A shellfish is different from other fishes because it has a shell to protect it from other creatures
In Raymond's run, a short story by Toni Cade Bambara, Squeaky feels she has disappointed her mother because she doesn't act like every other girl, squeaky was not a fan of the Mayday activities that other girls her age loved doing, she was more interested in running, she loved running, however, her mother wanted her to be like other girls, but squeaky was never going to be like other girls, she was proud of what she did, and she wanted to show everyone who she was.
She was a bit worried about the fact that her mother was disappointed in her, she was hurt and isolated, but when she found Gretchen and Raymond who were also runners, she became happy, and was no longer worried about acting like a girl.
Conflict....resolution is the answer
