Do you like Mamacita? Am I? - by Oat 10M

No Speak English is one of the few stories that I read recently. It’s not as much fun as it could hold my breath, actually quiet boring, but do get my attention. When looking at big mama Mamacita, I think she’s not so goon person so I really don’t like her. She doesn’t care how much her husband work for family, doesn’t care to be adaptive, and doesn’t care about her child’s future. I don’t like this kind of person who being too stuck to something without caring others.

First of all, I don’t know why she doesn’t appreciate how her husband works so hard for family. Her husband worked two jobs, left early and came back late everyday just to keep family together. Mamacita seems doesn’t understand why he work hard for. That’s for her family, for their child, and yet for her to have those wonderful shoes but she still complain. She’s not the one who work hard for family, as a good wife she should do her best job take care of house works not just sit down there and sing a songs.

Mamacita is a kind of bullheaded person. She doesn’t care to make friends, to greet people, or at least she should try speaking English! That’s would make things easier and their family could live happily. Because of negative attitude, Mamacita often had a fight with her husband, she cried, but that’s because of her. I don’t know why she would make things more difficult, just open her mind and her heart everything would be fine.

Now a day English is important because it’s widely spoken around the world, by refuse it means you may light-off your future just like Mamacita want for her son. I really don’t know why she hates English so much, she may say no to it, but that doesn’t mean that her son should follow her too. He’s too young and things he receives will surely have a great impact in his life. If Mamacita don’t let him speak English, her child will lost a great opportunity to have a good job to work. A good mother shall care about her child’s future more than just her stubbornness.

As a conclusion, I would like to repeat again that I really don’t like Mamacita. I didn’t mean that hate her, but many of her characteristics are unacceptable by me. Mamacita may love her old days, but that’s too much that made she overlook many important things. I don’t know that the story end here or not, but if not I really want to know how Mamacita will live it through. I think I had learned many things from this short story and I’ll make sure that I myself won’t be like Mamacita for sure.
