The Next Move of the "Admirer"

Summary 

Sawyer and her best friend, Chloe, arrive to a party at night, and after being there for a while, Chloe is hit on the corner of the eye by someone who was trying to cut the brakes of her car. The next morning, after not sleeping during the night, Sawyer run around her neighborhood and feels as if someone is following her. She decides to forget what happened and she goes with Chloe to a football game. The day after that, at school, Sawyer is told that Mr. Hanson, her Spanish teacher, died of an allergic reaction to peanuts. She is called to the principal's office where a detective asked her some questions and when she is about to leave, she receives a bouquet of flowers with a note attached and a bag of 100% Cold-Pressed Gourmet Peanut Oil which she assumes is from the "admirer" that gave her the other note.  


Quote 1

"Well, when you're eleven, whatever makes you not the same as all the other girls is tragic. I told Chloe I didn't care, but she was so terrified someone would find out. They moved into this crappy trailer park, sold their car. Maggie found out from her gossipy mom or something, and she pronounced. Chloe's new status went viral overnight. People made fun of her, called her trailer trash or ghetto girl." Sawyer shook her head, remembering. "She was crushed."
"But you stood by your friend."
"Of course." Sawyer smiled faintly. "She's my best friend." (p.71) 


This tells us a big part of Sawyer´s personality: she's kind and never leaves her friends behind or make them feel bad. On my daily life, I always try to make my friends feel happy when they´re sad. I also have many friends that do the same for me and I really appreciate it.

 

 

Quote 2

"The slide show continued the whole length of the song, and Sawyer watched, strangely riveted, her emotions rising and crashing with every other picture. As the photos got closer to the end of Kevin's life, Sawyer felt her heart start to pound; she felt sticky and hot underneath her thin Hornets T-shirt." (p. 89)


When I read this, I noticed that even though a lot of time has passed, Sawyer is still sad because of Kevin's death and she misses him. She still tries to move on, but it´s hard for her.


Conclusion 

I think that the person that killed Kevin, Mr. Hanson and hurt Chloe is the same person and that he or she is the one sending notes to Sawyer. My prediction for the next chapters is that Sawyer is going to be questioned again because she found the missing shoe the detective was looking after. I also think that she is going to continue receiving notes and she is going to tell Chloe about them. To conclude, I hope that the "admirer" will give some clues to Sawyer about who he/she is.
