It was Monday morning, and Travis is making toast with butter, and grandpa is smoking and says "Don't suppose you made me any." And grandpa answered to himself: "Nope course not."And after, grandpa closed the washroom door, and he made more gross morning noises. The house that Travis and his grandpa were in is too tiny and small, opening onto the kitchen and the family room.
After when eats his toast with butter for breakfast, Travis was at the sink washing the dishes and doing his chores. His grandpa says to Travis about his homework. His grandpa said, "You have 30 days to do your homework and 30 days without a drink". After his grandpa talks about Travis about his homework, and grandpa does not care about Travis. Grandpa says "Get out of here, you are ruining my good day,'' said grandpa to Travis. Travis has over an hour before when school started. So, Travis grabbed a donut and he turned right instead of left. Travis is trying to warm up. He had warm-up by walking fast.
Travis goes into the dog's driveway, and he gave a high or low whistle. The dog kept roaring at Travis. And his lips shared and his hair spiking back on his neck. Travis stood 15 feet distance far from the dog in the driveway. Travis was throwing a donut and toss it between them. The dog just ignored Travis and the dog barked: "Row, Wow, Wow." "Hi dog", Travis says to the dog on the driveway. Also, Travis is talking about the dogs pose. This is what he says to the dog, and what does he do: “You want to be more careful, jumping out at people like that. You could end up on your butt on the sidewalk.” After when the dog stopped barking, Travis toss another chuck to the dog's side of the road. And Travis said to the dog that he is leaving: “I’m leaving, see? Didn’t even come close to your drive.” Travis smiled: "Not so tough after all."
Travis was attempted to step into the cornfield. Travis was following the same route that he walked on Saturday. And he was moving in town around and around in circles. And he came up to a place where a 14-year-old girl named Velveeta who knocked Travis flat. And he was panicking and panicking, all over town.
And Velveeta was afraid of Travis hiding and running away. There is no hope that someone makes fun of 13-year old Travis in Salisbury. There is no place for him to go. Back at his house, he used to pick up old branches and whack them on trees. And he has grabbed an axe and worked on the woodpile. He slams the chunks of oak, splitting them clean.
All Travis gets from Velveeta is a bit of road rash on his hands. There was no-one calling him names and no-one laughing at him, not he was rolling his eyes! It is almost for him that he looked forward to school. So, he ran and he will not be late for the first period of his school-time.
The whole chapter is all about Travis was having toast for breakfast. And he met a strange dog and a 14-year old girl named Velveeta, that who knocked Travis. This took place when Travis is on his way to school.
