- sp332 6y agoSure, but that would describe someone with a different relationship. Knowing that they loved and trusted each other is important to the story.
- pksebben 6y agothe story specifically leaves trust as an ambiguous quantity in that relationship. she obviously doesn't trust him. so, not only are we left to ponder her nature, but his relationship to her. does he take her suggestion at face value, assuming goodwill on her part, or does he expect her jealousy?
- sp332 6y agoFor her part, maybe you're right. But we're told that he immediately went to the door that she indicated.
