Answer:
Odilia realized that the pendant that she got from La Llorona was a magic one that can grant them five wishes.
Explanation:
Guadalupe Garcia McCall's "Summer of the Mariposas," tells the 'epic' journey of five sisters in their attempts to return a dead man's body to his family, thereby embarking on an "odyssey" to Mexico from Texas. And through their journey, the sisters endured and encountered 'divine' beings, just like Odysseus did in Homer's epic "The Odyssey".
On their journey to Mexico to return Gabriel Pérdido's dead body to his family in Mexico, they encountered the ghostly La Llorona who gave Odilia an ancient ear pendant that had been owned by Tonantzin, an Aztec queen. This magic pendant was to help them 'overpower' the spells of Cecelia, who turned out to be an evil witch. Cecelia has a horde of other 'witches' who are called the "Evil Trinity" who act as an obstacle for the girls to get back home.
Odelia realized that the pendant that she got from La Llorona was a magic pendant that can grant them five wishes.
