Chapter 16 Summary

The next day, Trent reads a book in PE. Noah sits out with him for the first time, and they talk about baseball. Noah thought that Trent hated baseball because he didn’t join the intramural league. He wishes that he didn’t have to join, but his uncle is the coach. Noah thinks that it was wrong for Trent to beat up Jeremiah, even though he’s a jerk.

At lunch, Trent notices Noah sitting alone. Meanwhile, Fallon is quiet and withdrawn. She says that she isn’t mad at Trent, but Trent knows something is wrong. Fallon says that she can’t do movie club anymore because her parents are making her be in the school play, but Trent thinks she’s lying. He offers to draw her a picture in his Book of Thoughts, but she rejects the idea and excuses herself from lunch.

Trent tries to get detention in Ms. Emerson’s class, but she ignores his rude remarks. After school, he confides in Ms. Emerson that Fallon is mad at him and that he doesn’t know what to do. Ms. Emerson tells him that people can do things that help them alleviate their anger. Ms. Emerson has Trent water her plants to cool his temper, and she suggests that he water them again tomorrow.
