Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Del is upset Mason is hitting on Kiera at the Harvest Fest. When he tries to focus Kiera on the task at hand with the tickets, she cuts Del off to chat with Mason, who brought his little sisters to the event. After Mason leaves, Del thinks his opportunity with Kiera is disappearing, so he lies and states that Pastor Newsome wants them to work together on their final project in Purity Pledge. When Kiera asks, Del says that Newsome met with him about the project, which is still weeks away. Del states that since they’re the elders, it’s up to them to lead. Kiera agrees they can meet, so they set a date that Friday at a restaurant.
At school, Del has a substitute teacher in English class. Later, Healthy Living class is canceled. The students go to regular gym class instead, where they are with those (such as Jameer) who weren’t allowed to take Healthy Living. Del worries that it’s his fault the class was canceled. Maybe by talking to Newsome, he hurt MJ’s reputation and unknowingly got the class canceled. Del feels guilty and anxious.
