonable, also we should speak for that musician, he’s not dead to this family. I should go down the same path like Hector did. Also she wouldn’t even give me her blessing if I wished to be a musician, she just fooling herself and so is the rest of the family too. Also the way to undo a family curse is to get your family’s blessing then everything should go back to normal but I have to do it by sunrise otherwise I’ll turn into an actual skeleton and never get home. I’ve been trying my best to prove them wrong, I don’t want to give up on music, I needed a musician’s blessing. So I snuck away from them along with Dante then one of the guards founded me but some skeletons got in the way I was able to slip away from them, next I overheard that skeleton who knows about Ernesto talking to one of the officers, which later he is Hector. I convinced Hector I needed some help and I just wanted to become a musician. I did agreed to put his photo up, Hector also used shoe polish to make me look like a skeleton so that I would blend in and that no one in The Land Of The Dead would see my true face and body, but he just wanted to cross that bridge soon, he also asked me if I have some other family, but I only wanted De La Cruz’s blessing, I could’ve told him about the other family then things would’ve gotten better. After getting the answers of where De La Cruz was, he was hosting a party at his tower, because I thought he was at the place where he was preparing for his Sunrise Spectacular Show but he wasn’t there, then borrowed a guitar from Hector’s friend, me, Hector and Dante went to The Plaza De La Cruz. I was on fire after playing one of the most upbeat songs “Poco Loco”, but then I saw the family looking for me because they also bought Pepita along with them too, I tired to get away from them, but it was too late, The Emcee announced that the family was looking for me, I got into an argument with Hector, he thinks that I lied, but I would never lie because if it wasn’t for my family’s actions and if the other family let me be a musician things would’ve been different and better, I was in a bad mood because Hector said I wanted to live on some stupid musical fantasy which it’s not stupid, I threw his photo in his face because I felt like he wasn’t helping me and that he just cares about himself, so I ran away by myself and by my own from him and Dante. Even though Imelda and Pepita tried to stop me, I still was able to escape from them by going through that iron gate, when I was heading to the party, I thought Imelda hated music because I heard her singing, she actually loved music, she explained everything about her past with Coco and her husband. They each made a sacrifice to get what they want and she told me to make a choice. But I don’t want to pick sides, why can’t anyone be in my side, that’s what family is suppose to do support anyone but she never will, so I continued off to the party. Eventually I made it there by getting past the security guards by joining the band who had won first place, they said I was on fire and so they were, because they won’t let me. I got to the party it looked amazing, lots of people, then I saw De La Cruz, I tried to catch up to him, but it was crowded I ended up inside where there was even more people chatting, music and I even saw De La Cruz’s movies too. I tried calling out to De La Cruz but he couldn’t hear me because it was so crowded and he was busy talking to some people, at first I was disappointed but when I saw one of his movies that I’ve seen earlier it gave me an idea, So I went to the top and played “The World Es Mi Familia” which got everyone’s attention, when I was playing that song I walked over to De La Cruz the skeletons let me through, I was getting close to him, but I fell into the pool because I wasn’t looking where I was going, the water also removed the disguise off my face, De La Cruz rescued me, I told him I need his blessing so that I can go home and be musician just like he was so that I would prove The Rivera’s wrong because they wouldn’t listen but I hope he would. Ernesto would gladly help me out, I gave him a hug and lifted me up into his back and he said “I have a great great grandson”, the crowd cheered and I hugged him on the head. At first, I was enjoying having a great time with Ernesto, but later before I can get his blessing, Hector arrived, he told me he knew him, before I could get his photo Ernesto took it first before I could, when he saw Hector he could see that he was being forgotten then Hector mentioned who’s fault was that, about his songs also Ernesto told no one that he actually wrote them, I thought De La Cruz wrote all his own songs, Ernesto said that he never meant to take credit, he, Hector made a great team but he died and he only sang his songs because he wanted to keep part of him alive, which Hector thinks that it was generous and it doesn’t make any sense. I thought to myself they really did play together, Hector didn’t want to fight about it he just wants Ernesto to make it right, He wants me to put my photo up, so that he can cross over the bridge and he can see his girl. Hector also mentioned about his past the night he left, which was a long time ago he, Ernesto drank together and told me that he would move heaven and earth for him amigo, just like in De La Cruz’s movie the one that I saw earlier before Hector came and this is where I learned the truth, the night Hector left, he and Ernesto had performing on the road for months, Hector had changed his mind so he felt homesick, packed up his songs and everything. Ernesto thought he wanted to give up and were this close to reaching their dreams but he did no such thing and he would never give up. Hector confronted him that this was his dream that he’ll manage, Ernesto tries to tell him that he can’t do this without his songs but Hector wanted to go home because his mind was changed, it’s always important to make up up your mind, your own decisions and that’s okay. Then Ernesto came up with something he had never done in his life he confronted Hector he would never hate him, if he must go then he would send him off with a toast, he gave Hector a drink and said “To our friendship, I would move Heaven and Earth for you Amigo, Salud” then after the farewell toast that’s when it happened, Ernesto walked with Hector to the train station but Hector felt a pain in his stomach at first he thought he ate something but it turns out he drank something that was poisonous which killed him and he woke up dead. It turned out Ernesto poisoned him, Ernesto thinks that he was confusing movies with reality and all this time Hector thought it was just bad luck, Ernesto had taken his book which had all his songs, then his guitar, which made him furious he tackled Ernesto after learning about what actually happened, I tried to stop Hector but De La Cruz called his security guards to take him away, I just found out that Ernesto took everything away from Hector, and also Hector had been wanting to go back home this whole time. After the guards took Hector away, Ernesto was supposed to give me his blessing, but his reputation that was very important to him he hate me to think that he murdered Hector for his songs, Ernesto knows nothing about it and asked me do I, At first I didn’t know about and told him everyone knows that he’s the good guy, he looked at Hector’s photo then put it in his shirt