A Lesson Before Dying reflection: day 11

Vivian has visited Grant at his home. They spent much time talking about one another’s lives and the neighborhood of the town. It is showing that their relationship is starting to grow. They both met back with Ms.Emma, Tante Lou and their other church associates at home. There is a tension due to Grant and Vivian’s prescience. After some time they women show that they like Vivian. They may even think that she’s too good for Grant and he will effect her negatively. Since Vivian has mentioned it, Grant planned a Christmas program with his kids at the school. He said for them to remember somebody this season, this could possibly be about Jefferson. Later ass the day went on Ms.Emma confronted Grant saying how he lied about what Jefferson has done and said. She and he others who visited him had first accountancy of his games he has been playing in his cell with his talk of being a big. He also still had showed blankness and just no emotion at all. All of this caused Ms Emma to slap him. It hurt her deeply to do so; she feels that God is punishing her with this because he hates her. Meanwhile Tante Lou tells Grant that he still must keep visiting and must help this situation get better whether he wants to or not.
