Chapter Summaries & Analyses
During a work shift, Scarlett asks Halley to join her in the bathroom. Once inside, Scarlett shows Halley a positive pregnancy test. She begins pacing, stating that she only had sex once and does not know what she is going to do. The news that Scarlett has had sex is a revelation for Halley, and Scarlett explains that she never said anything because Michael died the next day. Halley assures her that everything is going to be okay. That evening, Scarlett and Halley sit with Marion at their kitchen table. Scarlett begins to cry and bursts out with the news that she is pregnant. Marion, reeling from this news, startles when the doorbell rings and tells Scarlett that they will have to talk about this later. Scarlett runs out of the room, slamming her bedroom door, and Marion goes to let Steve in. She asks him to wait for a minute, and she goes upstairs to talk to Scarlett.
