LET´S OBSERVE AND READ

Activity 2: It´s time to read and keep familiarizing with the chapters of the literary work “The fault in
our stars” read carefully the extract and pay attention to the details.
THE FAULT IN OUR STARS – EXTRACT 4
Mom asked, “Do you want to see Augustus?”

“I guess,” I said after a minute. I stood up and shuffled over to one of the molded
plastic chairs against the wall, tucking my tank beneath the chair. It wore me out.
Dad came back with Augustus a few minutes later. His hair was messy, sweeping
down over his forehead. He lit up with a real Augustus Waters Goofy Smile when he
saw me, and I couldn’t help but smile back. He sat down in the blue faux-leather
recliner next to my chair. He leaned in toward me, seemingly incapable of stifling the
smile.
Mom and Dad left us alone, which felt awkward. I worked hard to meet his eyes, even
though they were the kind of pretty that’s hard to look at.
“I missed you,” Augustus said.
My voice was smaller than I wanted it to be.
“Thanks for not trying to see me when I looked like hell.”
“To be fair, you still look pretty bad.”
I laughed. “I missed you, too. I just don’t want you to see . . . all this. I just want, like . .
. It doesn’t matter. You don’t always get what you want.”
“Is that so?” he asked. “I’d always thought the world was a wish-granting factory.”
“Turns out that is not the case,” I said. He was so beautiful. He reached for my hand
but I shook my head. “No,” I said quietly. “If we’re gonna hang out, it has to be, like,
not that.”
“Okay,” he said. “Well, I have good news and bad news on the wish-granting front.”
“Okay?” I said.
“The bad news is that we obviously can’t go to Amsterdam until you’re better. The
Genies will, however, work their famous magic when you’re
well enough.”
“That’s the good news?”
“No, the good news is that while you were sleeping, Peter Van
Houten shared a bit more of his brilliant brain with us.”
He reached for my hand again, but this time to slip into it a
heavily folded sheet of stationery on the letterhead of Peter
Van Houten, Novelist Emeritus.
