March
Things continue to complicate on my ranch. I am tired of hearing Pedro praise Tita’s cooking every night. I’m worried that Rosaura will notice his compliments towards Tita’s meals. The Revolution is tearing my family apart. Gertrudis has run away with a young soldier named Juan, and Tita lied to me about it! Gertrudis has run away to a brothel! No daughter of mine has ever acted so disgracefully! I have chosen to burn every memory this family has of Gertrudis. I have destroyed her birth certificate and every picture of her. If she cannot live up to the standards I have set, she may no longer be a member of the de la Garza family.

First of all Gertrudis will always be a part of this family and she will always be my sister. Second of all, it is your own fault that she left. You were such a harsh, strict mother to her that she needed to leave and be free of you!
