Three weeks with my brother: post # 4

Summary: In this section of the book, the reader realizes that things were not always what they seem. Despite the fact that Micah and Nicholas are very "tight" and caring of one another, there were times in their childhood in which they had some conflict. It was very surprising when I saw how far they would get carried away, and the only way to resolve their conflicts is by fighting. And I don't mean regular sibling pushing, and kicking. I mean fists were going around. Both of them were on the floor. The fight was very shocking, and im their parents felt the same way because they were shocked too. Their mother had to drag  them apart, and they were still kicking and screaming when their mother stopped the fight. Then after the reader has lost all hope of the brothers ever being friends again, one of them decided to become the bigger man and apoligize for what they had done. Then the other would apoligize, and Dana (the youner sister) would ask them if "that was so hard?"

Favorite Quotes: "Nicky?" "What?" "Im sorry about punching you today." "It's okay, im sorry i pushed over your bike." "that's okay." "now was that so hard?" said Dana

This quote gives the reader an even better view of how close these two were. After i read the part with the fight I thought that these two would never look at eachother again. But then (after 2 pages) the love for eachother forces them to apoligize.
