People throughout the story go to her for guidance or help. She seems to know all and feel all as she claims she is earth, fire, water, and air. As a pivotal character in this text, her biggest role is knowing which body would wash up on the beach shore at the end of the story (Richard).

He is a fisherman for most of the story other than when Don Gustavo temporarily hires him to be a salad maker. He is soon fired for making it wrong for the doctor and his wife even though he made it exactly like Don Gustavo taught him. His favorite color is blue. One important aspect of Cande is that he promised to take in Marta's baby, but soon declines the offer after he and Chayo have a baby of their own.

With 12 years of experience, she delivers Marta's baby. She likes Rafael, and by the end of the story, they get married. It started with a coffee date, that ended with a kiss and then fear. This is because when she was 17 years old, she went on a trip to mexico as a nurse and got taken advantage of by the man of the house.
