What makes Eugene the "one source of beauty and light" for the narrator is:

According to paragraph 9, the narrator was not rejected by Eugene. Quite the opposite, he was welcoming. He was shy and quiet, but she could tell he liked her. For a teenager living in a poor neighborhood, who is not popular at school, having Eugene as a friend  - her only friend - meant having "one source of beauty and light."

  • This question refers to an excerpt of "American History", by American author Judith Ortiz Cofer (1952-2016).
  • The narrator is the 14-year-old daughter of a Puerto Rican couple. Eugene is her neighbor who attends the same school, but different classes.
  • Life at school is not very enjoyable for the narrator. She is a straight-A student, but she does not have friends.
  • Meeting Eugene seems to be the best thing that could have happened to her. They are similar to each other, but different from others.
  • Their friendship makes life enjoyable for the narrator, and she describes Eugene as her "one source of beauty and light".