pocket, I tried convince him my blessing, but his security guards took me away too and telling them that I would extend my stay. Ernesto confronted me that Hector was my best friend, success doesn’t come for free, you’ll have to be willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment and I know that’ll understand. Then Ernesto guards shut the doors as he walked away. It turned out everything that Ernesto told me was a lie. I tried to struggle from Ernesto’s security guards but they were too strong and they threw me into the sinkhole then I fell into the water, I got soaked wet and coughing. I got to the shore and tried calling for help, but no one can hear me, I fell down to my knees because I must’ve thought too soon. When I saw Hector I hugged him and realized he was right all along about everything, he forgave me, but then I saw something gold on him, he was shaking and she (Hector’s daughter) was forgetting him. She’s the reason he wanted to cross the bridge. Hector wanted to see her again, regretted leaving Santa Cecilia, he wish he could apologize, and tell that her papa was trying to come home that he loved her so much, his Coco. I showed him the photo of Mama Coco, Mama Imelda, and him, I realized that man was him this whole time. Hector hope that he see her again and told me everything about her. He wished that he could see her in The Land Of The Dead and give her the biggest hug ever. The moment she arrived in The Land of The Dead and was gone in The Living World he disappeared from this one he’ll never get to see her ever again. He also told me he wrote her a song once they use to sing it every night no matter how apart they so he sang it to her one last time, Remember Me. After he sang that song, I finally realized De La Cruz stole his guitar and his songs. Hector should be the greatest musician that the world remembers all this time not De La Cruz, Hector told me he didn’t write Remember Me for the world he wrote it for Coco and he’s really sorry excuse for a great great grandpa. Like a minute ago I thought I was related murderer but he’s a total upgrade, I realized everything and I know it comes from Hector, fortunately help has arrived Dante came to the rescue including Imelda and Pepita. After getting rescued, also Dante became an Alebrije, I tried to own up for Hector and tell Imelda what actually happened this whole time but Imelda didn’t believe me and Hector, although she will help Hector and me get his photo back from De La Cruz so that he can see Coco, In fact Hector should be on our ofrenda he’s part of this family because we shouldn’t forget him. We got to the Sunrise Spectacular Show, we had to disguise ourselves so that no one can see us in the stage, we came up with the plan, Find De La Cruz, Get Hector’s photo, give it to me, send me home and we got our pedals. We found De La Cruz, then Imelda grabbed her shoes slapped him in the face because that’s what he gets for murdering the love of her life and for trying to müder her grandson then we found Hector’s photo but he ran away, we ran after him, fought against his security guards, we got his photo but Imelda was lifting up into the stage where she sang her song, the guards try to catch her even De La Cruz but she got past them, after singing her song she was on fire and forgotten it felt like. Hector said that she still got it. Just before I can touch the pedal and go back to The Land Of The Living, De la Cruz grabbed me, I tried to struggle but I couldn’t, even Dante tried to pull me to safety but De La Cruz was to powerful, my jacket came loose , so The Family had to report this to everyone and at first they felt confused, when I told De La Cruz that he was a coward, he lied to me that he was the greatest musician of all time, Hector is the real musician and I told him that he murdered him and stole his songs which made the crowd shocked, then he grabbed me and said to me “I am The One who’s willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment whatever it takes” then he threw me off the stage and I began falling down, which made The family and the crowd shocked even more. Dante tried to save me put he wasn’t strong enough then Hector’s photo flew away from me and just before I could die, Pepita rescued me just in time but I lost Hector’s photo, it fell into the water and it was gone. Everyone who had heard everything was mad about De La Cruz, but they cheered after Pepita got me to safety and after De La Cruz got defeated by getting crushed by that giant bell the same thing that happened in 1942. After De La Cruz was defeated, I congratulated Dante’ Imelda hugged me relief that I was safe but Hector was starting to faint, I told him about the photo but he said it’s okay then he started to die, be forgotten, I tried to convince everyone we can still find the photo, but Imelda told me it’s almost sunrise, I don’t want to leave Hector, I promised him, to put up his photo, he can see Coco, they gave me their blessing, Imelda said no conditions, and I promised Hector that Coco won’t forget him then I was sent back to The Land Of The Living. I grabbed the guitar and headed back home, but just before I can get to Mama Coco, Abuelita blocked my way and when she saw the guitar she tried to grab it but I got past her, got to Coco’s room locked the door so that she won’t cause anymore trouble. I tried to help Coco by telling her that I saw Hector and everything else about him but she didn’t hear me. But Abuelita unaware of what truly happened unlocked the door selfishly ordered me to apologize to Coco because she stupidly and mistakenly thought I was trying to hurt and bother Coco but I wasn’t and I did no such thing at all. But before I can play the guitar and sing Remember Me to Coco just like Hector did, Abuelita rudely interrupts, wrongfully yelling at me, not listening to and thinking to herself clearly to apologize to Coco again that was her big mistake then I stopped crying, tears stopped flowing in my eyes then suddenly something flared high into my head. I had enough of Abuelita’s stupidity, was having none of it as my sadness turned to enraged that I was told off for no reason. As I thought about everything that fatty and those troublemakers done, said to me and hearing their words made me very mad, cross, angry, furious, fed up with all of this, felt insulted, disgusted by my family’s especially Fatty’s callousness and their selfish actions. My face turned red my arms, fists, hands clenched with anger, I snapped, lost patience and lose my temper. Instead of playing the guitar and singing Remember Me to Coco just like Hector did, I turned around bravely in front of fatty and The troublemaker Rivera’s with a frown on my face, I shouted, yelled angrily back in return, scolding Fatty furiously of being responsible for nothing, for not looking at the full, whole picture, not thinking clearly, carefully to herself, blaming me for something I didn’t even do, for selfishly accusing, treating me like a criminal without evidence and I yelled at fatty and those troublemakers to stop it, be quiet, shut up, knock it off, cut it off, snap out of it, enough of this stupid annoying pathetic no music nonsense and silence, I yelled so loudly my raging voice echoed around Santa Cecilia, leaving everyone shocked, horrified, Luisa petrified, scared, Enrique stunned, terrified and fatty of course blue in the face and shocked as well.
