After reading the story We came all the Way from Cuba So You Could Dress Like This? by Archy Obejas was a very interesting story but I didn't like how the author jumped around from present, past, and future she is very hard to follow but otherwise it was an eye opener. She makes sure the reader understands how life was for her the doubts the questions the idea of what if she would have stayed in Cuba would her life be different. She wanted to go back to Cuba but her father forbid her to even think about that because they brought her over the America for her to have a better future for herself.
When her father dies she realizes there are things she never told him but she seems okay with him being gone because I believe now she feels like she can live her own life not one constantly being overlooked by her father. She is allowed to experience the life in Cuba if she chooses or just to live life with out the pressure of her father's perfect dream.
