Angel Vargus dies
When this happens, Esperanza knows that she has to take better care of her sister. She has to be more responsible for Nenny because she is little.
The Vargus's are not her children though, so she cannot take care of all of them. She realizes that they are very different from others so people slowly begins to leave them alone. Esperanza only has a certain capacity to care for others. She has a limit to how much she can care for others.
