Willow notices that in the apartment complex's courtyard, she can remove the lava rocks and plastic liner beneath them pretty easily. She starts thinking about what she might plant there instead. Willow proposes that they transplant their sunflowers to the dirt in the courtyard, but Dell is apprehensive to make any changes to the bank-owned property. Willow assures him she can take care of it.
Willow emails Jairo to drive her to City Hall the next morning, and when he shows up at the salon to pick her up, he meets Pattie and tells her that Willow “changed [his] life” (283). In the car, Jairo shares his good news about the prize money; he’s using it for his college courses. Willow is very happy to hear this news, but she does not consider herself “his angel.” At City Hall, she reads up on hearings regarding building projects. She spends the next two days creating an elaborate proposal for the bank in Dell's name. He has a fear of authority and does not want to be the one to propose it to the bank, but Mai is instantly able to convince him, and he agrees to drop it off the next day.
