Emma
Abstract
Era su cumpleaños y su mama la había llevado a su lugar favorito antes de que llegaran los invitados a la fiesta: a la tienda mexicana a comprar paletas.
Emma, su hermana Alma, y su mamá, Sofía, componían una de tantas familias de inmigrantes mexicanos en Wisconsin que iban a la tienda a recuperar y compartir pedazos de la niñez a través de las golosinas que compraban con avidez. Las paletas era la forma en que Sofía compartía su niñez con su hija. Por eso el compartir una paleta el día del cumpleaños se había convertido en un ritual que tenían desde siempre. Emma compraba una paleta de coco, y su mama una de nuez.
