one day, when Esperanza is sorting peaches, Alfonso comes to take her to the bus station. Esperanza and Alfonso watch Miguel get off of the bus from Los Angeles - with Abuelita. Esperanza is overjoyed to be reunited with her grandmother. Abuelita explains that Miguel snuck her out from under the watchful eyes of Tío Luis and Tío Marco. When they return to camp, Esperanza introduces Abuelita to the rest of the family. Shortly thereafter, Mama and Abuelita have a happy, tearful reunion.
