Luisa was on her usual break from carrying things through out Encanto. She was sitting inside the Casita backyard, as she was suggested to do, so she doesn't get carried away with chores by the villagers.

It was until she found herself looking at the clouds, giggling at few, that she thought looked like things. A butterfly, a puppy, a bunny or many other things!

That was until she noticed the fuzzy feeling inside. She didn't complain through. It felt weird, but not bad weird. More like funny and comfortable.

It was when she heard a voice of her sister.

"There you are, Luisa!" Mirabel walked over, sitting next to her sister with smile. "Glad to see you're doing better! Enjoying watching clouds?"

"Mhm!" The older girl nodded. "Mira, look! That one looks like a butterfly! Like you!"

Mirabel was a bit surprised, but then realized. Luisa slipped! Slipped into Little space! Just like she would do!

"Ooh! Yeah, I can see that!" Mirabel smiled, before looking at her sister. "Luisa, can you tell me, how old are you?"

Luisa looked over, confused, and titled her head.

"What you saying, Mira? 'm nineteen!" She made a pause. "I think..."

Mirabel giggled slightly.

"Oh, Luisa! Do you feel fuzzy right now? Like... you feel smaller?"

"Um... yeah? Why?"

"That's what Little space is, sis!" Mirabel smiled brightly. "You're a Little!"

"Really?" The girl blinked twice, eyes wide.

"Yeah! But that's no bad thing! That way you just relax and have fun!" Mirabel smiled, getting a smile back from her sister.

Luisa followed Mirabel's advice for rest of the evening. She let herself accept her Little self. She was 3, but she knew that would change the further she explored it and got a tighter grip on the idea.

And for now... they settled with just playing games, exploring new horizons of Little space and life of a Little. Mirabel ended up making her sister her first stuffed toy, a donkey with unicorn horn, Luisa ended up naming Bel, after her sister. Mirabel couldn't be more happy, honored.

Late at night, the two ended up falling asleep together inside of Mirabel's room, only for their parents to find them to smile on them.

Little space was magical! The feeling of joy, happiness, innocence and... the chance of a normal childhood, she missed due working for the community...

Yes... this was what Luisa Madrigal was missing all those years...

And for Mirabel it was first time as Caretaker as well. First time she realized how it felt. The feeling of responsibility didn't feel like a burden, but instead like a love and feeling to protect, keep her sister the way she was...

She knew... this new part of their lives was going to be magical. Even more magical than the all Miracles in the world... because this one was born out of pure love. Not sacrifice or healing of old wounds, but a pure, innocent feelings, only children can have...

They'd keep that to themselves, until Luisa would feel comfortable enough with telling the rest of the family.
