She then stretched her forelegs and her back legs and gave a small smile. She was glad that she helped Starshine make new friends and getting the Cutie Mark Searchers together. A knock was heard on the door and Miracle got off her couch and used her magic to open the door. "Oh, Lulu Belle, how are you?" Miracle said with a grin. "I'm doing very well, actually. I just came here to see if you want to hang out or something like that." Lulu Belle replied with the same grin that Miracle was giving. "Sure, I have nothing to do and my sister, Dahlia, is currently busy at her flower shop with Lily. My nephews, Hugh and Jacinto, are probably out with their friends at the moment." Miracle replied and she closed her eyes and gave a wide smile with her mouth closed. The two best friends then walked out of the house and went to the castle where they used to live with their parents and best friends. "Hey, Dad!" Miracle and Lulu Belle called out at the same time and Jordan walked out to see them and he came up and hugged his daughter tightly. "How is my little filly doing?" Jordan asked with a smile and he smoothed some of her brown mane back with his hoof. "I'm doing well, Daddy." Lulu Belle replied with her eyes close and she gave a wide smile. "How is my daddy by the way?" Miracle asked in a sad voice. Jordan then looked at her and gave a sad sigh. "I'm afraid that his condition is getting worse. Hugo has tried everything to get him better but it doesn't appear to be working." Jordan replied in a sad voice and he hung his head down. "Is the same thing happening to my Uncle Sven?" Miracle asked with worry and Jordan slowly nodded his head. The two best friends then looked at each other and walked out the front doors. "I'm so sorry, Miracle." Lulu Belle said as she looked at her best friend with sad green eyes. "Thanks, Lulu Belle, that's nice of you to say. I'm also wondering how Sapphire and Ruby are doing. We haven't seen them since the Hearts and Hooves Day party." Miracle said then she gave a small smile. "I just heard that they both got married to two stallions from Felltaly and they moved there. I hope they will be able to attend Lily and Mandarin's wedding." Lulu Belle said with a grin then she smoothed some of her mane away from her face. "How are you and Blackstone doing? Got any marriage plans?" Miracle asked as she jumped a little then looked around the town. "We're not really planning on getting married but we're thinking about it." Lulu Belle said in a dreamy voice and she then laughed along with Miracle. They walked into Valentina's bakery and sat at one of the tables at a window. "Hey, Thaddeus and Crystal!" Miracle called out and the couple then turned to her. They waved back and they went back to eating their cupcakes and biscuits. Valentina walked over to them with a notepad and pencil levitating in front of her. "What can I get for you two?" Valentina asked with a smile. "We'll have strawberry shortcake and some cherry pie. We're really hungry." Miracle replied with a smile and she levitated thirty bits onto the table and Valentina nodded slowly and wrote their orders down on the notepad and took the bits with her as she walked away back to the kitchen. The door bell rang and a mare that had a similar appearance to Miracle walked in and she looked around for a little until she looked straight at Miracle. Miracle got a bad feeling rushing through her body. "Can it be?" the mare said with disbelief as if she couldn't believe what she was looking at. "Who are you and why are you looking at me like that?" Miracle asked in disgust and confusion. Lulu Belle gave her tough mare look and she clopped her hooves and rubbed them together. "You're my daughter, I'm your mum who abandoned you the day you were born." the mare said with a smile and everypony including Thaddeus, Crystal and Valentina all gasped.
