Third Sign (UnControllable Behaviors) Pt. 2

The other part of the Novel that shows Lennie's emotional behaviours is when Curley and him were fighting.  When Curley started to fight with Lennie, he started off by just making fun of him.  Lennie chose not to react, but instead looked at George.  Curley got fed up with the fact that Lennie wasn't fighting back, so he decided to start punching Lennie.  This triggered Lennie's anger, but he didn't fight back, instead he deflected one of Curley's punches and squeezed on Curley's hand tighter and tighter.  He squeezed so hard he was destroying the bones within Curley's hand.  Although George and Candy tried to stop Lennie, Lennie could not control himself and couldn't let go.  Lennie's anger had taken him over which made him behave in a very violent manner.
