Relationship between Adam and Amy during the Color Game

Before the Color Game Amy and Adam trusted each other. They have thought, that nobody could separate them. But during the came they notice, that it is possible.

They want to have the same color, so they could be together anymore. But they got Blue and Orange, so they aren't allowed to meet each other. They want to get the same color. Adam wants to be promoted and Amy wants to be demoted.

But now, when Amy got the blue armband, she wants to keep it. That is the first time, where Amy is unsure what to do. (cf. p.34 l.5)

Amy tells Adam that she wants to play the Game how it should. “I'm going to try to stay a blue.” (p.39 l.20) she says to Adam. She started stuttering.

Adam do not like to hear it but after all he accepts Amy's decision, but although he is not satisfied.

You can see there that Amy does not do what Adam wants her, as she did before the game. She got self-confidence so that she can tell Adam her opinion and her own decision.

During the game, there is a Halloween dance, where she wanted to go with Adam. (cf. p. 41 ll.28-29) But because of the color Game it does not work. Brian asks Amy to go with him, what makes Adam very jealous. ““Bug off” Adam exclaimed. “She's my girl, Brian!”” He does not want Amy to go with him, but he has to notice that he cannot do anything against it.

All in all you can say, that the relationship between Amy an Adam has changed fundamentally. Before the Game Adam was over Amy. She did what he wanted her to do. But during the Game Amy notices that she can say her own opinion, and that she can tell Adam what she thinks, even if he does not want to hear.
