Apologies and Regret

Sinopsis:

In these 42 pages didn't happened much.

Bryce doesn't know how to defend other people. I say this because Garrett told Bryce that the retarded uncle of Juli must give him a message from her. On the other hand, one Sunday morning Juli and her father went to visit David (Juli's uncle) at Greenheaven. Juli was a bit scared because she never met him and she didn't really know him. By the way Juli and her father went to Greenheaven because it was David's birthday. So, after they gave him his present all three of them went to get some ice-cream. Right then, when David's cone smashed into the table and into the floor, he had a meltdown. That's when Juli understood the situation of his uncle and wondered what else could have happened in the past. Anyway, when Juli and her father were arriving home, he apologized for "providing" so little to her and the family. When they finally arrived Trina announced that Patsy had invited them over to dinner Friday night. Days after that event, when Juli was at the library she overheard Bryce's and Garret's conversation. She heard them laughing at his uncle, which made her very angry. Anyway, the day of the dinner arrived. In the viewpoint of Bryce, he felt uncomfortable because Juli had told him she heard mocking his uncle, but still could not stop looking at her. In the view of Juli, she has every right to not go for all that Bryce has done to her, but she didn't say a word because her mother seemed so happy for the dinner. Surprisingly Bryce tried to apologize to her but she didn't let him at all, she also didn't wanted to talk at him too. But after having time to reflect, Juli felt like the "rude" one and SHE went and apologyzed to Bryce.

Quotes:

"A man appeared at the door. A man I would never have picked out as my father's brother. He was stock, with thick brown glasses, and his face looked puffy and pale. But he threw his arm around my father's chest and cried, "Woobbad! Yaw heew!"

I think that Robert is so grateful and careing for his brother. He sent him to Greenheaven, he made sacrifices only for him to be happy, and he made sure he was all right and comfortable. I think Juli is lucky to have such an amazing father, and I think David is very grateful to have a brother that cares this much about him.

"So I'm standing there, wishing I'd punched Garrett out in the library so Juli wouldn't stick me in the same class as someone who makes retard jokes."

I think that Bryce finally reflected on what he should've done instead of just keep it  to himself. He feels bad about what he had done, and he does apologyze but Juli does not forgive him. This is making Bryce regret everything he made.

Final Thoughts:

Well, in the next forty-two pages what happened was that Bryce and Garrett made fun of Juli's uncle, Juli gets to know David, the Bakers and the Loski's have dinner, Juli tells Bryce she is mad at him although he apologyzed. My prediction was right!!!! Juli finally wants nothing to do with Bryce but he keeps apologizing. I think that further in the book is that Juli forgave him and they start their friendship from the begining.
