Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Maks and Willa are unsure whether Donck can help them. Willa says he is quite ill saying her mom has similar symptoms at the end. She tells Maks Agnes has the same sickness, but Maks is in denial, saying she does not cough as much as Donck and his parents are saving money to send her to a doctor. Willa asks to stop by her alley to pick up something. It is still filled with garbage but otherwise empty. She scales the fence and returns carrying a blue box and a tattered porcelain doll. As they turn to leave the alley, Bruno blocks their way, hurling insults and taunting Maks for being with Willa. He does not attack but tells them that he and his gang will be coming for them soon. His threats are violent and murderous, but he is chuckling. He vanishes, leaving Maks and Willa shaking. They agree that they will never be rid of him, and Maks suggests maybe Willa does not want to return home with him. He does not want her to get mixed up in all his problems. Willa is worried she has dirtied her new dress and that Mama will be angry.
