RL.68.3 conflict

Fausto turned off the television set and walked outside, wondering how he could get enough money to buy a guitar.

Fausto decided to mow lawns to earn money, and was pushing the mow down

the street before he realized it was winter and no one would hire him.

He would say he had found Roger near the freeway. That would scare the daylights out of the owners, who would be so happy that they would probably give him a reward. He felt bad about lying, but the dog was loose.

Fausto looked at the bill and knew he was in trouble. Not with these nice folks or with his parents but with himself. How could he have been so deceitful?

When Father Jerry began by saying that we are all sinners, Fausto thought he looked right at him. Could he know?

Instead of asking for the guitar, he waited for his mother to offer it to him. And she did, while gathering the dishes

from the table.
