After coming back to his mothers house for a second time he does not deny him, him staying over she fears that without her he will end up homeless or dead.

It’s moving, but how?” Vernon had pulled out a pen and was scribbling his thoughts over a napkin. “Ok…ok, so let me think. The dreams started eight days ago, and I’ve been coming to this diner for the last four weeks.” He had drawn a small calendar on the paper napkin, which was tearing apart from Vernon pressing his pen down too hard. “On Sunday I slept for three hours, Monday I did the same, and on Tuesday it seemed like I never closed my eyes.” Across the street, a liquor store clerk was pulling down an aluminum shutter tagged with names and abbreviations. The next block over, the lights on a street cleaner lit-up the alley in front of the diner for a moment as it drove by sweeping the gutters. His mind had stopped when she had swung around from behind him, sliding herself into the booth and throwing her bag onto the table. “Counting the days till Christmas,” asked Gabby. She had crushed her cigarette butt out in the ashtray at the end of the counter, but the smoke still seemed to follow her across the diner. “You can say that,” replied Vernon, who looked sideways at a couple of empty prescription bottles that were sticking out of the top of her purse, then back at her eyes which were beginning to turn black. “Don’t worry, it’s nothing that won’t kill me.” She had reached under the table and lifted herself up, pulling off the stockings that she was wearing. Vernon could feel that she had slipped off her shoes when she had brushed her foot against

Paragrpah 1-Throughout Freedom Writers Eva is depicted as a character who is able to stand up for whats right despite the consquences. At the start we are shown that she is a “third generation gang member” and that she has grown up with this idea that she must protect her own. This construct’s Eva as being very protective of her own enthic group and that no matter the circumstances she will be on their side. This all changes once Eva becomes the only witness in a murder committed by her boyfriend while an innocent kid is the main suspect. Although Eva throughout the start of the film is portrayed as being always there for her gang, after the shooting she experiences an inner conflict.

As they begin to ascend the stairs in silence, Annie can’t help but feel a sense of dread knot within her stomach. It makes her slightly nauseous, knowing that she’ll have to face friends and relatives of the people she’d murder—

Days spent trying to comprehend it. “I think I like him a little too much…” Ava said to Carla, the only person she felt comfortable talking to about Layton. “Like I have some neurotic fever or something.” She tugged at her hair. “It is fucking intense, Carla.

****"Someone Named Eva" - Written from Eva's point of view, not all event's below are from the actual book**** Late Fall of 1943 Dear Momma, Today I saw the fence.

It takes some nudging but eventually he's on his back in the tall grass, shoulder-to-shoulder with her- waiting for the world to wake up.

An awkward silence follows the shutting of the door, which I don’t even notice, being too trapped within my own thoughts. Apri is the first to break the silence with a sigh and my thoughts shatters, my attention shifting. “Jensen,” she begins, rubbing the bridge of her nose. “Why must you always pull him into your

As the letters begin to evolve about specific events that were clear and obvious red flags in Kevin before his killing spree. For the reader, we can see Eva’s internal monologue begin to shift based on what she reveals and what she omits from the letters. In the beginning, Eva and her emotions were not shown to the reader besides through her cynicism towards the idea of motherhood even before she gives birth to Kevin. I believe her resentment towards Kevin began as early as her discussion with Franklin about his dream of becoming a father. Even though this news shocked Eva because she believed it was only going to be them two, she learns what makes Franklin may be the only important thing she can do.

He dismounted and held his arms up to help her down. Nodding her understanding, she tried moving her numb legs, but this shifted her off balance. She fell.

Stepping forward, he attempts to embrace Stella, which she reluctantly accepts as she begins weeping into his broad shoulders.

Due to his social context, George Sava – Russian born surgeon and novelist, author to a pseudo-biography of Eva, Mourning Becomes Argentina – had reason to dislike the Peróns. He recalls the time when, during World War II, Argentina raised the price England had to pay for beef, supposedly under the orders of Eva.
