Hazel and Agustus had agreed to be
just friends but since they now they are going to Amsterdam things are changing
and their love is coming back. They go together to see the city as if it were a
date, and they are falling harder for each other. Hazel and Agustus meet Peter
Van Houten but he behaves very rude and they find out it was never him who
answered their letters, it was his secretary trying to be nice. They both are
very mad and upset about him because they really thought he was different, so
they just continue their trip as planned and ignored him. Agustus tells Hazel
his Cancer is back and it is all over his body so he will die soon.
This image means "Life is
unfair" and that is what I thought when Agustus told Hazel he has cancer
all over his body.
"It's a metaphor, I explained. "He puts
the killing thing in his mouth but doesn't give it the power to kill him."
(Green 146)
This quote shows that Agustus is a very intelligent
person and Hazel is too because she understands him a lot. In this quote Hazel
is explaining Agustus' metaphor to why he put a cigarette in his mouth but
never lights it.They both understand each other so well and that makes them
perfect for each other. This quote also shows that they are very
poetic and their life is full on metaphors which makes it more interesting.
"He smiled. Gallows humor . "I'm on a
roller coaster that only goes up," he said. (Green 218)
This is what Agustus told Hazel after he gave her
the news that his body was full of cancer again. It shows a lot of Agustus' personality
and shows his positivity and courage. I can see how even if he knows he will
die soon he wants to enjoy life. Agustus is aware that the time he has alive is
very short but he wants to live it with positive vibes. All these good energy
is also transfered to Hazel which makes her be stronger.
To be honest I was not expecting everything that
happened at the end of these chapters. When I started reading them I thought
everything was getting only better and it was never going to get worse again.
It was all full of happiness because everything was perfect between Hazel and
Agustus but at the end everything gets destroyed. I am not really looking
forward to what will happen because now I have clear that Agustus will die.
