How is victor’s relationship with a girl at the beginning of seventh grade different from the narrators relationship with a girl at the beginning of oranges? Can you please help!

In the story 'Seventh Grade', in the beginning of the story, Teressa does not seem to notice Victor which is different from the narrator's relationship with the girl in the poem 'Oranges.' The difference is that the narrator is on a date with the girl.

Explanation:

The short story 'Seventh Grade' and the poem 'Oranges' is authored by Gary Soto. Both the texts involves with the emotions and feelings in adolescence.

In the short story 'Seventh Grade', Victor, a seventh grader, is trying to impress a girl named Teressa and wants her to be his girl that year. He wants to build close friendship with her. This illustrates that in the beginning of the story, Teressa does not even notice Victor and they do not have any relationship between them.

Whereas in the poem 'Oranges', the narrator is on his way to a girl's house. The narrator, in the poem, is on his first date. Thus, the difference between the narrator's relationship with the girl and Victor's relationship with Teressa's in the beginning of the texts is that the narrator has already build a close friendship with the girl and is on his first date whereas Victor is trying to build close friendship withh Teressa.
