- Abstract
- When Mrs. Reyes came back into the room, Pepe was sitting on one of the back seats near the door. Her face was not at all angry, yet it was not what may be called pleasant. Pepe was very much worried, and, in fact, Pepe was beginning to feel really sorry for his misconduct. Mrs. Reyes motioned to Pepe to approach. "Come and sit right here," she said softly, pointing to a desk in front of her table and Pepe obeyed. Mrs. Reyes had always been very kind to Pepe,Pepe heard her remark that Pepe looked very much like her dead boy.
