- Esmeralda got to meet her sister for the first time. She was not able to talk to her about Papi even though she wanted to. Their mothers sat at the table and had conversations that was not about the kids but about Papi. I dont think that they liked each other too much. All Margi and Esmeralda did was kind of stare at eachother across the table. I think Esmeralda was scared because she didnt know what to say to Margi.
