The Lovely Bones Page #2

---

She's used up all the film we gave her for her birthday.

All of it!?

- All of it, every single one.

Susie...

- It's a crime to be creative in this family.

All alright, all right, what...

(What say we pay for one roll a month?)

One roll a month?

You realize by the time I see my photos,

I'm gonna be middle aged.

Look, we got her 24 rolls of film, right?

At 2.99 a piece to develop,

that's $71 and 76 cents.

I don't think we're being unfair...

- Oh Honey.

Are we?

- That's why I love you.

Please! Could you just,

not do that at breakfast?

Yes. OK. Whatever you say.

Eat your food, c'mon.

It doesn't have a siren, you moron -

it's a cement mixer.

Please don't call your brother a moron!

Buddy! The cement stays in the bowl, please.

It's not cement, it's my Oaties!

Ok...

- Off to school - come on, let's go!

Bye, Dad.

-Bye, Susie!

Susie!

What's that?

- That's your new hat, sweetie.

Wow mom, I thought you'd given up knitting.

Oh no, I'm still knitting.

You want me to make you one too?

Do you have your gloves with you?

Put them on please, young lady.

Susie! Susie - put your hat on!

It's cold!

Holiday! Inside!

Holiday! Come here boy!

Ya look a little ruly, Suse!

- Shut up.

No really -

it looks good on you!

This is an exercise in humiliation.

Hey c'mon, we're late.

Othello. What is that?

Sounds like a myth.

That guy looked pretty stupid with the black make-up on.

Who?

- The one with two first names.

Lawrence Oliver.

- What a loser!

I know! - Clarissa!

- C'mon, let's go.

I'm talking to Susie.

Yeah, and I've been waiting for hours for your jerk-off film club to finish, and I wanna get out of this dump.

It's nice to see you too, Bryan.

Are you coming or not?

- Yeah, yeah...

See ya Susie.

Hey Susie

Hi, Ray.

- What did you think of the Moor?

Who?

Othello.

Well, well I just...

It was amazing.

Yeah, I mean - it was...

Really incredible!

I love that play

That's another thing we have in common.

What else do we have in common?

Don't you know?

Crap.

It's ok.

- Fine, I've got it.

Stupid books.

I don't even read them.

Susie, what are you doing Saturday?

Are you really from England?

Yes.

You are beautiful, Susie Salmon.

Forget it!

- This is obscene!

Are you listening to me!? There are no breasts on this anatomy model!

There are no eyes or mouth either.

But we were told to draw in the face.

Your unnecessary anatomical additions got the Ellis boy thoroughly boy over-excited.

He stole my drawing!

Yes! And now there are pictures of

naked women all over this school.

Move along people!

Sir, can I can have my drawing back?

- Certainly not.

Did you hear me Singh?

Go.

Meet me at the mall,
