Someone is mighty pleased to see them.
On the other side of the counter stands their aunt Lola. You can't miss her! Her skin is the same soft brown color as theirs. Her black hair is piled up in a bun on her head with a pink hibiscus on top. She wears bright red lipstick, and above her lips she has a big black beauty mark. On her colorful summer dress, parrots fly toward palm trees, and flowers look ready to burst from the fabric if they can only figure out how.
Behind their aunt, their mother is approaching in her hiking boots and navy blue parka, her red hat and mittens. "Tia Lola!" she cries out. They hug and kiss and hug again. When Tia Lola pulls away, the beauty mark above her upper lip is gone!
