Chuy’s Behavior
In the book “Motorcycle Ride on the Sea of Tranquility” by Patricia Santana tells a lot of interesting content about a Mexican American family living in the United States. In this story they tell the life of Yolanda Sahagun better known as Yoli. One day Yoli and her family were preparing a party for the arrival of their elder brother Chuy who came from the Vietnam War. The family was waiting for Chuy with a lot of desire because they had a lot without seeing their beloved Chuy. However, Yoli was the most excited because she was finally going to see her brother after so much time and she missed him a lot. Yoli just wanted the hours to pass quickly, so she could see her brother again and could not wait any longer. Yoli and her family would take a surprise that they would not like so much about their beloved Chuy.
In this chapter, there was much sadness, anger and disappointment on the part of the Sahagun family for Chuy’s behavior. When everyone was entertained at the party, suddenly Chuy arrives at his surprise party. Chuy’s family was excited to see him and the first thing that the family did was to hug him because they missed him a lot. At that moment, Yoli was remembering how Chuy was before going to the Vietnam War. Yoli began to describe in her mind her brother Chuy and she said that he was a kind, caring, calm and loving person. However, Yoli when he looks at his brother Chuy begins to suspect that something strange was happening to his brother. When the family began to approach Chuy for having returned home healthy from the war, Chuy just walked away, he just wanted to be alone without anyone bothering him. However, Chuy greeted in an annoying way his family and friends who were waiting for him with great emotion, but he did not care. At that time, Yoli began to realize that his brother Chuy was no longer the same person before gone to war. Yoli in her mind thought she was seeing everything wrong and that it was her imagination. She thought that she was wrong because it could not be that her brother will change that way to his own family. Yoli calmed down and started saying that his brother behaved like that because he was tired and just needed to relax to be the same as he was before. Even though, everyone thought that Chuy was tired and just needed to rest, what they did not know was that Chuy's behavior would not be the same as before.
When Yoli realized that her brother was not the same she became very sad because the person she loved very much, with whom she shared everything, changed so much and it would not be the same anymore. Chuy was no longer that person his sister described. He changed in a very strange way and he always. He always had an angry expression, and if he smiled he did it in a bad way. At that moment the Sahagun family realizes that Chuy is no longer impressed by the things they do for him as his surprise party. Although Yoli only wanted her brother to be at home with her family, she felt that Chuy was with them, but at the same time he was not there because he did not care about his family.
In conclusion, Yoli's family goes through various moods because of their beloved Chuy. However, Yoli begins to realize that her brother will never change his behavior anymore and she will have to defend herself without her brother. I think Chuy's behavior will always affect his family because his family cares what happens to Chuy. However, I think Chuy changed because he saw a lot of death and blood in the war and that left him traumatized. So it's just a matter of time for Chuy to overcome his fears and be the same as before.
