Anita's Last Cha-Cha

In the small town of Obando, Bulacan, in the Philippines, everyone knows everyone else’s business. But when the beautiful and intriguing Pilar inexplicably shows up after being gone for years, all the neighborhood ladies go into a tizzy while the neighborhood men line up in droves for her massage services. But no one is more entranced than twelveyear-old Anita, a smart-mouthed tomboy who enjoys playing war games, wearing robot T-shirts, and sporting short hair. Once Anita discovers Pilar’s connection with Anita’s cousin Oscar and why she left in the first place, the young girl’s dreams of a happy ending are replaced by her very first broken heart.
