Flyboy and Mercedes. Flyboy appears to be poor in the story where he has mentioned not having a home. In contrast, Mercedes appears to be wealthy where she has boasted about her father giving her gifts. As they arrive at the toy store, Flyboy pointed out a toy sailboat that costs over $1,100. In this scenario, Mercedes begin to boast once again about her father’s financial gift on spending things for his daughter, “might buy it for her.” Flyboy, on another hand, doesn’t have many expressions, yet is aware of how everything is expensive in the store. This gives readers a gist of Flyboy’s character as a modest character when it comes to money.
