Happy because Louie's cousin had shown her a more positive side of living in the barrio.

Explanation:

The event that happens is when the cousin steel's the car and gets arrested. It shows that peole on the street are desprate and will do bad things.

She does not want to worry about it and make a big deal out of it. She focuses on the car more because it is out of the ordinary to her bcause it is a nice car

she uses the line we all waved then left like they were happy he got arrested for some reason.
