- Eddie, please go downstairs. Here is a centavo. Buy anything, but do not come back here."" Eddie stayed out until dark. ""Sh! Boys, keep still. Eddie will tell me about his work,"" the father said, beckoning to Eddie. ""So my boy is a gardener! Well, that is fine. Now, wash yourself and get ready for supper."" The next day, Eddie's father had a surprise package for him. Eddie's father gave him a piece of ground for his garden. ""Well, you see, Father, when they quarrel, they turn the hose on each other. Andres hides among my tomatoes and the plots are flooded.""Boys, you must keep away from Eddie's garden.
