How does Delphine react to Pa having a girlfriend? Support your answer with evidence from the text.
I don't think Delphine is okay with Papa having a girl friend because he is too old to have one. Also he is not very well with girls at all as you seen in the past if you read One Crazy Summer. He is not the best with girls clearly and it shows in the text when Delphine was silent.
Delphine react to Pa by she was mad but at the same time she was kinda happy for pa because the text it said that she was quiet but she is not quite all the time.So maybe she was happy for Pa girlfriend and did out tell her.How i got that is Pa was mad because big ma had said Pa is sureing his life with a girly at the sometime she like pa got a girlfriend.Also she was disappoint because pa got a girl
Delphine reacts to Pa having a girlfriend by thinking that Pa is going to go to the movies Miss Marva Hendricks and him eating popcorn while he has his hand around Miss Marva Hendricks and Pa ignoring Big Ma, Delphine, Vonetta, and also Fern and spending more time with her and not them.
She isn’t happy about Pa’s girlfriend because she was sad at dinner because Pa was not at dinner.she did not trust Pa because he was over 30 years old she lost her oppetite
Pa has a girlfriend and delphine reacts by acting like she is happy for pa. but she wants pa to be with cecile and she doesn't want pa to have a girlfriend so she kinda wants both she wants pa to be happy but she wants him to be with cecile.
Ways Delphine reacted to pa having a girlfriend was in the book when Big Ma shouted that Pa has a girlfriend Pa explained and Delphine was not looking at him she was looking at the floor.another way is at dinner they were talking about Pa and Cecile and Delphine did not eat her desert.
i think thats Delphine is a little beet nervous because she is usually seeing her Pa without a girlfriend. And all snody and borde no whistling my girl.And that pap is wearing cologne
when he said he have a girlfriend Delphine look down under the table cuz she know it was her cuzen and she was shy to look at his girlfriend and the girl look at her and prabaly said hi to Delphine and she did’nt say noting.
Delphine doesn`t like that Pa has a girlfriend because Pa been acting real different lately to Delphine.Pa been wearing different colgne and Pa uses shaving cream that Delphine keeps smelling.Delphine is not happy because Pa keeps leaving for Marva Hendrix and not staying or talking with her.Pa keeps on humming the temptations which he never hums those kinda songs.
Delphine reacts by looking down at the floor being sad because she probably wanted Cecile and Pa to get back together because after Delphine and her sisters been with Cecile for a while Delphine kind of knows about Cecile and how she is .Also when Cecile went to go pick them up at the airport to bring them to her house she didn't really care about them that much but when she was dropping them off at the airport so that they could fly home they gave her a big hug and she gave them a hug back too.
I think Delphine reacts kind of selfish to Pa because Pa knows that the girls just left Oakland and he knows that the just got to know their mother and Delphine could probably want them to get back together but Pa all of the sudden went and found a new girlfriend so Delphine could have wanted to tell Pa about Cecile but she didn’t even get a chance to tell Pa about Cecile.
adelphine doesn't like that pa have a girlfriend now for some reason but pa keeps on saying thats a friend but she won't believe him and i think thats why delphine keeps on getting made and because she notice that he has cologne on and hes starting to act different a little and why delphine is made is because he keeps on leaving to be with marva
The way Delphine reacts was surprised. I can support my answer by looking back in the text and see where Delphine said that her Papa wa thirty- two and he was acting like teenager
At first pa didn't want to tell the girls that he didn't have a girlfriend. but then big ma told the 3 girls that pa had a girlfriend . and pa said i want you to meet her . and pa said her name is Miss Marva Hendrix’s. Fern was happy that pa had a girlfriend but delphine was not happy she might not want another mom.
My Darling daughters Delphine doesn’t take it that well because when pa told them Delphine didn’t respond and at dinner she wasn’t hungry. she was thinking about things like what would Cecile say or what does the lady look like. Happy St.Patricks Day!!!!!$
I think how Delphine reacted when she found out Pa had a girlfriend by worrying about him and she want to she how s he is like and she wants to see Pa because the girls had only been there only about a day and she wants to spend time with him.
i think Delphine didn't react good when she heard that Pa had a girlfriend.I think she didn’t have a good reaction because in the texts it says she didn’t say anything she just looked down and to me it sounds like she was happy with the fact that pa had a girlfriend
I think the author uses p.s. be eleven for the title because maybe she wanted it to be that way the author and in that chapter her mom says in the letter p.s. be eleven i think the author liked that.
