Summary
Andrew, already, could see a lot of his younger self in Olwen. She had hair so blond it was almost white, and an almost entirely blank look on her face. Her eyes were brown, too, though a much, much darker brown than Andrew and Aaron’s. Maybe Olwen got them from her mother. Andrew’s eyes, in the sunlight, sometimes looked more gold than brown, according to Neil’s disgustingly flattering words. Olwen’s were duller and darker, like maybe, at one point, they could have been the same as Andrew’s, but had been stained by the rottenness of humankind.

After practice one day, Nicky gets a call from a social worker, asking him if he is available to take in one more Minyard—a nine-year-old girl named Olwen, and Andrew and Aaron's half-sister. They take her in without hesitation. It doesn't take long for Andrew to realize he understands Olwen all too much, and Aaron is quickly terrified that he doesn't understand her enough. -

Summary
Alex was the most irritating person Andrew had ever met, with his easy compliance, stupid face, and suspiciously well-thought-out plan for running away after accidentally killing a rotten Soc, but Andrew kept finding himself by Alex’s side anyway.
-
Alex (or Abram—the secret name the boy whispered to Andrew one night) is the new kid at Andrew's school, and Andrew is partnered with him for an English project about The Outsiders: Andrew and Abram have to come up with a runaway plan that would work out better than Johnny and Pony's. They think the project is utterly pointless at first, but it turns out to be a lot more useful than they ever would have expected when, less than two months later, Andrew and Abram find themselves with blood on their hands.
