In this Vignette Esperanza's friend, Sally, gets tied down and is trapped by the window at a young age. she marries a man who worked at a school bazaar before she was ready, before 8th grade. Sally and the man had went to a state where it was legal to marry a young girl. After the wedding they moved in with each other. Sally says that she is happy because her husband works and gives her money yo buy stuff but really she is stuck in the house. her husband gets angry allot and beats her. He also does not let her talk on the phone or have her friends over unless he is at work. "she sits at home because she is afraid to go outside without his permission," as stated in the text means that she is always home and cannot leave the house. but most of all he does not let her look out the window, which does not let her see what she could want. If she does not realizes what she really wants then she will see that everything she does see is what she wants. so every day she looks at the towels, toaster, the alarm clock, drapes, the neat walls and the linoleum roses on the floor.
