If Only Chapter 32 Summary

Questions

  • In group, the kids interview each other about their lost parents. Corinna's question is whether or not she ever gets mad at her mom for dying, and she says she does, even though she knows it wasn't Sophie's fault.
  • The question she asks is, "Have you ever had a strange feeling when you ate something?" Yasmine says yes, string beans, which for some reason, Corinna finds funny.
  • Joci calls to ask why Corinna never calls her anymore, but Corinna gets defensive and says she does.
  • Joci tells Corinna she didn't steal the bracelet.
  • California time. They have a good visit with Aunt Jennifer, who makes Corinna a chocolate cake.
  • However, Corinna overhears her dad and Aunt Jennifer talking about how much they miss her mom, and it makes her really sad. Her dad says he'll never love anyone the way he loved Sophie.
  • She worries again that he'll die of cancer, too, and does some Googling to find out about her own risk.
  • Back home, Corinna spends a long time writing in her journal about it all; she just can't get her dad's conversation with Aunt Jennifer out of her head.
