Walter now in high school is placed in Special Placement classes which is advanced classes. Since Walter is getting older he needs more clothes but his family is currently in poverty. Walter had to get a part time job so he can get clothes and give money to his mother. Walter's mother got a gambling addiction and Walter gave her money so she can save for him. Ultimately she wasted it on the lottery. Walter wanted a typewriter but his mother gambled the money way and he wanted to be a writer.
Throughout the book Walter says he wants to be writer but he doesn't want to tell anyone because he's embarrassed. Walter reads and writes in private because he thought reading and writing was wasn't masculine. Walter wanted to be viewed as a masculine person and couldn't be seen writing or reading. He aspired to be a writer and in the end he did.
