Returnable Girl (Pages: 116-156)

POST #3

Summary:
Lucky? The dog? Missing !? Lucky for a split second went missing. Ronnie went ballistic, she threw a tantrum. Ronnie was worried about Paige not talking to her earlier that morning that she did not keep an eye on the dog. Ronnie felt guilty. -Garage door opens- Woof Woof . Turns out that Lucky was in the garage because their neighbors put him there, the neighbors saw lucky out in the cold and rain and put him in the garage for his safety. Paige was out of the normal because she had her period. Ronnie and Britnee were invited to Paige's house for a sleep over, with no parent or guardian , you can already smell trouble. They were all very bored, so they decided to call up some friends. Little did they know that those friends invited older friends and the house was a zoo when everyone was partying. Marissa came home from college and she did threw everyone out, but she did not help to clean that was all Paige's job. Sadly, Paige does not know how to clean, so Ronnie was left with that duty. Alison did not find out of a thing. Ronnie 2 weeks later received a call from her mom saying if she got a letter, a letter that Alison kept away from Ronnie for all that time. Ronnie is not holding on to the slightest bit of rope, before she heads over to Alaska. Ronnie's mom is ready to take her in.

Quote:
Ronnie stated "Of course with all that going on this morning, anybody would've had to rush like crazy in order to make the bus and anybody might have forgotten to bring Lucky back inside." (Lowell 118).

Reaction:
What this quote is talking about is when Lucky escaped and when she was recapping what had gone on that day. What was eye appealing was when she italicized the word "anyone". She was actually referring to her self and you can see that she used a similie, "... had to rush like crazy". This quote also brings up how careless Ronnie is sometimes and how  others suffer because of her wrong doings. When Ronnie throws tantrums and hits things or throws em around Alison feels her pain and she gets melancholy. The dog, Lucky, is symbolism. He is a dog that Ronnie always wanted and named Lucky, all in all, Ronnie has always wanted to be lucky, have happiness which is what the dog brings to her life.
