                                               Me and you.

I was very surprise of the ending of the book. The relationship between 

Lorenzo and Olivia is was very good. They promised to each other that; they 

will change so when they see each other again, and they were very happy to 

see people that they love change in the positive way. But after ten years when 

Lorenzo tried to find Olivia again she was already death, because she took so 

many heroin. That show Olivia didn’t keep the promise with Lorenzo. We 

don’t know what happen, but I think see was tried to keep the promise with 

Lorenzo, but if you already take heroin is very hard to stopped taking it. 

Maybe in front of Lorenzo she felt very strong; she felt like there is there is 

some people who always support her, so she can stop taking heroin. Is so 

different when she come out and fighting alone with out any body with out 

Lorenzo support her. She just cannot did it and go back to took heroin. In the 

end of the book it didn’t really so what is the reaction to Olivia death, but I 

think he must be very sad and disappointed. He was sad because; he felt like 

anybody who he love, who have a good relationship with him just die. First 

is his grandmother and now is Olivia. He felt disappointed because the 

person that he really loves didn’t keep the promises with him. But I also 

think Lorenzo will understand for Olivia. That what she have been through 

for the past ten years. How Olivia have to flight alone with one anybody 

beside here. I think he must be disappointed about himself to because he is 

not there when Olivia need him. He should beside her when she practices the 

life with out heroin. Like I said after all the relationship between Lorenzo 

and Olivia is very good from the begging of the book, and I somehow can 

guess that happen. In the begging of the book we can see Lorenzo didn’t 

have a good relationship anybody expect his grandmother.  Suddenly Olivia 

show up and need Lorenzo help, and there is only two people in the basement 

together. They also share a some personality . So anybody can kind of guess 

the relationship between Lorenzo and Olivia will become better and of 

course Olivia is the you in the story. After reading the book I learned that 

only one moment, one second, one person that may not very close to us can 

change our life, can make us more positive about what we have to become 

who we are before, and love can do everything. Without love you cannot do 

anything.
