An example of this is when Lala is in the hospital visiting with her father and her Grandmother appears and as they are talking for awhile Lala asks her why she is haunting her and she says, ” Me? Haunting you? It’s you, Celaya, who’s haunting me.
Also I feel she tries to become LaLa’s voice of reason and look out for her and not repeat the mistakes she made as a girl. It’s the one of the most big moments I feel the Grandmother shows any remorse for what she has done in the past and that she is truly a good person deep down. In chapter eighty three the Grandmother reveals herself by saying, “You’ll tell my story won’t you, Celaya? So that I’ll be understood? So that I’ll be forgiven?”. She brings her back as still the mean stubborn grandmother she is but the Awful Grandmother reveals herself more to LaLa. In part 3 of Caramelo, Cisneros has an interesting way of keeping the grandmother alive after she passes away in the story.
