(Outside Reading #2) The A-List Chapters 3-4

In chapter 3 of the A-List by Zoey Dean, Anna returns home to stay with her father. He said he was supposed to pick her up from the airport which didn't happen. His driver told Anna that he was unavoidably detained. Then her father agreed to meet her for lunch since he couldn't make it to the airport but he never showed up and she ended up sitting there for 40 minutes until his driver finally picked her up. His excuse this time was he had an investor's call from Hawaii. Dean quotes Anna, "An ache clenched Anna's throat. Her father kept sending people for her but somehow couldn't manage to show up himself" (Dean 30). I would personally hate to be in her postition. For my father to always be so busy that he couldn't even spend an hour with me would make me so mad. I bet she feels like her father really doesn't care for her that much and she isn't worth his time. I think family is the most important and especially because she hasn't seen her father in over a year it would be important for them to spend some time together.
