Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Several weeks have passed since the narrator’s first date with Josh, and the two are now planning to move in together. She meets Josh’s parents over dinner and finds them very nice, though she does notice that Josh’s mother visibly flinches every time she and Josh touch each other. The narrator also observes that Josh and his family are quite wealthy. In fact, Josh’s parents own the apartment she and Josh are moving into, and they’re going to let him live in it at no cost. As the narrator is packing up her things in Kimaya’s house, she asks Kimaya if she knows the difference between hunger and love. Kimaya rightly interprets this as the narrator expressing some doubt about moving, and she tells her that she doesn’t have to do anything that she doesn’t want to do or feel ready for. She also explains to the narrator that hunger is following someone else’s story, whereas love allows one to forge their own path.
Josh’s condo has everything the narrator could have imagined, including door service, but she does not feel comfortable in its lavishness. She admits that what finally prompted her to consider leaving was the toilet paper.
