Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Walking alone without an arm sling for the first time since the accident, Chase wonders about the identity of the little girl in the lacey blue dress, whom he thinks of whenever he sees a playground. Coming to a playground, he sees his half-sister Helene playing on the equipment. Helene falls from the top of the monkey bars, and Chase catches her just before she hits the ground. Playfully, he flies her in a circle. She enjoys it until she realizes Chase is holding her, then screams in fear. His stepmother Corinne thanks him but is very reserved. He realizes they don’t care for him.
His father pulls up in his electric shop truck and yells to say he’s bringing large steaks home. He asks Chase why he isn’t at football practice. When Chase tells him the doctor doesn’t want him to play because of his concussion, Frank criticizes doctors as overprotective. He invites Chase to come over to his house for steaks.
Chase tries to piece together who he was to the students at Hiawassee Middle School. He knows he was an essential part of the football team and a big shot among the players, though he doesn’t care for their constant, disrespectful roughhousing.
