Esperanza hates Tio Luis. Following Papa’s death, Tío Luis and Tío Marco slowly move their way into Papa’s office under the pretense of helping out with the family business. Both Mama and Esperanza find the uncles' presence to be unnerving. Esperanza is especially upset when she notices the mess her uncles have created in her father's usually organized office.
Finally, a lawyer explains that Papa left the house to Mama and Esperanza, but because it is not customary for women to own land, the land belongs to Tío Luis. Tío Luis immediately tries to buy the house from Mama at a very low price and suggests that they get married right after the mourning period. Mama refuses both offers, knowing that as their landlord or as a husband, Tío Luis will make their lives miserable.
