How long does it take to drive from Sanjuan to Aguadilla? Ninety minutes? Two hours, tops? Carlos Delgado has driven that route countless times: 22 west to Arecibo and the 2 along the coast, then right on 107, past the Church's Fried Chickens and the Burger Kings and the Taco Makers to the little cul-de-sac with the three-bedroom orange-stucco house in which he grew up, sharing a room with his younger brother, Yasser.

That's the same story he told an hour ago. Delgado sighs, hangs up on the cellphone and says out loud, but more to himself, "He's coming, he's coming, he's coming. That's all he says."
