Reha looks forward to Wednesday afternoon when she can go to Rachel’s house after school and escape the new routine of her life. They still listen to pop music, but Reha does not feel like dancing anymore.
Reha’s classmates and teachers are kind to her. They ask her how Amma is, and Reha lies, saying she is “Better. / Good” (165). One day after school, Pete’s mother asks Reha’s father if Reha wants to come over to their house every day after school. Reha and her father are both relieved; this arrangement will provide a much-needed break for both of them.
In the afternoons after school, Reha goes to Pete’s house. His mother makes them snacks, and Reha meets Penelope, Pete’s older sister. Reha decides that Penelope is a hero’s name, and the two girls get along well.
