The Bully - Chapter 6-7
Darrell did not feel alone anymore because he had found 1 friend he could sit with in lunch so he was not going to eat alone again. He was tired of being bullied that he wanted to tell someone about what was happening with Tyray, he really needed to talk to someone and the only one he could think of was Mr. Mitchell. He went to Mr. Mitchell`s class room after school. Darrell sat in a desk near Mr. Mitchell but he did not know what to say to him. Mr. Mitchell knew something was wrong so he started asking Darrell that if he has been having problems, Darrell for some reason could not tell Mr Mitchell what was happening with Tyray. Mr Mitchell told Darrell a story of his life when he was Darrell`s age. He said that he was skinny and short like Darrell, Darrell did not believe him because Mr Mitchell was a tall and strong person. Mr Mitchell said that he was bullied a lot because of his size, suddenly he started reading a book called Hatchet he noticed that he needed to be strong from the inside as well as the outside. I think the 2 main reasons why some one do not tell they are being bullied is because they have been threatened or because they are ashamed.

The Bully - Chapter 6
Darrel went to the market to buy some oranges that his mother needed. When he was retuning from the market he saw Tyray and Rodney running towards him. Darrell's stomach sank and his chest started to pound. He wanted to drop the oranges and sprint home, But the only thing Darrell did is walk home.When Tyray cut up Darrell he started bothering Darrell and he asked him for money, Darrell replied to him saying that he did not had any money that he spend what he had on oranges. Tyray got out a knife and put it on Darrell`s face and said to him that next time when Tyray asks Darrell for money he better have some to give to Tyray. Tyray before he left staved the orange bag and started crushing them, Darrell was able to save a few oranges.When Tyray was gone Darrell was crying not because he was afraid but because he was mad.He started picking the oranges that were not crushed and put them in the ripped bag. A lady called Mrs Davis. saw him and decided to give him a bag she had. Darrell thanked her and she told him about his grandson Harold, that he didn't had any friends because he was shy. Later Mrs Davis asked Darrell if he could be friends with Harold, Darrell said yes. When he got home he started to think about what happened with Tyray and he laid in the ground and did push ups. The next morning during his lunch period he saw Harold and went up to his table and started talking to him

The Bully - Chapert 4-6
When Darrell exit the market after he went and bought groceries that his mother needed he hurried back home. During the night Darrell could not sleep because he was really nervous because it was going to be his first day at bluford High school. When the day came Darrell didn't want to go to school because he didn't know any body in that school except amberlynn but he didn't know if he was going to see her. Also, because he knew that he was going to sit by him self during lunch. When he got to his first class (English class) he looked around and saw amberlynn, but amberlynn didn't notice that Darrell was in her class or she was afraid she was going to be noticed talking to the new kid in school. A kid that was sitting behind him punched Darrell, when Darrell turned back he saw Tyray, Darrell got scared because he didn't want to be near Tyray. When the school day ended Darrell went to his locker and went home as fast as he could, he didn't want to see Tyray. Finally, when he got home, his mother asked him how was school. Darrell didn't want to lie to his mom that he had a bad day but he also didn't want her to worry every time he goes to school.
The bully - Chapter 1-4
In this part of the book Darrell and his mom got into a bus to go to California. During the road Darrell saw some stuff that made him think about the good times he had with his friends Malik, Reggie, & Mark which made him sad. When the bus arrived to California, Darrell`s uncle Jason was waiting for them to take them to their apartment.When they were going to their new apartment, uncle Jason took Darrell to see his new high school. The next day, Darrell`s mom asked Darrell to go to the market, when Darrell was on to the market he saw a girl and started saying in his mind that she is so beautiful, he wanted to speak to her but he was thinking why would a girl that pretty want to talk to Darrell.The girl who's name is Amberlynn noticed Darrell and started a conversation with him. I think any body who has moved away from where they have lived all their childhood and suddenly moves away its hard because they leave everything behind like good friends that you might not ever see again.
