Chapters 26-30 Summary

Whenever Harrison plays football, he discovers a deep-seated well of anger that he channels into his performance on the field. He proves to be a formidable player, but his intense approach to the game causes several players, including Leo, to be sidelined due to injuries. After practice, he feels a mixture of pride and exhaustion and initially declines an invitation from his teammate, Justin, to join the other boys at Subway, but he eventually agrees when Justin insists on treating him. At Subway, Harrison is excited to learn that he can earn money by mowing lawns. However, the conversation takes a serious turn when he unintentionally reveals the tragic circumstances surrounding the death of his previous foster father, creating a tense and awkward moment among his peers.

Later, Coach Kelly reassures Harrison that injuries during practice are just part of the game. He also offers Harrison a cell phone to further welcome him into his new family. As time goes on, tension escalates after Leo’s father, who works for the District Attorney, seeks to meet with Coach Kelly and complains of a rule violation on Harrison’s part, threatening Harrison’s position on the team.
