I am Miguel. I am 16 years old. I am a servant at this beautiful house, El Rancho de las Rosas.
I am in the courtyard in the dark of night. The ranch is on  re! I watch the  ames, like long curved  ngers reaching for the horizon, lighting the night sky.
I’m confused. This cannot be real. I mu  be  ill dreaming. Has my own imagination has gone wild?
Where is the family? I see Esperanza and Ramona, but where is Abuelita?
I see sparks from the house  oat on the wind toward the  ables and  elds. The  re is spreading.
