"It’s small and red with tight steps in front and window so small you’d think they were holding their breath."

Kiki

"We come from Texas, Lucy says and grins. Her was born here, but me I'm from Texas."

Rachel

Edna

"She is Enda's daughter, the lady who owns the big building

next door, three apartments front and back."

"Whatever her reasons, whether she is fat, or can't climb the stairs, or is afraid of English, she won't come down."

Mamacita

"Until on day Sally's father catches her talking to a boy and the next day she doesn't come to school. And the next. Until the way Sally tells it, he just went crazy , he just forgot he was her father between the buckle and the belt."

Sally

Cathy

"It is wooden. Inside the floors slant. Some

rooms uphill, some down."

Rafaela

Monkey Garden

"And then Rafaela, who is still young but getting old from leaning out the window so much, gets locked

indoors because her husband is afraid Rafaela will run away since she is too beautiful to look at."

"Things had a way of disappearing in the garden, as if the garden itself ate them, or, as if with its old-man memory, it put them away and forgot them"

Vargas Household

Benny and Blanca

"Benny and Blanca own the corner store. They're okay except don't lean on the candy counter."

They are bad those Vargases, and how can they help it with only one mother who is tired all the time from buttoning and bottling and babying, and who cries every day for the man who left without even leaving a dollar for bologna or a note explaining how come.
