Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for January 25, 2021

but it seems Baldo and Estela are close

Good job taking the hint Baldo.

Something Baldo never has to worry about. He’s a silly kid but it’s clear he cherishes Estela.

I thought that arc was settled?

I still miss both Sunny and Beatriz, but Estela has grown on me.

Go for it big guy

Still hold the wife’s hand all these years later…….

I’m an old man and I think this is a sweet sentiment today! Thrill of my life is to still walk down the street holding hands with my bride of 55 years.

Sweet!!

Cruz could learn a lot from watching Baldo and Estella.

Yep..it would be beneficial for him ,but w/ Rayna’s medical condition; “holding hands” or hugging etc; normal physical contact is a big no-no… it’s a difficult relationship. Just saying..

Agree with Femi Aminat (on the Baldo English page) – Rayna’s medical condition makes it impossible for them to be close physically.

Intentionally or not, I can see how a robot following you, or you following a robot, would sufficiently de-humanize the operator of said robot.

Not that it can’t be done. But maybe neither Cruz nor Rayna are ready to make it happen.

Without gloves or masks.

“Maybe”? Rayna sounded very definite the last we saw of her.

They make a lovely couple.

aw

What? Cruz and Rayna have been close for ages. I think Estela’s judginess here only serves to put Baldo on edge.

Cruz went above and beyond to keep Rayna physically safe while spending quality time with her. For a 15-year-old, he’s shown maturity, respect, creativity, and tenacity. For her part, Rayna never risked her health for him and appreciated his efforts. There are lots of reasons for high school romances to fall apart.
