After I have read the 6. Chapter

At the beginning Alex does not know what to say. But when Tom makes jokes Alex becomes angry inside because Tom talks if nothing had been happened. Alex have to show his emotions and he cries to Tom. He tells him all about his feelings, that Tom had left him and his Mom and that he never wrote a postcard at Christmas. Tom feels sorry, he thougt that Alex would hate him and would not like to contact him. after taht he does not talk so much to Tom but at Queensland they have a wonderfull time and get friends. I was right, I thought that Alex wants to speak about his feelings and after that they talk about normal things. I did not think that they would get friend but they do: P.36 l.25: Alex felt that he lost a father but get a friend.
