Gil's Furniture Bought and Sold
Key Characters are : Esperanza, Nenny, The Black Guy who owns the Store.
Summary: This chapter is all about Esperanza's trip to the junk store. She once bought a refrigerator from him once, and people sell things to this man that owns the store. The junk store is really a run down old looking store. The man that owns the store never turns the lights on because it wastes electricity, unless someone is buying something from him. This store looks basically like useless stuff scattered all around the store. Also the aisles in this store are very small.

The old man doesn't want to sell the box in the window because it is the only actual nice thing in the store. Also becuase he feels the girls will not take care of it, and it means a lot to him.