After yelling back at those troublemakers and Fatty old hag, I scolded them furiously that they have caused so much confusion and delay, I never do anything wrong and for not listening to me they never did. I also add that they just completely ignored all the important and good reasons that music should be important for everyone’s lives. Music is suppose to bring, connect family, people, everyone together, it can also improve anyone’s health, well being, builds confidence, resilience, it is also a creative outlet, it can be helpful, whenever people are having a hard time, stress or when anyone is having a bad day or whatever reason, very important, like in a performance, practicing for a concert, talent show or anything events, powerful, useful like it can help you out when you’re feeling down, it can give you hope, strength, focus more, rich, famous, popular, it can help your feelings, emotions, it can make you sleep better, for babies when they sleep, or whatever reason too, lastly it is fun like parties, birthdays, Christmas, camping, activities, school, or anything or anywhere around the world. Music can be cool and groovy if we treated each other fairly. I even told them the true story of Hector, what I really saw, heard, telling them everything, telling them off that Hector’s music wasn’t a crazy fantasy and it wasn’t curse at all, which Mama Coco fortunately hears it, remembers Hector, suddenly wakes up and was watching. Next I tell them off that they just completely jumped to conclusions, for not finding out the whole truth and it’s always important to learn, know the facts, what really, truly, and actually happened first. They’ve just completely blown and ignored all those important words of advice, they should’ve known all of that and the family at The Land Of The Dead should’ve too. I even scolded that clumsy old man because earlier he said “What’s got into you?”, so I said it back to him, plus I’m not sorry, he should be sorry, because music can be useful for future, This is yes Future for his son but I’m not his son no more, yes more music, I hate shinning shoes it’s boring, it’s nothing, not only he should be sorry those troublemakers losers including fatty cause so much trouble, also, I even said to that stupid cow I am no longer in this together it’s over, and it’s denied. I even scolded that fat bodied cheapskate because yesterday he said to that mariachi “shame on you”, so not shame on him, shame on himself, all of them, they ignored and annoyed me for the last and final time, that fatty show off he just called me shine shoes and I’m not, I’m a musician, that stupid dummy nitwit weirdo said I have to have talents for a talent show and of course I do have talents for a talent show. I scolded fatty old hag for everything she said and done to me, selfishly taking my love of music away, for being a complete stupid idiot to all of The Santa Cecilia musicians, lying to that Mariachi, he did nothing wrong, either did I, he is my fan or my friend, being a complete jerk to Dante, he is my pet, not a street dog, for saying nonsense about Hector, breaking my guitar, and if she did the same thing to Hector’s, it’s over, there’s nothing I can do to save Hector from being forgotten, also without this guitar me and Hector are nothing. I do respect care for my family, but their all obviously too ignorant to listen to any other side of the story or anything and stick to what they think, Like I said they have no respect for music at all, they have no love of music in their hearts, their completely heartless, they only have respect for theirselves, everyone loves music, I love music too, their the ones that don’t care especially Imelda and the others, their the ones breaking everything, their like mocking me, their just rubbing it in. Plus children don’t deserve to be abused at all they deserve to be treated fairly and have a better life. They don’t want to support, care, help, believe, trust, respect, listen to me, they only want to support, care, help, believe, trust, respect, and listen to theirselves. Everyone should respect and understand about each other about everything, no one is the same we people are different. The music miracle and the love of my music is dying because of Fatty and all of those troublemaker Rivera’s. Not to mention it’s okay to say no sometimes if people or children don’t want it but just politely. It can be fair too but not for music, people can eat as much as they want but not too much, they should control theirselves. This no music nonsense was stupid, it’s so pathetic, it was driving me crazy, I’m sick of their actions, they thought wrong they always do, This stupid no good for nothing No Music rat thief family is being so clueless and helpless of the good things we should always do without checking it first, they just can’t stop saying this stupid thing, no one likes that, neither do I. I am the greatest, number one musician, I am also 100% man, of all times, no one takes my love of music away from me, no one can stand up against, mess with me and I can stand firm against them all. Music is the only thing that makes me happy, it’s beautiful, cool, groovy, if we treat each other fairly, I can be whatever I want, anyone can be anything when they grow up, also nobody is the same, we people are different, this is also my hobby, people, including kids all ages have different hobbies too, they don’t have to be the same as other people’s. Why in the world can’t those troublemakers and Fatty can’t trust and take me seriously, they just can’t control their feelings, emotions, their actions, their behaviors and theirselves. Also music is not their problem at all, it’s their heart, they deserve what they gotten. I even told them what I had really did with Coco was that the top of that I was helping her remember Hector, so she won’t forget him, he won’t be forgotten, he’s part of this family this whole time. I even don’t want to pick sides why can’t they be on my side, that’s what family is supposed to do, support anyone, it’s always important to support others but they never will. Angry with their selfishness, their actions, everything they stupidly said, done to me, Afraid they won’t change their behaviors, not going to stop this no music madness and losing my love of music again, I betrayed, abandon, turn against Fatty, those troublemaker Rivera’s, no longer want to ever be in this family ever again and give up on them, retiring from shinning shoes because I had to put an end to Fatty’s stupidity and madness especially The Rivera’s actions, leave this crazy town forever, never come back, return ever again but this time for real and it had to be done. Also I said to Fatty old hag no more kisses, hugs and I’m not her Migueli – Ti – Ti – Ti – To no more Ti – Ti – Ti – To herself. I’ll no longer craft huaraches anymore and everything else is denied, plus I told them not to stand in my way, stay away keep away from me, go away and I even said if this is how they would treat me like this then I quit for good, there is no way I’ll have a family that treats me like this and I don’t want to hear any of this crazy nonsense because this is for everything they said and done to me. After all of that I went through the small drawer right beside Coco, got out a small red book and. I founded the missing piece of the picture of Hector, Imelda and Coco then I put the complete photo in my pocket. I have had it with those foolish troublemakers, I can’t take it and deal with this anymore, I told Fatty and The troublemaker Rivera’s there were extremely selfish, I can’t believe how selfish they all are, so this is it, after everything we’ve been through. They didn’t bother to know the whole truth from me, I have had enough of their stubbornness. Then I brutally punched fatty in the face, started beating her up, tackling, attacked, assaulting her, I grabbed my shoe, started hitting her in the nose, head, face as hard as I could, punched her in the eye, her jaw, bite her