One thing that really caught my attention, and struck a nerve, was how creepy and controlling Roy was. What was even worse was when he would be so creepy in front of Toby. From pg. 14-15 we found out Roy would follow Toby's mother - with Toby. Eventually Toby's mother left work early to go shopping, and of course Roy was watching and got upset and angry at the fact that she "lied" even though she has no obligation to tell him anything considering he's a creep. Soon after, when they got home, Toby was put in the middle of a short, but not sweet, argument. "Roy smiled at me, and I gave in. I smiled back" was what Toby explained of the situation; he basically took Roy's side (16). This is what Toby was explaining earlier in the page, that if he had winked back or given any acknowledgement of what Roy was about to do - was doing - he would have taken Roy's side.
We know they get away from Roy, but I hope this happens sooner rather than later.
