Mamá immediately slipped it onto her finger."But that’s about all I have.” He looked down. "I lost my job at the bank.”"Ay, Fernando.” Mamá covered his large hands with her small ones.Papá shook his head. "No, it was expected. It was just a matter of time.”"You’ll get an even better job, Papá,” I said, trying to be positive. Excerpt 2"Your mother and I have decided . . .” Papá walked over and put his arm on Mamá’s shoulder. She sat frozen in place. "We’ve made plans for you to leave Cuba . . . tomorrow.”My heart stopped."You and Mamá, too, right?” Frankie asked.My head spun. Leave Cuba? Tomorrow?"No, Frankie, your mother and I . . .”"They’re not going with us.” My fear turned into anger. "You’re sending us away, aren’t you? Like some of the other kids. How can you do that?”
