A. “VIt’s okay,’ Manuel’s mom told the group in a soothing voice. VA tree must have fallen, but we’re all safe. Stay close to me and you won’t be hurt, okay?’ The friends nodded and stayed huddled together.

B. “Try as he might, he couldn’t quite understand what made José happy or mad. And he couldn’t shake the nagging thought that this was a vengeful ghost he was dealing with, one who had seemingly cursed his own family with bad luck, and surely that was a bad sign. But that, Manuel felt, made it even more important that he try to help José find peace once and for all…

José’s cloudy form held up his free hand in a friendly wave to the boys before disappearing.”
