This chapter opens with a conversation between a girl and her friend, who are discussing the events of the previous day. The girl tells the friend that she feels like she is being ignored by the girl's sister, who is the next door neighbor, and that she needs to meet up with the girl. She tells the girl to hang out with a guy who is in middle school, and the girl says that she would like to punch the girl in the face if she does not come out of her hiding place.
