Quotation

" but I can't apologize for falling in love with Sam, because he is the second best thing that ever happened to me, right after you" (Douglas 155)

Reaction

The message that i can get from this qoute is that love conquers all. I agree with the quote because when you love someone, you just live in the moment. You don't worry about what is going to happen in the long run. I think that her mother did her for apologizing to claudia for for she did, because it shows that she cares about her daughter's feelings.
