Ch. 6-7 Rosaleen - Head in the Clouds

That girl is living in a fantasy! What does Lily think she's doing? This new life may all and well be good right now, but it wont stay like this forever. What if her father comes looking for her? What about when the Boatwright sisters finally learn the truth or our circumstances? She's already cavorting around with a black boy, she'll never be able to have anything with him, it just wouldn't be accepted. That girl has her head in the clouds! She'd better come down soon or she may be in for some real trouble.

Ch. 4-5 Rosaleen - Jealousy

Lily's spending so much time with August now. I'm happy for her, but at the same time I wish it was me instead. Am i jealous? I didn't know I cared that much,before I was the only one Lily could turn to, but there are other kind people in her life now. She's no longer as dependent on me, her world is expanding and I'm not the only one in it anymore, I'll just have to get used it.

Ch. 4-5 Rosaleen - Irritation

Ooohhh. That girl! I love her to pieces, but she's so reckless! Why did she lie? We found that August Boatwright she was looking for, and in her infinite wisdom, she told August some story about how we'd runaway after he father had died in a traffic accident. We could get in so much trouble! Now somehow we're living with them. I don't even understand how all of this is happening, it still seems unreal.

And she keeps speaking for me like I'm not here! I can do my own talking thank you very much. In reality, I'm not really even her made anymore, she shouldn't be speaking for me :k It's so irritating!

Ch 1. Rosaleen - Injustice

Those white men! Always acting like pigs and getting in the way! I went into town to register to vote again and three white men come up all smug like and start taunting me. Well, I wasn’t having none of that and spilled some chewing-tobacco juice on their shoes. Then, instead of registering, I got put in jail! Poor Lily had to come too. They also beat me up pretty bad and I’m stuck in the hospital. They were in the wrong! Will the injustices of this world never end?
