Summary
A month after Casita's rebuilding and getting their gifts back, Isabela wishes to burn her old dress and move on from the past. She goes to the only family member she feels she can trust with this mission of hers. She's shocked to find that he also wants to burn something of his as well.
However- she comes to learn that moving away from the past may be harder than she first thought as truths of the pain she kept hidden come to light. Isabela, along with her family is forced to acknowledge what the pressure has done to isabela herself.
As Isabela begins to heal and as her family comes to her aid to make up for what has happened she only has one thought: Who is she, who is Isabela
And will she finally get the courage to break free from the cage she has yet to break free of and finally talk to Abuela?

And yet, it was getting harder and harder by the day.
Or...
