Chapter Summaries & Analyses
On Friday morning, Denise starts learning to use crutches. Willa will visit in the afternoon, but Peter informs her he has a conference call and won’t be joining them. Willa is apprehensive about driving to the hospital by herself, so Peter relents and agrees to drive after the call.
Willa and Cheryl take Airplane for a long walk. Cheryl tells Willa about the neighbors. Dave, a private detective, investigates adultery. Dr. Ben sees mostly elderly patients. A gay couple, Barry and Richard, live on the corner. Cheryl is envious of her friends, Patty and Laurie, whose grandmother has a swimming pool and takes them to get their nails done. Cheryl asks if Willa would ever take her to get her nails done. It makes Willa happy that Cheryl sees her as a grandmother.
As they come back up Dorcas Road, they see Sir Joe. Cheryl excitedly greets him. When he introduces himself to Willa, she realizes his name is actually Sergio. He’s charming and doesn’t seem at all like an edgy biker. He has his own HVAC business. Cheryl clearly has a crush on him.
