The durian deal Ch 17

17 

On the way home, Chase kept looking at me

I pulled his face away

What?” 

He tried again. So, you liked me from the 

start?” 

Since I had talked about being a body double

he had been happy

I looked at his face. It was hard to say no

When you’re lost, and someone is like a star

then they shine down on you, it’s easy to fall 

for them

And when you look closer, you see that the 

real person is so much nicer, and more fragile 

than you thought

Chase’s dad had died when he was five

Before that he had a perfect life

Mrs. Thompson was a happy and silly woman

When her husband died, her family wanted to 

take the company. The mother and son could 

have easily lost everything they had worked 

so hard for

Mrs. Thompson started working to make sure 

they were safe, she had to stay strong, and 

couldn’t fall apart

upu 

Chase was alone. He felt it was his fault that 

his mom wasn’t around, so he had become

perfect son, always doing what he was told

He got perfect scores, did everything that 

was asked. But his mom was always working

There was no one to cheer for him. Birthdays 

were spent with a dark house

Chase got tired of being good. He became 

bad, he didn’t go to a top school, and started 

acting out

And when he went to acting, his mom was not 

mad, she went and bought a company to 

make sure he was safe

They were so close but so far apart
