Tension In Confetti Girl

Sometimes it might not seem like our parents care, but they do, they just want the best for us in life. Authors often use tension in a story for the readers to want more. Even when we think that our parents don't like us, or don't pay us enough attention, only cares about their job , whether it be a teacher or in school as they are in the passages, they are just doing what they think is right even when you disagree. In “ Tortilla Sun “ and “ Confetti Girl “, they both use tension and a sense of hopelessness, towards their parent. In “ Confetti Girl “ by Jennifer Cervantes and “ Tortilla Sun “ by Dina Lopez, both authors show tension and anger and hopelessness through the passages by the narrator's expressing their feelings about the situation.