hands, arms, hardly, slapping her in the face, kicked her in the crotch, including her legs, stomping on her feet, as payback, without looking at other truth, and that was the last and final straw because this is for everything she said and done to me. That clumsy old man tried to stop me but I kicked him in the leg because this is what he deserved for what he said to me, then I grabbed her by the throat, straggling her, I warned her not to ruin my love of music, not to drive me crazy again, I shakes her like a rag doll, she’s not going to interfere or take everything away from me that I love ever again, I’m also willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment whatever it takes then I threw her outside of Coco’s room and into the wall severely injuring her, then I said to her I wish you weren’t my Abuelita anymore then I slapped Fatty in the face again. After Fatty’s punishment I grabbed the guitar, dashed out of Coco’s room, also I had the photo of Hector, Imelda and Coco. I packed my belongings, taped up the photo, putting it on a picture frame, writing this tell off message, and I put the complete photo of Hector, Imelda and Coco on top of the ofrenda, I used a stool to reach it there and I put the tell off message below the ofrenda. After scolding the other Rivera’s by glaring at their photos for everything they said and done to me, I raced away from the ofrenda, stormed off furiously from The Rivera House, I banged the doors opened, and I ran angrily away again from everyone with my belongings and the guitar growling in fury. Abuelita and The Rivera’s tried to apologize and stop me but I was already gone then I disappeared in the distance. Which made them especially Abuelita feel ashamed, guilty, awful, horrible terrible and regret. But before I leave this crazy town I had to keep Hector’s guitar safe from Fatty and those foolish troublemaker Rivera’s so that Hector can get it and that they won’t do anything bad to it. Fortunately I found those two women at The Plaza, one of them had that face paint that I met last night, and the other one who introduced the people of Santa Cecilia the staute of De La Cruz. When got to them, I told them, everything about Abuelita, my family, the truth about De La Cruz and that the guitar was actually Hector’s, he also wanted to keep it safe so that nothing bad happens to it, they understood and felt sorry for me after everything I’ve been through. I also told them that I was going to leave Santa Cecilia forever, never come back, return ever again, and that I decided to betray, abandon, turn against and never want to be in this Rivera Family ever again because I’ve been trying to be a musician, make my dream come true, I’ve been trying to make up for this, prove them wrong, but it only gotten worse, plus I asked them if there was a another guitar I can have since I had to keep Hector’s guitar safe for him. Plus I even said that I had enough living in Santa Cecilia and that I’m going to find a new place, better family, who loves music and live at for the rest of my life. They understood that too, they’ll look for a guitar for me, I also told them to meet me at the train station and they agreed. So they took Hector’s guitar to keep it safe, look for a spare guitar and while I was heading to the train station. But while I was on my way there, Enrique tries to stop and apologize to me for what he and the rest of the family said and done to me but I rejected it and said I wish you weren’t my papa, telling him to get out of here and stay away from me, which made him feel sad and heartbroken so he walked sadly away because I don’t want to face the consequences for nothing at all. Then I continued on, then I made it the train station, fortunately when I was waiting for the train to arrive, those two women that I was talking to earlier about everything I’ve been through and about De La Cruz had a guitar for me, it was from that mariachi the blue one I was chatting with yesterday he had a another one for me. After they gave me that spare guitar, I thanked them, I said farewell to them, they said farewell back to me, then the train arrived, it’s time I get out of this crazy town, I used my own money to buy a train ticket, I got into the train by climbing into a gusard van on the back, then as it was about to depart from Santa Cecilia, I sang I’m Not Part Of The Rivera Family Anymore first, then I sang Remember Me one last time, loud enough for Coco to hear with my new guitar which she fortunately heard it, then it sets off, departs away from Santa Cecilia, and disappeared in the distance. A little later I ended up at the same place where Hector at been all those years ago. Then I found a perfect place to hide so that no one can find me.
So this is my story, explains why I’m Not Part of This Rivera Family anymore, after everything I’ve been through and suffered, they wouldn’t listen and they don’t even understand at all. It’s time I teach big fatty meanie old hag pig a lesson especially that dumb old man, stupid cow, disgusting fat bodied cheapskate, fatty show off, stupid dummy nitwit, disgraceful ugly rat, clumsy slow poke, despicable smelly weirdo idiot crazy losers, they have crossed the line, get out of this crazy town and I am so done with this.”
“Where am I now?”
Miguel: Hello and Welcome to a world where everything you thought was good, nice, loving those words have no meaning there, but not for long, because this world is pure horrible beyond any of those meaning of those cruel words. My name is Miguel, I’m part of The Rivera Family or I was part of The Rivera Family and I used to, but not anymore, How did I get here, the place where Hector also known as the true musician of Santa Cecilia and the grandfather of Coco and me, also Imelda’s husband had been all those years ago, Well, I’m still trying to figure that out by myself and my own. Not to mention I did tell the whole history of that man, Imelda, their daughter and Imelda’s family a long time ago. This is my story here and this is where I’ll explain about why I’m no longer in this Rivera Family anymore.
It all started a while back when that stupid, selfish, useless, foolish, crazy fantasy, annoying, pathetic, worthless, disobedient, bossy brainwashed, fat, dumb, jerk ugly, maniac, heartless, coward, lying, psycho, bullying, tyrant, big, fat fascist, smashing no guitar, no music, stinky idiot old bitch pig hag monster cheapskate troublemaker naughty rat meanie cursed nag loser failure son of a thief , named Abuelita Elena who is Coco’s daughter and who was my grandma but not anymore, has been stupidly taking my love of music, everywhere, inside, outside, away from me, for being a complete selfish troublesome cow to all the Santa Cecilia musicians, including the Mariachi, who is my biggest fan, especially Dante who is not even a street dog, he is my pet, some people have pets which is fine and especially me, she is doing all of this for nothing at all. It’s not only her it also those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s which they stupidly hate music too, plus they’re always so fool of themselves, they just like shining, making shoes which isn’t fun and it’s so boring. This is like they’re just abusing me, in fact nobody, especially children like me don’t deserve to be abuse at all, they deserve to be treated better and fairly. Next I only wanted to have time for myself, get away from that Big Fat Meanie Pig, also I only wanted to talk about that man which I didn’t know about before I did later on, but she didn’t believe me and just shushed me, she never believes in me she only believes in herself stupidity especially those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s, They have no respect for that Plaza at all, they only have respect for themselves. Worst of all, they stupidly think that I keep secrets from my own family, which I don’t, I’m only defending my love of music and that Hector’s music was a crazy fantasy and a curse which isn’t true at all, they thought