Boys and Girls
Tin regrouped with his summer friends and spent joyous days on the beach and hanging out with them. But at the end, he cried Gibraltar-size tears when he was parting from Pablo on the last day. Who could blame him – Pablo is simply irresitable.
So on this last night in Zahara when tears were gushing out of Tin’s eyes, I took him to bed and comforted him that Pablo would come visit us in New Orleans (we’ve been asking his parents to let him visit for two years now). Suddenly the crying stopped, and Tin turned to me stone faced and said, “No! I want CARMEN to come to New Orleans.” Carmen from Sevilla – how appropriate to have a summer girlfriend named Carmen who is from Sevilla.
But see, Carmen is not only cute, she and her mother and sister are in his band. Natch.
