The Last Delivery Of The Night

Sean also faced several sensory issues. When he was a baby, he squirmed and twisted uncomfortably trying to break through his mother’s arms as if he felt that he was trapped (p. 8). He also hated walking around with bare feet and when did “he would tuck his toes underneath so he could

Sean commented, "the kids from McDougald go to Northern, but they are not sure if its in the district, but Sean's brother is supposed to keep the 1 bedroom apartment so he can continue to catch the bus at their old address."

"Aren't we going to call the firemen?" Katie asked, wrenching her hand from her brother's grasp.

When speaking to the counselor Sean admits that, he does not remember what happened last night or how he came to be at the hospital. He remembered being at the Sigma house and playing a drinking game around 10:00 pm and did not remember much after that. He even mentioned a story about drinking when he was in high school. Sean was very worried that his parents would find out and that they would make him come home. He seemed to be very nervous about not knowing whether his parents were called or not. Sean admitted to smoking marijuana before the party. He also stated that a friend gave him oxycontin.

"So, I'm going to the diner to get food for me and my daughter and then heading back home." I pull off.

“Okay. If you get there before I do call me back. I'll do the same thing.”

When I returned home to Glendara, the authorities wanted me to identify Sean’s remains. They also asked that I look at the other body to see if I could recognize him.

“I’m certain I can win, I will go next.”. Right at that moment the gleaming red bell rang and a thin man announced, “The winner is Sean!”. Natasha walked up and challenged Sean to a match.

After being anxious all day, it was time for Joe to execute his plan. He snuck out the back door of his home after unlocking all 6 locks on it and he walked around the corner to first check his air conditioner. It was in perfect condition as expected. Then came the trash compactors, this check took a little longer because of the compactor’s complexity, but it was in working order, with full loads of trash and recycling in the proper bins. Then came his garden and it was far from how Joe had left

" Pete.... " Mikey said in a zeal tone from the bedroom. The shorter boy emerged into the room.

* Jim got out of the hospital and went to get the Cadillac and was pissed to find out Sean had sold it to Tim. Sean offered to give him his money back, but Jim wanted the Cadillac.

"Still, anything could happen, your job is to make sure he complies with the rules. If everything goes well, I will ask you to come back."

This helped him to get to Sean, and ask where the picture

The Road is a novel that depicts a gritty story of survival, where a man and his son are sustained by love for each other. In a world coated with ash, a man walks down a lonesome road, accompanied solely by his son. The world was left barren and charred after an unknown disaster pillaged the land. Few people are left and supplies are dangerously scarce. Although a few kind souls remain in the ravages of America, savages reign over the land. In the novel, the pair is left, each the other’s world entire. They own very little and all their worldly possessions are pushed around in an old shopping cart, including some tarps, blankets, and some canned food. Starvation and lack of sustenance is a recurring situation that is solved time

The Road takes place in post-apocalyptic America after an unknown disaster occurs. The novel centers around a boy and his father, both of whom are never given names. In an analepse, the reader learns that the mother of the boy kills herself with “a flake of obsidian” as she fears that she would be raped and murdered (McCarthy 30). “[The man] hadn’t kept a calendar for years” and the reader is left unsure what year or month it is (McCarthy 2). The man is sure, however, that winter is approaching and it would be best for him and the boy to travel south where it is warmer. They have nothing but a pistol, their clothes, and a cart with food they scavenged for. The world is barren with “dust and ash everywhere” (McCarthy 3). The story chronicles the man and boy’s journey to the south while they look for food, supplies, and shelter. The pair must fend off “bad guys” during their journey as well (McCarthy 39). When one of these “bad guys” puts his knife at the boy’s throat, the man is left with no other option than to shoot the “bad guy” leaving a “hole in his forehead” (McCarthy 34). Another gruesome event occurs when the man and boy are looking for food in a house they found. While walking down a cellar’s stairs, they smell an “ungodly stench” (McCarthy 56). In the cellar, there are “naked people” who are whispering “help us” and a maimed man on a mattress with his “legs gone to the hip and the stumps of them blackened and burnt” (McCarthy 56). These people are being kept to be eaten eventually and the man and his son
