Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Before Evelyn can gather herself, Celia comes in. Evelyn reveals what Ruby told her about Celia and kisses her. Suddenly, Celia breaks away and leaves. After a breath, Evelyn leaves to find Don. Eventually, she opens a door and sees him tucking in his shirt while a woman puts her shoes on. As she runs out, Don follows her to explain, but she loses him and finds Harry. Harry takes Evelyn to his house, “scared of what Don would do to” her (130). On the way, she tells him about Don’s infidelity and tentatively describes herself as “like” Harry.
The next day, when Harry drives Evelyn back to her home, Don is gone; he left her before she could leave him. Instead, Celia is there. After Harry leaves, Evelyn takes Celia’s hand and leads her inside. As Celia tries to explain herself, Evelyn interrupts her, assuring her that “there’s nothing wrong with” her (132). Evelyn reveals that she no longer loves Don because Celia is the only person she thinks about.
Evelyn and Celia live “chastely” together the next week at Celia’s apartment. Though they don’t kiss again, Evelyn finds herself wanting to touch her again. She allows herself to indulge in fantasies of Celia, suspecting it to go away on its own eventually.
