Chapter 4 Summary
Mabel looks around at Hannah’s things to learn about her. She admires the colorful décor, the photographs of Hannah with friends, the quotes on her bulletin board, and the signed Broadway posters. Marin explains that Hannah is very kind, smart, and resilient. Mabel turns her attention to the only two personal things in Marin’s side of the room: a plant and two yellow ceramic bowls. Marin explains that she’s going to get more things soon, once she has a job. Mabel, newly concerned, realizes she doesn’t know if Marin has any money. Marin explains that her grandfather had already paid the first year’s tuition and had left her enough money to live on for a while if she’s careful.
Mabel asks Marin to come home with her and explains that her parents would like their home to be Marin’s home, too; she would continue to attend college in New York but would come home to California for breaks. Marin says she can’t and apologizes, but Mabel asks her to think about it for the next few days.
They go to the roof to look out over the campus and spot the groundskeeper, who waves at them.
