character's dreams

Walter: Walter’s dream is to own a liquor store and make his son have a better childhood then he had.
Page 33 “you see this liquor store we got on our minds cost seventy five thousand dollars…”
I don’t think Walter will get his dream to come true because seventy five thousand dollars is a lot of money.
Mama: Her dream is to own a nice house where everyone can have there own room and space.
Page 44 “been thinking that…two-story somewhere…”
Yes I think mama will eventually get her own house that is just for her family.
Bennie: Her dream is to become a doctor.
Page 36 “biology is the greatest…”
Yes I think Bennie will finish college and become a doctor because she has the push and drive to do it.
Ruth: I think Ruth’s dream is to move out of the home they are in and live on there own in a house.
Page 44 “Lord knows us… four houses by now…”
I don’t know if Ruth will get her dream to live in a house with jus Walter and Travis but she might get to live in a house with the whole family.
Joseph: I think his dream is for Bennie to make a decision to be with him or not.
Page 61 “how long does it to take for one to know what one feels…”
I think Joseph will eventually get his dream when Bennie is done with going to college.
