He's not running from anything here. He came here because he has 11 brothers and sisters and he wanted to help out the family. The plan was always for him to return to Mexico when enough of his siblings were old enough to work for themselves, and he'd saved up enough money for himself and his own family. The reason he puts up with the asshole boss is because although they treat him like less then a human, they pay him outstandingly well-Plus give him very cheap rent right above the restaraunt, and let him eat whatever he wants for free while at work (which is most of the time). He has 1 bill to take care of every month, $100 for rent, and other then that it's incidental expensis like laundry, entertaintment and food for the 3 meals a week he isn't at the restaraunt. He's willing to put up with the asshole boss for that whole package.

And yes, mommy wants him home-in February...and he told her no and he's waiting till May, which is huge because for one he's very close to his family, and two in Mexico you are taught to respect your elders and especially parents wishes, no matter how old you are. He did tell me he'd wait longer but I love him too much to make him put up with the asshole boss for that much longer. Plus, I know he's not happy here and the only reason he hasn't gone back already is because of me. He reats me like a princess and I want to treat him with the same respect.
