To calm or encourage is the dilemma in which Rebeca was, because without knowing it she found herself in the middle of the discussion. Her mother-in-law was a very stubborn person and not only with her, her children always gave her the reason to leave the matter in question. That same attitude took everyone who knew her, it was certainly not easy to deal with her and in her altered state of her it was more difficult to decide what she should say.
Oh! of the one who without thinking gave her any answer, just to silence her, then the only thing she could feel from her was regret for her. He went out of his way alone, Rebeca's mother-in-law was upset and somehow included Rebeca in the discussion, now that she was going asking for her opinion, Rebeca had no other way, she took a risk.
