Chapter 11 - Silent Boy
Please post your comments on Chapter 11 of the Silent Boy here.
Chapter eleven was a bit more interesting than most of the other chapters in my opinion. I found it really amusing how Austin Bishop’s father goat a new advanced and expensive camera and seemed to be showing it off. I found it really interesting when Katy mentions in the story that she caught Peggy’s sister Nell and Paul not once but twice in the barn doing something that seemed to Katy to be inappropriate. It makes me wonder if they’re ever going to get caught for real and get in trouble. I found the best part to be when Mr. Bishop took a picture of Peggy and Nell and then Katy said that it was the last time that they were all happily together which make a reader think that a tragedy is going to take place.
Katy and Peggy got closer and they spend most of their time together. And Katy teased her because Peggy was blushed when Katy talks about Floyd Lehman. This chapter is mostly about Nell. It was really interesting when I read about Nell and Paul and I guess Katy knew that Nell and Paul like each other. And it was so funny when Katy starts to dislike Paul after she saw Paul and Nell in the Bishop’s barn and Nell’s apron was untied. Maybe she thought that’s not a romantic. Mr. Bishop got a new camera and all of them gathered to take a picture. I think they were really enjoyed and happy.
Katy knew that there was something between Austin's brother Paul and Peggy's sister Nell. They suddenly stick together a lot, but they wanted it as a secret. One day, an event happened that broke Katy's imagination of romance which was that Paul and Nell did something in the barn while Kate was looking for Austin. However, Austin's father liked the machines and he wanted to take pictures of his family and Katy's family.
I think i like chapter eleven too. i really like how Peggy and Katy are getting close spending alot of time together. It kinda reminded me of my past. I think i get the picture about Paul and Nell. I thought it was funny how Katy found Nell and Paul in the bishops barn and didnt like paul after that. I thought Katy was grossed out, i mean come on shes a little girl. But seriously i think she knows whats going on, i think it's random for a little girl to catch two people in a barn and the girl apron untied, awkward,lol. I thought it was funny how mr.bishop took a picture of Peggy and Nell, and Katy spoke and said it was the last time they were all going to be happy together, imean whats that suppose to mean right?.
Katy told Peggy that nell likes paul she tells her that she sees how they are flirting and how paul goes up to her behind her back, Peggy told her to stop talking about it because its not true, Peggy doest really know about this because she doesn’t see what katy sees, if I myself is telling someone thtat I saw this person this and that they would not believe not if unless we were friends, that’s why Ive been wantin people that doesn’t know me to believe me because I don’t want them to think of me as a liar.
Okay! This chapter made me think that Peggy was going to run away with Katy at the beginning but Peggy was only trying to make Katy get out of the house so that Katy’s mother could deliver the baby. I also think that Jacob is a nice boy after all. He gave Katy the kitten that she’s been wishing to have and I think that’s very sweet of Jacob to do. The weird part is Jacob never takes his hat off but he had to because his father had to get mad at him for that. I think I dislike Jacob’s father he sounds very mean. I wonder why Jacob never looks at Katy in the eye or even speak words that would make sentence; all he does is imitate sounds he hears. I really feel sorry for Jacob…
Chapter 11 – May 1911 The picture they took of Nell and Peggy are shown looks so alike. They look really young too. It amazes me how back then customs changed from now. I just am thankful that education is mandatory and I feel good that I’m finally graduating. Katharine caught Paul and Nell in the act about to have sex I believe. Katharine’s too young to be seeing that and I think they should be doing that somewhere else like in the bedroom. I bet Paul was pissed because he didn’t get to start and that they got caught by Katharine. I think that they should just do it in the bedroom instead of the barn, kind of freaky to do it in the barn… With animals around… etc.

"I do love you sakura" "then stop denying it, say it..and mean it" he looked deep into her eyes, he then reached out and held her hands in his. "I love you sakura, you are the first and the only person I will ever love, and whatever I have to do to keep you safe, i'll do it, even if I have to die trying" she smiled, and her eyes sparkled with tears that fell over. "Ditto" and they shared there first real kiss with eachother.
