WE
TALK
NO
MORE
of
Christian
Grey
that
evening
,
much
to
my
relief
.
Once
we
ve
eaten
,
I
m
able
to
sit
at
the
dining
table
with
Kate
and
,
while
she
works
on
her
article
,
I
work
on
my
essay
on
Tess
of
the
d
Urbervilles
.
Damn
,
that
woman
was
in
the
wrong
place
at
the
wrong
time
in
the
wrong
century
.
By
the
time
I
finish
,
it
s
midnight
,
and
Kate
has
long
since
gone
to
bed
.
I
make
my
way
to
my
room
,
exhausted
,
but
pleased
that
I
ve
accomplished
so
much
for
a
Monday
.
242
I
curl
up
in
my
white
iron
bed
,
wrap
my
mother
s
quilt
around
me
,
close
my
eyes
,
and
I
m
instantly
asleep
.
That
night
I
dream
of
dark
places
,
bleak
,
cold
white
floors
,
and
gray
eyes
.
243
FOR
THE
REST
OF
the
week
,
I
throw
myself
into
my
studies
and
my
job
at
Clayton
s
.
Kate
is
busy
,
too
,
compiling
her
last
edition
of
the
student
newspaper
before
she
has
to
relinquish
it
to
the
new
editor
while
also
cramming
for
her
finals
.
By
Wednesday
,
she
s
much
better
,
and
I
no
longer
have
to
endure
the
sight
of
her
pink
-
flannel
-
with
-
too
-
many
-
rabbits
PJs
.

I
call
my
mom
in
Georgia
to
check
on
her
,
but
also
so
she
can
wish
me
luck
on
my
final
exams
.
She
proceeds
to
tell
me
about
her
latest
venture
into
candlemaking
my
mother
is
all
about
new
business
ventures
.
Fundamentally
,
she
s
bored
and
wants
something
to
occupy
her
time
,
but
she
has
the
attention
span
of
a
goldfish
.
It
ll
be
something
new
next
week
.
She
worries
me
.
I
hope
she
hasn
t
mortgaged
the
house
to
finance
this
latest
scheme
.
And
I
hope
Bob
her
relatively
new
but
much
older
husband
is
keeping
an
eye
on
her
now
that
I
m
no
longer
there
.
He
does
seem
a
lot
more
grounded
than
Husband
Number
Three
.
245
How
are
things
with
you
,
Ana
?
246
For
a
moment
,
I
hesitate
,
and
I
have
Mom
s
full
attention
.
I
m
fine
.
247
Ana
?
Have
you
met
someone
?
Wow
how
does
she
do
that
?
The
excitement
in
her
voice
is
palpable
.

No
,
Mom
,
it
s
nothing
.
You
ll
be
the
first
to
know
if
I
do
.
249
Ana
,
you
really
need
to
get
out
more
,
honey
.
You
worry
me
.
250
Mom
,
I
m
fine
.
How
s
Bob
?
As
ever
,
distraction
is
the
best
policy
.
