Different Flags by Eugenia Renskoff

Different Flags, a book by Eugenia Renskoff, tells the story of 26-year-old Ani. Ani leaves her comfortable but stifling life in San Francisco to travel to Argentina to comfort her widowed Aunt Esther. Once back in her native country, Ani must face her unexpected feelings of love for Padre Luis, her aunt's young and handsome parish priest. Different Flags is a study of Ani's inner conflict.

New Obstacle

May 8, 1983: The employee at the American Embassy told me in private (went to see her yesterday) that it´ll be 5 years before my Tia can enter the U.S. and stay there permanently. 5 Long years! If she does get a tourist visa, she´ll need to leave after 3 months and then come back here to Argentina. Come back where? The apt. will be gone, occupied by someone else.
How can I pòssibly tell her? I´d rather wait because it´d be too cruel. Either way it´s just not fair.
