Chapter 9: A Story in Three Parts

Part I- Doll
Big Time had followed his daily routine of asking his
grandmother for money. Every time he did, she would go on to tell a story about old times. This time she talked about Doll. Doll was slave with children. She begged her mistress not to sell her. Her wish was fulfilled. However, when a person came to buy slaves, he took the children. Doll's mistress allowed some time alone with her kids. Shhe killed them. Death was better than life, in their cases. Big Time got the money and left.

Part II- Sweet Jimmy
Sweet Jimmy is a drug supplier. Big Time paid him money for an injection that got him high. During that period of time, Sweet Jimmy and Big Time talked about the S.A.T.s.

Part III The Roof
Big Time needed to escape. So he always went to an old building roof. When he got up there, he saw a little boy. His name was Benny and lived on an avenue. They talked for a moment. All of a sudden, there was a blast of fire on the side of the building. Benny was panicing. At first, Big Time didn't care. Then, he thought of a plan and sat on the ledge with Benny. They jumped to the other building. They made it. This changed Big Time's life. He was now going to do something with his life.

  1. um, if you can, can you explain the relationship between Miss Pat and Big Time? That helps to understand the concept of this story... yes i know that slavery seems to come up from time to time, that only the conflict of the story, the little details really do help! Thanks
