This chapter was oddly the least upsetting. I say oddly because he was separated from everyone, and it wasn't that upsetting. It was at first sad, but since they Beah didn't really describe it all that much it didn't affect me. I thought it was weird how he chose not to describe it. It seemed like he didn't care much. When he was alone though he shared stories from his past that showed he cared. He even cried a little and I thought it was really sad. I was surprised when he went out for a whole chapter about a wild pig. Also, I thought it was weird that he chose to leave everyone. He chose to be alone. Later, he complained because he was lonely. Thankfully, he found other people to travel with. It was kind of bitter sweet. It's bitter sweet because even though he found different people the reason he had to find different people is unfortunate. However, he was with this group of people for the rest of the section. He said it felt weird being with other people again. I was happy he actually stayed with someone for once. Considering he lost everyone except for one person, but then he left him. I felt bad that everyone feared them though. I know things will get worse, but I think his set up is good now, for the most part.
