Our Good Day
Esperanza talks to the two girls across the street, while Cathy is telling her not to. The two girls ask Esperanza for five dollars, Esperanza asks them to wait a minute and goes to her room to get the money. They buy the bike from Tito, the boy who was selling it. The two girls tell Esperanza their names are Lucy and Rachel. They come up with an agreement on who gets the bike when and can’t decide who gets to ride the bike first, so they decide to ride it together. Lucy is using the pedals, Esperanza is on the seat, and Rachel is on the handel bars, making the bike wobbly like the wheels are spaghetti. Major characters are Esperanza, Lucy, and Rachel.

cathy family think that all the hispaics is bad and the street is going to become a very bad naborhood
They want to buy the bike to ride it together and share it
Cathy thinks that because more hispanics are moving in is bad because she is racist against hispanics. She also said that she will have to move away because she thinks that the neighberhood is bad now that there is so many hispanic people.
