Chapter Summaries & Analyses
When the limousine returns to the hotel, Patrick feels exhausted, disappointed with how the night went. He wanted to be the center of attention, or at least a source of entertainment, not the object of derision and criticism. He hopes to go right to bed, but Greg meets the returning bachelorettes in the lobby and asks Patrick to join him and Grant for a night cap to commemorate the bachelor party. Patrick gets them drinks at the bar and returns to the table to find Greg agitated and Grant asleep. Patrick asks what is wrong, and Greg tells him that he is nervous, asking if the children said anything to him on their trip about the wedding. Patrick realizes that Greg is lost when it comes to the kids, not knowing how they feel or will be impacted. Patrick suggests that he talk with them.
Patrick tells Greg that Grant and Maisie are scared of change in the family they’ve always known. They are worried that the traditions and lives they remember and honor surrounding Sara will be erased when Livia enters their family. When Greg insists that neither he or Livia want that to happen and that they will not lose him, Patrick reminds Greg that he disappeared to prepare for the wedding and that it is happening in Italy, on the other side of the world from their home.
