The ones that say “I” in the sentence are first person and the ones that use names are third person
Hi, This is actually one of my favorite novels! I prefer to work through this question with you-- it'll build your comprehension of the novel and its themes. I want you to consider the arc of their friendship-- how did it start? What was their relationship at first? What initially tied them together? Once we get through that starting point, we can trace how their friendship affected them.
Indicative
this is what the word “were” is, I asked my Onii-Chan lol hope this helps you ☁︎☀︎☁︎
