"Suspicion"
Do you think Shay has a right to be jealous of Tally? Why or why not?
I don't think so i mean David wasn't Shay's boyfriend or anything like that. Tally didn't know much about Shay and David. David's a free man he can do whatever he wants.
Tally received a gift from David in the chapter that is special. Have you ever received something that made others jealous as this gift did? Did your gift have a meaning behind it as Tally's had?
No not really all of my gifts have been birthday presents.
