A la chita callando:
It means: with stealth, furtively and with great reserve.Also it is said: A la chitacallando, and it seems that both come from the old game named ·"Los chitos", in which children threw their counters (hopscotch), with extreme care, over the jacks placed in the middle.In order to not to alarm people, you had to go out....A la chita callando. Note: chita is same than chito.
