One Whole and Perfect Day Chapter 9 Summary

Clara Lee

  • Lonnie got a C on his paper. In normal student logic, this isn't really something to freak out about—you find out what the teacher was looking for and do better next time.
  • In Lonnie Logic, though, this is a major failure, and this only means one thing: It's time to quit school. Again.
  • Fortunately, Clara, who was in his tutorial and saw the whole debacle over his paper, intercepts him and tells him it's seriously nothing to worry about—that professor marks people down all the time.
  • Something about Clara really grabs Lonnie's attention, and he does something that's very un-Lonnie-like: He asks her out for coffee. When he's known her for two minutes. And, even more shockingly, Clara says yes.