wrong and lie, they always do, they’re being a crazy fantasy, and those troublemaker foolish Rivera’s especially Big Fat Meanie Pig are also the curse this whole time, because they also have no respect for music at all. Not to mention, that clumsy old man, Enrique who was my Papa, but no more stupidly said That man abandoned his family, This is no future for his son, you will listen to your family, no more music, that’s a lie, music can be important for future, that man did not abandoned his family, this is yes future for his son and they should listen to me and yes more music. Even worst, Big Fat Meanie Pig, stupidly said I want to be like that man, forgotten, and left his family on some ofrenda, that’s a complete fraud, he is not forgotten and he did not left his family on some ofrenda, also I actually don’t care if I’m on some stupid no good for nothing, No music Family, then that pig stupidly destroyed my guitar, stupidly said no guitar and no music, it’s yes guitar, yes music, which was just like that man’s which made me so cross I ran away from those rats. Because of That big fat jerk ruined everything, I couldn’t play in The Plaza without a instrument or a guitar, so I tried asking some people if I can borrow his or her guitar or if they have a spare on but they don’t, I was so disappointed not because of them, it’s those troublemaker Rivera’s. So I went to De La Cruz’s tomb cause I’m suppose to do whatever it takes to seize my moment, I went inside the tomb I confronted Ernesto not to be mad, I was his great great grandson I just wanted to borrow his guitar, The Rivera’s think music was a curse, none of them understand, but I know he does, he always haves me follow my heart to seize my moment and if it’s alright with him I’m going to play in The Plaza just like he did so I played the guitar then the marigolds flew around me. If it weren’t for those Rivera’s especially that big fat jerk, I still would’ve enjoyed a better life. I ended up in The Land Of The Dead, where the living people can’t see me because they thought I was trying to steal the guitar but I wasn’t, I would never steal from anyone, also Dante can see me. That’s where I saw my other family, Imelda can’t come because her wasn’t Putten up because earlier Dante accidentally went on the ofrenda ate some of the food, I pulled him off then her photo which includes Mama Coco and that man fell and the frame had broken. Which I also discovered that man’s gutiar. They took me to The Land of The Dead where I explore everything The Marigold Bridge, The Alebrijes, The Skeletons, and everything else. Later while we were having a long walk or tour we ended up seeing that office where lots of people would need help, then that’s where I saw Imelda in a bad mood because one of those office people said to her no one put up her photo. She confronted that office worker her family always always put her photo on the ofrenda and the devil box tells her nothing but lies then she used her shoe to destroy the computer. The family met up with her, she confronted them they won’t let her cross the bridge, to tell the worker about that devil box, the family told her they never made it to the ofrenda and they ran into me, even Imelda was surprised to see me and asked me what is going on, then other worker opened the door and called for us to come inside. He even said to me and think I was curse and thought I stole from the dead. But I wasn’t stealing the guitar, it was my great great grandfather’s he would’ve wanted me to have it. But Imelda wouldn’t listen because she thinks that we shouldn’t speak for that musician, he’s dead to this family. Even though I tried my hardest to become a musician by finding a other way because Mama Imelda, Tia Rosita, Papa Julio, Tia Victoria, Oscar and Felipe won’t let me, in-fact they broke their promise, they should’ve listened to me, they should look out for theirselves and be reasonable, also we should speak for that musician, he’s not dead to this family. I should go down the same path like Hector did. Also she wouldn’t even give me her blessing if I wished to be a musician, she just fooling herself and so is the rest of the family too. Also the way to undo a family curse is to get your family’s blessing then everything should go back to normal but I have to do it by sunrise otherwise I’ll turn into an actual skeleton and never get home. I’ve been trying my best to prove them wrong, I don’t want to give up on music, I needed a musician’s blessing. So I snuck away from them along with Dante then one of the guards founded me but some skeletons got in the way I was able to slip away from them, next I overheard that skeleton who knows about Ernesto talking to one of the officers, which later he is Hector. I convinced Hector I needed some help and I just wanted to become a musician. I did agreed to put his photo up, Hector also used shoe polish to make me look like a skeleton so that I would blend in and that no one in The Land Of The Dead would see my true face and body, but he just wanted to cross that bridge soon, he also asked me if I have some other family, but I only wanted De La Cruz’s blessing, I could’ve told him about the other family then things would’ve gotten better. After getting the answers of where De La Cruz was, he was hosting a party at his tower, because I thought he was at the place where he was preparing for his Sunrise Spectacular Show but he wasn’t there, then borrowed a guitar from Hector’s friend, me, Hector and Dante went to The Plaza De La Cruz. I was on fire after playing one of the most upbeat songs “Poco Loco”, but then I saw the family looking for me because they also bought Pepita along with them too, I tired to get away from them, but it was too late, The Emcee announced that the family was looking for me, I got into an argument with Hector, he thinks that I lied, but I would never lie because if it wasn’t for my family’s actions and if the other family let me be a musician things would’ve been different and better, I was in a bad mood because Hector said I wanted to live on some stupid musical fantasy which it’s not stupid, I threw his photo in his face because I felt like he wasn’t helping me and that he just cares about himself, so I ran away by myself and by my own from him and Dante. Even though Imelda and Pepita tried to stop me, I still was able to escape from them by going through that iron gate, when I was heading to the party, I thought Imelda hated music because I heard her singing, she actually loved music, she explained everything about her past with Coco and her husband. They each made a sacrifice to get what they want and she told me to make a choice. But I don’t want to pick sides, why can’t anyone be in my side, that’s what family is suppose to do support anyone but she never will, so I continued off to the party. Eventually I made it there by getting past the security guards by joining the band who had won first place, they said I was on fire and so they were, because they won’t let me. I got to the party it looked amazing, lots of people, then I saw De La Cruz, I tried to catch up to him, but it was crowded I ended up inside where there was even more people chatting, music and I even saw De La Cruz’s movies too. I tried calling out to De La Cruz but he couldn’t hear me because it was so crowded and he was busy talking to some people, at first I was disappointed but when I saw one of his movies that I’ve seen earlier it gave me an idea, So I went to the top and played “The World Es Mi Familia” which got everyone’s attention, when I was playing that song I walked over to De La Cruz the skeletons let me through, I was getting close to him, but I fell into the pool because I wasn’t looking where I was going, the water also removed the disguise off my face, De La Cruz rescued me, I told him I need his blessing so that I can go home and be musician just like he was so that I would prove The Rivera’s wrong because they wouldn’t listen but I hope he would. Ernesto