When Ruby met Ahmad at her moms work, I don’t think she was very excited. As it says on page 109, Ruby says “Im fine.” When Mr. Saleem told Ahmad to walk her home. And when her mom says that Ahmad seems like a good friend, Ruby says. “i hate this place, i hate this place, I HATE THIS PLACE, I HATE THIS PLACE.”

I feel like Isa is happy for her parents, but also not, I think this because when John Mark asked Isabella is he could ask her mom to marry her, she was very hesitant. And when her dad asked Anastasia, she said “The paintings on the wall look stiff, and unsmiling Just like i feel right now.”
