Bless Me Ultima: Chapter 12

In chapter twelve I was surprised and awed by the fact that Antonio is so young and he stood up to the crazy man (Tenorio). Antonio was scared yet he swallowed back his fear and stood up for someone he cared about and believed in deeply. It reminds me of a friend of mine and myself. My friend stood up for us when we were at competition and some girls were looking at us ugly, and she looked as if she were about to get in a fight. She actually almost did, but we were at the Sheriffs Academy so it wouldn't be wise of her. She had told us before that if anyone messed with her girls they messed with her no matter their size. I am very protective of my flutes in band and if I see anyone even looking at them ugly I start to get angry and have  honestly started stuff. This is what being in a family or caring for someone means, to me it means that you would risk anything to defend and stand up for who you care about. in other words you will stick up for them no matter what.
