Fiesta 1980

Hurt

Junot's mother as well as him, he felt the hurt in which his father put them through. His mother got hurt from knowing and having that sense that the husband was cheating

Responsibility

I believe there were two responsibilities during the short story. The first I believe that Junot's mother wanted to take the responsibility of always calming down Junot when he is about to throw up and I think Junot's responsibility that he took was to keep his father's secret of his mistress to keep his mother from getting hurt.
