A classmate who is only 14 gets a job when her mother is hospitalized. She is living with her grandparents and younger brother, but she NEEDS to help the family survive financially, even if it means lying to her boss about her age and letting school assignments slip...
At the end of the story Yara and her mother are ready to plan for her quinceanera (in a year) but the father is still insisting that they will be HOME by then. Yara's grandparents and her uncle's family had already been in Miami for a few years before Yara's family arrived, so though they also would like to go HOME, they know it isn't likely to happen soon. The grandfather is afraid he will die before he sees his homeland again. ( )
