Long Answer

1. Connor sees Evan’s mom researching to help Evan during her lunch at work. Connor views this as caring for Evan. Evan sees his mom as distant due to her working so much. Later when she speaks to Evan about her research, Evan is annoyed she does not want to just hang out with him without this focus. (Chapters 1-5)

2. When the Murphys speak to Evan in the principal’s office and reveal they think the letter Evan wrote was written by Connor, he does not correct them immediately for multiple reasons. He has reflected on his social anxiety, which might have kept him from fully speaking his mind, especially with adults he just met. He also sees how much the letter means to the Murphys—how important it is to them that their son had a close friend. (Chapters 1-5)
