. if she ever needs it and asks you for help with the boys . or even if she doesn't ask you , please will you do it .?"
i put down the letter , picked up my bag , and got to my feet ." why didn't you tell me about this ? i know , i hurt you beyond words , but you should have told me ."
rose's respone was everything easier to bear ."
" yes , i suppose it would . but i wasn't tinking about you , minty ."
so rose had taken her revenge on me with her silence . and i could have expected no better and no less .
my head swam , and i wanted very badly to go home . i managed to say ." i never loved him properly . truly , probably . i was weeping openly ." it's in the letter ."
rose folded loving nathan the way he wanted . it was inevitable . there was no other way of surviving ."
we looked at each other . in that exchange lay past , which we had shared , mourned , and regretted . she picked up the padded envelope ." one more things . he asked theo to send this to me . i think it is a diary of sorts . i haven't read it , minty . or only a little bit . i couldn't . i think you should take it .'"
she placed the evelop[e in my hands , and i peered inside . it was the missing notebook .
that too had gone to rose .
the hardest thing of all to govern is the heart , and i had finally understood that i could not blame nathan for struggle with his . if one's own nature and impulses are unfathomable .then to read into other minds to make sense of the rage , passion , and loyaltis that he within them is impossible .
in our separate ways , rose , nathan , and i had cheated one another and in doing so , cheated ourselves ." i must try harder rose . to make something out of this ," i said .
"yes ," she said ." yes, we must ."
on my return home , the boys , who had been watching for me at the window , ran out to fgreet me . i scooped them up and hustled them inside . i closed thre front door , leaned against it . and breathed in deeply .
