Main Idea about "Something like Fate"

Something like Fate
Author’s Note: This piece of writing is to show my understanding of Main Idea/ Theme. My goal with this piece of writing is to score an overall 10. But I also need a 9 in introductions. Overall this piece of writing will meet both of my goals.

You’re reading a book; do you know what the main idea of it is? Well in the book “Something like Fate” there are many main ideas about the book. Some of those main ideas are loss of friendship, relationships, and trust. All of these are things that you deal with every single day in one way or another.

When you think of trust what do you think of? Well when I think of it I think of not lying and being able to believe my friends and family when they tell me things. Throughout the book Lani has to deal with her best friend lying to her about pretty much everything. But that isn’t the way that it used to be. Before Erin left for her summer camp she was happily in a strong relationship with her boyfriend Jason. Erin would tell Lani everything about her and Jason, but when Erin left she made the mistake of telling Lani to hang out with Jason while she is gone because she knows how lonely Jason can get.

After that summer of Erin being gone at summer camp everything has changed. Erin doesn’t send letters to Lani anymore; she also isn’t telling Lani that Jason broke up with her. Lani doesn’t know why she won’t tell her because she already knows. And the reason why she knows is because Jason has now moved into Lani. Lani doesn’t know what to do she likes him but she could never hurt her best friend. Even though she deserves it because of how much she has been lying and keeping things from her. Lani decides to give Jason a try. When Erin got back to school after her summer camp she couldn’t believe her and sent out a massive email to everyone saying that Lani is a lying boyfriend stealer. After that summer Lani and Erin are no longer best friends.

Even though Erin is furious about Lani and Jason dating, Lani doesn’t care. She continues to date him and spend every second that she can with him. She thought that they had a perfect relationship. But it got complicated when Lani and Erin became friends again. Erin asked Lani if she could not see Jason anymore. Lani was completely crushed when Erin asked her that. Lani didn’t know what to do because she finally got her best friend back but in order to stay friends she has to stay away from Jason, her first love. In the end Erin finally realizes that she can’t keep them apart anymore because their love is just too strong to keep them separated.

In conclusion, I think that Erin made the right choice to not keep them apart any more. I mean she was destroying a perfect relationship. After that day when Erin watched Jason go up to Lani and kiss her and tell her that he loves her that’s when she realized that she couldn’t do this to them anymore. So, overall the main idea was to not stand in the way of something that could turn out to be a long lasting relationship. Don’t be jealous because someday everyone will find their soul mate.