would gladly help me out, I gave him a hug and lifted me up into his back and he said “I have a great great grandson”, the crowd cheered and I hugged him on the head. At first, I was enjoying having a great time with Ernesto, but later before I can get his blessing, Hector arrived, he told me he knew him, before I could get his photo Ernesto took it first before I could, when he saw Hector he could see that he was being forgotten then Hector mentioned who’s fault was that, about his songs also Ernesto told no one that he actually wrote them, I thought De La Cruz wrote all his own songs, Ernesto said that he never meant to take credit, he, Hector made a great team but he died and he only sang his songs because he wanted to keep part of him alive, which Hector thinks that it was generous and it doesn’t make any sense. I thought to myself they really did play together, Hector didn’t want to fight about it he just wants Ernesto to make it right, He wants me to put my photo up, so that he can cross over the bridge and he can see his girl. Hector also mentioned about his past the night he left, which was a long time ago he, Ernesto drank together and told me that he would move heaven and earth for him amigo, just like in De La Cruz’s movie the one that I saw earlier before Hector came and this is where I learned the truth, the night Hector left, he and Ernesto had performing on the road for months, Hector had changed his mind so he felt homesick, packed up his songs and everything. Ernesto thought he wanted to give up and were this close to reaching their dreams but he did no such thing and he would never give up. Hector confronted him that this was his dream that he’ll manage, Ernesto tries to tell him that he can’t do this without his songs but Hector wanted to go home because his mind was changed, it’s always important to make up up your mind, your own decisions and that’s okay. Then Ernesto came up with something he had never done in his life he confronted Hector he would never hate him, if he must go then he would send him off with a toast, he gave Hector a drink and said “To our friendship, I would move Heaven and Earth for you Amigo, Salud” then after the farewell toast that’s when it happened, Ernesto walked with Hector to the train station but Hector felt a pain in his stomach at first he thought he ate something but it turns out he drank something that was poisonous which killed him and he woke up dead. It turned out Ernesto poisoned him, Ernesto thinks that he was confusing movies with reality and all this time Hector thought it was just bad luck, Ernesto had taken his book which had all his songs, then his guitar, which made him furious he tackled Ernesto after learning about what actually happened, I tried to stop Hector but De La Cruz called his security guards to take him away, I just found out that Ernesto took everything away from Hector, and also Hector had been wanting to go back home this whole time. After the guards took Hector away, Ernesto was supposed to give me his blessing, but his reputation that was very important to him he hate me to think that he murdered Hector for his songs, Ernesto knows nothing about it and asked me do I, At first I didn’t know about and told him everyone knows that he’s the good guy, he looked at Hector’s photo then put it in his shirt pocket, I tried convince him my blessing, but his security guards took me away too and telling them that I would extend my stay. Ernesto confronted me that Hector was my best friend, success doesn’t come for free, you’ll have to be willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment and I know that’ll understand. Then Ernesto guards shut the doors as he walked away. It turned out everything that Ernesto told me was a lie. I tried to struggle from Ernesto’s security guards but they were too strong and they threw me into the sinkhole then I fell into the water, I got soaked wet and coughing. I got to the shore and tried calling for help, but no one can hear me, I fell down to my knees because I must’ve thought too soon. When I saw Hector I hugged him and realized he was right all along about everything, he forgave me, but then I saw something gold on him, he was shaking and she (Hector’s daughter) was forgetting him. She’s the reason he wanted to cross the bridge. Hector wanted to see her again, regretted leaving Santa Cecilia, he wish he could apologize, and tell that her papa was trying to come home that he loved her so much, his Coco. I showed him the photo of Mama Coco, Mama Imelda, and him, I realized that man was him this whole time. Hector hope that he see her again and told me everything about her. He wished that he could see her in The Land Of The Dead and give her the biggest hug ever. The moment she arrived in The Land of The Dead and was gone in The Living World he disappeared from this one he’ll never get to see her ever again. He also told me he wrote her a song once they use to sing it every night no matter how apart they so he sang it to her one last time, Remember Me. After he sang that song, I finally realized De La Cruz stole his guitar and his songs. Hector should be the greatest musician that the world remembers all this time not De La Cruz, Hector told me he didn’t write Remember Me for the world he wrote it for Coco and he’s really sorry excuse for a great great grandpa. Like a minute ago I thought I was related murderer but he’s a total upgrade, I realized everything and I know it comes from Hector, fortunately help has arrived Dante came to the rescue including Imelda and Pepita. After getting rescued, also Dante became an Alebrije, I tried to own up for Hector and tell Imelda what actually happened this whole time but Imelda didn’t believe me and Hector, although she will help Hector and me get his photo back from De La Cruz so that he can see Coco, In fact Hector should be on our ofrenda he’s part of this family because we shouldn’t forget him. We got to the Sunrise Spectacular Show, we had to disguise ourselves so that no one can see us in the stage, we came up with the plan, Find De La Cruz, Get Hector’s photo, give it to me, send me home and we got our pedals. We found De La Cruz, then Imelda grabbed her shoes slapped him in the face because that’s what he gets for murdering the love of her life and for trying to müder her grandson then we found Hector’s photo but he ran away, we ran after him, fought against his security guards, we got his photo but Imelda was lifting up into the stage where she sang her song, the guards try to catch her even De La Cruz but she got past them, after singing her song she was on fire and forgotten it felt like. Hector said that she still got it. Just before I can touch the pedal and go back to The Land Of The Living, De la Cruz grabbed me, I tried to struggle but I couldn’t, even Dante tried to pull me to safety but De La Cruz was to powerful, my jacket came loose , so The Family had to report this to everyone and at first they felt confused, when I told De La Cruz that he was a coward, he lied to me that he was the greatest musician of all time, Hector is the real musician and I told him that he murdered him and stole his songs which made the crowd shocked, then he grabbed me and said to me “I am The One who’s willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment whatever it takes” then he threw me off the stage and I began falling down, which made The family and the crowd shocked even more. Dante tried to save me put he wasn’t strong enough then Hector’s photo flew away from me and just before I could die, Pepita rescued me just in time but I lost Hector’s photo, it fell into the water and it was gone. Everyone who had heard everything was mad about De La Cruz, but they cheered after Pepita got me to safety and after De La Cruz got defeated by getting crushed by that giant bell the same thing that happened in 1942. After De La Cruz was defeated, I congratulated Dante’ Imelda hugged me relief that I was safe but Hector was