Shattered Pages (83-123)

Darcy is feeling like she is being lied to and betrayed. Darcy is mad at her sister for being in her business. She doesn't like how all the freshman are gossiping about her. Darcy is worried from seeing a red Toyota that looks like Brians. She knows Brian Mason has returned. Darcy and Tarah didn't talk to eachother in class. After class Tarah gave Darcy an apology letter from Hakeem saying how sorry he was. Darcy wrote him back telling him to meet her after school. Darcy tells Hakeem how she met someone while he was gone. She tells him how Brian wouldn't stop, and she doesn't know what would have happened if her dad hadn't come over. Hakeem is furious and tells Darcy that Brian needs to be taught a lesson. Hakeem rushed off and Darcy is worried of what he might do. Darcy rushes home not knowing what to do. When she arrives, Tarah called Darcy to let her know that Coop and Hakeem were going after Brian.

Darcy storms out of her house on her way to Brians apartment. When she gets there she sees Hakeem and Brian arguing. Hakeem punches Brian in the face and Darcy starts to scream. Darcy tells Coop to help her break up the fight.
When Darcy gets home, Jamee is on the phone looking for her dad. Her mom hurt her back at work and needed a ride from him. They are worried that he is not working and out drinking. When their dad gets home, they tell him how their mom is hurt. They rush to the hospital to go pick up Mattie. Darcy tells her mom how she will work more to help out since her mom couldn't work anymore. Darcys father tells her and Jamee why he wasn't at work. He tells them he was at a meeting for people with drinking problems. He promises to get better for them. Darcy hears her dad shattering the beer bottles into the trash, a sound sweeter than any music.

Do you think that Darcy's dad is comitted to going to the meetings and that he will quit drinking once and for all?
