For example, Mark and Bryon were like brother at the beginning of the book, but by the end Mark hates Bryon. ]]> 2019-10-19 02:33:34 UTC https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399782067 3603065 https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399782081 Cathy and Mark never really like each other, mostly because they were competing for the attention of Bryon.

He will only stop something if he is asked to by someone he loves.

When Bryon starts talking about the "canyon" between him and his friend, he says that it's because he grew up, but Mark didn't, and the latter doesn't want to accept anyone else in the life of Bryon, such as Cathy. ]]> 2019-10-19 04:17:28 UTC https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399790646 3603065 https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399792765 This book is filled with these. For example, Bryon talks about how the police never goes into the poor neighborhoods, and instead prefer to patrol rich places. Also, we see that no help is offered from the government towards the family. A consequence of that is that when Bryon's mother felt sick, the two kids had to steal stuff in order to survive. This might have initiated Mark to start doing shady things at a young age, all leading up to him not caring about selling drugs. ]]> 2019-10-19 04:39:39 UTC https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399792765 3603065 https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399794572 Two-lane street with drive-ins and lots of teenagers : Page 96]]> 2019-10-19 05:04:39 UTC https://padlet.com/3603065/nm0yhb23jwj7/wish/399794572
