Sinopsis:
Finally someone of the Loski's knew about the eggs. Bryce thought that his Granddad knew about the eggs because of the way he stared at him, and he thought he would say all the truth to the family. At last Grandfather didn't, but later he came into Bryce's room and Bryce ended telling him the truth. Granddad knew about the eggs because he was helping Juli with her yard and probably she told her about it. This is the reason why Bryce couldn't stop looking at the Baker's house, he couldn't stand seeing his own Grandfather talking and having fun with Juli Baker. Days passed and eventually Bryce felt very bad about what he had done, but he didn't know how to apologyze. It was very hard to Bryce to just walk to her and apologyze because Juli was still angry and she ignored him. At last, Bryce got to speak to Juli, he thought she finally forgave him, eventhough he didn't actually said "I'm sorry". That night the Loski's had a fight because they didn't like that Granddad helped Juli. Especially Rick (Bryce's dad) did not liked that Grandfather spend a lot of time with a "stranger" when he never spend time with his own grandson, that's when Grandfather tells Rick that the Baker's did not cleaned their garden because Mr. Baker had a retarded brother. He explained to all the family that he is retarded because of the lack of oxygen he had when he was born, if he had enough oxygen he would be just fine. Patsy (Bryce's mom) had a meltdown and she walked out of the room with Rick trying to calm her down, Bryce didn't knew what was happening. Granddad told him that HE could've been retarded too because he also had his "umbilical cord wraped aroud his neck", that's when Bryce thought that his father wouldn't had appreciate him because of what he had said about Juli's uncle. After all the drama Bryce and Granddad go for a walk. Bryce realized that he and Granddad connected thanks to Juli. One night when Bryce was looking at the newspaper Juli appeared on, he finally understood why Juli liked the sycamore tree so badly, and he couldn't stop looking at her. On Juli's point of view she never cared about where they lived until Bryce insulted her yard. This is why Juli decided to clean her yard. Later on Bryce's grandfather came over to Juli's house and for weeks they worked together on the yard. Juli told Chet (Granddad) about her uncle and about her rented house. Patsy eventually told the family that she was going to invite the Baker's for a "dress-up" dinner, everyone but Chet thinks is a bad idea. That same day Bryce told the truth to his mom and felt relieved. Also Bryce talks to Garret about Juli.
Quotes:
"They handymanned all week. And every night Granddad would come in with rosy cheeks and a huge appetite and compliment my mom on what a great cook she was. Then Saturday happened. And the last thing I wanted was to spend the day at home while my grandfather churned up dirt and helped plant Juli's yard."
It is ridiculous that Bryce criticize his Granddad and Juli because in first place he is the one that made Juli mad. Me myself wouldn't have made someone mad if then I'm going to feel regret. Maybe he liked when Juli didn't leaved him alone. What is making Bryce to feel this way?
"I'd spent so many years avoiding Juli Baker that I'd never really looked at her, and now all of a sudden I couldn't stop. This weird feeling started taking over the pit of my stomach, and I didn't like it. Not one bit."
I think that now Bryce have time to process what he really thinks about Juli. At first when he saw Juli, he just wanted to run away from her, but know maybe he is starting to realize that he might like her. Why does he took so long to admit that he might like her?

Final Thoughts:
Well, in the next forty-two pages what happened is that Granddad knew about the eggs. Bryce didin't know how to apologyze to Juli but eventually he did. Rick was mad at Chet because he helped Juli. Chet told to the family that they didn't cleaned the yard because Mr. Baker has a retarded brother, Chet told Bryce he could have been retarded too. Patsy invite the Baker's for a "dress-up" dinner. My prediction is sort of right because Bryce had time to really look at Juli as a person and maybe he is starting to fell in love with her. What MIGHT happen further in the book is that Juli doesn't what nothing to do with Bryce, but he keeps trying.
