In the last lesson we talked about Young Adult Literature (YAL) and its characteristics. I think that characteristic nr. 2 applies very much to the next chapter. Franky tries to be the big strong sister and she does not want to show her younger sister that she is afraid of what is going on between her parents. She is supressing her feelings. Franky is in a conflict with herself. Sometimes she just wants to be like a child so she could hug her sister and tell her that everything is going to be alright but somehow she is not able to do that because she is trying to act like an adult.
