Enriques success

When Enrique finally meets success after years and years of attempts to find his mother, he is extremely happy to have found her, but does not cry when he see's her for the first time in well over a decade. He finds her in North Carolina, meaning she moved there because she could not find a decent job in which she was treated with an appropriate amount of respect back in California. However when Enrique finds her, she is seeing a man and Enrique thinks it is best for him to move out separately, still nearby, but he wants to give his mother privacy. I found it very surprising that Enrique and his mother began to argue shortly after he had found her. You would think that they would live happily ever after, but problems arose and Enrique was even threatened to leave by his mother once or twice. As Enrique seemed to become more lonely, he communicated with Marie Isabel, and found out that he had a child back in Honduras. After weeks they eventually meet up and raise their child together, and Enrique occasionally visits his mother, knowing she is nearby, in the United states of America, the place he now calls home. He knew that feeling of dignity when he first stepped on American soil after the long cross over the river bordering the US and Mexico, he knew it was his home, where he thought he belonged.

  1. Max, it seems like maybe you didn't look at the directions. You talk about the plot of the story, which was not what was asked for.
