Malu Conflict

In my book the main conflict with our main character Malu must deal with having to leave her home to move to a different place. she had no say in it so she was upset about it. but the main conflict is how she has to deal with the new school, she knows no one and is alone. she also has to adjust two completely new surroundings she has no idea where she is or where anything is.On the first day of school she gets in trouble for trying to express herself and she gets bullied because of her appearance.

the proof of this is on page 66 chapter 8. when some of the more popular girls in her class tell her that the best thing she could do is wash her makeup off.Not only that but they tell her that if she keeps being a freak she'll end up at the weirdos table. not only this but earlier when we was in her homeroom the teacher told her that she has to take off her makeup. Consequently, she was embarrassed because she didn't feel welcome.
Luckily, Knows how to defend himself and she retaliates by saying that she'd rather be there then.
As this happened later on in chapter 8, we learned she is a tough cookie in the pre dating chapters. some of the traits she presents are being defensive, as she defends herself to the bullies. And she tries to defend her case when her mom is telling her she has to leave( her case being that she doesn't want to leave.) She argues quite well,i'm sure she’d be great on the debate team. Another trait we see in her is that, she is Fixated on her Previous living arrangements. She had to move cross country from Miami to Chicago. When she didn't want to move. And she begrudgingly did anything the first few days she got there. because of this it shows she is Quite
stubborn.
