"But that really is cool," She says more seriously. "You'd probably have to work a long time to learn both sides of it." Her head ducks a little, not of shyness or embarrassment, but because she's considering something. The moment passes and she lifts a smile to Ekkehardt properly. "Thank you for looking after Papá while I can't. It really means a lot to me."
"Ay, Mija..." Héctor breathes then, touched enough he reaches out. He can only hold the computer's edge instead of her face but he looks at her with that mix of sorrow and love all the same.
"That does remind me though." He draws back. "I did have something to thank my old friend here. Would you be willing to wait a moment, love? I'll be just a second, promise."
"Of course, Papá." She beams at him and he returns it before standing and looking to Ekkehardt.
"Just over here," He says, and he leads, stepping out of the camera's view and towards the ofrenda.
