Criss Cross Essay Question

9. In the end of the story, as Hector and Debbie sing, the narrator explains:

The song was old, but [singing] was such a new feeling . They sang it together, but their thoughts went off to different places, to different people. Maybe the wrong places, the wrong people. How did anyone know? Mistakes would have to be made. Maybe a lot of mistakes. It was okay. They can’t hear me, but I want to tell them it’s okay, they’re doing just fine.

Select any part of the passage, and explain how the ideas expressed relate to a theme of the novel.
