It was the first night of summer for everyone. Susannah made her “special pot of spicy bouillabaisse” that they have the first night they all come together (Han 22). They all talked about the school year and if anything big happened. Jeremiah showed off his big scar to Belly that he got from football. Conrad suggested to show the whole table instead of just Belly. Steven asked Conrad how football went for him but Jeremiah interrupted saying Conrad had quit. This was very shocking to Belly and Steven because he was very good at it. I think Jeremiah likes Belly because he only showed his scar to her instead of the whole table until Conrad called him out on it.
