Night is quickly falling. Maria rushes inside, still sobbing.
No word from any of the men who left with him this morning.
Maria has realized that she better hurry and prepare for dinner. Daddy does not like her wearing western style clothing. She must pull herself together and prepare for another dull evening with Daddy and Rosa.
How will she ever be able to eat? She is very worried about Cord. Her eyes are puffy and she has a bad headache. Daddy will be home soon and she had better be the bright and cheerful lady he expects her to be.
He can be so mean, and she can only try and endure.
Cord, please return. I need you. If you don't return Daddy will make me marry his old friend Paulo, who is 20 years my senor and evil to the core.
