Guadalupe Anaya is pregnant and as the newly elected block captain of Sunset Street she is in charge of raising awareness of safety in her Albuquerque neighborhood. While she waits for the baby, Lupe writes letters to her unborn child, whom she names Destiny. It is Lupe's dream that her daughter will be a writer, pushing a pen instead of a broom.
