Hi Ecostasia,
This is a fantastic chapter. The chapter opens with a statement by the main character about the insecurity of life. This takes all the reader's attention and focuses it completely on the main character and the chapter. They will read on. This is a wonderful opening hook. The detail puts the reader all the way into the chapter. You have set up your main characters and plot very well for the reader. There is only one line of dialogue, and it is well done and realistic. The brother of the main character speaks like a real person. The chapter is well paced. It moves fast enough to keep all the reader's attention, yet it moves slowly enough to allow the reader to easily follow what is going on in the chapter. I did come across one structural issue that needs your attention:

1)In a few places you have neglected to begin sentences with a capital letter. You should remember to consistently do this to keep your writing clear for your reader.

The characterization is fully developed and believable. The chapter focuses on the main character, and they come across as a real person. Great job.
