Capítulo 101: Carmen

‘Oh my God! Sweetie, you’re Carmen, and you’re alive. Oh my God!’ Sam started crying while she hugged Clara. ‘Your mom wept for you for months and is still weeping for your death. Oh my God, this is going to be good news,’ as Sam pulls away, ‘You better tell them right away, right John?’ and looks at her husband.

John sat in his chair in a contemplative mood. ‘Clara is here because she thinks she should not shock her parents with her news. There will be a lot of explaining to do, and she’s scared that they would not readily accept her, given the circumstances that she has been gone for 20 years.’ Sebastian spoke on behalf of Clara while she cried with his mom.

‘So you wanted our help so we can invite them over for you and help you break the news to them?’ asks John. He was perceptive, and now Clara knows where Sebastian got his cunning mind.
