Synopsis
Kerry got a call, the same threatening call but this time he realized it wasn't who he thought it was. He had bumbed into Margo and she told him that she didn't knew any Mandy and she didn't set him up with her either. Ring! another phone call but this time it was Donald... Later when Kerry was hanging out with Mandy she told him that someone was following her and she believed it was Donald. They got into a car crash and he revived the accident he had with Amanda and Donald.
Secrets In Between The Lines...
"Kerry was relieved that his father had decided to play the role of policeman rather than outraged father"(125).
I can relate to this quote because a lot of times that I have gotten myself into trouble my parents would completely outrage instead to be calm and patient. I can see that Kerry is beggining to have a close and bonding relationship with his father. After all they've been through I can see that Lt. Hart wants to make things right.
"He saw it all. He heard it. He smelled it. Smelled the blood, the burning rubber, smelled the horror"(153).
I can imagine the scenario in which Kerry has gotten himself in. I can imagine myself being in the scene because of the powerful imagery Stine applies in each word he uses. After the past year that Kerry couldn't remeber anything he suddenly has an abrupt flashback that he can even feel, see, smell, and taste what have really happened. Was it his fault?
Final Thoughts
I don't know why I think that the person that has been calling Kerry threatening him is Mandy. She is a very suspicious girl and as Kerry said, "she is rare, she is different". Also, he had his flashback when he was in the car with Mandy and they almost got themselves into a car crash. Was it Mandy's fault? Is Donald dangerous or is he trying to help Kerry? Was Mandy the one that provoked that flashback? I am almost at the end of the story and I can wait to find answers to the questions that are swirling in my head.
