Plot of I spy

lie Stowe, the main character, gets mocked by his schoolmates

at the County school, because he has never tried a cigarette at
his 12 in his life. One night he decides to have a smoke and
sneaks to the tobacconist's shop run by his father whom he
doesn't love.
His mother is sleeping and his father isn't supposed to be at
home. But when Charlie finds himself at the shop he hears
footfalls in the street. It is his father and two strangers. They
have a brief chat and then leave the shop. Charlie goes upstairs,
he is very frightened but the attitude to his father changed.
We can observe the structure of the text. The expositions of the
story include the description of that night and Charlie's family.
The climax happens when his father and two strangers have a
talk, particularly, on the phrase "Well...there's nothing to be
done about it, and I may as well have my smokes”.
It was said by Charlie's father and it is the most important
moment of the story, because here we see strong likeness
between the father and the boy: during boy's attempt to
“commit” a crime (to smoke a cigarette) he tries to encourage
himself with “grown-up” and childish exhortations and what is
interesting Charlie uses the same words to encourage himself in
the forth paragraph and his father saying phrase above also tries
to encourage himself.
