Status Updates From You Don't Even Know Me: Sto...

I think tow-Kaye will try to run away from the wedding but he wont because he's liked Cinderella since they were 4 years old.

We see the perspective of this 15 year olds life of trying to work and staying out late and smoking. I noticed how it seems his mom talks about him needing to make money and it made me wonder if he lives in the same house as her and why he would be forced to start working at a young age. I predict that he will start to mature at a young age or he loses motivation and joins a gang and lives a life of crime.

We see Eric and his home and how only he sees the beauty of Philadelphia and it made me think about things that hold a special place for me and how it is probably the same for him. I noticed how he mentioned to see it as a lifestyle than less as a home.

We see from Tylers perspective of his life and all the things that hes been told and to always stay tough and not getting soft. We see how every girl in his area has a crush on him but only Celeste makes him feel the way he does. I noticed that he tells himself he can get every girl he wants and it made me think about his future and if any girl will ever want to settle down and have a family if he won't show emotion.

We see from James perspective about his life he writes in his diary about hating life and hating his twin for killing himself. This poem makes you think deeper about how these problems formed on what Mr. E did to his brother and how that rooted to his hatred. I noticed how he used his thoughts as a way of reuniting instead of ending. And how people seemed more to be intrigued on what he was planning.

We see the next character who has an overweight dad and a dream we see him talk about how his dad is an amazing person but people still judge him about his weight. I noticed when he talked about what his dad does for people I just wondered to myself how judgmental people can be over something that defines a person. I predict his dad will lose weight and his son will talk about all the bad things people have said.

We see from the 3rd main characters Pov he is getting kicked out of relatives houses for years finding a new place to live each time. We find that he lives his life on the streets and falls behind school and smokes. This is significant because him getting kicked out could leave him with no further shelter. I noticed that he seems to not really think of someone as a person he just thinks of their appearance.

We see from the next character's POV, that he seem to live in a place of gun violence. We here his grandpa was killed in a shooting and then hear he want to take revenge. I predict that he will find a way to find out who murdered him and try to kill him but he will think of his grandmother and what she would want and maybe rethink his decision and stay out of gun violence.

As I read and found out the main character Two-Kaye is getting married at sixteen and finding out he is going to be a father and yet he doesn't know what to do with his life. I wonder if the marriage will work or if he might not want to be a father and abandon the mother and find a connection back to his child in the later future.
