Journal #3 113-168

This is a section of the book where a lot of the conflict gets resolved but also new conflict arises. Christopher learns who killed the dog. It was his father, which horrified him and made him lose his trust completely. He also finds out his mother is still alive and reads a lot of the letters from her. She has moved to Londom with a man named Roger. I am assuming it is Mr.Shears but it does not say directly, it implies it with things like how Mr.Boone (Christopher's dad) used to spend a lot of time with Eileen, who we find out is Mrs.Shears. I am guessing Roger is Mr.Shears because Christopher's mother had an affair with Mr.Shears as well. Another part of the story that happens is Christopher runs away, he decides that his hime isn't safe enough anymore and for a night hides outside. The next day he starts thinking of where to go because he doesn't feel safe at home. After awhile he decides he will go stay with his mother. The problem with this is that she lives in London, so Christopher starts planning out how to get there. He decides on taking the train and starts making his way to the train station. After sitting at the train station for awhile he gets his ticket and goes on the train. While on the train a police officer catches up with him and tells him that his father is at the station and worried about him, as well that he will be bringing him to the station to see his father but then the train starts so they have to stay on it. In all this was a very intresting section with a lot of changes in the characters. Some going from the most trust worthy characters to the least.
