The beginning of this chapter kind of sucks because Dwight was no longer in the Picketts foster care because it wasn't working out for Dwight. But then Antwone tells a bit about him, he talks about how Dwight got into some bad stuff. Bad stuff like smoking and listening to music he shouldn't have been listening to.
Dwight was also taking to a Boy's Town, or a correctional facility for misbehaved, adolescent males. And it was a sad and depressing leave for Dwight, he was happy but Antwone was now on his own. He would now have to face the wrath of Mizz Pickett alone.
Antwone became one of those kids that love school because of what happens at home. And he has good reason, only because when he's at school, he gets good grades, he has lots of friends, and he just feels as though it's his haven in general.
I love the very intense scene with Mizz Pickett, Ms Nees, and Antwone in the lobby. I love that Antwone completely owned Mizz Pickett with what he said to her, and the cool thing is...Ms Nees believed "Antwone"!
