Reading Responce #7 (matched)

This last reading was so exciting! The government has already taken everyone artifacts and now Cassia is starting to question her life. Shes asking why Ky would be marked as an abomination and not be allowed to be her match. She wonders why the government controls what she eats, who she is matched to, when she exercises, her job, her words, and her freedom. Cassia feels distress and anger when she realizes that she has no control over her own life. The only other person in the world she can tell her problems to is Ky. Ky understands the control and internal term oil that the government and all the officials have and he shares these thoughts with Cassia. He also gives her a story written in cursive about his life.
On a less dramatic note, Cassia and Xander go on their first official outing. Its like a date but in reality they eat the same type of food she always does. The only difference is the place and the fact there is an official babysitting the pair. The intrusion demonstrates how controlling the government really is. The outing is pretty much miserable and Cassia can't help but think about Ky and try to enjoy herself.
 The government is societies ball and chain.
