Another POV

For the writing assignment on “The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time”, I wanted to write the scene from the father’s point of view. The scene I am going to choose is probably when his father was trying to confess to Christopher about killing the dog. My character looks more like a serious person, but feels guilty when he tries to hide some sort of facts from his son. His attitude toward the situation is way different from Christopher’s attitude. When we write the scene from the father’s perspective, we would know all the flashback stories already before he told it to Christopher. We would also read the mind of his father when he is trying to think hard on how to say what really happened to the dog and his mom. I think if we rewrite the scene from the father’s point of view, we can have a better clear idea of what his father’s motivation and thoughts were comparing to what Christopher’s description of his father. He was always suspicious what his father after he knew the “truth” about what happened to the dog. He has different logical thoughts from others, so it’s kind of hard for readers to really know what other characters might be thinking.
