I would describe Rey as determined, and anxious. I would describe him as determined because he is determined to prove that he is old enough and brave enough to jump. An example of his determination is, “I had to go through with this deal. I had to prove that I could belong to this group, could be a man.” This shows that even though Rey is nervous, he is determined to prove that he has what it takes to be able to hang out with his older cousin and friend. An example of him acting anxious is, “ ”Yeah- down there.” I forced a smile.” This shows how Rey acting anxious. He clearly is anxious or nervous to jump down from the tree.

In the story, “Jumping Tree”, the character Rey's thoughts might have been, You can do this- wait what if I die- Just believe in your self- wait this is a high tree- IM BEING WATCHED- (when he jumped off the tree). At the end of the story he was kinda glad he jumped. He got just the break he needed. I think his character traits are, anxious, I mean jumping off a VERY high tree might kinda sort of mean that he is brave. Anyway his other traits are, foolish, because being yourself is more important than faking to be brave. The other traits of Rey are, courageous, He is trying to be something he is not.
