My Second Post~read up to chapter 23
Thus far the story has been surprisingly good. Although he ended up getting in trouble in the end, Marcus did a very noble thing to help Charlie get to the Homecoming game at EBU. Charlie may not even remember the massive ovation he received at the stadium, but it was still an incredible moment in his life that may be one of the few he remembers as the disease gets even worse. That's why I believe Marcus did the right thing by bringing him to the game. The one mistake he made was not telling the real Mac that Charlie wasn't supposed to be at the game. If Marcus told him, Mac would have better understood their situation, and I'm sure he would've agreed that it was the right thing to do. If Mac understood the magnitude of the situation he might have been able to prevent Charlie from running away. Instead, Charlie was brought in to the police station and Officer DeLuca almost had to arrest Marcus for kidnapping Charlie. It will be very interesting to see how Charlie's family reacts once Marcus returns home to Kennesaw.
