Appleton Best Quotes

Cyrus’s father looked at his son. “Is that true?” Cyrus wouldn’t look at his dad, or anyone else. It was hard to look tough when you’re being held in someone’s arms, but he did his best to pull it off, even crossing beefy arms across his chest. “Cyrus, I asked you a question, don’t make me ask twice.” “Yes,” he finally said, very sullen. “I don’t know what got into him, but I’m sorry.” Kevin Appleton said, “When Becky does something wrong she does her own apologizing.” Cyrus’s father glared at Appleton, but he said, “Apologize to the little girl, Cyrus.” “I didn’t mean to hurt her. I wanted to hurt him!” He pointed his own dramatic finger at Matthew. “Matthew didn’t start the fight, Cyrus, you did.
