The other day at the tree, something terrible happened. In that moment, while Finny was further out on the limb than I, I shook the branch, causing him to fall. Finny shattered his leg from his fall. No one even suspects me of any wrongdoing. I've been spending a lot of time alone, for no one is allowed to see Finny in the infirmary. I don't even know what to think. While Finny was in the infirmary, I tried on his pink shirt. When I looked in the mirror, I looked like Finny... I was soon allowed to visit Finny. He says all he remembered was, "something jiggled and I fell over. I remember I turned around and looked at you, it was like I had all the time in the world. I thought I could reach out and get a hold of you" pg 57. The first thing that ran through my mind when he said that is that he wanted to drag me down with him! That little decieving jerk! Of course, though, that's not what he meant. What he meant was so that he wouldn't fall. I need to stop thinking like this. I need to stop thinking that Finny's just out to get me.
