Tears started to fall down my face. The man in the uniform was constantly glaring at me through the review mirror and it made me feel weak. Once we got to Roberto's school he came out looking just as I did, sad. I had noticed that we were heading to the boarder already. "My family is back there, you can not take us away!" The driver just yelled back at me to be quiet. Roberto held me back shaking his head no. I broke out into tears as we got closer to the boarder. The new boarder was no longer just a simple fence it was made out of stone and looked about 12 feet high. Before the men drove us past the gates we picked up a few other people, after that we kept driving for what could have been hours. When we arrived we were at a camp. It was

We found a blanket on the ground and made a tent with that and the sticks we found in the forest near by. We laid down on the cold hard ground and slowly fell asleep. "Get up sleepy head." Roberto shook me trying to get me to wake up. I clutched my back as it was aching badly. The sun was barely up above the horizon.

The oldest looked about 17, the second oldest looked around 14, the next one looked 12 and the youngest girl looked around 5 years old. She had the most energy. The little girl ran up to me and then looked me in the eyes. I felt awkward, until er mother came in and grabbed …show more content…
We we're working near the road in the front of the fields. Thats when we saw the mother running towards us. "There was a letter in the mail box saying it was for a 'Panchito' and 'Roberto' thats you isn't it?" Roberto and I looked at each other. We took the letter quickly and ripped it open. Roberto started reading it out loud, "Dear Panchito and Roberto, we heard that yo were taken to Mexico by the La Migra, they told us where you were and where we could come and get you, but you need to pay a free to cross the boarder and we can not afford it, we hope that you two are safe -Love Mama & Papa".
