bandanna QUOTES

1 " Seeing your mother naked is not something you easily recover from. Seeing your mother naked and jumping from one side of a king-sized bed to the other with a nurse's hat on while your father, who is also naked, is chasing her with a bandanna around his neck, is reason to put yourself up for adoption. "

2 " I’ll leave you guys to get acquainted. Somebody show Leo to dinner when it’s time?”
“I got it,” one of the girls said. Nyssa, Leo remembered. She wore camo pants, a tank top that showed off her buff arms, and a red bandanna over her mop of dark hair. Except for the smiley-face Band-Aid on her chin, she looked like one of those female action heroes, like any second she was going to grab a machine gun and start mowing down evil aliens.
“Cool,” Leo said. “I always wanted a sister who could beat me up. "

3 " I'll never let it happen. I'll do everything in my power to keep my sister at home." I don't want to have a civilized discussion. My parents want to send my sister to a facility behind my back and my head feels like it's about to split open. Leave me alone, okay?" Something is sticking out of my pocket. It's Alex's bandanna.

Do I even know how to be real?I clutch the bandanna to my chest.And I allow myself to cry. "

4 " I catch sight of Luis with one of my bandannas on his head and my gut tightens. I yank it off him. " Don't ever touch this, Luis." " Why not?" he asks, his deep brown eyes all innocent.To Luis, it's a bandanna. To me, it's a symbol of what is and will never be. How the hell am I supposed to explain it to an eleven-year-old kid? He knows what I am. It's no secret the bandanna has the Latino Blood colors on it. Payback and revenge got me in and now there's no way out. But I'll die before I let one of my brothers get sucked in.I ball the bandanna in my fist. " Luis, don't touch my shit. Especially my Blood stuff." " I like red and black." That's the last thing I need to hear. " If I ever catch you wearin' it again, you'll be sportin' black and blue," I tell him. " Got it, little brother?" He shrugs. " Yeah. I got it. "
