Griselda cleans homes as a means of paving her way thru the world. She has been married to Reynaldo for short of 30 years. During this time she has put on an inordinate amount of weight. She is the oldest of three sisters. She sighs with complacency and frustrations in her life. Feels stuck and alone, her dream of bearing children forgone.
