Ralph staye in his hut for a two days, and when he finaly came out he was skinnier and all he wanted to do was drink water and go back to sleep. Samneric came very morning noon and suppertime brought food in left it their and came back later to pick it up. But this one certain morning Mom came for a visit. She never came to visit unlesss you were seriously injured or dying.
"Ralph! You get out of tha bed! I know your upset bu theres no reason to lie in bed all day and have everyone else take care of you. yournt injured are you?! I know how bad you feel about umm...Piggy, but you didn't do anything wrong! you tried to prevent it. I have heard the storey and i know it was your fault,"she told him, "even if it was you regreted it. And now your regretting somene elses decision to kill. that isnt right its just not healthy," she told him what she thought. What everyone else thought. What was true.
"Oh but it was...How could it not be? If i only stayed on my own side off the island we'd still have Piggy. So dont you tell me it's not my fault! Because it is my fault no one besides mine! If i had just let Jack take over then piggy'd still be here!" Ralph yelld at her crying. fineally broke through. Maybe, just once, they'll undersand it from MY point of view. If only they had seen it.
"That is it! You are not going to lay around and get taken care of! It isnt fair to the rest of s to go out and work hard and hunt and pick food just to give it to you, while all the while you just lay around...Make up you mind Ralph. I don't wana make you leave...but i will if i have to."
Ralph looked at her stricken. Make me leave? He thought. But thats...thats practically murder. Hw could she do that to me? Maybe she's right, maybe I am being selfish about this whole thing. I mean all I have done in the last cuople days is lay around. "Oh I'm so sorry!" Ralph wailed, "will you forgive me?" "who wouldn't?" she replied, happy that he finaly saw the light, she thought.

"Hey-

"Whatcha' doin'?"
"Well...we wanted to know-
-if you would like to join us-
-in partaking in the first ever-
-cermony for the years we've been here-
- and how we'v improved the island."
"It's also to honor the ones lost on the island too."
"Sure. But...we have to have a big fire ok?" Ralph was joking but the twins nodded.
Ralph was excited to think of a ceromony. Finealy we can all relax...even if it is for only one night.
when pralh walked away Eric looked at Sam and said," partakeing???", and lsapped his head lightly. when Ralph turned around to wave and tel them he' see them tonight they were on the ground wrestling. For the first time in a a long while, Ralph laughed out loud.
