How does Marisol demonstrates that she is a true friend in chapter 2?

Reality settles in and Esperanza must accept the tragedy from the night before - bandits killed her beloved father while he was repairing a fence on their ranch. Esperanza hears a knock at the front door. It is Señor Rodríguez, Marisol’s father, who has come to deliver papayas. Señor Rodríguez explains that Papa had ordered the fruits especially for Esperanza's birthday party. Esperanza is then forced to explain her father’s death to his dear friend; Marisol’s father is overcome with grief. Esperanza mimics her Mama’s mannerisms while accepting condolences during the three day mourning rituals for Papa. She finally lets her façade drop when she is alone with Marisol and starts crying openly. Marisol consols her like a good friend.
