Part 3, Chapter 34 Summary: “Valentino”

Leaving the hospital, Valentino is afraid of how he might die. Orion tells him to “[l]ook alive” (181). Valentino responds that that’s a “pretty heartless” response, joking about Orion’s condition. Valentino asks when his heart problems began.

Orion recounts that his mom was in and out of the hospital all of the time when he was a kid, not realizing that he might inherit her disease. His first heart attack was shortly after his 16th birthday.

As they walk, they hear yelling and spot a group of people wearing skull masks as they hit car windows with baseball bats.
