The Last Song pgs 58-67

In chapter six, Ronnie, get in a huge fight with her dad. Ronnies dad while she is out having fun running around the pier with her new found bad influence friends gets ambushed by officer Pete. Who goes up to Ronnie and tells her he is taking her home, however being stubborn of course Ronnie declines, only adding further complications until she finally lets him. Ronnie when she gets home explodes with fury, she yells and screams at her dad. Even at one point she tells her dad that she hates him, grabs a picture of her dad and her playing the piano and hurls it across the room hearing it shatter. Her father however, know exactly how to handle Ronnie, he simply says nothing but "I love you, your room is down the hall" rushing Ronnie with guilt for a few split seconds. Ronnie then goes back to being mad. Her dad was the only one out of both of the parents to actually enfore rules to Ronnie. She cannot just walk all over the dad like a doormat how she did with her mom. Ronnie soon realizes that he is going to enforce the rules however much she is going to rebel against them.
Also in this chapter Ronnie learns that not only is her room down the hall, but she has to share a room with her brother Jonah, every sisters worst nightmare. However, although she is seething with anger from her dads little stunt with the poliece she is still a somewhat sweet sister to Jonah. You can tell that DEEP DEEP down she does love Jonah and her father but for the moment showing that she loves them is the farthest thing she wants to do.
Although it is not something you want to read about your favorite character getting in a bad fight with her dad. It does show some interesting characteristics of the dad and how he sort of has the power to control Ronnie better than the mom did. I am enjoying the read so far and I am thinking that soon Ronnie and Will will encounter again - igniting their tension. (haha)