starting to faint, I told him about the photo but he said it’s okay then he started to die, be forgotten, I tried to convince everyone we can still find the photo, but Imelda told me it’s almost sunrise, I don’t want to leave Hector, I promised him, to put up his photo, he can see Coco, they gave me their blessing, Imelda said no conditions, and I promised Hector that Coco won’t forget him then I was sent back to The Land Of The Living. I grabbed the guitar and headed back home, but just before I can get to Mama Coco, Abuelita blocked my way and when she saw the guitar she tried to grab it but I got past her, got to Coco’s room locked the door so that she won’t cause anymore trouble. I tried to help Coco by telling her that I saw Hector and everything else about him but she didn’t hear me. But Abuelita unaware of what truly happened unlocked the door selfishly ordered me to apologize to Coco because she stupidly and mistakenly thought I was trying to hurt and bother Coco but I wasn’t and I did no such thing at all. But before I can play the guitar and sing Remember Me to Coco just like Hector did, Abuelita rudely interrupts, wrongfully yelling at me, not listening to and thinking to herself clearly to apologize to Coco again that was her big mistake then I stopped crying, tears stopped flowing in my eyes then suddenly something flared high into my head. I had enough of Abuelita’s stupidity, was having none of it as my sadness turned to enraged that I was told off for no reason. As I thought about everything that fatty and those troublemakers done, said to me and hearing their words made me very mad, cross, angry, furious, fed up with all of this, felt insulted, disgusted by my family’s especially Fatty’s callousness and their selfish actions. My face turned red my arms, fists, hands clenched with anger, I snapped, lost patience and lose my temper. Instead of playing the guitar and singing Remember Me to Coco just like Hector did, I turned around bravely in front of fatty and The troublemaker Rivera’s with a frown on my face, I shouted, yelled angrily back in return, scolding Fatty furiously of being responsible for nothing, for not looking at the full, whole picture, not thinking clearly, carefully to herself, blaming me for something I didn’t even do, for selfishly accusing, treating me like a criminal without evidence and I yelled at fatty and those troublemakers to stop it, be quiet, shut up, knock it off, cut it off, snap out of it, enough of this stupid annoying pathetic no music nonsense and silence, I yelled so loudly my raging voice echoed around Santa Cecilia, leaving everyone shocked, horrified, Luisa petrified, scared, Enrique stunned, terrified and fatty of course blue in the face and shocked as well.
After yelling back at those troublemakers and Fatty old hag, I scolded them furiously that they have caused so much confusion and delay, I never do anything wrong and for not listening to me they never did. I also add that they just completely ignored all the important and good reasons that music should be important for everyone’s lives. Music is suppose to bring, connect family, people, everyone together, it can also improve anyone’s health, well being, builds confidence, resilience, it is also a creative outlet, it can be helpful, whenever people are having a hard time, stress or when anyone is having a bad day or whatever reason, very important, like in a performance, practicing for a concert, talent show or anything events, powerful, useful like it can help you out when you’re feeling down, it can give you hope, strength, focus more, rich, famous, popular, it can help your feelings, emotions, it can make you sleep better, for babies when they sleep, or whatever reason too, lastly it is fun like parties, birthdays, Christmas, camping, activities, school, or anything or anywhere around the world. Music can be cool and groovy if we treated each other fairly. I even told them the true story of Hector, what I really saw, heard, telling them everything, telling them off that Hector’s music wasn’t a crazy fantasy and it wasn’t curse at all, which Mama Coco fortunately hears it, remembers Hector, suddenly wakes up and was watching. Next I tell them off that they just completely jumped to conclusions, for not finding out the whole truth and it’s always important to learn, know the facts, what really, truly, and actually happened first. They’ve just completely blown and ignored all those important words of advice, they should’ve known all of that and the family at The Land Of The Dead should’ve too. I even scolded that clumsy old man because earlier he said “What’s got into you?”, so I said it back to him, plus I’m not sorry, he should be sorry, because music can be useful for future, This is yes Future for his son but I’m not his son no more, yes more music, I hate shinning shoes it’s boring, it’s nothing, not only he should be sorry those troublemakers losers including fatty cause so much trouble, also, I even said to that stupid cow I am no longer in this together it’s over, and it’s denied. I even scolded that fat bodied cheapskate because yesterday he said to that mariachi “shame on you”, so not shame on him, shame on himself, all of them, they ignored and annoyed me for the last and final time, that fatty show off he just called me shine shoes and I’m not, I’m a musician, that stupid dummy nitwit weirdo said I have to have talents for a talent show and of course I do have talents for a talent show. I scolded fatty old hag for everything she said and done to me, selfishly taking my love of music away, for being a complete stupid idiot to all of The Santa Cecilia musicians, lying to that Mariachi, he did nothing wrong, either did I, he is my fan or my friend, being a complete jerk to Dante, he is my pet, not a street dog, for saying nonsense about Hector, breaking my guitar, and if she did the same thing to Hector’s, it’s over, there’s nothing I can do to save Hector from being forgotten, also without this guitar me and Hector are nothing. I do respect care for my family, but their all obviously too ignorant to listen to any other side of the story or anything and stick to what they think, Like I said they have no respect for music at all, they have no love of music in their hearts, their completely heartless, they only have respect for theirselves, everyone loves music, I love music too, their the ones that don’t care especially Imelda and the others, their the ones breaking everything, their like mocking me, their just rubbing it in. Plus children don’t deserve to be abused at all they deserve to be treated fairly and have a better life. They don’t want to support, care, help, believe, trust, respect, listen to me, they only want to support, care, help, believe, trust, respect, and listen to theirselves. Everyone should respect and understand about each other about everything, no one is the same we people are different. The music miracle and the love of my music is dying because of Fatty and all of those troublemaker Rivera’s. Not to mention it’s okay to say no sometimes if people or children don’t want it but just politely. It can be fair too but not for music, people can eat as much as they want but not too much, they should control theirselves. This no music nonsense was stupid, it’s so pathetic, it was driving me crazy, I’m sick of their actions, they thought wrong they always do, This stupid no good for nothing No Music rat thief family is being so clueless and helpless of the good things we should always do without checking it first, they just can’t stop saying this stupid thing, no one likes that, neither do I. I am the greatest, number one musician, I am also 100% man, of all times, no one takes my love of music away from me, no one can stand up against, mess with me and I can stand firm against them all. Music is the only thing that makes me happy, it’s beautiful, cool, groovy, if we treat each other fairly, I can be whatever I want, anyone can be anything when