Bicentennial Section 4

The Section 4 part of Bicentennial is about how the boy was being taken care of by the nuns. Originally when his babysitter died he would pay respect to him, by visiting a lilac that his family planted to honor him. When he was with the nuns, they would care for him by showing acts of kindness. Such as giving him toys, to play with. Kindness seemed to be the main point of this section because it is used three times. it was the nuns code as said "Had a distinct folk, flare, and kindness Radiated from the mousy students, almost as though it was part of their code?" (paragraph 3 line 4). These are the three main ways kindness was used in this section. by his babysitter watching him play, in the chapel that had it coming from the students, and then the nuns. by him being shown kindness through the section he eventually seems to understand kindness as part of what he was taught when he was younger while growing up around nuns.
