In this chapter, it is shown even more how careless Monique is for her children. When Gerald mentions that Angel looks like she is getting worse, she merely shrugged it off. Later, she leaves Angel alone at home, while she is still sick.
Gerald tried to comfort Angel, and finally decided that he would tell somebody about Jordan and his abuse. So, he left for school early, and battled with himself on whether to call the cops, or rather to talk to someone. Then, his friend, Rob, and his dad, Mr. Washington, pulled up in their car to go to school. Gerald ended up telling Rob's dad everything, who decided to go to the police about Gerald's issue.
I thought that the end of this chapter was relieving. I was very glad to read about Mr. Washington saying he was going to go to the police. Hopefully, he will help things become better for Gerald and Angel.
