They finally at least quit making fun of each other and he lets her in to see the shop considering the old man who owns the shop keeps weird hours. She learns that the “jerk” is in fact the same guy who has been checking out the library books. Upset she goes all out on him but the old man and his friends settle things.  The next day he shows up outside her class room at recess to tell her that he’s going to Italy to train to make violins. Soon after his departure she realizes that she doesn’t know what to do with her life. She decides to write a book about the strange cat figurine she saw in the shop. At the end of her school year she’s asleep in bed and goes to her window to see the boy sitting there on his bike. She goes outside to see him and they peddle off to watch the sun rise.