they grow up, also nobody is the same, we people are different, this is also my hobby, people, including kids all ages have different hobbies too, they don’t have to be the same as other people’s. Why in the world can’t those troublemakers and Fatty can’t trust and take me seriously, they just can’t control their feelings, emotions, their actions, their behaviors and theirselves. Also music is not their problem at all, it’s their heart, they deserve what they gotten. I even told them what I had really did with Coco was that the top of that I was helping her remember Hector, so she won’t forget him, he won’t be forgotten, he’s part of this family this whole time. I even don’t want to pick sides why can’t they be on my side, that’s what family is supposed to do, support anyone, it’s always important to support others but they never will. Angry with their selfishness, their actions, everything they stupidly said, done to me, Afraid they won’t change their behaviors, not going to stop this no music madness and losing my love of music again, I betrayed, abandon, turn against Fatty, those troublemaker Rivera’s, no longer want to ever be in this family ever again and give up on them, retiring from shinning shoes because I had to put an end to Fatty’s stupidity and madness especially The Rivera’s actions, leave this crazy town forever, never come back, return ever again but this time for real and it had to be done. Also I said to Fatty old hag no more kisses, hugs and I’m not her Migueli – Ti – Ti – Ti – To no more Ti – Ti – Ti – To herself. I’ll no longer craft huaraches anymore and everything else is denied, plus I told them not to stand in my way, stay away keep away from me, go away and I even said if this is how they would treat me like this then I quit for good, there is no way I’ll have a family that treats me like this and I don’t want to hear any of this crazy nonsense because this is for everything they said and done to me. After all of that I went through the small drawer right beside Coco, got out a small red book and. I founded the missing piece of the picture of Hector, Imelda and Coco then I put the complete photo in my pocket. I have had it with those foolish troublemakers, I can’t take it and deal with this anymore, I told Fatty and The troublemaker Rivera’s there were extremely selfish, I can’t believe how selfish they all are, so this is it, after everything we’ve been through. They didn’t bother to know the whole truth from me, I have had enough of their stubbornness. Then I brutally punched fatty in the face, started beating her up, tackling, attacked, assaulting her, I grabbed my shoe, started hitting her in the nose, head, face as hard as I could, punched her in the eye, her jaw, bite her hands, arms, hardly, slapping her in the face, kicked her in the crotch, including her legs, stomping on her feet, as payback, without looking at other truth, and that was the last and final straw because this is for everything she said and done to me. That clumsy old man tried to stop me but I kicked him in the leg because this is what he deserved for what he said to me, then I grabbed her by the throat, straggling her, I warned her not to ruin my love of music, not to drive me crazy again, I shakes her like a rag doll, she’s not going to interfere or take everything away from me that I love ever again, I’m also willing to do whatever it takes to seize my moment whatever it takes then I threw her outside of Coco’s room and into the wall severely injuring her, then I said to her I wish you weren’t my Abuelita anymore then I slapped Fatty in the face again. After Fatty’s punishment I grabbed the guitar, dashed out of Coco’s room, also I had the photo of Hector, Imelda and Coco. I packed my belongings, taped up the photo, putting it on a picture frame, writing this tell off message, and I put the complete photo of Hector, Imelda and Coco on top of the ofrenda, I used a stool to reach it there and I put the tell off message below the ofrenda. After scolding the other Rivera’s by glaring at their photos for everything they said and done to me, I raced away from the ofrenda, stormed off furiously from The Rivera House, I banged the doors opened, and I ran angrily away again from everyone with my belongings and the guitar growling in fury. Abuelita and The Rivera’s tried to apologize and stop me but I was already gone then I disappeared in the distance. Which made them especially Abuelita feel ashamed, guilty, awful, horrible terrible and regret. But before I leave this crazy town I had to keep Hector’s guitar safe from Fatty and those foolish troublemaker Rivera’s so that Hector can get it and that they won’t do anything bad to it. Fortunately I found those two women at The Plaza, one of them had that face paint that I met last night, and the other one who introduced the people of Santa Cecilia the staute of De La Cruz. When got to them, I told them, everything about Abuelita, my family, the truth about De La Cruz and that the guitar was actually Hector’s, he also wanted to keep it safe so that nothing bad happens to it, they understood and felt sorry for me after everything I’ve been through. I also told them that I was going to leave Santa Cecilia forever, never come back, return ever again, and that I decided to betray, abandon, turn against and never want to be in this Rivera Family ever again because I’ve been trying to be a musician, make my dream come true, I’ve been trying to make up for this, prove them wrong, but it only gotten worse, plus I asked them if there was a another guitar I can have since I had to keep Hector’s guitar safe for him. Plus I even said that I had enough living in Santa Cecilia and that I’m going to find a new place, better family, who loves music and live at for the rest of my life. They understood that too, they’ll look for a guitar for me, I also told them to meet me at the train station and they agreed. So they took Hector’s guitar to keep it safe, look for a spare guitar and while I was heading to the train station. But while I was on my way there, Enrique tries to stop and apologize to me for what he and the rest of the family said and done to me but I rejected it and said I wish you weren’t my papa, telling him to get out of here and stay away from me, which made him feel sad and heartbroken so he walked sadly away because I don’t want to face the consequences for nothing at all. Then I continued on, then I made it the train station, fortunately when I was waiting for the train to arrive, those two women that I was talking to earlier about everything I’ve been through and about De La Cruz had a guitar for me, it was from that mariachi the blue one I was chatting with yesterday he had a another one for me. After they gave me that spare guitar, I thanked them, I said farewell to them, they said farewell back to me, then the train arrived, it’s time I get out of this crazy town, I used my own money to buy a train ticket, I got into the train by climbing into a gusard van on the back, then as it was about to depart from Santa Cecilia, I sang I’m Not Part Of The Rivera Family Anymore first, then I sang Remember Me one last time, loud enough for Coco to hear with my new guitar which she fortunately heard it, then it sets off, departs away from Santa Cecilia, and disappeared in the distance. A little later I ended up at the same place where Hector at been all those years ago. Then I found a perfect place to hide so that no one can find me.
So this is my story, explains why I’m Not Part of This Rivera Family anymore, after everything I’ve been through and suffered, they wouldn’t listen and they don’t even understand at all. It’s time I teach big fatty meanie old hag pig a lesson especially that dumb old man, stupid cow, disgusting fat bodied cheapskate, fatty show off, stupid dummy nitwit, disgraceful ugly rat, clumsy slow poke, despicable smelly weirdo idiot crazy losers, they have crossed the line, get out of this crazy town and I am so done with this.”
