I have to make enough money

for the operation.

I'm sure you'll do the

best you can.

I'll do whatever it takes.

I have to get back to work.

Yeah.

I'll pray for your boy.

Thank you.

It's your favorite food.

You like it?

My English is so much better.

I almost have no accent.

But sometimes it's good to have

a little accent

I think it reminds you of

where you from.

What about my English?

Your English is better than mine.

I'll be home soon, baby.

And you'll get your operation

and you'll be healthy

And strong like a lion.

So tell me, do you wanna come and

live with me in America?

- Yes.

- Yes?

And live happily ever after?

Like a fairy tale?

Like a fairy tale

Grandma too?

Yeah, grandma too.

Wait here.

Happy birthday.

Happy birthday, baby.

You ready to blow.

But make your wish first.

- You're finished?

- Yeah.

Hello, baby.

How are you?

It's mommy.

How are you, sweetie?

I'm calling to tell you that

I'll be home very soon

Mommy just needs to make

one more check.

Okay?

Go back to sleep.

Alright

I love you.

Hey, you okay?

Can you come inside with me for

a little bit.

- I'm so sorry.

- It's all right.

Can I tell you something and

you won't think I'm crazy?

Trust me, I've seen crazy...

...and you're not it

This place I think

it's haunted.

Now you think I'm crazy.

Well, it could be. I mean

it's and old place and...

...lot of crazy things probably

happened here over the decades.

Why don't you quit this place...

...and go be with your son.

I think about that every

day, but I can't.

Not yet.

I just need to make more money

and then I can go home.

I wish I could help.

Ok, you have to leave now.

- What is it?

- Hurry! you're gonna get me fired.

- Maybe that's a good thing.

- No, get out.

What?

What's wrong with you?

Are you jealous?

Yes.

You jealous?

Are you?

No, I'm not jealous.

What?

You can't be with

us anymore.

I mean it.

... what?

What're you gonna do now?

- Fire you.

- Yeah? You gonna fire me.

Yeah, yeah....

Taking another break?

No "problemo".

I'll just take it out of

your "dinero"
