Interesting Facts

• He was afraid of Willow.
• Willow hid her hit lists on his computer, under a paper on George Washington.
• His father refused to leave him alone with Willow.
• After his parents bought him a puppy for his last birthday, Willow killed it by breaking its neck and throwing it out the window as he was coming home from school.
• Willow had physically hurt him.
• He told Trueheart he felt terrorized by Willow. Sometimes he’d wake up in the middle of the night with her in his room just sitting there staring at him. Once she held a knife to his throat and dared him to call for help. She told him he might end up going out the window, going splat on the sidewalk like his puppy, or maybe his father would end up with his throat slit some night if he didn’t keep his mouth shut, or how his mother might fall down the stairs one day, and when the cops came one of his toy trucks would be there and they’d put him in jail.
