Long Answer
1. Answers may include several possibilities; one relationship that Esteban irrevocably damages is the one with his sister, Férula. Overly possessive of Clara and jealous of Férula’s closeness with her, Esteban continually looks for way to keep Férula away from Clara. When he comes home one day to find Férula in bed with Clara, albeit for innocent reasons, he seizes the opportunity and throws Férula out of the house, accusing her of “corrupting” Clara. Férula curses Esteban and never returns; she later dies, alone and in pitiable conditions, which causes Esteban a great deal of guilt. Other examples of broken ties include Esteban’s relationship with Clara herself and his relationship with his foreman, Pedro Segundo.
