It was that time of year again. Ito, the strawberry sharecropper, did not smile. It was natural. The peak of the strawberry season was over. The last few days the workers, most of them braceros, were not picking as many boxes as they had during the months of June and July.
As the last days of August disappeared, so did the number of braceros. Sunday, only one –the best picker –came to work. I liked him. Sometimes we talked during our half-hour lunch break. This is how I found out he was from Jalisco, the same state in Mexico my family was from. That Sunday was the last time I saw him.
When the sun had tired and sunk behind the mountains, Ito signaled us that it was time to go home. “Yaesora,” he yelled in his broken Spanish. Those were the words I waited for twelve hours a day, every day, seven days a week. And the thought of not hearing them again saddened me.
As we drove home Papa did not say a word. With both hands on the wheel, he stared at the dirt road.
