rule of the bone # 6

This "birthday" party for Bone turned into an excuse for Evening star to throw a crazy party. It seemed like everyone was havign a great time, the only problem was it wasn't a birthday party. Sure there was a sign and some balloons, but really that was all; no cake or candles. They put very little thought into making it for Bone. Its hard because he finally has a type of stable life with a family and he just wants a normal birthday party. The people care very little about his well being. He lives in an environment in which they just like to party and get high. On the outside, this is what Bone wants, but he is just a kid and wants a what kids his age want. Papa Doc is focused mainly on himself. He cares about his own stuff and is addicted to coke.
Evening Star put on a great party. There were tons of people there and everyone seemed to be havign a good time, but not Bone. I thought though that she would have at least made him a birthday cake or something. I think though that she has so many different personalities that she may be unpredictable and i am unsure of what she will do next. Its also hard because Bone is starting to get a real relationship with his dad. Now, Bone is actually creating expectations for him. He starts imagining his dad going up and saying this amazing speech, which is a farfetched fantasy. This party reveals that Morning Star and Papa Doc aren't ready to be parents because of their lack of care for Bone. Up until this point they have not had many responsbilities, but now they have to force themselves to.
