Perks Of Being A Wallflower: Final Journal Entry

(Pg 183-213) Today, it started on the day before Graduation Day, where Charlie's brother comes back from college to see his sister graduate. Charlie brings up how he met a sports newscaster at the park where he talked about his brother which made his brother & his dad happy. Then, Charlie and his entire family go to the graduation to see Charlie's sister, Sam, Patrick, Alice, Mary Elizabeth, & Brad graduate. After the graduation, Charlie would get a call from Sam to go to a dance club to meet up, but Charlie's dad told him that he couldn't leave until his relatives left. After all of his relatives left, Charlie would meet up with all of his friends (especially Sam & Patrick) at the dance club where they left to a party at Sam & Patrick's house. The party kept going until it was just Sam & Charlie. They would go to Sam's room where Sam would get mad at him about how he was never himself and that he was always a shoulder to cry on who just listens instead of an actual friend who helps his friends during hard troubles and looks out for himself too instead of putting his friends before him. Then, Charlie would kiss Sam, who would kiss him back, and then things would start to escalate fast until Sam touched Charlie's thigh which made him pause for a second letting Sam think that he wasn't ready yet ending the night. The Next Day, Charlie would say his goodbye to Sam where they promised to call each other when ever they were feeling bad. Afterwards, Charlie would start feel bad & panicky, just like the night before, things got so bad that he ended up in a hospital for 2 months. Then, it was revealed that Aunt Helen used to molest Charlie when he was younger. During his time in the hospital, Charlie would get many visitors who tried to cheer him up. After he was released from the hospital, Charlie got a call from Sam where she said that she was gonna pick him up in her pick up truck to go through the tunnel with Patrick and her. Then, Charlie would get in the trunk, while the truck was still moving, where he would lift his arms in the air where he would feel "infinite". Then Charlie would state that this might be his last letter so he promised that he would always be fine and that when ever he wasn't he would soon be ok and hopes for the thing for who ever is reading the letters.
