"Don't joke with me about such a thing, boy!" I snapped.
"No! It's true. Look!" He waved the permission slip in front of my face.
This is when Maya has lost hope of going to the Spring Fling; especially after her father saw her, Daniel, Shannon, and David goofing off. Nurzhan had offered to try to persuade their father to let her go, and Maya doesn't think it will happen. Nurzhan comes back into her room after trying and she can't really believe that it happened. Her parents come into the room to confirm what Nurzhan has said; under the condition that Nurzhan goes as her chaperone.
This is one of the parts in the story that show how close Maya and Nurzhan are. They help each other out a lot; Maya helped Nurzhan out when he got into the fight with the boy; and Nurzhan helped Maya with this. I think this has something to do with the fact that they are new to the country and they have to work together to survive happily.

I think that that was an important time in the story and that that part might of been the climax. It is very important that Maya and Nurzhan have a strong relationship and try to help each other to achieve what they want. Another important time is when Maya sacrifices her gymnastics in order to help the family's income and take place of her mom. Maya becomes (overly?) tired and has a hard time concentrating on doing things.
I need some quotes and the page number
I need an actual quote this does not help at all I might even say its useless.
