Bruiser p. 127-136

Bruiser has disappeared from Bronte's life. When she heard the news, she was completely shocked. She was afraid that he was going to be sent away. Lucky for her, however, Bruiser and Cody were staying with an elderly couple, but they have been taking them out of school due to recomposing purposes. The only problem is, people at school have started spreading rumors. They say that the reason The Bruiser isn't in school is because he killed his uncle. They think he is really in jail and the school is being hush hush about it. Any intelligent person would know it isn't true, but there aren't many in a high school. Bronte decides that she needs to visit Brewster, so she finds his number and goes on her way.
